Aus needs to change its orders for some of its F35 orders to F35b, then they can work off UK aircraft carriers , one of which is coming your way soon to project power and influence
Europe is funding the war not Chelsea football club

Unemployment rate almost double official figures
The official unemployment rate is masking hundreds of thousands of Australians who are out of work, Treasurer Josh Frydenberg says.
The official unemployment rate is 7.1 per cent — but that excludes people who are on JobKeeper but working zero hours, and people who have lost their job but are not actively looking for a new one.
Mr Frydenberg explained to the ABC's RN this morning that when you take into account those factors, the chunk of Australians out of work is almost twice as large as the official figure suggests.
"If you use the term effective unemployment, which is not just the unemployed in the official statistics, but also those people who have left the labour force and those who are working zero hours, then number's more like 13.3 per cent," he said.
"It was even higher back in April, at around 15 per cent."
Surprisingly honest by the Government on the jobs figures.

If you apply the same definition as in the 1980's then we are supposedly closer to 25% (and were greater than 10% before COVID-19). Youth unemployment even higher.

You are right. It is the underemployment issue. However, the point still stands that we are now, and have been for years saying how we have been getting unemployment down when the biggest change was in the changes to the definitions. Why do you think wage growth is so low - people know that there are no jobs out there, especially for anyone over 50 or under 25.

Also agree that there no jobs out there.

Is Daniel Andrews still Premier? Why hasn’t this clown stepped down yet? Why are they and the media trying to cover up the link to the BLM protests?
We had Covid under control. Life was returning to normal. Our national economy wasn’t going to sink. Then the Left decided to go and fuck everything up. Blood on their hands.

You've become a parody of your former self rusty. I remember every now and then you'd actually make a point about something that had merit, now all you do is lay out cheap bait to try and get a reaction so you can continue to engage in lazy left vs right whataboutism.

It’s absolutely appalling to see a Premier that is so incompetent and has caused so much pain, mayhem and caused the second wave of COVID just because he was too woke to stop the BLM protests this bringing the entire country to its knees once again.
The guy should resign because he has disgraced the office and disgraced Australia and put us all in danger. Absolutely appalling!

Trump releasing a Taliban terrorist who turned his gun on his allies, murdering three Aussie soldiers, and Scomo is too much of a simp to Trump to stand up to him about it.
If this was a Labor government standing by while a murderer of Australian soldiers walked free the Murdoch rags would be up in arms on the front page, but instead it's gone through the 24 hour news cycle almost unnoticed.
