The latest social cohesion report is out. 76% of Australians say multiculturalism has been good for the nation. 73% say immigrants are good for the economy. The politics of division may be loud. But they don't speak for the majority. theguardian.com/australia-ne…

If Jess Wilson’s strategy relies on short interviews, no difficult follow-ups and avoiding the community she wants to represent, what exactly are voters being asked to trust?

Under the VicLibs we will be Jeffed all over again. Kennett sold 350 schools & 12 hospitals. Over 45,000 public service & bureaucratic jobs were lost including 3,500 nurses. How appalling. Wilson will do the same if not worse. VicLibs =CUTS SLASH SACK mentality #Vote1Labor

After seeing this interview is it any wonder Jess Wilson avoids public forums, scrutiny & the hard questions. Absolute trainwreck #libfail #VicVotes
Eventually the media training fails, the talking points dry up, and someone asks how you’ll fix Labor’s spending by spending even more. Jess Wilson hoped nobody would notice before the election. Instead, her friendly chat with Neil Mitchell became a car crash.

Government spending is inflationary... but our spending is not - LNP logic... ON we'll be transparent but can't explain missing millions... Make it make sense...

Like the Australian elections, like Brazil & Serbia, what really matters about the midterm results is it shows money, propaganda, hate speech, gerrymandering and intimidation can only work for so long. Huge relief.

VicLabor has already implemented substantial industries: Building trains in Ballarat Building buses in Dandenong, 6,000th bus built recently Volgren builds standard, hybrid & zero emission battery-electric buses on imported chassis on makers like Scania, Volvo & BYD #Vote1Labor
Replying to @BenCarrollMP
Victoria has a proud manufacturing history. But the sector faced a blow the day Liberals dared GM to leave Australia. We need a strong manufacturing sector to keep our economy growing. So if we can make it here, we will. We'll create 5,000 new manufacturing jobs across Victoria with a new Make It Here Fund.

Watching @News24Aust reports #Midterms2026 they’re blaming Trump’s Iranian 🇮🇷 war on high fuel ⛽️ prices & inflation causing a ‘blue wave’ 😳 Yet in Australia the same network 🇦🇺 consistently blame Labor for high fuel prices & inflation 😩 Go figure 🤔 #auspol

Jess Wilson’s spending/CoL policies largely consist of tax cuts for GP clinic owners, private schools & Airbnb owners. Their pamphlet/plan is a set of embarrassing motherhood statement dot points. There’s absolutely nothing for ordinary Victorians just trying to get by #springst

One year on from our boost to bulk billing, more than 4,000 GP clinics across Australia now bulk bill every patient. That’s half of all GP clinics nationwide.

Well said Premier Ben Carroll. Only Labor cares about ALL Victorians #Vote1Labor #MedicareForAll FeeFreeTAFE
Today's RBA decision hurts working people. That's why we're making commonsense savings - and delivering real cost-of-living support like free dental care.

Jess Wilson sounds like Morrison, saying she will be premier & treasurer simultaneously. Her economics do NOT add up. Sacking 45,000 ppl will wreck the economy & lives. She will behave like Kennett, some of us remember his CUT SLASH SACK mentality #NeverVoteLiberal #Vote1Labor
We must have a leader that turns up! Jess is sounding like Morrison!

We're focused on cost-of-living measures. With the RBA's most recent rate hike, Victorians are struggling – but the Liberals are ready to cut further.

Great work here from Greg Jericho. He is one of very few who are telling Australians the truth about the economy, interest rates, spending and the lies being pedalled by mainstream media and govt to maintain the status quo open.substack.com/pub/deepcu…

As we sleep tonight, Americans will be voting in their mid-term congressional elections. Hopefully they will come to their senses and turn on the vicious, lying, corrupt and war-mongering buffoon now infesting the White House. Early results around 11am Sydney time. Conclusive results maybe mid-evening…

Mid Terms. Made you mildly nervous at school hoping you did well to earn a good mark. Today it’s terrifying not knowing if Americans will screw themselves and the rest of the World again by staying with their Toxic Partner. 🙄😒

This election is a choice. Between a Labor Government that will protect our health system. Or a Liberal-One Nation Coalition that will Americanise it.
