If those are the biggest behavioural issues the author is worried about then I would question if she has ever even caught public transport.
I've been 7 times in the last 25 years.
Mass consumption of "low fat" (high sugar) processed food like products?
For me it was Howard. He was really effective at furthering many neo liberal economic policies to fuck over anyone not born in to wealth. Sure some of the more recent PMS have been more embarrassing and stupid (scummo, abbot) but Howard was an absolute arsehole.
He brought in the capital gains tax discount for real estate which when combined with the existing negative gearing policy was/is a major contributor driving investors to real estate thus making property become unaffordable. Not to mention it's just so unfair inequitable. Why the fuck should a person who buys existing houses pay less tax on money gained from that than someone who actually produces something of value does on their income?
He was the political equivalent of the FIFO miner spending all his cash on a Malloo, jet ski and glass BBQ party. Howard pissed the early - mid 2000s mining boom proceeds up the wall on middle class welfare. Instead we could have had a future fund like Norway. To be fair every politician we have had since has either been too corrupt or scared to attempt anything like that.
Howard also realised he could fuck over unions by bringing in masses of extra workers via record immigration in order to lower wages. (Added Bonus this increased demand on real estate too) He won't be remembered for that on immigration, instead he will be remembered for his "boat people" rhetoric. It was like a magicians distraction, look at these bad immigrants, meanwhile opening the floodgate for "good" immigrants.
He sold telecom setting our internet tech back at least a decade.
He dragged us in to the middle east wars like a good little lapdog for George dubbya.
He started the erosion of Medicare to please his private health fund donors.
As a millennial, not born in to 1% wealth, Howard and the liberal parties message to me has always been "go fuck yourself". I will never put liberal anywhere but the bottom of the ballot. Potato head might be fantasising about winning the votes of the working class by paying lip service to some issues we face and then campaigning against social issues we don't care about. I don't think that many of us are so foolish to think that the liberals will ever be anything but the party for the elite. Even then they are only the party for the honest elite, that wear their arseholery as a badge of honour. The other elites have the teals.
Anyone know why this bullshit is being allowed by govt?
How did voice over LTE end up needing carrier software approval on top of having the right hardware?
Is this telcos writing legislation for yet another ignorant communications minister?
All I see is limited consumer choice, generation of completely unnecessary e-waste and a giant "fuck off" sign to international tourists.
Australians expect to be able to punish their vehicles over harsh terrain and have it come back in one piece.
Oh please. The most off road the majority of dual cabs get is mounting kerbs in a drive through.
my guess would be old.reddit disappearing.
The recruiters also like to remove your name and contact details so that the companies they are selling you to can't bypass the recruiter.
Not having all the silly teenager / young adult bits of their lives documented in videos for all to see.
Typical of this Labor govt, this policy is about appearing to do something, than actually doing it effectively.
Why not have levies for all houses sitting vacant, not just foreign owned? Why not make annual fees higher and higher if you own more than say 3 properties? How about fees for land banking in cities ?
Also better make sure that a house used for air BNB 2 weeks a year doesn't count as being used.
That's why we call those type of "bike lanes" a murder strip.
Have them where I live too.

Scooters are already quite regulated. Max speed 25kph (not allowed to be capable of more than that on level ground) Max weight 25kg Max size 125 by 70 by135 cm
https://www.wa.gov.au/organisation/road-safety-commission/erideables The hire ones are all compliant with the regulations.
The hire ones also have GPS in them that is used to determine when they are in pedestrian areas where the speed gets limited to 10kph automatically. Probably not the greatest on narrow streets.
