You know what the marriage equality plebiscite did well?
It focused on THE issue of marriage equality
It didn’t branch off into expunging historical convictions, police brutality, employment discrimination or anything else.
It highlighted those things as REASONS to vote YES

Hey @AlboMP - looking at the disgusting Murdoch media beat-up on @DanielAndrewsMP - strong and caring leader Labor leader, and the wanton disregard for the truth on the #ABC - how can you not believe a #MurdochRoyalCommission is not needed? How far will you let it go? #auspol

Imagine how Daniel Andrews family is feeling tonight?
His wife has no doubt heard the speech...thinking of his kids, it's not right.
Today is a very bad day in Australian politics.
@AlboMP you really need to instigate a #MurdochRoyalCommission this shit has to end.

I've been sitting on a document, unsure what to do with it.
I've decided to share it today.
I'm not prone to exaggeration, but if this document is true, it throws doubt on the legitimacy of Victorian Liberal candidates, and the party by extension. #springst

So, after taking a deep breath this morning after seeing the Nine newspapers and the ABC continuing their deliberately provocative - and misleading - story about Medicare/bulk-billing rorting, I thought I might offer some observations. .../1

How does an infinitesimally tiny group in our society, the top 1%, attract mass support for policies that clearly benefit nobody except this tiny group? And how does it keep doing it, generation after generation? Graphic from ‘The Gilded Age’ in the US, 1870-1900. /1

Keynes put wages in centre of aggregate demand & healthy economy. Friedman said “no, individuals get paid according to their productivity. Leave it to markets. Govt’s rack off!” He neutralised distribution. Which matters a great deal at this historic inflation juncture. Why? 1/5
