It’s more important that the Stage3 tax cuts are appropriate in today’s economic and social circumstances than to argue the toss over broken promises.

Pat Dodson was right. A NO vote in Voice referendum meant Nothing would be done . Confirmed by Productivity Commission damming report on closing gap -won’t close without changes in power structures. Silence from both sides since vote concerning.

Taylor on insiders-a complete policy vacuum . Gunna-we’re Gunna deliver a whole suite of policies before the next election to get the economy working again. Trust us, only the LNP can do this.

Dutton seizing on the recent boat arrivals on top of the release of detainees to channel his Trump-style negativity. However, he needs to be careful not to undermine our national security-it is a fine line.

Very sad to see Sen Patterson on SKY Sunday Agenda seeming to almost beg People smugglers to test the resolve of the Albanese govt on border security.

Hope Universities Accord is a major contest in run up to next election . University reform is a national priority-need substance to dominate politics in the public discourse.

Time for more fairness in Budget. Need a commitment to a forward timetable to increase jobseeker and youth allowance . Could be funded by restricting or abolishing negative gearing and capital gains tax concessions that conspicuously favour the wealthy .

What an irony Dutton Opposition demanding detail of CSIRO calculations of cost and timing disadvantages of Nuclear power having failed to provide any detail of their nuclear power strategy . What a joke . Their position is fanciful nonsense

Disturbing to see Taylor out in the media salivating over what he likes to call a household recession . Still no hint of what he would do about it.

Opposition decision to scrap the2030 emissions reduction target if elected , no surprise. Have been arguing that we will need nuclear power to meet our emissions targets but on the CSIRO evidence that couldn’t be installed by 2030. Read - they have no answer. Mugged by reality.

Opposition now claims to still be committed to Net Zero by 2050 intermediate targets are important as adjustment needs to be front-end loaded . Can’t wait to 2049 and hope to meet target.

Dutton claims a strategy to win back seats lost to Teals . Abandoning Paris Agreement with no effective climate policy is the gift that keeps giving -grossly irresponsible and against our national interests.

It’s good that Julian Assange is home. We are supposed to help our fellow Australians in need globally. Would be good to see the successful prosecution of those who have committed the war crimes he exposed.

Very concerning that early explanations for the Tories landslide loss in the UK include that they” were not conservative enough”,. A clear indication of just how out of touch they had become.

A disgrace. The opposition blocking the reform of the Reserve Bank as part of their silly political game claiming Chalmers is “at war” with the Bank -overriding the recommendations of an independent Review panel of experts . Grossly irresponsible-nothing constructive to offer.
