@26pglt The solution is #UBI.

As for the "why", there's more to it than media backlash. The union lobby is VERY against UBI, as it puts the "or I can quit, try finding a replacement" power directly in workers' hands. No intercessory ACTU saints required to improve pay and conditions. And with less union dues, less funding for ALP careerist #NepoBaby staffers like #AlboMP.

@trib Stephen Miles was trending up in #QldPol at the end, but then creepy political #NepoBaby #AlboMP turned up to "help" with his "majority or nothing" tantrum campaign, and the message became that Qld Labor wouldn't form a coalition with the greens if they had the opportunity to do so in order to keep government, and so here we are.

@ki_sekiya 4D Political Chessmaster #AlboMP thinking labelling someone "conservative" is an insult, in a world where everyone is suffering from unwanted change thrust upon them, is as isolated and remote as trying to use "socialist" as a smear, to an audience who want public healthcare and a functional welfare state.

@Jinjirrie

Albanese is in a bubble, a pro-Netanyahu bubble.

Outside that bubble it's obvious that letting Australians' friends and relatives be slaughtered and maimed is destroying #SocialCohesion.

And, and this bit is not popular with everyone, next Monday marks the anniversary of a day of terrorist depravity by Hamas. Their actions put them beside Netanyahu in illegitimacy.

@Qldaah
Dutton can't be that stupid that he doesn't know he is bullshitting us... can he? AND if he does know, what does that say about what he thinks of the electorate? That is the proper question to ask.

If there is evidence of a lot of dissatisfaction with #AlboMP 's govt there is nothing that the Labor govt is doing that shows it is taking the electorate for mugs.

The #LNP 's disrespect for the electorate is sharply contrasted with an over-cautious and over-sensitive Labor govt.

(for the record I am a Labor Party member)
