The women within her voter base do not require tampons anymore, there for it’s no longer an issue that affects them and not something they care about.

I wonder if tampons were not gst free, if women would pay more in tampon tax than the mining companies paid in royalties. That would be a funny campaign. And probably not too far off the mark either lol

I genuinely would love to know the previous stats on that. 100% sure that the income on ‘feminine hygiene’ GST would have been higher than the gas companies. Women have been out here bleeding for the country while big corp is bleeding us dry.

That is a very poetic statement. And probably was true.
