Anthony Albanese - How long? -2-

[Pakenhamsaint]

LNP and their friendly media are using it to erode Albanese's rags-to-riches back story.

"See, even though he started poor, once he got to the top, he put his snout in the trough like the rest of us and is just another 'Canberra elite'".

It'll work extremely well with working-class voters and people who don't know a lot about politics but see the newspaper front pages and listen to talkback radio.

I would call it more "He's forgot where he's come from"

 

[Not Important]

That may be so, and it isn't the fact that politicians get upgrades and perks. It's what happens next, e.g., when a competitor of Qantas requests additional flights into Australia and is knocked back for spurious reasons. That competitor just happens to be the current No.1 airline in the world as voted by SKYTRAX.

The perks may be a storm in a tea cup; the optics of what actually happened are not.

As for the comment by Marque Lawyers that receiving upgrades has minimal impact on governance, well that shows how naïve and out of touch this firm of lawyers is.

it’s been made an issue via the diarrhea factory and the friends of the author, who was a former liberal staffer - rarely mentioned. far worse has been going on for yonks. i don’t like it, but if the reactionaries want an inquiry, then make it broad-based and go back a decade. which they won't for good reason. either that or they should stfu.

Well it's the regular suspects with their regular outrage posts based on regular newscorp articles.

So it's probably just business as usual in the real world.

Qantas should blacklist all the lnp talking heads that are running this narrative. No more free upgrades for Dutton and co.

 

[BurnUp]

Look at these cheerleaders:

This somehow crucifies Albo, and yet the Paladin hundred million dollar corruption via Dutton doesn't even get sent to the corruption watchdog or exposed in the media.

Truly is a fascist neo-liberal world.

Labor Polly so much worse.

Look at these cheerleaders:

Nah. Albo is weak as piss, but Chaiman's lounge is a nonsense issue to feign injury over.

Naturally a cheerleader would think this.

Albo is weak as piss, bends over for Netanyahu.

You probably cheerlead for that.

When you look at how QANTAS is able to rip off consumers while politicians sit back and watch, Id say it rates very high. We can maybe see why QANTAS know they can get away with it.

What changes if someone who isnt fighting fires flies home? As long as he answered the phone - unlike the darling of Vic Pol who turned her phone off so she could enjoy her dinner in peace.

Its a terrible look, but it actually stopped nothing. And realistically, you dont want politicians meddling. Otherwise you end up with the RFA in Victoria where huge numbers of volunteers are quitting because of meddling and dangerous new policies.

Have a sook campaigner

campaigners are people who are okay with their side being crooks while hating the other side for doing it.

People should hate anyone doing it regardless of politics.

Simply not true. I have been negative about both sides. You have blinkers so just dont see it. You live in your bubble and wish anyone who disagrees with you to be locked up as a criminal.

Right? Or are you more of a wishing violence on others type? Probably a bit.

Meanwhile - in the realm of things that actually matter - inflation is now back into the 2-3% target band. Hopefully high inflation won't be much of a political weapon for Dutton come May when the election is due.

Looking across the pacific to the usa , current lower inflation is not cutting thru to 70 million people

I reckon Albo will deliver an early-ish budget in April with a few nice sweeteners like further energy bill and child care subsidies, then call an election straight away for May.

Core inflation is what matters for the rba target band and it is still too high. But its falling as well and by next may should be well within the band.
