Cashless debit card is all about Twiggy Forrest and the corrupt government. @SenatorSiewert highlighted this by pointing out that Generation One (Minderoo Foundation) was quoted 16 times, more than any NT group!!!
Again, @SenatorSiewert calling it how it is. Pointing out that if MPs had lived experience in the social security system, they’d know how awful CDC is.
@Malarndirri19 starts by highlighting the absolute failure of the government to be transparent.
The process of this bill and program is a farce. They’re treating checks and balances with contempt.

@Malarndirri19 points out that the last evaluation of the Basics Card was in 2014, and it said that it didn’t work!
@lidia__thorpe absolutely tearing this shit show of a bill (and parliament!) up. Going over the ongoing colonial history of Australia and highlighting how the CDC is just another rations and protections act imposed on First Nations' peoples.
@Louise_Pratt bringing up how income management creates new financial stress and makes life harder for those on it.
@lidia__thorpe mentioned in her speech that it took TWO MONTHS for a card to be sent out. Making the person homeless and forcing them to court over unpaid rent.

@PaulineHansonOz just reading a run sheet of government lines on the cashless debit card. Of course there is nothing of substance here, but again. It is worth highlighting that Hanson was against a cashless economy and banks... Yet, this bill supports both of those.
Considering One Nations performance during the QLD state election and its dwindling support. I have no doubt that @PaulineHansonOz is in continuous negotiations to be propped up by the LNP + feds to save Malcom Roberts (of which I can't tag as I'm blocked) senate spot. COWARDS.
@PaulineHansonOz choking on her own vile words.
Well done @Anne_Ruston you and your cronies picked a vile, racist to use your talking points. Happy?
This isn't about race is it @PaulineHansonOz? So why the FUCK would you draw in @lidia__thorpe's heritage.
Truly a disgusting and vile person that the Liberal Party, @ScottMorrisonMP and @Anne_Ruston are using to push their point. This is a disgusting state of affairs.

@PaulineHansonOz the last fucking job you had was in a fish and chip shop.
