Um, you should tell Pauline, because that's not what she said at the National Press Club

Wouldn’t have to be paid if they split income, lowered taxes,put everyone on the same rate, make schools tax deductible

Paid maternity leave is literally the bare minimum babies and mothers deserve.

I don't support paid parental leave. I absolutely oppose it. But I oppose pretty much everything the government does, so it's in keeping with the distain I have for them. I also oppose all taxation as it is blatant theft.

He can go swiming with box jelly fish

Really Malcolm? "They get themselves pregnant and [the government will] have the same problems they did with the baby bonus, with people just doing it for the money,...This is not commonsense ­policy. I’ve gone through a bloody tough life myself as a single ­mother and held down a part-time job. I had no assistance, no help from anyone. But we have such a welfare handout mentality.” Pauline Hanson February 2017

I see Barnaby Joyce is recruiting new staff, planning another dip is he ?

Scrap net zero? Another reason not to vote for ON.

They say by contract they get 90 days with spouse per child and the multiple births a year and the divorce and re-marriage to diffent spouse with children plus 30 day leave and sixty days leave, they only work a few months out of the year, is that fair?

So she supports paid parental leave, she just votes against it at every turn?

So you support Labor now. Pauline Hanson has a history of opposing and voting against government-funded paid parental leave and paid parental leave equality for stay-at-home mothers and fathers.Her stance over the years aligns with the following timeline: Initial Legislation: When Australia’s baseline Paid Parental Leave (PPL) scheme was legislated, she was not in federal parliament (having lost her seat in 1998 and returning to the Senate in 2016). However, she has historically objected to such programs as a "welfare handout mentality". 2017 Omnibus Bill: She heavily opposed the expansion of the federal paid parental leave scheme, claiming at the time that women would get "pregnant for the money". Recent Policy Debates: She has also consistently opposed extending paid parental leave rights equally to stay-at-home parents and fathers. In a speech at the National Press Club, Hanson questioned why businesses should pay for employees not at work and suggested the system should be rolled back. Although she later clarified she supports the taxpayer-funded scheme and won't cut it, her ongoing opposition to mandated employer contributions and extended entitlements has kept her at odds with parental advocacy groups.

Ok. Let's just check the tape: “If women take time off and they are not paid their wages because they're not working, fair enough. Why should business pay? But they're not at work. That's the difference." Sounds like she's not interested in protecting paid parental leave to me.

Only if it comes out of the sovereign wealth fund she's creating from natural resources income.

We never got it 15 years ago, not sure what the big deal is, If you want to have a baby you need to afford to pay for one

Pauline speaks the truth

Dam straight and THATS WHAT SHE SAID .

Of course she does, she will always speak the truth and always be for Australians and Australia🩷 One Nation 🧡🧡🧡🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺

But 6 months is excessive.

You have never voted for it or voted to expand it. That is a fact.

Pauline Hanson for Prime Minister of Australia🇦🇺☮️🧡

She doesnt though...her voting record indicates she does, even if she says she does.

I would comment but it gets declined for no reason . They pick and choose comments to suit their friends .

Thank you, Pauline. You just covered everything that all Australians who want to get ahead are concerned about we love you.

thanks China, fair swap for our coal and iron ore.

“A windmill could spin until it falls apart and never generate as much energy as was invested in building it.”

6 AI data centres require vast amounts of electricity and water to power heavy graphics processing units (GPUs) and keep them from overheating. A single large-scale "hyperscale" AI facility (100 MW) uses as much power annually as \(100,000\) homes and consumes millions of gallons of water daily for cooling.The exact amount varies widely depending on location, cooling technology, and model size.Electricity ConsumptionChip Level: An advanced generative AI GPU can draw upwards of \(1,200 \text{ Watts}\) per chip, meaning a single server rack easily draws tens of thousands of watts.Facility Level: Projections indicate AI will drive data centre energy demand to roughly \(945 \text{ Terawatt-hours (TWh)}\) globally by 2030.Local Impact: In Australia, data centres already account for roughly 2% of the total energy on the National Electricity Market.Water ConsumptionDirect Use: AI centres require roughly \(25\text{ ML}\) of water per megawatt of capacity. A typical facility uses around \(300,000\) gallons daily, while massive centres can consume up to 5 million gallons—equivalent to a town of \(50,000\) residents.Indirect Use: Power plants (coal, gas, hydro) also use substantial water to generate the electricity powering these buildings.Cooling Alternatives: Water consumption varies depending on the cooling method. For example, some Google facilities use billions of gallons annually in water-cooled systems, while air-cooled sites use a tiny fraction of that.The footprint of this infrastructure is skyrocketing. You can read more about how this expansion impacts local grids on the Climate Council or explore UN research regarding sustainability on UNRIC.If you're interested in the environmental impact of AI data centres, I can:Provide details on the indirect water and power footprint of running specific modelsDiscuss emerging energy-efficiency optimizations in AI hardwareShare the projected carbon and water footprints expected by 2030 I am worried about this

Lose your costume.

Well the risk is when the turbines is working and then shedding the asbestos when the brakes are on how much more comon sence do you all bloody need . They have confirmed they have asbestos so we will get the fibres in the air eventually. So we should tell them to take these off the list don't get any and return what we have back .

The black market on the wood inside the blades. Can never be green.

Asbestos, is highly dangerous and can be life threatening, but can be considered totally safe, if the government says it is

As much as I feel he was trying to be honest I don't think he really knew the risks and statistics. Just stop the risk altogether. Across the board.

Mate came and play in Wittenoom

How many fines have been implemented?

It appears as we knew, Australia has good regulations and processes in place to combat asbestos coming into Australia and identifying area where the system has allowed some to slip through and resolved this. Roberts can now look for a little bit of spilt milk elsewhere.

I was pointing this out two years ago . About asbestos and the other carcinogens in the blades and the fact that they deteriorate and start shedding there poisons with in the first few years of commissioning. And the project agent refuted it and started sprouting on about recycling them. Well here some advice DONT GET INVOLVED IN THE RECYCLING OF THESE THINGS UNLESS YOU HAVE STUDIED THEM PROPERLY ☹️✌️

Any idea on the health issues from cola dust? Engine exhaust? Oil refineries?

So now they know (Chinese) only the documentation is checked .....not the product. Onya border force. I have a new word! "Farcecurity"

Ask them what they do with the wind turbines once they are broken? How do they dispose of them?

Regardless of a risk assessment. Asbestos was brought in to the country. So what company is paying the one million plus fine? And when do you expect to receive that money.

Even better get rid of wind turbines ffs

What about the people that are breathing it in that don't know. What about the workers going into the wind turbines for maintains with asbestos breaks being put in them. Have ant turbines been found on wind turbines.

A shame Bowen can't be held responsible after all he and his Dept are the ones directly initiating the importing of the turbines and their parts!

sounds like a documentary just answer the question who let that shit go in them and transport them

Well done.

I call bullshit on testing 😡😡😡🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺

Senator Malcolm Roberts So what is inside the wings? I thought it was asbestos too originally, then the Chinese have changed it to a soft wood component but also now being filled with other stuff. I may have misunderstood the documentary but seem all these wings are being used as landfill, what assurance are we being given that whatever is inside can actually breakdown and what is the breakdown period.

Very careful of what he is letting out

These need to be independently tested
