Some home truths about the #Labor govt (and the two party duopoly by association) from #GregJerich writing for deepcutnews-dot-com this time — it really doesn’t matter who he writes for, The Point , The Guardian or here, he’s such a clear and insightful economic analyst everywhere he appears.
“The Labor Party finally saw the need to actually do things, but it remains wedded to the view that fiscal responsibility and hard choices are needed.”

A judicial ball and cup game by the #authoritarian #British regime to try and hide their kangaroo courts. Of course the British brand of #authoritarianism is sponsored by the #zionist via the #neoliberal purse.
#Neoliberalism: buy policy, buy judges, buy law, buy the courts. Politicians are standing by to receive your "donations".
Palestine Action Activists to Be Sentenced As Terrorists in Move Kept Secret From Jury and Public | Novara Media

@nini @ChrisMayLA6 I don't hold with calling voters "idiots". I can't see any merit in that.
Just at the simplest human level, calling people idiots alienates them. Badly. #HilaryClinton tried that, and it didn't work out well for her.
But also, sneering at voters distracts from building the routes to change. How to counter the propaganda of the billionaire media? How to teach people about #imperialism and #RentSeeking and #neoliberalism?
Better to help people rethink than to sneer.

#AlboPM has consistently argued and recently publically confirmed that he believes the #HousingCrisis issue is a #SupplySide problem (I.e. cut red-tape and throw enough money at the problem and it be resolved). Well, here is something that shows us not only how wrong our #PM can be, but how stubbornly he holds on to his opinions no matter what (a behaviourly trait that will, I foresee, bring his undoing as leader of the #Labor party):
“…right now, more than 100,000 approved dwellings are sitting unbuilt across New South Wales — not blocked by councils, not caught in red tape, simply not viable in current market conditions. The planning system approved them. The market didn’t build them.
The Reserve Bank’s own empirical modelling, published in 2019, found that a 1 per cent drop in interest rates increases house prices by 30 per cent, while a 1 per cent increase in dwelling stock reduces prices by just 2.5 per cent.
Given that new supply adds barely 1 per cent to existing stock annually, the supply-side arithmetic has never come close to explaining observed price movements. Those are explained by credit conditions, investor demand, migration levels and macroeconomic cycles — the demand-side levers that sit entirely outside the hands of council planners.”

The End of the “Peace Dividend” and the Return of History
#Identitypolitics, is what happens when liberalism turns inward and fragments - call it mad liberalism. #Culturewar is what happens when that same liberalism hardens and lashes out - bad liberalism. Both look like opposites, but they come from the same place. The uncomfortable part is both were pushed onto the "left" as the way to fight #neoliberalism the very system that’s been tearing apart the social fabric for decades. Instead of building collective power, we pushed endless identity […]https://hamishcampbell.com/the-end-of-the-peace-dividend-and-the-return-of-history/

The #OMN uses #stupidindividualism to describe the culturally manufactured habit of prioritising personal gain and self-interest over any collective well-being - a behaviour so normalised by forty years of #neoliberalism that people actively work against their own community and ecological survival while blindly believing they are exercising personal freedom.

[edited to add link to Guardian article source]
How’s this for a complete and frank confession that the #Labor Govt is Wholy Owned by the #CorporateGiants making bucket loads of profit from #Raping the land and #Pillaging Australian #Resources:
“Trade minister Don Farrell said on Friday “we’re not changing our policies in respect to gas” and that “the most important thing” was to honour existing export contracts.”
Well, Mr #Farrell, for your information, the gas export contracts have nought to do with you or your govt. It is a #Commercial contract from which #Santos and others derive an outrageous profit. So if we were to #Tax that, it would reduce theirt bottom line by the same percentage without any change to the contracts they hold (unless they contain some cagey and dogey clauses — but that a commercial issue again and commercial law, nothing to do with the Govt.)
Nothing more is needed from our govt to prove that #StateCapture is alive and thriving in Aus when a Trade Minister goes to bat for an #ExtrativeIndustry Private Corporation! You just wait until the next election or by-elections, we’ll teach you a thing or two.

#classwar is the ongoing and unacknowledged conflict between those who benefit from and actively reproduce the #deathcult of #neoliberalism - the #nastyfew, managing, and credentialed classes - and the communities, workers, and ecosystems they exploit, a conflict that #mainstreaming culture works to render invisible, reframing systemic dispossession as individual failure.

Ah.. a rare piece of ‘informative’ and ‘facts-based reporting from the #ABC. This article sheds quite a few flood-lights on the #migration political debate and calls out recent #LNP talking points for what they are… so much #racist BS. It is a well written piece by Gareth Hutchens based on historical facts and a recent #research paper from ANU (with a link to it).
Well worth the read, especially if you need facts to inform family members caught in the #propaganda fed to us by #msm and #freeview TV channels (also no small a number of social media ‘trolls’).
“The paper says Coalition governments have contributed "significantly more than Labor governments" to increasing temporary immigration levels in Australia over the past quarter of a century.” Though, it must be said, largely with bi-partisan support.

Quick summary of that ABC piece on crashing Chinese student numbers: Australian universities are pulling the exact same move Australian manufacturing did years ago — they're offshoring.
For decades the unis built a fat revenue model shipping full-fee international students here at $50k–$60k a pop. Now that pipeline is drying up fast, they're rushing to set up joint programs, transnational degrees and offshore campuses across Asia. Same product, delivered cheaper and closer to the customer, with fewer costs onshore.
It's the classic neoliberal playbook: when the easy profits at home dry up, chase them wherever labour and overheads are lower. The cash cow that subsidised the whole sector is on life support, just like the factories before it. Local jobs, wages, and the character of our campuses pay the price.#HigherEducation #AustralianUniversities #Offshoring #Neoliberalism #EducationForProfit

Why People Killed By Aerial Bombing Don't Matter

[edited for typos]
#GregJericho lays into the #RBA ‘s latest gaffe.[The RBA said] “in addition, the conflict in the Middle East has resulted in sharply higher fuel prices, which, if sustained, will add to inflation. Short-term measures of inflation expectations have already risen. As a result, the Board judged that there is a material risk that inflation will remain above target for longer than previously anticipated.” This is a total failure of basic economics, and suggestive of a panicked RBA board.
The impact on oil prices is due to the attacks on Iran and the blockage of cargo through the Strait of Hormuz. Nothing the RBA does will affect that.”
Read that again: “NOTHING the RBA does” will mitigate fuel cost increases due to the crisis in the MIddel East.
It couldn’t be clearer. An Economics 101 student would not even need the clarification. What is the RBA doing FFS? It seems clueless at times.
