Defined as: the transfer of a business, industry, or service from public to private ownership and control, how would that ever be a good thing?! The main purpose of all right-wing, economically Neo-liberal government, is to transfer as much public wealth into their private sector buddies hands as possible. The current New South Wale government has sold off more than $90 Billion in public assets. Let ask the questions - who benefited? By how much? Is it being run better? How much did it cost? - the tax payer builds it and pays for it and the right-wing sell it to their mates for a song and then rent it back to us. STOP PRIVATIZATION. NSW Labor are right to make this an election centerpiece.

Australian prime minister Anthony Albanese just sent an unexpected flare up on superannuation. After bagging him for abandoning the Labor party must-do list of rich people tax breaks, negative-gearing and franking credits, is he playing 4D chess with all of us?

Mere seconds after Aussie prime minister, Anthony Albanese even mentioned removing some tax breaks millionaires gained in recent times, the Australian mainstream media, from radio to tv to print, proved as always who it really works for - the top 1% of Australians (who they hilariously call middle Australia). But there power has never been weaker. This is a massive opportunity.

Whilst the West arms Ukraine with billions in weapons and universally sanctions a much larger and more powerful attacker stealing their lands, the West also gives billions in arms to Israel, whilst Israel attacks a much smaller and weaker opponent and steals their lands, and turns a blind eye to anything they do the Palestinians.

I guess some people are worth more than others.

No doubt sniffing future profits, and fearful of the online mob spoiling that party, the estates and publishers of Dahl's and Fleming's works are releasing new versions of their books, changing words. Never change an artists work. For a start it's missing a great opportunity to learn and teach - how and why history has changed, how to deal with being offended - it's also deleting a snap shot of the past. But worst of all is the precedent it sets, what's next, and who decides? A painting too explicit? A film too upsetting? Just change it. What about re-releasing NWA albums with sexist language removed? Never do this.

Move over COVID, conspiracy town has a new sheriff - and it's an a doozy. If you've spent your life (like I have) in horrendously developed major cities, the idea of having everything you need 15 minutes from your home, would seem like the sanest and most wanted and most human development plan ever, apparently its basically Stalin.

Never trust any phrases less in politics than "Tough on Crime" or a "A war on crime", it's just right-wing populist short hand for "We aren't going to address any of the reasons for crime, just lock more people up, even harder, which has never in the history of humanity worked". With El Salvador now going down this route with the America's largest ever prison camp - with a massive emphasis on just how sadistically they will treat the prisoners - the residents of San Salvador's worst gang neighborhoods now have the enviable life of, not being able to escape joining a gang and then being put into an even worse prison for the rest of their horrible lives after.

The 1.6 BILLION dollar Dominion Voting Systems defamation case against Fox News has revealed something we all knew was happening - Fox News doesn't even believe the crap it spouts. Whilst it's most toxic mainstays like #TuckerCarlson and #SeanHannity were spruiking mass voter fraud to a violently wound up audience who would end up trying to overthrow the government, they were mocking those same claims in private. This isn't freedom of speech - this should be treason.

Well done to the world for their response to COVID - it needs saying - where for once right wing populism was ignored for a global belief in science (if only we could've done the same for climate change). Now the cookers, conspiracy theorists, anti-vaxxers and charlatan politicians are claiming they were right about everything, when all they've done is spout a load of rubbish 3 years ago, dropped 90% of it and still claimed to be right about everything cos they waited 3 years. Mistakes will always be made on unprecedented global events - but we were never wrong in listening to who we did.

I'm no fan of either Anthony Albanese's wildly dangerous The Voice referendum on Indigenous recognition or voting on my fellow citizens rights, but it's happening and to lose the vote by a fraction because of something you've done Lidia, will be so damaging to indigenous Australians, the prime minister and maybe even Australia itself.
