1/ Unemployment-The forgotten facts
If you have a job, but haven't worked because of illness, Injury or sick leave. You are still counted as employed.
We can see the extraordinary level of people connected to work, but not working in the chart below
#Auspol Scott Morrison has led the most wasteful, corrupt and incomp
2/ A massive increase in people who worked fewer hours because of illness, injury or sick leave
3/ Side by Side we can see the massive increase in both the zero hours and fewer hours cohort.
4/ More than just illness, the number of people who were stood down or worked fewer hours than usual is substantially higher than the Pre-COVID January.
#ScottyTheLiar
5/ Finally, using March 2020 as the base month we can see that the hours worked has dropped significantly while maintaining the similar employment level.
Summary: 100's of thousands worked far less than they usually do or did not work at all.

1/ Coalition 70 seat minority government
My thoughts on how Dutton has pitched & wedged his budget to take a 70 seat minority govt.
Salient points;
1. Screw renewables, he has no intention of getting greens voters.
2. Re-use existing power plant locations will upset no one.
2/
3. Migrants & Foreign investors don't vote, so no downside.
This is the same as Greens strategy of protesting against things in places they'll never win.
An example is Greens Anti-Adani risks nothing as they'll never take Capricornia or mining towns.

4. Emissions on RV's are perfect for Nationals electorates and reinforce the Greens/Labor coalition narrative News Corp/Liberal/National will keep driving home.

Compared to Paris agreement:
➡️Started in 2005 @ 621Mt
➡️Target 354Mt vs Now 459Mt
➡️Target 43%⬇️2005 vs Now = 25.4%
#Auspol #Renewables
The Australian Labor party are the only party in Australia that has a fully modelled plan for how Australia will reach the Paris Agreement target. The Greens have no modelling and the Liberals don't believe in climate change.

2014 - UNRWA discover rockets in school (2nd time)
2021 - What is a "possible tunnel"?

1/ My 10c on Rent Freeze Law -It's easy being Green.
The bill has no cost calculation or estimate.
It's inaccurate to describe the payment as being determined by the Minister. Obviously, the Minister can't determine that $1 is enough, so this section is logically impossible. Image
2/ Property Mgrs/Real-Estate companies will keep the fee while the landlords refund the tenants.
Landlords would need to refund money & redo their tax returns & may need to borrow money to finance the refunds. Image
3/ This will be a disincentive to improving the quality of the rental stock.
Landlords would not want the financial risk of capital improvements that are unable to be recouped.
Body Corporate improvements would become nearly impossible to resolve. Image

1/ Greens Hypocrisy Busted:
📷Right: Greens using a 1 in 2,000 year flood model to protest against 855 new homes in Max's wealthy electorate. 855 homes lower values?
📷Left: Greens omits the flood model (I've added it back) from their plan for a new school & some public housing. Max Chandler-Mather lying by omission. The Greens are the ultimate NIMBY party. The Greens use a 1 in 2000 year flood model to discredit the proposed development and then propose an alternative use of the site while not mentioning or showing any flood impacts.
2/This is how the Greens present their plan.

Using just a tiny pocket of land to build some public housing & creating hectares of parkland would increase home values. The Greens @Greens and Max Chandler-Mather posting an alternative plan for the Bulimba Barracks site without using the flood map he used to discredit the existing development proposal.
3/
Here are Max's Facebook posts protesting against development on the old army land.
He doesn't mention the flood model is for a 1 in 2,000-year flood on the old undrained army land. Lies by omission by Max Chandler-Mather and the Greens. Using the 1 in 2000 year flood model but making the reader believe it shows an actual flood.

1/ 🧵Vile Robodebt lies that live on.
If you’ve been told Labor started/pioneered/”laid the foundations” or in any way was involved with Robodebt you have been told a vile lie.
If you are posting this information, then you are lying.
This thread busts these absurd lies.
2/
NO, Data Matching was NOT started by Shorten/Plibersek & Data Matching is NOT Robodebt .
Data Matching has been undertaken for over 50 years.

The 1975/76 DSS Annual Report👇includes details of data matching for fraud detection.
3/
There is some evidence that parliament was using data matching in 1968. During a debate on conscription, this astute politician warned that the use of machines may apply harsh & substantial laws to an individual and destroy their rights.
