A few different things

 Elections

Before saturday the Liberals had not been in government for 23 years. That is absurd. The ALP has been in government far too long. It was a bad result!

Queensland has a state election next saturday. The ALP has had 3 successive terms and most of the last 30 years. Again that is far too long. They need to be replaced and that looks on the cards.

Interest rates

A lot of people said the unemployment figures put interest rate cuts off for some time. Labour force figures are LAGGING indicators. Moreover monthly figures are quite volatile.This ignores the fact inflation is falling both at a headline and underlying rate. Various surveys show inflation falling as well. We have a slowing economy fellahs!  

Albo buying a house

Albo bought a house on the Central Coast which is close to his fiancée's  parents. Here is a double standard. Liberals can make money and invest well but not ALP people. This happened to Keating in spades. Capitalism can only apply to the critics apparently.

Trump fraud

Trump tried to sell himself as working at McDonalds but get this. The franchise was closed for the day. the only 'buyers' were carefully selected trump supporters. Unbelievable 

Church and politics

There is almost a tradition in the USA where politicians are allowed into churches and give political speeches.  Harris di it today our time.The church ( which is people who believe in god) is different to the building to where they meet. Even so the building is supposed to be the house of God. You go there to hear the word of God and encourage each other to follow the teachings of Jesus. Listening to a politician is not part of this. It got worse with Trump as it would. In a church he not only swore he got the congregation to swear. What would a person think listening and seeing this!
