The problem with Jess Wilson’s small-target strategy

The Liberals’ 36-year-old, first-time MP leader has left herself open to Labor attacks that she can’t stand the heat.

New next door neighbours are moving in today. Truck unable to get up the long steep driveway. Now unloading everything by hand. Trudging up and down the steep hill. They don't even have a trolley. Fucking hilarious. 😂

Good question. But I really do feel for the woman once married to him.

She seriously is loathed in Geelong. Her biggest mistake was before the last election admitting to her determination of cutting off funding for free TAFE and then having to say that the Gordon Institute was a valuable asset for Geelong. She is vile.

There is no political will to do any of this.

With the RBA lining up to whack mortgage holders again, here’s the far fairer way to take the heat out of the economy, and tackle inflation. We tax the 1% and rein in their spending on data centres and their obvious excess, don’t keep punching down on mortgage holders.
Out of control (private) spending In the past two years the economy has experienced a spending spree. But it's come from the private sector, as this graph from the Australian Bureau of Statistics highlights.

Structural deficits across governments to blame for inflation, not spending

I suspect she's beyond that. She knows exactly what she's doing and why. She's a paid performer for tricks. She knows she's lying, she knows there is zero evidence but she does it anyway Politicians like Sarah Henderson are the reason people loathe politicians

Hey @grok, how is it possible that there is nothing left of the Learjet that crashed in Florida today except for a relatively small crater?
