Well, basically the whole country is 'culturally sensitive' as our indigenous friends lay claim to all of it.

Sometime the government will have to put a stop to it and consider the national interest first.
Yes but with the ground swell of interest, in becoming of indigenous heritage, there will be a lot of public backlash. So it wont be easy, I read there are 30% more people identifying as indigenous than were in the last census, I know my youngest son is but I don't know where he traces it back from.
It definitely isn't from my side, unless there was a travelling Australian native in Yorkshire, in my history.:xyxthumbs
 
ABCC about to get scrapped so unions can continue to act like dckheads onsite. Hope it's not the start of the ideological creep.

Still seem to be brown nosing the Yanks but it's still early days.

How about a commission on the big money / real corruption / dodgy building standards / bankruptcy avoiding repairs etc etc.

To ideological eh.

It will be interesting to see what is actually actioned, on all fronts, with Albo in charge I'm hoping for a breath of fresh air.
Several others are carrying way too much baggage IMO, but with Albo's popularity it may well keep the lid on them. :2twocents
Time will tell, but if the self serving take over, it will be a short honeymoon IMO.

From the article:
That’s why we have tasked Treasury to review the operation of the Your Future, Your Super laws (YFYS laws) after the second round of MySuper performance tests have taken place by August this year.

Funds must always be held accountable for their performance. In doing so, accountability mechanisms must not simultaneously create perverse or unintended outcomes for members.

The Government is aware of concerns that the YFYS laws have the potential to create such outcomes by discouraging certain investment decisions or certain infrastructure investments.

More like the paper bags stuffed full of cash on Chinese jobsites handed over to members.

Commission into work cover and their bs treatment of injured. Cases costing $200000k + with a $15k payout to claimants.

Or only allowing approved builders to get the nod. Where do you want to start?
 
The question I want asked is, if we legislate 43% reduction and can't meet it, what happens.
Do we have to pay a fine, do we have to buy credits off the EU, really what does it mean?

SFA probably. Its an aspirational thing not a contract and its too far away for most people to care. Not that we shouldn't try, but if we only get to 40% is anyone going to sue us ?

We won't have any money to pay anyway :2twocents

We'll be lucky to even get to that figure. The Govt of the day whoever they are will either BS their way through it by using offsets or just dump it outright. The Climate wars are not over :)

It will mean that special interest groups will take the Government to court for not meeting the targets as legislated.
Lawyers will make a (another) motza, we taxpayers will pay through the nose, and Oz will still not have met the targets.
Gotta be a great outcome.

Well it looks like patching up the friendship with China, is far more problematic than first thought.


Well that was the intent, it doesn't seem to be panning out that way.


Foreign ministry issues lengthy list of demands​

As it did over and over again with the Morrison government, the foreign ministry warned Mr Albanese to change his government's ways, suggesting he is heading the way of his predecessor.

"We urge the Australian side to develop a clear understanding of the situation," he told reporters.

"Pursue the right course, respect China’s core interests and major concerns, abide by the one-China principle, observe basic norms governing international relations, stop interfering in China’s internal affairs, stop saying or doing the things that undermine regional peace and stability, refrain from echoing or assisting certain countries’ misguided strategy of using the Taiwan question to contain China, and avoid creating new obstacles for China-Australia ties."

Yeah, I just don't understand why Australia doesn't just follow NZ and kowtow to everything China demands.
