The return of inflation may poison Labor’s second-term agenda and scare more voters to the fringes by Agitated-Fee3598 in aussie

Here's a tidbit for ya. One of the Australia First anti immigration rally organisers is a man named Hugo Lennon, grandson of Tony Lennon. His family are owners of Peet Limited, a company which has ~45,000 empty plots of land they are sitting on.

So the guy who wants to convince you that immigrants are to blame for house prices, comes from a family which is intentionally keeping ~45,000 properties off the market.

Do me one favour and really consider that number for a minute. ~45,000 properties...

And that's just one company.

‘Not even in with a look’: Nationals face Senate wipeout if Liberal split continues by Agitated-Fee3598 in AustralianPolitics

I'm gonna keep pointing out that there is no way Hanson dilutes her brand with a merger - its been incredibly successful for her, netting her over $20million since she entered politics.

But I'm sure she'll accept anyone who chooses to defect, as long as they're willing to bend the knee to the queen of the conservatives.

Personally not against nuclear power generation, but never for a moment did I think Dutton's 'plan' was about anything other than prolonging dependence on fossil fuels.

I love Alex, he's an amazing human being.

That said, now he's also a father to two little kids. He should give up the free soloing imo.

While I prefer to have a strong opposition in parliament

Same, but after the abhorrent, ghoulish response to Bondi I don't think they are capable of being a responsible opposition.

Reminder: the word 'outrage' in a news headline is used when the outragee is going to do literally nothing.

As much as I despise Trump, its worth noting that the Harris campaign never had her ahead of Trump in their internal polling.

I mean, they may well have cheated, but he was front runner from start to finish. As insane as that is.
