‘Critical’ for Australians to track super fund balancesIndustry Super Director of Advocacy Georgia Brumby discusses the 'critical' importance for Australians to choose and track their super fund balances. “We are encouraging them, Australians, this summer … get in touch with your super fund, find out how much you have in your account,” Ms Brumby told Sky News Australia. “This research really does show that it’s critical to engage in early to get that better outcome over the long term.” People need to understand how their fund is performing because if it has made a loss from investment the the peoples actual pension will have been reduced which will decrease their pension on retirement!

Australians need more ‘information’ on the Voice before making the ‘very important decision’Nationals Senator David Littleproud says Australians are “fair people” and will make decisions based on information “put in front of them” when deciding on the Voice to Parliament. “We have a different media landscape than we did the last time we had a referendum,” Mr Littleproud told Sky News host James Morrow. “It’s important that there is equity, and if we want to validate the decision of the Australian people – the Australian people should be given all the information in a fair and transparent way. “If you’re asking the Australian people to make a very, very important decision … they should be given the tools and the information to be able to make that in the sanctity of home, to be able to do that in a personal way that they then get comfort with. “When a government doesn’t provide that environment and infrastructure, then they failed.” The WEF can go get $%^t That's my voice. He is right on this one. The voting public wont and don’t need to wade through the so called tabled documents, running to 100s of pages. They need to know key points, enough to make their informed decisions.
