Nationalise the mining industry. Not the coal mines. Shut those down completely. But the iron ore, bauxite, tin, nickel and copper .. those resources belong to all Australians and we all should profit from that wealth. You want to be a billionaire? .. go invent something.

Sad to watch the British waking up to the fact that Brexit had nothing to do with the improved economic prospects of the nation, and was really about the racism of not wanting Eastern Europeans to work in their cafes for minimum wage.

@BootsnAllPhotos I think that level of self-entitled narcicissm is incapable of comprehending reality as it is. Once the behaviour's been called out, it needs to be vehemently denied at all costs, lest the false-self mask crumbles and all is lost.. He truly believes he's the victim. He has to.

The 'Cost of Living Crisis' is a wonderful euphamism. Makes it sound like a 'natural crisis' ... like an earthquake or hurricane .. something done to us which we have no control over. Nobody wants to call it by it's name. It's a man-made economic consequence of greed.
