Aww come on. Are people still falling for the LNP and Murdoch press's lies about Gillard's climate policy? It was a fixed-price carbon period leading into an emissions trading scheme. Exactly what economists recommended at the time. It was *not* a carbon tax. It also *worked*. It saw our carbon emissions reduce significantly during the time it was enacted. Gillard did the right thing here, except that she didn't push back against the lies hard enough that apparently people still believe it today. Sometimes out of ignorance, sometimes as a deliberate way to try and blame the Greens in order to push a pro-Labor agenda (looking at you: Jordan Shanks). The Greens also did the right thing by blocking Rudd's policy. His own treasury modelling said it would have no effect for decades. *Decades*. And it had terms written into it that if we wanted to ratchet it up so it actually _would_ have an effect, we'd have to _pay the polluters_ to do it! Gillard was an excellent politician, and it's because she was willing to compromise to get the best policy past Parliament. Rudd was an egotistical arse who is almost as much to blame for our lost decade in left-leaning policy and climate action as Murdoch and the LNP are. (The fact that he's an egotistical arse whose colleagues didn't like working with him is a not-insignificant part of why he was ousted in the first place.)

Robodebt, PWC and the UK Post office scandal and their are People Walking the the streets their lives untouched by what they got away with should be serving serious Jail Time

I lost my brother, and nearly me, because of the errors that Robodebt created. I will never ever forgive each and any one of the persons involved with the creation and execution of Robodebt. Long story short, my brother and I were separately slapped with absurdly high amounts (over $140,000) of false fines on top of baseless notices of money owed. No body in any echelons of government was able to explain or justify what was going on, and nor could they really help. Eventually, after months and months of battling this, it did ultimately get resolved - but sadly, the amount of stress, uncertainty, harassment, anxiety, and everything in between, got the best of my brother. He was an amazing man, a tremendous loss to our country. I nearly was thinking of going myself, because no one -- absolutely no one, can understand the pain and anguish this Robodebt brought other than the ones who experienced it. So, Mr. ScoMo and all those who supported this scheme, the passing of my brother and hundreds of other victims, is on you.

1:05 Rudd or Gillard? *GILLARD FOR SURE!* Rudd was a total dud!

A referendum to break up monopolies? *I'd have voted in favour of that with GUSTO!* (3:00)

2:11 Who would I have voted for? If I had been alive back then, I would not have got a vote as voting rights were, as in Britain, only for the elites and ordinary citizens would've been disenfranchised.

Opening statement *DEAD WRONG!* Australia actually came into existence as a nation on *1st January, 1901,* the *VERY FIRST DAY OF A NEW CENTURY!*

12:07 Howard The Coward *DELIBERATELY SABOTAGED* the Republic Referendum by having the Constitutional Convention Delegates half-chosen by public vote and half-appointed by government. The appointed half was almost completely monarchist with the view that enough monarchists would be chosen by public vote to tip the scales in favour of the monarchist side.

7:18 Howard or ScoMo? *NEITHER! THEY BOTH BELONG IN PRISON FOR DIFFERENT REASONS!*

The gun buyback after the Port Arthur Massacre was *THE ONLY THING* that Howard The Coward got right. *HE GOT EVERYTHING ELSE UTTERLY WRONG* and *TRULY DESERVED* to be booted out of office in 2007.

15:59 Which side would I have come down on? Julia Gillard's, of course! Rudd was a complete *DUD* as he "cut-and-run" on the climate control deal instead of seeing it through. Julia was badly maligned by the opposition, and also by her own party as well as that obnoxious *loud-mouth,* Alan Jones on 2GB(GB = Gutter Broadcasting). Yes Julia made mistakes, but she was probably our best PM since John Curtin!

It was the wrong name. It should be called SCOMODEBT

14:51 Howard losing his seat of Benelong at the 2007 Federal Election was a *champagne moment!* Howard the Coward got *EXACTLY WHAT HE DESERVED!* Ex-ABC journalist & 7.30 Report presenter, Maxine McHew was the one to unseat Howard The Coward, and although she served only one term, she is still a *TRUE HERO* to Australia. A statue should be erected in her honour!

Like trump, all this proves is some are above the law, these people should be in prison.

Yes he created putin. Yeltsin as a us lapdog, posing as a democratic leader but acting as an autocratic one. He drove the russian people into poverty by removing price checks and letting them go unregulated. People were just selling everything they owned for a fraction if its value. To make things worse, during privatization, the russian people were handled vouchers to buy stocks in different companies, but because everyone was in such a bad financial condition they sold everything for a fraction of its value to oligarchs, creating the oligarch problem it has today. Boris also demonstrated he wasnt a democratic leader by shelling his oppositiin in parliament. Fuck yeltsin. And especially, fuck tony blair

7:30 Who would I support for leader of the ALP? That's a no-brainer! *Anthony Albanese, of course!* Keating was a treasonous bastard! An ABC man.... A = Arrogant; B = Belligerent; C = Conceited! And also add O = Obnoxious!

6:31 Selling the Commonwealth Bank into private hands was an *ACT OF TREASON!* Keating should've been stripped of his position as PM and *EXPELLED FROM THE LABOR PARTY!*

Politicians complain about unemployment yet Build Canberra parliment from imported materials then dismantle the ship builders to buy billions of worthless Subs from france that wouldve been 35yrs out dated now usa ? Aussie built saves jobs creates engineer's

Nothing will happen to these criminals. Different laws for politicians and rhe rich.

