I don’t know what is going on with SBS viceland but they’ve just finished showing The Fifth Element & it’s started again & looking at the guide it’s going to be shown another 4 times, one after the other 😂. #SBS #Freeview.

Ah.. a rare piece of ‘informative’ and ‘facts-based reporting from the #ABC. This article sheds quite a few flood-lights on the #migration political debate and calls out recent #LNP talking points for what they are… so much #racist BS. It is a well written piece by Gareth Hutchens based on historical facts and a recent #research paper from ANU (with a link to it).

Well worth the read, especially if you need facts to inform family members caught in the #propaganda fed to us by #msm and #freeview TV channels (also no small a number of social media ‘trolls’).

“The paper says Coalition governments have contributed "significantly more than Labor governments" to increasing temporary immigration levels in Australia over the past quarter of a century.” Though, it must be said, largely with bi-partisan support.

Who's really behind 'Big Australia'? Taylor's high immigration stance raises eyebrows

Angus Taylor's criticism of high immigration puts a strange spotlight on his own party's policy legacy. 

I only wanted to find out what changes were coming to #freesat with channel changes next week

I've come away knowing that #Astra will be defunct by 2030.
#freeview probably won't make it past 2035.
#TV will only come houses through the internet into a dedicated box without an aerial socket.
There'll be no such thing as scheduling. recording to watch later will be history. Adverts will be pay to avoid ONLY.
& If you're a #rural user with crap internet, it's pretty much tough shit.

#Petition #UK #FreeView

Terrestrial television, received through an aerial, known as Freeview, is under serious threat of being scrapped

Within months the Government will decide whether to turn off terrestrial signals & rely solely on internet based TV (IPTV)

This means every household would be forced to take out a fixed broadband contract to continue watching their favourite TV programmes

Radio reception & signals for emergency services could also be put at risk
