with it just use it on political campaigns to get re-elected enough is enough. Alan Mosley Yamba FINALLY, AN ENDGAME witnessing the end game of the totally disgraced Morrison government? They are now selfdestructing, literally tearing themselves apart; it’s like watching the death throes of a dying beast. If Morrison had an ounce of integrity, he would call an election and end this train

It’s seriously bad when a Liberal Premier badmouths a Liberal PM. in the middle of an emergency by referring to him in text messages as a “horrible person more concerned with politics than people”, “she did not trust the PM. who was actively spreading lies”. A cabinet minister replied, describing Morrison as a “fraud and complete psycho obsessed with petty political point scoring”. But it actually gets worse, with more leaked emails from the Deputy PM. Barnaby Joyce describing Morrison as a “hypocrite and liar, I have never trusted him, and I dislike how he earnestly rearranges the truth to a lie”. It would be beyond comprehension how
increasingly dangerous potholes whilst maintaining one of the highest rating systems in our region simply cannot be making goodwill gestures regardless of the Bonafede’s off the intended recipient. Such a goodwill gesture condemns poorly housed residents to include housing costs at the expense of putting a nourishing meal on the table and that sort of Surely, it’s time to put the greater happiness of the most affected people ahead of the selective inspiration of a now defunct council which seemed rarely to step outside their opinionated world into the reality off roads which seem to be creating dwellings for homeless groundhogs.

OIL PETROL It’s about time America, Australia, and Europe out trade embargoes on OPEC countries unless they up production of petrol. In addition, Australia should use its own fuel reserves and take of the petrol excise which is around a dollar a litre this is criminal, and they don’t
a sign an election is coming up. The only thing is the federal government has failed us miserably during the covid pandemic and does not deserve another four years in government even his deputy Barnaby Joyce has called the prime minister a liar and hypocrite so why should we Joe public trust him when his own cabinet doesn’t. We know all liberal national party members are card carrying Machiavellian scumbags that will stop at nothing to get their own way and hold on to power. But like covid we have the chance to eradicate them at the next election and boost our lives for the better given the cost of living is so outrageously high with petrol the number one expense that gets passed on to everything else in transport costs. This government must go at the next election. Alan Mosley Yamba

VOTE BUYING Yes, you can tell it’s an election with the redneck liberal stooges throwing money around to buy votes especially in Queensland where it won the last federal election. Spending money on the barrier Reef then opening the international border so far north Queensland

We’d love to hear from you!
by MPs who cannot stand each other and if Australia is ever to emerge from the pandemic and resume some sort of normality, they need to stop looking at themselves and begin governing the country. The aged care sector is in complete chaos, the health system is on the verge of collapse, wages and living standards are in decline, childcare and education are becoming unaffordable. We must have a government that takes these issues seriously and is capable of delivering them permanently, not as a

media who continually push the labour- green barrow. The recent press club address by Prime Minister, Mr Morrison was loaded with “gotcha questions”, the chair Lora Tingle continually asked questions of a dubious nature despite being expected to remain neutral. It has been described as a home game for labourgreens at the press club and an away game for the Government, which is glaringly obvious. Take a look at each way (Albanese) appearance a few weeks earlier, it’s easy to see what side the chair and journalists’ bat for. A total disgrace which should be condemned globally. Mr Morrison said he had the blow torch applied to him and expects the same treatment for each way, (Albanese) however we all know the results, the labour -green coalition get a free media ride on every occasion. The same applies to the fake independents who
are running against Liberal seats only, are same billionaire and spruik from the same song sheet, a concerted disingenuous disgrace on their part. Surely the smart majority of this great country can see the duplicity being dealt out by this immoral mob. I shudder to think how long an Albanese-Bandt government would take to bankrupt our country. Take the shutting down of coal and gas alone, as I have asked before, what are they going to replace the billions worth of revenue with?, what industry’s will replace it?. If the Laborgreen coalition win Government get ready for blackouts, spiralling electricity prices, a gutwrenching drop in our living standards, just to start with. G.