What about the scandal with covid and the "vaccine's"? 🤡💉

It was about stopping welfare scamming. No one gives a rats about the mealy mouths

I'm in Victoria I can't remember if we ever got taught about ned jelly, my dad told me that we are distant relatives from the Kelly family and his mum's maiden name seems to tell me that's where it came from, he did have an irreplaceable piece of jewelry that I brought to primary school and apparently lost in show and tell which makes me hurt inside to this day, only thing I got left is some report I made when I was very young, but makes me proud to hear he still gets mentioned to this day.

Fadden was right. John Curtin was a superb PM Despite being a Victorian where most bad ideas in Aussie politics come from.

a load of bs. i know people who had 25 and 30 grand child support agency debts wiped because of some sooks that couldnt handle owing money to the taxpayer

Those high-ranking public servants responsible will get away Scott Free, just like Robodebt's father Morrison.

00:12 interesting how ABC newsreaders would speak with "received pronunciation", and attempt to outdo the BBC... Was that policy of the ABC at the time, or did it represent the way a certain class would speak in Australia?

Imagine how many poor cnts topped themselves because they already lived with depression and sucked at paperwork anyways.

Why do we have an animated giraffe narating this?

Ahem. Paul Keating.

This was truly a low point of Australian democracy and suggests that ministers should pass an IQ and social intelligence test before taking the appointment. The whole idea that a machine could run a government program and make the decisions that affect people's lives without human oversight, was something only a sociopath could seriously consider much less mandate. I thought Australia was better than that. Hopefully we learnt the lesson.

My robo dept came about from a short time I was on medical welfare while still working part time trying to get back in the workforce full time. Not like I was a bludger, but they still took the money out of my much needed tax return. Times were hard before they did that, and I had to scale back a holiday with my kids because of it. My youngest was heartbroken and ever since hasn't spoken to me that much.

2:35 In State Government, the Upper House is called the *Legislative Council* while the lower house is the *Legislative Assembly.* Too often I hear State lower house members refer to themselves as "M.P.s" which is *ABSOLUTELY WRONG!* They are M.L.A.s(Members of the Legislative Assembly) while upper house members are M.L.C.s(Members of the Legislative Council). The term *Senate* applies *ONLY IN THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT'S UPPER HOUSE AND NOWHERE ELSE IN AUSTRALIA!*

Sonic Corey was frugal and budgeted for the winter lull he wouldn’t need welfare?

Oops, mistake, probably pointed out. 47 billion, not 4.7 billion fttp. Whereas LNP only offered 21 billion fttn.

Sir, good work

Sick ain't it no accountability. Lives lost

"Income averaging" under Labor was used to highlight the POSIBILITY of fraud. A human was then used to check if fraud actually took place and debts only raised once fraud was proven. That was not how the Lib/Nat Coalition did it.

The most disgusting act any political party has ever unleashed on innocent people - there should be recriminations !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Its actually incorrect to say "The automated system often generated incorrect debt notices due to flawed data matching" as not one of the fraudulent debts identified was done so using any form of procedural fairness. It also involved multiple violations of law. So technically and legally, NONE of the notices and NONE of the debts were correct.

Robodebt was one of many scandals for which mendacious Morrison was responsible.

No one in power held accountable , absolute disgrace . And so much for the new secret federal ICAC not even going to investigate

What broke Australia was giving billions to businesses during Covid... putting us in a TRILLION $ Debt

Tax payer's money f=$k off bludgers get a job you c#@ks..

Robodebt was started by Shorten/ALP in 2011 to catch an extra 65,000 people to help Swan/ALP get a surplus budget. Coalition in 2016 took Labors scheme to a fully automated scheme ""Media Release: New data matching to recover millions in welfare dollars 29 June 2011 A new data matching initiative between Centrelink and the Australian Taxation Office is expected to claw back millions of dollars from welfare recipients who have debts with the Australian Government. Minister for Human Services Tanya Plibersek and Assistant Treasurer Bill Shorten today said the new initiative will enhance Centrelink’s debt recovery ability and is expected to recover more than $71 million over four years....... Mr Shorten said the tax garnishee process had been carried out manually once a year for the past 15 years and involved a significant amount time on the part of the departmental officers. "The automation of this process will free up resources and result in more people being referred to the tax garnishee process, retrieving more outstanding debt on behalf of taxpayers," he said. He said more than $27.5 million was recovered from over 43,000 former Centrelink customers' tax refunds in the 2009/10 financial year through the tax garnishee process. "The new data matching link is expected to increase the number of former customers identified for this process by an additional 65,000, above current detection levels, over the four years."

He was a panic merchant. Invading Australia was never a strategic aim of Japan, but it was to isolate it. We knew this because we had cracked all the Japanese codes. The Japanese war aim was Burma, to block supplies going to China (RoC, not PRC), and to invade India. Curtin complied with all the Axis hopes to panic Curtin into opting out of WWII. After the Battle of Coral Sea Japan simply didn’t have the naval resources to invade Australia, and Japanese army resources were in Burma and China. There were six fully equipped divisions, including an armoured division, at sea, bound for Suez, ib July 1942. Churchill said, as in this WWII Memoirs, that these divisions would have been diverted to Australia if there was any realistic chance of Australia being invaded, but it was concluded that there was no chance of that. These six divisions arrived at Suez c.1st Sept 1942 and it was these six divisions which delivered the death blow to Rommel’s Afrika Korps at the Second Battle of Alamein in October 1942,- the turning point in the war against Germany and Italy. Read your history and see what was the Big Picture, and not the party political propaganda nonsense of Curtin at the time. As Churchill said, “Australian politicians were more interested in fighting each other than in fighting the enemy”.

This is not a failure of policy...it was a failure of bureaucracy. What a surprise.

Even working on the inside as a Contractor, it was known to be wrong.
