No.Well geez, think I may have had a point?
this thread is absolutely pointless...
Speaking of mines..the one proposed next door to adani has been put on permanent hold, costing thousands of jobs.
Might be time for QLD folk to quit relying on mining and diversify.
There still is that First Nations referendum talk going on, hope that is all it stays at.The election result has given Australia a massive breather from so many annoying political tropes, cliches and radical left agendas.
No more republic talk.
No more Indigenous third chamber of Parliament talk.
No more "saving Medicare" talk.
No more Adani BS that most Australians can't understand.
No more "no climate change action from the Libs" talk.
No more "not enough Lib women" talk.
Bliss.
All confected issues formulated in the Canberra bubble by snobby and pretentious journos that have no idea about middle Australia.
So, my question to all - what ARE the issues that will come to define the next period in Australian politics?
This will also depend on who Labor elects as their leader, but what will they campaign on?
Journalists too lazy to do own research and just used social media which confirmed their own opinions as to what was likelyWhat do you mean? Social media doesn’t make predictions. Facebook as an entity doesn’t predict the outcome of an election.
I think you are confusing journalists on social media with social media.

When we have politicians like Bob Katter aligning himself with Nazis and Albo having a bromance with him.
Adani will be a huge issue if it gets the go ahead...not sure why people think it will be a jobs bonanza? Adani has stated that it plans to run the mine with the least amount of employees possible, actually, they stayed it'll be fully automated.
People thinking they're going to employ 10,000 people are ******* nuts.
Adani bloke under oath said it was around 1600 and seeing as lying to their Honour has consequences that lying to the general public doesn't, I'd say that's probably closer to the truth.
It's on the record. You think the Adani bloke was perjuring himself?There is a big difference between one mine vs the actual project representing a doubling of Australia’s coal exports
$30b/1,600 doesn’t quite make sense does it?

Has Big Bad Bustling Blair jumped from Frase's sinking ship and onto Bob's?View attachment 693268
This is bob Katter with Blair Cottrell and Tom Sewell.
Got anything else smarty pants or should we talk about Fraser Anning to refresh your memory?
So is 1600 jobs the only benefit of this massive mining operation? No other financial benefit to the Commonwealth or Queensland?
yep
the total production for the basin is expected to be 300mT per annum. At $100 a ton, that's $30b per annum.
with a mining royalty rate of 7%, that's $2.1b per annum into the Queensland coffers.
add to that payroll tax of just under 5%, plus mining lease rents, PAYG etc
not to mention port infrastructure, rail, roads, power systems and an additional 2% to GDP

Exactly. These same old parrot lines about "it's automated! only 1600 jobs!" are those coming from people who hear nothing else apart from a long list of Labor politicians at present that know only to say "jobs! jobs! jobs!".
If Adani have lied about the employment benefits of the project which they have, repeatedly; what else have they fibbed about?
