    Labor is destroying this country. As a pensioner, I've already had to cut everything. I can't afford to run a heater. I have had to cut what I eat to an absolute minimum. Only 1 meal a day if I'm lucky.

      Yep - this is the money printing that Scomo did during COVID coming home to roost. Doubling Centrelink payments, business bailouts etc. had to end up somewhere. It was initially in a lot of people's savings accounts (record savings were put away during COVID), now those savings have been extracted by business through cranking prices well beyond where they needed to be, and record asset prices. Record immigration etc. hasn't helped since, but in some ways that is a furphy because it's just catching up from the years where there was next to no immigration across 2020 & 2021. A big chunk of it is to do with business eying off those savings accounts knowing full well people have the capacity to pay (for a while at least).

    The problem with the LNP as federal opposition is Dutton is such a weak and ineffective opposition leader that effective politicians in the LNP like Angus Taylor are losing impact with the message. Dutton is like the Loch Ness monster making the LNP something voters will avoid at the next election giving the total disaster that is Albanese a free pass. Dutton in opposition to the Australian people to be any kind of opposition to Labor. Dutton misses the boat every-time and just creates his own narrative because he just doesn't care.
