I’m quite sick & tired of politicians being able to accurately talk about women in biological terms while Australian women are punished for understanding the exact same thing in other contexts where it *also* matters. Jacinta Allan is correct in just about everything she is saying here - a rarity for her - the problem is that this accuracy about women & girls is not being extended to our other rights - spaces, sport, services, lesbian rights - and is instead dismissed by everyone in her government & party as a “culture war” and we’re classed as extremists, bigots or far right for acknowledging the very same basic reality that she is: there are some rights needed for women & girls that are directly associated with our biology. Obviously, men who claim to be women don’t have the same endometriosis issues that Jacinta and millions of other women suffer through on a daily basis. There is one reason for that: they’re not women. It is also worth noting that, during Jacinta’s leadership, school girls were ignored whenever they pleaded for their own bathrooms, change rooms and sports, lesbian rights were further dismantled and at least one woman in a Victorian prison was sexually assaulted by a violent man, in her cell purely because he was claiming to be a woman. But, of course, Jacinta didn’t mention that.

🚨 START-UP WARNING: Australian tech entrepreneur and former Shark Tank judge @sbxr explains why Labor’s capital gains tax changes could see the next Canva founded by an Australian, but built somewhere else. Make risk less rewarding, and capital moves.

Elon Musk should pay no tax. In fact, poor people should be taxed and their money given to him. He's proved himself to allocate capital way more effectively than any government could. He will generate untold value with the money. Poor people are terrible at allocating capital. I mean do you want robots and holidays on Mars or do you want a load of used scratch cards?

I expect @JEChalmers effort to lower housing cost will have exactly the same impact as Chris Bowen's effort to lower the temperature of the Earth.

I stand with Sall Grover who has been ordered to pay up to $120,000 for correctly identifying a man as a man in Australia. They punish the dissenters with functioning eyes. They've made speaking the truth is some form of hate crime. And even still, he's a man.

Bingo

You have a great idea Mortgage your home Open a small business Work 7 days a week for 15 years Create a profitable business You’re a winner! Until you decide to sell Then the government turns up Wants half Government took no risk Government worked zero days

Liar.

Still makes me laugh that @JuliaGillard wrote a book on misogyny and feminism, while she single handedly demoted every women in Australia to a second class citizen. THIS is your legacy Julia, you should hang your head in shame.

'Roxanne' Tickle is a fucking MAN. Australia has lost its mind. #IstandwithSalGrover

Look at all the women helping him to destroy their rights.

The concerns commentators have about the CGT discount and Negative Gearing are created because our income tax rates are too high. If Australia’s top marginal rate was around 25-30%, then all the anomalies and structuring incentives disappear.

If you’re angry about the disgusting “Tickle v Giggle” verdict - and I’m furious about it - you will be even more furious to learn that the TAXPAYER funded Tickle’s legal fees via the Human Rights Commission. Yes. That’s correct.

If you need 3 judges to say you're a woman, you aren't one.

Please @elonmusk invest in Giggle or buy it or whatever billionaires do. The world needs a female-only app and @salltweets is being harassed by the Australian legal system for trying to create one.

An entire country gave up women’s rights instead of telling this bloke ‘No.’

Western society is currently divided between people who know this is a man and are prepared to say so and those who know this is a man but lie out of obedience to an ideology. There is no third option. Literally nobody on earth thinks "Roxanne Tickle" is actually a woman.

Hey Jim & Albo, Keep your hands off my business. You weren’t there for the sleepless nights, the stress, the risk, or the moments where everything was on the line. I built this in the dark. You don’t get to show up at the finish line with your hand out. Not one cent. You didn’t build it. You didn’t back it. You’re not entitled to it. Get fucked.

🚨 BREAKING: Australian Federal Court rules ‘trans women’ are REAL women Devastating loss for biological Australian women as Federal Court dismisses appeal in Giggle v Tickle, awards damages and rules in favour of 'trans woman' wanting access to women-only spaces. Full report: rebelne.ws/43aU5hw

This is crazy: the federal government is using all the NDIS savings and almost all the NDIS savings + tax increases to pay itself due to a massive $19.6 billion cost blow-out on the bureaucracy over the next four years compared to forecasts in last year’s budget. Put another way, over the four overlapping Budget years from 2025–26 to 2028–29, the government has increased the cost of running the bureaucracy by $19.6bn — enough to consume virtually all (99%) of the $19.8bn in NDIS savings it claims, 93% of those savings plus its negative-gearing/CGT tax grab, and 14.5 times the property/investor tax increase itself... "The average staffing level increases from 215,900 this year to 217,300 in 2026-27. Since the Albanese government came to power in 2022, the size of the public service has ballooned by a quarter." afr.com/policy/economy/publi…
