Liberals and nationals once again attacking senior citizens and their meager incomes to prop up a budget surplus shortfall. What a disgraceful mean government that resorts to stealing every dollar from senior citizens who have worked and paid taxes for 40 years. abcnews 3AW693
Australians over 50 prepare to take to the streets & protest to every Liberal & National politician. It's outrageous Morrison & Frydenberg ONCE AGAIN attack senior citizens who did all the hard work over 40+ years. All while politicans snouts firmly in the tax payers trough. NO!
Funny that white western nations , have ageing populations, nothing to do with marxist agenda of women in employment , having kids later or not at all , then flood the country with refugees ?
JoshFrydenberg ScottMorrisonMP this from the morons that ignored all the warning signs of a stalled economy for years. Despite RBA & business groups warning the economy was stalling LNP did nothing. Now a recession looms and this treasurer is trying to cover up their mistakes.
Oh so what has happened Josh, did you just discover that the government has spent all the money required to look after ageing Australians, the money they paid in taxes for their security in old age. This while we prop up refugees
He must have Consultants to give him that idea & probably cost the taxpayer millions. That's why boomers need to work over 65.

Labor: Australians must 'accept' China is an 'economic superpower' | Sky News AustraliaLabor MP Jason Clare has defended former prime minister Paul Keating after he condemned the Australian government for its handling of the rise of China. \n\nMr Keating said the government failed to respond appropriately to the “rise, legitimacy and importance” of China. \n\n“I think what Paul’s saying is we’ve just got to get real, we need a bit of sober realism here because China is the biggest kid on the block,” Mr Clare said. \n\n“When Paul became treasurer, the Chinese economy was about the same size as Australia’s, it’s now I think 10 times the Australian economy – it’s an economic superpower and we need to work with China. \n\nMr Clare said Australia must “understand that we’re not going to agree on everything” but “China’s going to be an economic superpower in this region for the next century and what Paul’s saying is we’ve got to accept that and work with China”. \n\nImage: News Corp Australia Labor would say that, all the labor men wear Red ties in Parliament and many females in Labor wear Red jackets or is it Paranoia I have The rise of a new superpower is a rare event in a lifetime. Lets hope our generation deals with the rise of China better than previous generations dealt with the rise of the USSR! This shows that if the Labor Party was in government they would be jumping over backwards to please China 😡

The bulk of the smoke isn't from the main fire, it's from the associated back burning, which has now doubled, almost tripled the size of the fire. Glad I had the day off from flying today 🚁
