They should all have loss of licence insurance. Go stack shelves or deliver pizza!

Thats a bit rich. These international pilots abandoned their fellow australian pilots during the pilots dispute in 1989 & grabbed all the flying they could. They can renew their medicals & fly the simulator until recency in the aircraft is available. Dont ask taxpayers for help

The BeeKeeper program may get confusing? 🤔

Thats one way to manage the flight risk

Where does SBS stand on the matter? Why no opinion on this issue, but happy to lecture us on everything else? The Australian Strategic Policy Institute is leading the China bash and represents the defence industry. Read their words, it is pure conjecture.

Fears government taxi support package too little, too late as industry faces 'mass exodus'With taxi drivers facing months of financial uncertainty, drivers like Rohan Singh have left the roads — raising fears a $22 million government funding boost may be too little, too late. This will always happen when you abuse a good thing, and shoot yourself in the foot as a result. I haven’t used Taxis in Perth since Uber surfaced. They’re cheats and liars, always have been. Taxis are obsolete, and a damn unpleasant passenger experience to boot. If I’m paying twice as much as I would for an Uber, I shouldn’t have to guide them turn by turn while they ignore the GPS on their dash. If they wanted to survive, maybe they should have tried not being shit. If taxis weren’t able to price gouge for decades, they might still have a place.

Industry, unions call on govt to shift JobKeeper eligibility date | Sky News AustraliaPrime Minister Scott Morrison is standing firm on maintaining the JobKeeper eligibility date at March 1 amid calls to shift the date ahead of the second round of the wage subsidy scheme. \n\nIndustry and unions have called for the eligibility date to be brought forward to July 22 due to fears employees hired after March 1 would no longer be able to receive JobKeeper payments. \n\nThe move was prompted by fears businesses could be forced to carry out large-scale job cuts, which would force many people onto the JobSeeker scheme, if they could not prove a 30 per cent drop in revenue at the end of September. \n\nImage: Getty
