Important reminder on @abc730 last night that one of the reasons Australia’s aged care system is broken is the $1.2 billion cut Scott Morrison made as Treasurer. #auspol
Prime Minister Scott Morrison was responsible for cutting $1.2 billion from the sector in his first Budget as Treasurer. The $1.2 billion cut followed his $500 million cut from aged care in the 2015 MYEFO.
No matter how many times Scott Morrison angrily denies cutting funding, it is clear the decisions he made as Treasurer have led to the crisis in Australia’s aged care system.

Thread - please RT: For three months the Turnbull Government has deliberately delayed the release of the latest data on the number of older Australians waiting for home care. Today we've found out why. #auspol 1/4
The data has finally been released and revealed more than 108,000 older Australians are now waiting for care - this includes more than 88,000 older Australians waiting with high needs, many with dementia. 2/4
We've already learned that many of these older Australians are waiting more than two years for care and sadly with the number of people waiting for a home care package growing these wait times will only grow. 3/4

Of all the hoaxes perpetuated in the Turnbull Government’s unfair Budget, there are none as brazen as their aged care con. #auspol 1/8
Before the Budget we were told with great fanfare that aged care and older Australians would be the big winners from the Government’s ‘rivers of gold’. But here are the facts. 2/8
Fact 1. There is no new funding for aged care in the Budget – the Government won’t admit it, but over the forward estimates there has been virtually no change. 3/8

Last night, "prophetess" and "weather warrior" Kat Kerr commanded Tropical Storm Imelda not to cause any flooding in Texas. How is that working out?

Long thread >> Last night was a watershed moment for Australia and me. Until yesterday's election result I had great faith in the Australian people. Australia is my adopted country and I have been proud to call myself Australian. No longer. #auspol
Yesterday's result revealed Australians to be venal, greedy, cowardly, visionless and bigoted. Those focused only on their wallets, and doped on Murdoch's pap, won the day. They have sold out their children's and grandchildren's future for their own greed and comfort now. #auspol
The Boomers have said "I'm OK Jack, f*ck the future" The boomers have spoken and said "I'm only here for a short-time, I'd better make it a good time - My kids and grand-kids won't mind paying for it". #auspol

Covering the 24th week of the #GiletsJaunes protests against the corrupt Establishment, which will continue today despite the massive Police Brutality & Western Media Blackout designed to discourage & suppress them.

Macron Regime Forces use attack dogs for the first time, to intimidate #GiletsJaunes protesters in #Cambrai last night.

Macron's minor concessions will do nothing to address the endemic system of corruption in France.

#GiletsJaunes wave French Flags & chant "Resistance, Resistance", to protest in #Cambrai last night against Macron's disastrous Neoliberal Globalist policies & endemic system of corruption that only benefits the rich.

Vive La France!

Scott Morrison dismisses per capita recession as not being 'an economic term that any economist has any recognition of' and accuses Labor of making it up. #auspol
@AlanKohler explaining real GDP and per capita GDP. (Yes, he has the graphs). It's government spending and population growth that are keeping real GDP from going into the negative. Rest of the economy is down. That's the problem per capita highlights. #auspol
A smart PM wouldn't be talking about boats on Christmas Isle. He/she would grab that GDP measure, call his treasurer & officials in & work on turning the negatives into positives. Bam, foundation of your economic policy, take to election. Unfortunately, we have a Brick Wall PM.
