Ah, more honesty from the only trustworthy govt department. It’s actually shocking how many Liberal supporters remain even after they’re going full tilt into culture war bullshit. A pity Rudd’s media royal commission proposal didn’t go anywhere. We need to break up those cologmorates and enforce citizenship for ownership.

It’s really sad to see. You would think those in Labor would know first-hand how batshit insane their colleagues are across the aisle and leap at the opportunity to right the ship while they’ve got the chance. Doesn’t it suck to feel powerless in Opposition compared to Government? Faffing around and not addressing cost of living means voters get upset and will take it out on them; “Opposition don’t win elections, Governments lose them”. Labor hasn’t been known for the past couple of decades to hold government as long as the LNP, so they will be pushed out with nothing to their name at this rate; I don’t think anybody is going to remember getting double medications per script, even if that’s really handy for me personally. Since they hid the Federal ICAC from the public eye that’s not going to generate any political capital for them either.

They’re banking on using the Voice as another legacy trophy but it has nothing on Medicare, which hasn’t quite been as gutted as the NDIS or NBN, just from it’s scope I think. They’re also just hoping that it’s going to pass, but if it doesn’t? They have nothing to show. Will we suddenly see a flurry of legislation if it fails, to save face? That seems like madness.

Always a pleasure!

I love juice media, and Giordano is an amazing, incisive, and empathic person, but this one misses the mark at a pretty critical time unfortunately. A lot of people are calling out The Juice Media specifically, but people who support Greens-adjacent policy in general, of using rhetoric rather than pragmatism. It’s the repeated line of “well parties like this aren’t in a position to govern”, and by extension, the policies too.

This isn’t true though. In the longer form content, Giordano has repeatedly asked experts about detailed advice and the HGAs have often been excellent summaries. They are not the sort of media you would attack without looking like a fool. Here, however, they’ve left themselves open, right after FriendlyJordies accused them of talking rubbish. It’s frustrating to think that FJ might be convincing people.

I really really hope Juice have some follow-up ads which leave their signature indelible mark with the “Labor faithful”. I understand it’s harder to make a concise caricature of a party which is halfway reasonable (Utopia does that better), but this is a time when Juice really need to slay.
