Working Australians get nothing!

Albo pulled his lame Medicare card stunt at the National Press Club, 30 April 2025.

From the National Press Club: Peter Dutton made a mistake by refusing to address the National Press Club this week. In recent memory, the two other (electoral) losers who decided to campaign in the final week rather than address the Press Club were Bill Shorten and Scott Morrison. I rest my case.

Albo is a smooth performer, and today he didn’t miss a beat. But make no mistake, if you are not on welfare, or you are not a member of a union, then Albo’s campaign slogan could rightly be summed up as:

Working Australians get nothing!

Writing in the Morning Double Shot newsletter, Terry Barnes had this to say:

As Michael de Percy points out, in this election campaign, working Australians get nothing from Labor. As a late Boomer, I’ll go further: my generation gets nothing from either side, except abuse. You see, we’re seen as on the way out, although we’re still the biggest generation on the electoral roll. It’s Millennials and Gen Zs they want, and both sides are happy to tell those younger voters that Boomers are stealing their homes and wealth, instead of thanking us for creating both for them. Message to Boomers; when this election is over, go forth and spend your kids’ inheritance! They deserve it!
