The rise of the teal female independents in #AusVotes2022 provides a striking case study into the power of "disruptive innovation"

Disruptive innovation is sparked when a small but growing segment of the market is ignored and neglected by existing businesses, deemed โnot important" or "not lucrative" enough to bother catering to or investing in.

In response to this void in the market, a new business can enter the market focused on addressing the needs, values and concerns of this "overlooked" segment.
They bring new ways of doing things and fresh approaches that resonate with those who feel unheard.

After watching roundups by political journos saying things like "polls have consistently shown a comfortable Labor lead but this could go with way and no one can predict" I am like do you listen to yourselves ๐คฏ #AusVotes2022
It's like in 2019 if the BBC said "polls overwhelmingly point strongly to a Tory majority but sources close to Mr Corbyn indicate private polling shows Transition to Socialism begins on Monday".

Mr Morrison is lying.
His Ministers can grant permanent visas for any reason they want.
But they won't even give QLD-born 4 year old Tharni the same temporary visa they gave her mum, dad & sister.
That's how they're stopping her family coming safely #HometoBilo

Yet another example of @NSWHealth's psychological siege warfare of the past 10+ months, aka nudging. There was no reason for this contact after a month of radio silence, managers have zero agency in this topic, it is all HR.
Despite John Larter (NSW Senate candidate with @JohnRuddick2) still having outstanding @NSWSupCt and @NCATNSW cases in progress
Meaning that directions by former NSW Health Secretary @ElizabethKoff are currently being challenged in court.
Leaders debate now turning to questions of character, Morrison again calls Albanese "a loose unit when it comes to the economy" while Albanese says Morrison does not turn up or take responsibility, citing the bushfires, floods and vaccines. @SBSNews #AusVotes2022

Why would Australia's prime minister express concern about youth gender medicine? #AusPol #AusVotes2022 #Health #GenderClinics
Schools, social media & the wider culture increasingly send impressionable kids the message they can "choose" to be a boy or a girl, or something in between. This adult theory -- with its post-modern denial of biological reality -- used to be confined to the fringes of higher ed.
Gender non-conforming kids, who might otherwise grow up to be gay/bisexual, are now exposed to the idea that unease in their bodies, not fitting in with peers, may mean they are the opposite sex. Autistic kids may be especially vulnerable to this "black & white" thinking.

Why is a Norwegian-owned company the ONLY supplier of newsprint-grade paper in Australia?

Btwn May 2018 - Nov 2020 the federal govt gave Norske Skog $1.5 million - basically for commercial Cyrene Production for the EXPORT market

Instead he's aiming for disengaged voters in marginal outer suburban seats who will pick up on the key words he's spruiking regarding trans athletes ("sport" "fairness", "common sense") and not delve into the motivation and culture wars underpinning them. 2/8
While this might look like mere tactics, it's something far deeper and more sinister. As with Morrison & Hawke's preselection manipulations in the NSW division, this is a fight for the heart of the Liberal Party. 3/8
