As I posted before he is defrauding the federal government and Centrelink and leeching off our taxes. It won't be difficult for Centrelink to figure out who is he - stupidity posting on public forums he is 77 old and married to a Thai 21 years, flying to Thailand twice per year, won't be difficult to triage. Many govt departments are starting to do data mining of publicly available info, that includes forums and Facebook.

Dob him in then, ring the hotline today! You know it makes sense, suits you down to a T! 🥺

It's possible the Greens will hold the balance of power, or it's a hung parliament.

Ahhhh, so the "haves" are ok, but as for the "have nots" well, who cares about them.  Sounds similar to a 3rd World Country.  :smile:

Both major parties have pledged to spend what the can't can't afford, if they are elected.

The Coalition released their election costings late yesterday two days before polling

Buried in the costings as a savings measure , anyone travelling overseas for more than 4 weeks will no longer receive their pension

Nothing about "grandfathering" clause for those already o/seas with portability

 

Be alert people
