'Our government has been clear that we are not cutting Medicare,' Anne Ruston said. Scott Morrison has confirmed Ms Ruston will be the new health and aged care minister, if the government is re-elected on 21 May.

Source:Scott Morrison has confirmed he will name Anne Ruston his new health and aged care minister should the Coalition be re-elected.Senator Ruston, who is currently the social services minister, will replace Greg Hunt, who is retiring from politics.

Senator Hume, who is minister for superannuation and financial services, is reported to be Senator Ruston's replacement in social services, but she was coy on the issue. "I do know that the prime minister had said that this was not going to be a day of usual campaigning. And that he has chosen, the government has chosen, to make a very significant announcement today of the appointment of a new health minister, should the government be re-elected," he said.

Mr Hunt said the deal will see the delivery of new health services for children as well as support for people following a suicide attempt, and those with eating disorders. When asked about her own views, Ms Payne said she does not share those of Ms Deves, but declined several times to answer whether she believes she should be dropped as the Liberal candidate."But Ms Deves has apologised for those remarks. She has withdrawn those remarks. And that’s the most important thing as she continues as the candidate there in Warringah. She has made that apology clear.

More LNPLies. Just to remind everyone, there are no laws covering truth in political advertising. Look for the truth in what they do, ignore the lie in what they say.

That’s if she doesn’t end up being another MorrisonCasualty All of the Crumbmaiden s seem to end up with 🖤 Conditions that see them rushing off to Hospital - that’s what Happens to individuals who are involved in the Inner Workings of the LNPCrimeFamily Auspol

No, they'll privatise it.

We wrote to you, Anne_Ruston. In your capacity as Minister for Families. You did not respond to us. Now you are Minister of Health-elect if LiberalAus wins, will you respond to us now? We matter. Our children matter. cleftwordsmatter

Heck no, just .... no

CatsBum as her normal expression

After cutting Medicare for a decade. LNPCorruptionParty FederalICAC

They won’t cut funding to Medicare, just like they were going to have a Federal ICAC. They may not cut funding, but will they increase it to keep pace with rising costs?

She means again so it's obviously lies

They have been slashing medicare for the last 9 yrs

They are not cutting it, Just making it unavailable through co payments

ScottMorrisonMP It's already been cut. Significantly. You will continue to do so.

Word play by Ruston. Not cutting means it will still be there but you will need to start paying part of it, % out of pocket. That’s what’s LNP Ruston’s not cutting Medicare means. It will exist but you must start paying. Sorry if you are already struggling. Ruston doesn’t care.

She lies.

Not fkn way mum will be going into aged care if LNP win. No fkn way.

LNP LIars for years

Jeez you think we would believe them? What happened with the natural disaster preparedness fund? They already are dismantling medicare we have their existing track record to know its blatant lies.

🐃💩

'Our government has been clear that we are not cutting Medicare' - Ruston Oh give us a break!! We all know the record of LNP on NO cuts!! MedicareForAll Auspol22

Just cutting scans

criprights Do you think Morrison lies. I dont think, I know…

criprights It's in their DNA to despise Medicare and they lie, compulsively since Morrison became PM. Put the 2 together.

They've already cut Medicare. She's factually lying.

Sure Anne sure

Replacement Minister for Social Services

Scraping scraping

They already have.

Said the government who cut Medicare after saying they wouldn’t in 2019

The Abbot Promise.

No bitch, just cutting it to the skeleton 😡😡😡😡 VoteThemAllOut2022 AlboForPM

Cutting? No. Butchering? Yes.

What does “not cutting Medicare mean”? They have taken procedures off the free lost and increased the amount we have to pay out of pocket. I guess that technically isn’t “cutting” it 🤔

I call BULL💩

Not cutting it, but not improving it either, right; can you not see the need, have you not figured that adding mental and dental health to Medicare will take the heat off the hospital's?

Aged care? Heaven help us! At least Colbeck did nothing. This one will probably devise new ways to be cruel.

There is no threat to Medicare and Indue card will not be expanded (cash is redundant in any case) - but every day twitter says the opposite as ppl trot in here with factory memes and outright rumours

a thousand word tweet auspol Medicare

there are so many more things important than getting kids to do sport - mental health, for one. There are nowhere near enough resources for those needing help even if they’re actively reaching out and asking for that help. The public system takes forever, and the wait for private

Thats bullshit and you know it, we need to vote the LNP out. We can not have these incompetent people cutting more from Medicare, putting pensioners on the indue card. She has no empathy for those less fortunate. Just does as she’s told by Scotty.

Currently Mark Butler is Shadow Minister for Health and Aged Care. I'd have him a million times over Rushton, anti abortion, anti welfare,

Her government lies. Ask her about MRIs

But they have been. 900 items gone. CTs MRIs Ultrasounds, blood tests.

You already have been cutting by stealth

They have already started to cut Medicare!!!

LNP have already cut Medicare.

Nope…. He is doing that after the election. He’s dreaming! Here is no after the election for him!

Morrison don't waste our time announcing appointments that will never occur.

I’m a Paediatrician and my rural patients had their Telehealth Medicare rebates cut by 33% in January. Had to stop bulk billing

Its difficult to maintain health when homeless due to being forced on the Cashless Debit Card.

They've said that before..

Labor really needs to start publishing some stats on the skyrocketing costs of medicines and MRIs.

But you are already cutting Medicare, do you think we are stupid?

Like hiring an experienced corporate razor gang and them saying we aren't here to fire anyone 🤣

What blatant lies!!!!
