There’s been little protest about lifting Australians’ retirement age. But it hits some harder more others: Indigenous men and women, and the growing number of older people pushed onto JobSeeker.

    Aussies aren’t big on protesting against anything. They just grumble and get on with it. Wouldn’t want to be called a whinger.

      But yet they’ll throw stuff at the clerk if they take too long to ring them up or sneak in a tax at the register.

      Or tossing out their PM at the drop of a hat.

      Or someone trying to hijack a plane

      Or drunks on the bus.

      I think they are big on protesting. They don’t see it as whinging either. They see it as not putting up with shit.
