Ms Bishop said the Queensland premier and other politicians have weaponised fear to gain

political advantages. “To spread fear has been part and parcel of her strategy,” she told Sky News.

The false narrative of uneducated scaremongering is a mindless single minded foolish game with people's lives, of which she is directly responsible for needless deaths of babies & children already. The labour qld premier needs a mental reset without pay or gov benefits.

Australian students working as harvesters for struggling farmers is a 'national need' | Sky News AustraliaLiberal MP Julian Leeser says there is a national need to encourage Australian students to work as harvesters for struggling farmers, which is why a HECS discount has been introduced as an extra incentive.\n\nIt comes as the agriculture industry’s usual influx of backpackers who join the fruit-picking force at an estimated worth of $13 billion has been impeded by the coronavirus pandemic.\n\nAccordingly, the Coalition has proposed a HECS discount for Australian students who work in the fresh produce industry in a bid to help struggling farmers.\n\n“We’ve got a great country, and the working holiday maker experience is terrific,” Mr Leeser told Sky News host Peta Credlin.\n\n“We heard stories that farmers are already pulling out their trees.\n\nIf farmers across the country are doing that, it will mean less money for the agricultural sector, it’ll mean less free exports, it’ll mean less fruit and vegetables on our shelves and it’ll mean higher prices.\n\n“There’s a real national need to do something to encourage people to go and do this work.”\n\nImage: News Corp Australia JulianLeeser Best idea I heard all day. JulianLeeser Just a reminder to your presenters. Tasmania is still part of the federation. JulianLeeser easy way..just give grocery /fuel/rental/electricity credit paid by card only without any cash withdrawal or alcohol purchase, for basic necessity and if anyone wants extra money they can work a few hours..

Sure we can pay $100+ out of pocket to see a psychologist...online...which does next to nothing. The best we got offered from school was a half hour extra ‘live’ class online. JamesMerlinoMP To say some are flourishing is an exaggeration. Fact is even excellent students are not doing as well learning online than what they would in class. And the majority are not doing well at all many not even participating. Keep politics out of our kids education.
