    Wow, what an absolute garbage person. What she demands is nothing less than axing any kind of social security just so she and other billionairs like her can make even more money. And then to have the gaul to claim that the populace is just too stupid to understand why that is supposed to be a good thing.

    How dare we vote how we wanted to instead of how she wanted us to! Most people in this country are savvy enough to realise that what benefits a billionaire isn’t necessarily going to benefit us. It doesn’t take any particular genius to look overseas and see for ourselves what’s going on.

    Now we all love a good chuckle at Clive Palmer’s money thrown down the drain, but spare a ha-ha for Rinehart’s $500,000 in donations to Liberal parties.

    Liberal senator Alex Antic, however, echoed Rinehart’s argument.

    “Presumably, the left wing of the party will find new and ­inventive ways to postulate that we must lean further left to succeed,” he said. “The truth is that the party has spent too long pandering to the false narratives of net zero, globalisation and mega immigration.”

    What a daft cunt, the liberals under Howard massively increased immigration. He speaks if the libs donors from the real estate lobby and the business council would let them touch immigration!

    And as for Gina opening her mouth in an anti immigrant direction… The same one who wanted to bring in migrants for her mine? SMH. https://www.actu.org.au/media-release/rinehart-plan-to-offshore-australian-jobs-shows-worlds-richest-woman-cares-only-for-profits/

    It’s pretty funny that Gina asserts, or perhaps even believes, that the typical Aussie wants to cut government wastage more than Rinehart wastage.

    Oh, they have seen in the US where conservatism is leading to. I’d say they understood perfectly.
