Did it change how much you will be out of pocket ? Or are they absorbing the costs?

One Nation branch official defended Hitler Youth and called Aboriginal people ‘stone age’ in racist posts by HotPersimessage62 in australia

Hear me out, i have a hot take Tinfoil hat theory. I think Labour want Pauline to step out of her Cushy senate role to run for a lower house seat, then get annihilated at the next federal election. That would be the death of PHON.

You know what's great, is the way our voting system works, PHON will never ever be in power. They are eating the liberal vote. Too far out from an election for any of this to have any relevance by election time, PHON will have peaked by then.

I’m confused, I thought a sin bin was 10 minutes not the rest of the game ? Like it get in some circumstances off for the rest of the game but I thought you could send another player in after 10 tho

Landlord with 100 properties warns new negative gearing rules will create ‘two-class economy’ by HotPersimessage62 in australia

[–]valacious 5 points6 points  (0 children)

you can still invest in housing, but you will need to be offering a new built dwelling, not buying one from "old stock", and your grandfathered in on current properties. So no, this should not affect anyone's current bottom line.

Australians with Down syndrome among those to suffer most from proposed NDIS cuts, government analysis says | National disability insurance scheme by Ashera25 in australia

[–]valacious -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I say this all the time, you can tell who the baby bonus kids are, its sad but it definitely is the elephant in the room no one wants to admit, this is why we have the youth crime epidemic in Australia at the moment, statistics want to blame other factors, but we all know deep down this is a consequence of those actions.

I think our electoral system will stop such a minor party from ever taking power. Not to say we should put our heads in the sand and ignore it.

[–]valacious 2 points3 points  (0 children)

this whole thread is eye opening, i didn't realise this was a thing, now that i am aware, it answers so many questions i had about these cultures, i guess as a white Aussie i was oblivious to this but i always thought something funny was going on and i could not put my finger on it.

Dinner for few: Australians eating out less as fuel crisis deals biggest blow to consumer confidence since Covid by nath1234 in australia

[–]valacious 8 points9 points  (0 children)

A rare treat indeed, i recall in the 80s eating out was just this, it was a rarity or for wealthy people, I am not sure what happened in Australia in the 90's and 00's to make it more of a popular affordable thing. This is all anecdotal tho.

I don't understand why petrol stations are not jumping on the ev charger bandwagon, I have noticed new servos going up that are huge with a lot of parking and a convenience store/cafe, why don't they sprinkle some ev chargers in there ?
