“Here's where your political #leaders have been campaigning so far”

Where are they missing?

“Neither of the leaders has set foot in an #Indigenous community. That is despite the #PM's(#Labor) victory speech from 2022 opening with a commitment to the #Uluru #Statement from the Heart.” (NB: Labor was the Party to hold, “The Voice” referendum.)

“Mr #Dutton (#LNP / #Liberal / #Nationals / ##Coalition) has been noticeably absent from sites where #NuclearReactors would be built under his proposed #power plan, and he has deflected #questions from #journalists about when he might visit.”

Day 26 cont

“Prime Minister #AnthonyAlbanese has defended the #Labor candidate running against Peter Dutton as an “extraordinary Australian” after it emerged she tweeted faked images of the opposition leader wearing a #Nazi uniform.”

Leadership.

Day 23

“Blocking the #GamblingAdReforms is the fourth known example of Albanese’s willingness to #overrule senior ministers such as #EnvironmentMinister Tanya Plibersek, #AttorneyGeneral Mark Dreyfus and assistant minister Andrew Leigh when they were tackling #controversial and #sensitive #policies.

The #PrimeMinister can always use the authority of his position to make the final call on all matters of policy. This masthead has already revealed that #Albanese has come over the top of Plibersek on #EnvironmentalProtection laws, Dreyfus on mandatory jail terms for hate crimes and antisemitism, and Leigh on sex and gender census questions.”

I’m going to be re-elected.

Day 18 cont

“#DanielJones claimed responsibility for the #confrontation on Tuesday, alongside alt-right group #Melbourne #FreedomRally, in an incident that sparked #safety concerns about the ability of #extremists to #infiltrate #SecureLocations during the #election campaign.”

The two most dangerous times for diplomatic and political security is INGRESS and EGRESS from cars to buildings, buildings to cars. How did the extremists learn the TIME and PLACE of the PM?

Day 16 Invest Rent

“The #PM is asked how Labor's announcements will affect #Australians who already own one home, but are looking at #purchasing a second.

It's simple, the PM says — #houses will be #cheaper.

"If you increase supply, you assist everyone because you have an impact on #
affordability," he says.”

If you’re a first home buyer, if you want to buy a home but they’re too expensive, Labor does not give a

Day 16 cont

“The #PM was asked whether he'd commit to retaining #Plibersek as environment minister for a second term.

PM "You know what I'll commit to? Trying to win this #election," the PM says.
Sensing more is needed, he adds the following:

PM "#TanyaPlibersek has been a friend of mine for a long time. We live in neighbouring seats, we're good #mates and she's doing a *fantastic job*."

This is the Labor Environment Policy day.

@gemelliz For this reason alone, #Poilievre has disqualified himself from being #PM IMHO.

@ikeacurtains Absolutely. And I hope #PM @markcarney reins them in. For example: #PresidentAdolfMusk & #BenShapiro want #Donald to pardon the man who brutally killed #GeorgeFloyd. #DerekChauvin, a white cop, had arrested Floyd, a black man, for using a counterfeit $20. He knelt on Floyd's neck and back for over 9 minutes, fatally asphyxiating him. And #ABDanielleSmith is sharing the limelight with him? WTF is wrong with you #Alberta?
