McDonald's employs over 115,000 people across Australia - many of them young, low paid, and in their first jobs. This will help lift standards for all those who tirelessly show up, but rarely get a fair deal. Unlike the Liberals & Nationals, who fought our reforms at every…
My column for @abcnews - where are we going to find 34 sq kms of land per year in the suburbs to build houses? Golf courses? Parks? Race tracks? Boosting supply alone is not the answer to affordability. abc.net.au/news/2025-07-0…
NTEU win for casual academics . Monash University failed to pay casual tutors for student consultation. Federal Court says this breaches EAs and Fair Work Act. Monash sophistry on definitions of tutorial work and NTEU legal standing rejected. Sector-wide effects will flow

A $60m budget mistake (in @ourANU's favour), $30m of previously unrevealed spending reductions, $13m from CHM, $20m+ from voluntary separations... There is no financial rationale for further staff cuts by ANU Leadership.

VC at Western Sydney, George Williams suggests that regulation of VC salaries is beyond Commonwealth powers. But this is an obfuscation. Fixing maximum salaries can be tied to Federal grants as was the case from the 1960s until the late 80s. So let’s debate the issue its merits.
