#closethegap

With 86 seats (at least) in the Lower House, there’s no excuse for Albanese not to #RaiseTheRate, fix the #HousingCrisis, #CloseTheGap, enact a #MurdochRC and do all the other progressive policy initiatives for which Aussies have given him the mandate. #auspol #ausvotes2025

In Australia, we've unfortunately copied much of the American blueprint when it comes to education. Our private schools are now better funded by the federal government by a factor of three to one compared to public schools. This has created a widening gap in access to quality education, where private schools thrive while public schools struggle with underfunding. If all students, regardless of their background, attended the same schools, we'd see a fairer distribution of resources and opportunities, preventing the deepening divide that exists today.

Today is #EqualPayDay, symbolizing how much longer women work to earn as much as men do in 2023.

On this day we must also celebrate the continuous efforts to #closethegap , such as beating Bill 124.

Equality for all genders. #noexeptions

April 16 is Equal Pay Day
Equal Pay Day symbolizes how far into 2024
the average woman must work
just to earn what the average man did in 2023.

Why would this gap still be a problem?

Closing the Gap will fail without ‘fundamental change’, the Productivity Commission finds theguardian.com/australia-news
In a scathing report, the Productivity Commission has called for urgent changes to rescue the landmark agreement, accusing the federal government of “weak” action on key areas, not fulfilling its promises and a “disregard” for the suggestions of Indigenous communities. It says efforts to eliminate institutional racism in areas such as justice and health have “received little effort”.

Technology has the power to transform lives and communities, but only if it's accessible to everyone.

The digital gender divide is still a major barrier for women worldwide.

Linda Burney, Minister for Indigenous Australians, at our local polling centre this morning for the #VoiceToParliament referendum. I had a few good conversations with people who hadn’t made up their mind. Whatever the result, Australia needs better ways forward to #CloseTheGap #AusPol

Things to fear:
1) slow action on
2) tax policy that aggravates & homelessness
Things NOT to fear:
1) enshrining in Constitution
2) better advice to Parliament on

We are at the edge of the [CAUTION GAP> defined by the gap between two cliffs. Our Aboriginal mate in his YES shirt is in the gap riding the cloud to get to the other side is being refused entry to the other side by a complete Dutt on the edge holding his NO placard on a stick! His face shows his realisation that he is about to fall into the gap and there's nothing he can do about it.
