Hey, ho, let's go! Illustrator: Jim Pavlidis Read today's letters to the editor here

I am rather puzzled as to why people are getting tied up in knots over the thought of the stage three tax cuts being axed all because an election “promise” was made. Why do we give so much weight to this word, particularly as governments are well known for breaking them? The general public has to realise that decisions made while in opposition do not and should not necessarily translate into what needs to be done when in government.

Those who voted for the Albanese government are no doubt accustomed to having to make changes to financial plans in their daily lives as circumstances change, and therefore can understand that responsible governments must do likewise. Of course, they are exceptionally busy on many matters but where are they on the environment? BarbaraWhy do politicians call this a “promise”, to be set in stone? It’s a “policy setting” made under conditions prevailing at the time.

Progressive churches no longer demand that members must sign onto a rigid statement of faith that includes areas such as sexual orientation, abortion or euthanasia. This is certainly the situation with independent churches unaligned with the more traditional protestant denominations. I am curious to know how the football club would have responded if Thorburn was a member of another major faith.In his report from the financial services royal commission four years ago, commissioner Kenneth Hayne said: “I thought it telling that Mr Thorburn treated all issues of fees for no service as nothing more than carelessness combined with system deficiencies.”

Radical reform of the Security Council is therefore a must for the international community. Any member country conducting either an aggressive war or covertly supporting such a nation should be expelled. The power of veto should be abolished. And the Security Council should include middle-ranking powers, which are more disposed towards peace than war.
