Prime Minister Scott Morrison and Treasurer Josh Frydenberg have $60 billion up their sleeves thanks to an incredible – and probably historic – maths error in the JobKeeper program | CroweDM

so their staff – not just academics, but everyone from cleaners to administrators – can join others who already receive $1500 a fortnight in wage subsidies. Or helping more casual workers.from the scheme but are being championed by Labor and some Liberal MPs.

It could allow the government to phase out JobKeeper carefully over time rather than ending all payments in the last days of September. And it could make room for a more generous unemployment benefit so the JobSeeker allowance of $1100 a fortnight is not suddenly halved to the old Newstart rate.he has been less adamant about that timetableFrydenberg made a virtue of spending 16.4 per cent of GDP on the total stimulus, but the missing $60 billion means he is not doing as much as he thought. He could spend the money in other ways to gain the same lift.

CroweDM How convenient.. are they getting a pay rise

CroweDM They will never admit to any mistake, never have and never will....

CroweDM It’s not spare money for goodness sake. It is borrowed.

CroweDM embarrassing for treasury mandarins They have PhD in economic n yet no better than primary school kids

CroweDM Corrupt

CroweDM Why I’m not surprised.

CroweDM BS ! Please 🙄

CroweDM Must have found a fair bit of cash down the benches in the parliament chamber just like I find the odd coin or two down the back of my sofa.

CroweDM Taylor: I didn’t download it Morrison: I didn’t approve sportrorts Cash: I didn’t call the AFP Liu: I didn’t breach AEC Cormann: I didn’t know I hadn’t paid airfares Canavan: I didn’t know Mum signed me up Frydenberg: I didn’t know about the extra $60b auspol JoshFrydenberg

CroweDM Political heaven? Is your social media manager even reading the articles? Spend it now or later, it’s still will get spent ... 😑

CroweDM They sure are the better economic managers...

CroweDM I mean this is bloody embarrassing isn’t it?

CroweDM Bank error in your favour. Good news. The Government needs to cut back further and cancel JobKeeper to any cafe or restaurant with capacity of 20. Many such venues are refusing to open because they make more from JobKeeper than serving coffee. auspol

CroweDM Poor old JoshFrydenberg always looks as if he thinks someone is going to hit him

CroweDM Two words: Gas Subsidy

CroweDM It seems difficult to get an answer on how the $60b error was made: people are focusing on the applicant companies who made mistakes. But an error of this magnitude when the $130b stimulus was announced in March has nothing to do with companies who were trying to fill out forms.

CroweDM ScottMorrisonMP JoshFrydenberg NO CONFIDENCE

CroweDM Don't hold your breath. This government's bread and butter is callousness and cruelty. Don't expect any largesse for the 'undeserving'.

CroweDM This would be Avery different headline if it was the ALP. Another Morrison government clusterf*ck war roomed with corporate media. Appalling.

CroweDM Thank Christ for that

CroweDM AngusTaylorMP JoshFrydenberg How about the math error with oil. Australia outsources its oil reserve problem to the US

CroweDM I think the Australian government just found a $60b note in the back pocket of its pants it was wearing last night

CroweDM It means the don’t have to print quite as much new money which devalues our savings, our pensions and our income. Governments never have money ‘up their sleeve’!

CroweDM ScottyFromMarketing

CroweDM Either deliberately mean, despite their generous announcements, or a massive $60 bill stuff up. Better economic managers right here. LNPfail

CroweDM At least it’s good news. Whichever way people may spin it.

Governments ‘very quickly get addicted to new political powers' | Sky News AustraliaThe Australian public must continue to “pressure” our leaders on the lifting of coronavirus restrictions as governments “very quickly get addicted to any new powers they are given” says Sky News host Chris Kenny. \n\nSome states have eased lockdown restrictions earlier than anticipated due to the low number of new COVID-19 infections. \n\nHowever, Mr Kenny said some state premiers are beginning to “sound like kindergarten teachers” after SA Premier Stephen Marshall said the government is “rewarding” the public for their outstanding efforts. \n\n“Allowing people to go about their lives and open their businesses and earn money and pay tax is not rewarding them,” Mr Kenny said. \n\n“What is happening to these politicians, have they forgotten they work for the voters”. \n Are you talking about this Or We own the country - not corrupt politicians ! Premiers AnnastaciaMP DanielAndrewsMP and marshall_steven are merely humble puppets of their highly-payed medical bureaucrats. springst saparli qldjobs
