If multi-billionaire Clive Palmer can afford to interfere in the election by spending:
• $4,200,000 on YouTube ads and
• $5,400,000 on free to air ads
it’s a reasonable conclusion that he can afford to pay more tax.

We cannot let the chaos around US trade policy destroy investment pipelines to secure Australia iron, steel & aluminium jobs
We have projects underway right now where Australian steel & aluminium can be used
If we don’t make it here, now is the time to be asking why not

Which one of these is a better outcome for workers, our industries, our environment and our economy?

Good Labor government should have workers’ backs - thanks @AlboMP
Workers aren't wondering how long they've got, but instead how bright their futures can be

We now have a clearer pathway to green steel and a strong future for our communities abc.net.au/news/2025-02-20/w…
Peter Dutton’s nuclear proposal is based upon a 40% reduction in electricity consumption by 2050.
40% less consumption is the same as unplugging both Victoria & WA from electricity.
The maths don’t add up. The report is nonsense.
Nuclear:
Too late
Too expensive
Too dangerous
It’s astounding how quickly those who attain privilege, position and power turn on the workers.
Workers have a right to withdraw their labour and to demand a fairer deal.
Wtf
@ChrisMinnsMP @johaylen ? smh.com.au/politics/nsw/sydn…
What is Dutton’s nuclear plan:
Higher prices
Less local industry
Lower household income
This is a dangerous plan that hurts workers.

The CSIRO has found the cost of electricity generated from nuclear reactors by 2040 would be about $145-$238 per MWh
Solar is $22-$53
Wind is $45-$78
Nuclear power would make electricity between 2 & 10 times more expensive
Who pays for that?
The Dutton nuclear announcement is a disaster
It models data for less electricity usage across the economy
Modernising & growing our industries means electricity usage must go up
This is a plan for Australia’s manufacturing industries to be closed down
#Auspol2024 #nuclear
Simple mathematics
$331 billion for 7 nuclear power plants = $47.3 billion for each one
This will drive up our power bills
It will destroy our local industries
It will deny workers in our energy regions a secure future
This is a dangerous distraction

BREAKING NEWS:
Federal Government uses public money to fund publicly owned TAFE.
Imagine that.

The evil, selfish & greedy ideology of the H.R Nichols Society is being resurrected by the Liberal Party.
The silver-spooners claimed birth right - to rule over the rest of us - is leaking back into politics.
Strong #unions are their greatest fear.

New research from @CntrFutureWork shows Australia COULD manufacture wind towers, turbines, and equipment: creating thousands of jobs, supporting a domestic green steel industry, and avoiding emissions from imported towers. futurework.org.au/report/an-… It just needs an industry plan.
Replying to @BowenChris
The Golden plains project was supplied by @Vestas
Not one single tower was made in Australia. Zero.
Blade edges are already breaking off & falling apart.
Irony -this project is to provide electricity to @snowyhydro - which built a generation of skills & skilled migration.
Productivity is output per worker per hour worked.
Productivity is improved through workers' skills, technology change & management practices.
Eroding workers rights & protections is about ideology & profit, not productivity.

Housing.
It’s so we can create a home.
A sanctuary.
A safe place to sleep, to grow and to live.
To raise children & build happy memories.
Not for profit.
Not for wealth.
Not only for the rich.

Workers through their unions win the industrial, economic, political & public debates.
Though we can’t always win the headline
The media have an agenda to silence our voices. They want you to believe that democracy doesn’t work
Join your union & show that it does✊

Landlords exploit tenants to accumulate wealth.
Jacking up rents beyond their true value is a form of economic exploitation.
Blatant profiteering in a cost of living crisis.
How does this happen?
Landlords have ‘power’, tenants have none.
