If only this applied to the parents as well... No more using your children online to make a buck as an influencer.

Absolute stupidity and a waste of taxpayers' money spending so much time on this nonsense.

These incompetent morons are pretty much guaranteeing that they will lose the next election. In the middle of a housing and inflation crisis this is what these fuckheads decided was important.

I loathe the opposition, but it's hard to defend the sheer incompetence the Labor Party has displayed their entire term.
