🧵1/ INDUE- Cashless Debit Card
"A card by any other name would control as much"
📺A video showing the both the Liberal & National party support for a nationwide Cashless Debit Card
📖A small thread to provide background/context for this crucial issue.
#Auspol #AlboForPM

2/ In 2007 (Liberal's Attempts 1.0) The Liberals pushed for a big bang approach, putting all government services onto one card. It was given the name the “Access Card”.
In 2016 (Liberal's Attempt 2.0) the creeping control began with the first trial of “Indue”

3/ The “Access Card” aimed to put all government services onto one card.
The legislation was created & tabled in parliament.
Imagine how easy it would be to privatise our social services if they are all on one system.

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

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.

1/ Beers, but has he considered the Bruises?
My 10c
The governments Women’s Budget Statement opens by saying Domestic Violence costs the economy $26 billion.
36% of partner homicide offenders were under the influence of alcohol.
Is the budget in a position to forgo $150M #Auspol

2/
The governments plan for addressing domestic violence explicitly says that it will rely on increasing the price of alcohol as a "PREVENTATIVE" measure.

3/ Alcohol Excise/Tax increases has consistently increased twice a year in line on CPI.
Making tweaks to specific categories for different time periods will invite elections to have 'cheaper alcohol' as a vote grabber.

1/ A report into the past reports.
Over 20 reports, from takforces, senate inquiries, consultancies and reviews.
The Royal Commission even reviewed all pastr reviews & reports
The 1st report was titled 'NEGLECT'
Our elderly don't need another report
#Election2022 #AgedCareCrises

2/
Just another ludicrous waste of money, waste of time and deadly delay.
The Senate committee completed yet another review into Aged Care work force issue. Then one year later the Liberals paid for another strategy on workforce issues.
It gets better...
#Auspol

3/
Just when you think this parody of a government couldn't get any more comical. Liberals create another grant that looks at the 2017 & 2018 reviewed and make a plan to do what was in those previous reviews. Naturally the plan hasn't resulted in any actions.

@CottonPru @AustralianLabor 1/ Here goes.
Vote No, they will be blasted as being anti religion, we know its not true but media wont care. Suddenly LNP own 'compassion, fairness etc.)
Vote Yes, The give fodder to other left wing people who will accuse labor of being anti LGTBI.

Now it gets curly.

@CottonPru

@CottonPru @AustralianLabor 2/
Labor has always supported the international covenant on civil and politicl rights.
As they say on pg 201 of the report.
So a No vote would see them labelled as hypocrites.
Particualry as state labor parties have done this years ago.

@CottonPru

@CottonPru @AustralianLabor 3/
Now we see the stitch up, the Libs put impossible timeframes of the inquiry, As highlighted below. If Libs were genuine the inquiry would've started 3 years ago. 71 days shows Libs are using religion as a wedge and a weapon.

Labor knows that the bill would get passed anyway.

1/ $3.5b tender for Job-Active contracts soon 2B awarded
Repeating the failed payment model from the 2nd fleet
The 2nd fleet paid on quantity & 40% arrived dead or soon 2 die.
Contracts move to quality, 'how many arrived in good health'
Add health oversight & only 1% died
#Auspol

2/ Here is the tender, the closing date in February 1. With the duraction being 3 years.
The majority of Jobactive contracts end on 30/06/22
This is the type of contract that makes an incoming government become stuck with the 'old way' of doing things and makes reform impossible.

3/ In 2015 the Jobactive outsourcing bean with $7.4B in contracts issued.The majority ($7.1b) Bexpire in June 30.
No budget has been published, however I am assuming it will be a bit over the current ~$1b per year, $3.5billion in total.
