Please for the love of human dignity act with human decency

When are you doing something about this??? @albomp.bsky.social
#TaxGas, #ScrapAUKUS, #FundTheNDIS, #RaiseTheRate, and for the love of whatever it is you love, stop approving more coal mines. How @albomp.bsky.social had the temerity to attend Pre-COP while approving more coal mines is unfathomable.
They’d be a jobseekers losing sixty cents off the first $153 dollars they earn too. Makes it that much more insidious. #auspol #RaiseTheRate
Pretty cool to hear this edition of Life Matters today. They have asked and people have answered “what’s a good salary in 2026?” And the answers are probably higher than some might think. To be comfortable. podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/l... #auspol #economy #RaiseTheRate
💯 what is particularly nasty and disingenuous is that unemployment rate is an applied calculated tool but they make unemployed prople feel like it’s their fault and then punish them for that. #raisetherate
This. Unemployment is a deliberate economic target. #raisetherate
Hey #auspol are we all feeling the wealth?? Imagine where we could be if we taxed our highest earning corporations who have paid ZERO tax for years...the mind boggles #raisetherate #taxthegas and ditch #AUKUS
I’m very grateful for someone shouting me a dental visit recently. For people who open up the reality of their financial struggles, and for the solidarity and understanding of the scope of inflation and its impact. It’s been a lifesaver for me. To be open about my struggle. #RaiseTheRate #auspol
I’m assuming you mean a year when you say $1.6bn Jim, which is what, about $100 per person per year
Not exactly ground breaking my man
Why don’t you #RaiseTheRate and make a real difference in people’s lives #auspol
Unfortunately the gov isn’t interested in saving lives, just improving their own
Remember that while you’re struggling to put food on the table & pay the bills, our gov awarded themselves & those earning over $190k an extra $4500 p/yr
$4k equates to over 2 months on jobseeker #auspol #RaiseTheRate
He’s making a good argument to #raisetherate but he doesn’t realise or care.
What about those unable to work for any reason? What about the cuts to #NDIS #RaiseTheRate #auspol
#raisetherate! The present rate is cruel, mean and unliveable
And #RaiseTheRate, ask bit gas to pay for resources, perhaps big companies and corporations to contribute more tax to ensure this countries wealth isn’t used against the interests of the people. #auspol #AffordableHousing needs wages to be enough to buy a home. #economy matters for everyone.
As you rely on the unemployed as a mechanism to control inflation you should pay them a living wage
They suffer for our greater good and you know the worst thing that could happen to the economy would be zero unemployment

Or - hear me out here.. in purely political terms, #raisetherate would also lift the vote. There is good reason for the rise of *populist parties.
*it’s because they are popular and you are not.
How to become popular politicians ask?
Give people money and services. It’s not bloody rocket science
I really hope our economy allows more people struggling to find the work they need for good lives in Australia. There’s a lot going on globally and our response to inflation harms the ones struggling the most. Not for lack of trying. #RaiseTheRate #auspol #EmployKristenCarao 👍 #workwanted
