‘Desperate attempt to buy popularity’: Albanese blasted over $300 energy rebate

GXO Strategies Director Cameron Milner has blasted Prime Minister Anthony Albanese for his $300 energy bill rebate which is a “desperate attempt” to “buy popularity”.
“This could actually end up being a big, fat Albo bribe this $300 because it’s going to billionaires,” Mr Milner told Sky News host Andrew Bolt.
“This guy is throwing cash in a desperate attempt to buy popularity.”

[@michaelmarsh2597]

@simplesimon182 That is a crock, and you know it. I pay the same bills, and the change is marginal. Every time we get a new budget or our government does something we don't agree with, we jump on the whinge wagon.

[@ro88o000o]

Morally and ethically it should be a payment of monetary support...wealthy people who own multiple properties should not be profiting from government support services... government support is just that ...its for those who need supporting ..government is there to help with subsidy for those less fortunate as Jackie Lambie says she doesnt need government support payments of $300.

[@1MisfitKiwi]

Its not real news it's a bribe so they don't care

[@billthewhovian]

Yeah, Sky News does. Not many do it's mainly due to the laws where these news organisations are responsible for what is said in the comment section. Which I personally don't like. I think people need to be able to put their opinion forward and discuss the news items. One other reason I think most don't allow comments is because people may have differing views to the people on whatever show. They have opinion pieces here and the comment section is always enabled, so those with differing opinions can voice those as well as those who agree with the presenters .

we'll all see come election time that everyone that owns more than one property will vote labor, because of these budgets that help the asset owners. asset owners with more than two properties or over a certain amount of asset value should not receive a pension, you can lie to me about the assets check all you want but I have relatives who are millionaires in assets who still get a pension while my grandmother is denied half of hers because her husband works as a taxi driver six days a week to ensure she can even afford meds let alone eat.

Firstly, Albo is not "throwing cash" He is reducing your power bill by $300. Power prices going up is a cause of inflation. Reducing EVERONES bill is an easy way to help reduce inflation. Reducing inflation is good. Hope I have kept it simple enough for the average SKY NEWS subscriber.
