Saturday in Sydney #EnoughIsEnough #noviolencenohate #raisetherate #whatwereyouwearing

Vicki - Voted Yes & Still Masking 😷😷😷 🌹 @[email protected] 🌹 GrumpyOldDad.bsky.social Anthony Albanese Amanda Rishworth MP Jim Chalmers MP Bill Shorten There is no aspect of being that poverty improves. Violence happens across the spectrum but all bad things get worse with poverty #RaiseTheRate

Unpopular gals 🥖🌹 But we have no money to #raisetherate and isn’t it funny that Ukraine has a right to defend itself but Palestine doesn’t 🤔

Anthony Albanese Absolutely and 100% agree. So with that said, does this mean you will #raisetherate you will abolish partner asset checks to allow women to independently apply for financial support, that you will provide additional funding for shelters and accommodation for women fleeing DV etc?

I have been saying this for ages. It’s appalling that social services and housing providers think anyone on JobSeeker or a Pension can afford to live if they’re renting. They can add up and subtract and know the costs are too high. #RaiseTheRate Amanda Rishworth MP #auspol

I'm glad the PM's been brave enough to attend a rally he's at today. Maybe he can talk to the people protesting for Palestine outside his office someday soon? Or listen to today's rally and do something about enabling women to escape violence, like #RaiseTheRate since he IS pm

Anthony Albanese Yes, YOU MUST DO BETTER. Raise Centrelink payments to above the poverty line so women can afford to leave. So many women stay with their abusers as they have been cut off from family, friends & jobs. They NEED an option to leave. #RaiseTheRate this week. You CAN do it #auspol

Nailed it 👇 #auspol #raisetherate

Raising the rate of income support will INSTANTLY change things for couples who are at breaking point #RaiseTheRate

Poverty traps people in violent and abusive relationships.
If Rishworth was serious about domestic violence Labor would #RaiseTheRate - they would've done that on taking office.
Enough is enough? BS rhetoric.

Triple social security.
Double basic wages.
Bring back overtime rates, weekend rates, public holiday rates.

END the poverty of over 50% of the Australian population - who can't even afford adequate nutrition.

END landlords in parliament.

#RaiseTheRate

Jessica Mason🇭🇲 🟧 They’re scared of increasing JobSeeker to the point it is needed to raise to - the same as a single Pensioner, because it will affect the rate of the minimum wage and entitle someone on that to some payment of Social Security. This is why workers now live in tents! #RaiseTheRate

How good is the cost of living crisis Jim Chalmers MP?
#RaiseTheRate

'We can't fund every good idea'

Who asked for 'every good idea'? You've been asked to #raisetherate . Again. By your own committee. Do it!

Government ignores calls from its own experts to lift ‘seriously inadequate’ jobseeker rate theguardian.com/australia-news…

It does not seem to have occurred to the Minister for so-called Social Services that there is a simple way to reduce the need for financial counselling services:

#RaiseTheRate so we don't have nearly a million children in poverty. #inequality #auspol

nothing but piss weak propaganda from MPs who don’t give a shit about disabled people. if you gave a shit, you’d #raisetherate and stop needlessly torturing us with mutual obligations. you’d stop us being priced out of being alive.

The Political Context Enforcement Team melissa Dr Monique Ryan MP Very well said

#RaiseTheRate
End pointless mutual obligations

Free women from the trap of poverty instantly & remove one of the major stressors

Then invest in REAL help
Fund mental health in Medicare
Build public housing
Fully fund public education

If Labor were genuine about making a difference they'd #RaiseTheRate and rebuild public housing stocks instead of creating a new neoliberal investment asset classes for super funds, allowing upper and middle classes to build retirement wealth at expense of the poor.
#auspol

can all the men in parliament then #RaiseTheRate and fix inadequacies in health, housing and community supports

'PM has told attendees at a march against domestic violence his government 'must do better''

So if his govt fails to #RaiseTheRate of welfare payments - and leaves millions of women in #poverty and financially vulnerable - we'll know it's just talk.
