        I'd like to know if the author has ever had to shop with vouchers from social security as I did as a DV survivor sole parent of 3, who received no Child support from the violent ex. I was questioned, in front of people, by a checkout girl over a packet of household candles.

        Some people like to humiliate others, the cashless welfare card enables the labelling & public humiliation of people, by others. The fact that Andrew Forest is behind the push should set off everyone's alarm bells. How dare this man decide who is allowed to handle money. #dignity

        he already decides where the money goes -rorts his tax obligations then makes grandiose gestures of philanthropy to his own pet projects while buying back his integrity at a price he chooses.

        From the same newspaper that said the RC into institutional child abuse was populist rubbish. Take a good, hard look at yourselves.

        Who are 'The left'? What lazy 'journalism'!! How about you write about Twiggy and his LNP mates who make $ from the Indue card! The whole thing is a scam, and reviews showed it makes life harder for ordinary (innocent) ppl on welfare payments! $10k cost per card from taxpayers!

        Hey, let's generalise! Because it's well known that 'The Left' don't care about victims of domestic violence. Not like the current government, which defunds every social service it can think of because victims only have themselves to blame.

        I'm supposedly left leaning, I am a DV survivor and I can assure the author that my primary concerns are always with the victims. Misguided or misleading generalisations don't help not those in crisis. The cashless welfare removes dignity and self determination.

        They think that DV victims are right wing, what? It doesn't matter what politics you hold dear, anyone can be a victim in DV. I wonder if this is incel bait who think that females are the perpetrator or do Murdoch think MGTOW are left wing?

        The Right close womens refuges. The Right in auspol care more about their expense claims, like Julie Bishop who rorts taxpayers every year for her birthday celebrations, while DV victims have no safe place to go. The Right objected to the Royal Commission into child sexual abuse.

        This is what one would state is called the"twilight zone" scenario Where a person is conditioned to believe that the left are supporting Men's rights groups over DV women Groups... Politics aside, never let the truth get in the way of a tabloid headline.
