tuning into ABC news breakfast because reasons. LOTO Dutton has chosen to make education a hyperpartisan “battleground”.
Mr Dutton is looking at importing US-style “culture wars” in schools as Cam Wilson pointed out in Crikey, says Prof Arvanitakis. #ABC24
yet these strategies failed at the last election. Schools do need support, empowering teachers is important, but this sense of “outside forces” bringing culture wars into the classroom does not do that, says Arvanitakis #ABC24
notes that Dutton deploys “forgotten Australians” when a more accurate term might be exhausted Australians or an exhausted majority. People are tired of the culture wars. He does not think the strategy is a winner for the Coalition, concludes Arvanitakis.
diversity and majority migrant population, as per the 2021 census findings released this week. We need a diverse workforce not only for economic reasons but for social and cultural reasons as well, says Arvanitakis. No we are not ending racism yet [paraphrased] #ABC24
one reason being this bloke, whose insights I always appreciate.

good morning from unceded Darug lands☀️this Sunday on #Insiders are Guardian politics corro Amy Remeikis, 9fax columnist and former Labor staffer Sean Kelly, and murdoch foreign affairs writer Greg Sheridan. The interview is with federal Treasurer Dr Jim Chalmers.
opening spiel: hopes fade of wage rises says Speers, based on a plea from the RBA governor, who spent the last seven years calling for wage rises and for the federal government to #RaiseTheRate. #Insiders
what Albanese is not saying - a specific wage rise beyond the 5+% for workers on the minimum wage - and where he is going - to patch up relations with France (not said: which were trashed by Scott Morrison) and to shake hands with Zelensky. #Insiders

heh. RN Breakfast is amplifying its conflict journalism aspirations on the flag and Senator Thorpe is schooling them on respectful conversation between herself and Senator Price and rejecting media framing of “Blak women against Blak women”.
yes, Senator Thorpe has invited Senator Price to the Black caucus, to be part of the work being done on missing and murdered Indigenous women, on the UNDRIP. Colonisation is ending, says Thorpe, and “we need to be talking about a republic going hand in hand with Treaty”.
conflict journalism framing so persistent here that one wonders whether the host has any other setting. Different approaches to different issues - in response to hundreds of Black deaths in custody - and Greens voters are texting RN complaining that the flag thing is “divisive”.

Gillard went to the backbench until the 2013 election. It is senior and disgraced Liberal Party losers who sulk, cause by-elections, threaten a minority government, lose previously safe seats etc - see Howard, Abbott, Turnbull, Frydenberg, Bishop, Porter.
Keating, Rudd and Gillard left the parliament after Labor lost government, and Labor retained those seats. Howard lost government and the Liberals lost the seat. Turnbull stormed out and the Liberals lost the seat. Abbott stayed and the Liberals lost the seat.
to clarify, there is an empty field of fucks I give about whether Morrison stays or leaves the parliament.
My gripe is with constant and consistent bothsidesing that elevates Liberal Party losers way above their pay grade. Its purpose is to [falsely] dominate legacy narratives.
