Australians be wary about Albanese’s $67m wage subsidy for journalists at 3AW, Nine, Seven, the ABC & SBS. Don’t the last two already get taxpayer funding? Whatever media companies call it, this looks like a tax-payer funded 'pay for commentary' scheme. Labor being sneaky again.

Take That! 👊🏻She is 100% woman but Krystle Mitchell has bigger balls (figuratively speaking) than a lot of blokes I know.

There’ve been hundreds of stories about potholes on Victorian roads. But sometimes it takes just one tragedy like this to turn an election.

The hit-piece against @WarrenPHON_VIC published by @australian sensationally backfired. In a press conference that could have ended his career, Pickering walked tall, supported by his children. He spoke honestly & unscripted. Has the Aus unwittingly secured more seats for ON?

If the @australian intended to damage One Nation Victoria by writing hit-piece on @WarrenPHON_VIC , then it may have spectacularly backfired. Pickering’s very real and personal response with his kids has the potential to send waves of ‘on-the-fence’ battlers to One Nation.

Ben 'Dan Andrews v3.0' Carroll busted again! This time spending $600K on consultants to cook up new property taxes. 1: Property holding costs go up 2: Landlords sell up 3: Your rent goes up — again. This November ... Niddrie: VOTE BEN OUT Victoria: VOTE LABOR OUT

Here's how the Victorian Govt manages your money. 1: You give me $1000. 2: I spend your money. 3: If you don't have $1000 right now, I'll borrow it, 4: You pay it back — with interest. Lesson complete.

The attacks from Chalmers and Albanese on One Nation have become increasingly desperate. Yesterday they crossed a line. No matter how worried Jim and Albanese are about losing their jobs, telling Australians that their democratically elected opponents are “dangerous” and a “threat to our country” invites people to treat them as a threat. Words have consequences. That is how political violence is incited. The murder of Ann Widdecombe in Britain should be warning enough about the dangers of poisonous political rhetoric. Anthony Albanese says we need to turn down the heat and violent rhetoric in our political discourse. Meanwhile, he and his Treasurer are pouring petrol all over it. Australians are entitled to vote for One Nation without being told by the Treasurer and the Prime Minister that their democratic choice is a danger to the nation. The real danger is that Jim and Albanese's incompetent economic management will continue to push your rent, your mortgage and your bills even higher. The real danger to Jim and Albanese is that the people of Australia are coming for their government… at the ballot box.

Let the record show that during his time as minister for roads, deputy premier and now premier, Ben Carroll failed to maintain safe roads.
More than 500,000 potholes will be repaired under a major state government blitz funded by level crossing savings, as roads shape up to be a defining battleground for November’s state election. > bit.ly/4gYIrOp

Is the Dan Andrews statue dead? Almost 12 months ago, my Parliamentary petition to cancel the Dan Andrews statue was voted down by Labor and their usual boot-lickers. But I'll give Ben Carroll one credit if he melts the monstrosity down.

FACT! In Australia, there are people who go to extraordinary lengths explaining how Americans were stupid enough to vote for Donald Trump... then tell you they voted for Albo. 🤦‍♂️ #Trump #albo

Live Nation were behind ‘Vax The Nation’, which excluded unvaccinated music fans from segregated participating events in 2021. The artists and crews who participated and officials who allowed the event to proceed should reflect on their role in that exclusion.
