Well a lot of those who don't vote for this will have to answer to their constituents and ATM that's the old right wing fossil fuel loving coalition.

Albanese needs Greens, Jacqui Lambie and David Pocock onside for emergency energy bill.

The inquiry into SloMo's Robodebt scheme shows that the right wing mob are still trying to cover their asses.

Marise Payne tells Robodebt inquiry she doesn't know when need for legislative changes 'dropped off the radar'.

Just your typical right wind pollie.

Former Liberal MP Brian Ellis pleads guilty to hindering Corruption and Crime Commission investigation.

Another former WA politician has pleaded guilty to hindering a corruption investigation into his misuse of taxpayer-funded electoral allowances — in this instance by lying under oath and throwing his mobile phone into the ocean....
And then there was SloMo at the Robodebt inquiry.

These are the seven Robodebt issues put to Scott Morrison for 'consideration and comment'.

But getting a straight answer out of him was a task, though at least our new mob is doing something to help the people instead of putting them into debt.

Parliament reconvenes for urgent sitting to rein in skyrocketing power prices.

Plan to cap gas and coal prices wins enough support to pass parliament.

Though the fossil fuel pundits arn't happy about it.

Those fossil fuel loving ring wing pollies of ours are certainly an embarrassment.

Nationals MP Michael McCormack describes kava-drinking ordeal that left him 'cross-eyed' in hospital.

He must of thought that guzzling kava was like guzzling beer.

Finally it looks like our right wing state government is finally getting the message.

WaterNSW announces hydro-electric plant plans for Burrendong Dam in state's Central West.

With more being planned for other such sites (even if they won't do much during a droughts).

I just hope that they don't sell these new assets of to greedy private enterprise again.

Cheers.

Well they got that pretty much right.

Liberals' election post-mortem blames COVID-19, scandals and faction warlords for loss.

Just another kick in the guts for SloMo, but will their current crop of leaders listen? Can a leopard change its spots?

The right here still hasn't learn't the lesson about their hypocrisy and why they're now a pale shadow of themselves these days.

Opposition leader Peter Dutton has called on the government to explain its new travel rules, as China lashes out at restrictions.

Start listening to the people you fools and not to those greedy businesses for a change.

The mighty white right here is still showing their racist side.

Shorten, Albanese slam Dutton for ‘playing games’ with Voice concerns.

While another slimy move by SloMo is revealed.

Pat Cummins reveals secret Whatsapp group with Scott Morrison and Justin Langer.

I know that greatly dislike being added to fool groups, especially without my consent being given.

Sounds like this report won't go down well for our right wing state government with an election just around the corner.

Release of ICAC report on Daryl Maguire, Gladys Berejiklian delayed.

Is it the final nail in the coffin? Silver spoon premier caught out (again).

Perrottet apologises for wearing Nazi uniform to his 21st birthday.

It certainly won't help his ever disappearing chances of surviving the March elections.

Meanwhile the calls get louder for this to be released now and not after the election.

ICAC should hurry up and release Berejiklian, Maguire findings, former judge says.

Yeah, leave him where he is (as his time is quickly running out anyway).

Ousting Dominic Perrottet could make more trouble for Liberal party, commentators say.

The fallout continues over Nazi-gate (and all is not well within the right wing party).

Our ex-prime munster and religious nutter the Mad Abbott is on the B.S. path yet again.

Tony Abbott advising controversial conservative lobby group Advance Australia.

"Advance Australia" is a very strange name for a mob that would rather turn the clock backwards than forwards.

As the inquest into slimy SloMo's Robodebt continues it has revealed a lot of stupid people were ignoring legal advice about the scheme.

Former government services minister Stuart Robert was warned Robodebt scheme could lead to civil action.

But were they just being stupid to advance SloMo's plans?

Meanwhile our tightfisted right wing state government that has had wages frozen for years is finally starting to cave in.

NSW train dispute ends as union votes to accept government deal.

It's just amazing that once 1 trouble making minister, David Elliot (who has caused big problems with every single portfolio he has ever held), gets moved on from a portfolio things start looking a lot brighter. Thankfully we won't be putting up with David for much longer as his seat is now gone (hopefully the rest of his useless party will quickly follow him in March).

As the Robodebt inquiry continues those of the "privileged party" (ex-government) are all denying responsibility while still avoiding to name the real instigator of its conception.

Alan Tudge tells Robodebt royal commission he was not responsible for department's failures to ensure scheme was lawful.
