Govt secrecy - whole pages redacted
Yesterday at 9:50am

Whole pages redacted - all black.

It's called democracy.

Dec 3, 2025

The Labor government has conducted a $21,000 report into governance issues inside Housing Australia.

Today I asked if the Australian public could see this report.
After all, it was funded through their taxpayer dollars.
Yet the Housing Minister claims it would not be in the interest of the public to receive these answers.

Put simply, Australians are being denied of any explanation as to why Labor’s housing scheme is failing miserably.

Australians are stranded in a housing nightmare and all Labor cares about is
bailing out their bureaucracy and burying the truth with black ink.

What democracy?
There is no accountability, no transparency, no integrity.
Everything is a cover up.
Rotten to the core. Unbelievable arrogance.

That was Labor’s big promise on their campaign platform - transparency and accountability. Both absent since elected and getting more secretive by the day. You get who you vote for so I am concerned about the attitude of Australia these days as you need strength and principles to be your cornerstone - not your emotional state.

@bradnelson4778 that is what I thought! But hey they can promise anything and delivery either nothing or the complete opposite!
I think I will start a game “how many times can gallagher say ‘ya know’ in a question time 😂😂😂(just being cheeky here)

@rachelle4753 In Australia we vote on paper and we tally votes by hand, under the scrutiny of people from the major parties. You are spreading low IQ misinformation to sow distrust in our election among stupid people.

Labors openness, transparency & integrity policy in full view...... after it was blacked out. Grin
