No. If tax payers pay for the disabled to access prostitutes because sex is a basic human right, then ugly people should be able to do the same.

If those pushing for nuclear energy are unwilling to live near a reactor or waste storage, then they should not be pushing for it. Once again, they are expecting others to bear the burden.

Funny I moved out of Sydney 9 years ago to a regional area in Northern NSW and since I've been here of always had to pay for the Dr. I think there's one possibly two in the area that bulk bill but I have to drive 40 mins too and takes 3-4 days to get in.

c'mon guys give it a fuckin rest! the pcr test is going to be removed as a diagnostic test from the WHO at the end of december because they cannot distinguish between an active virus or a dead one nor can it determine the difference between the flu and covid. I'd even go as far as saying that the mutations are due to vaccine escape because they are NOT VACCINES! stop trying to trick all these poor people that dont know how to think from themselves. and if you are only getting your news to read out from your bosses you seriously ought to do some more research yourselves because u are just moronic. an anagram of omicron! errrrrrr

Excellent Podcast, the federal government thinks people relying on welfare are a burden to the community but giving the wealthy money is an "investment".

I would like to bring to your attention that "Close the Gap" and "Closing the Gap" are two different things. one is a non-government push for change and the other is a response to it...

hey, stop cutting people off when they're talking, it sounds like you're more keen on cutting someone off than listening to them.
