The NACC has let Robodebt's architects off the hook, while Labor's dubiously legal welfare compliance regime continues to demean, punish and harm thousands. Robodebt is not an artifact of history. It's a living warning to a Labor government that refuses to listen.

The Albanese Labor Government has allowed a few women from Iran to seek safety here, then slammed the door on thousands.

This must have been such a frightening experience for all those gathered at a community Iftar. My heart goes out to all those impacted. Once again there has been an attack on people simply practicing their faith. We cannot allow this sort of racism and hate to go unchecked or become normalised.

My heart is with everyone facing floods up north. In Bundaberg it's the worst in 10 years, in Katherine the worst in decades. And more rain is possible. Rolling disasters will keep devastating Northern Australian communities as governments make the climate crisis worse.

The architects of Robodebt are still sitting pretty. The NACC has made two findings of corruption, but those who should shoulder the blame for one of the biggest scandals in Australian history remain unscathed. Cold comfort to the thousands of people whose lives were destroyed.

Robodebt was the worst failure of public administration in Australian history. It raised est. $1.73 bn of illegitimate debts from over 430,000 vulnerable Australians and plunged thousands of families into distress and grief. And still no real consequences. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Tens of thousands of Australians are in Lebanon right now, sheltering from Israeli attacks, and the Albanese Government has not said a peep. As the Albanese Government commits us to an illegal US forever war, they are ignoring the victims of the horror they support.

The Albanese Labor Government is supporting bombing a country, then preventing people fleeing that violence from seeking safety here. It is wicked.

The Albanese Labor Government's new law is designed to stop people seeking asylum who come from places like Iran. In fact, this new power seeks to prevent people like the Iranian women's football players from seeking asylum in the future.

Labor has just further committed Australia to an illegal US-led war, based on a lie. Labor is being cheered on by the Coalition and One Nation, the other war parties, as it follows the United States into yet another disastrous conflict with no exit strategy.

How does Victoria’s underfunding of public schools impact children, families, teachers, and the broader community? That’s the question we’re hoping to answer on Thursday at the first hearing of the parliamentary inquiry into Vic Labor’s $2.4 billion public school cuts. (1/4)

I am in a rushed hearing into the Albanese Labor Government's travel freeze, clearly aimed at preventing people from Iran from seeking safety in Australia. More below👇

The announcement today from the Albanese Labor Government to send an E-7A Wedgetail aircraft to the Gulf and provide medium-range air-to-air missiles to the UAE shows Australia has been fully dragged into another US forever war.

The Greens will back Labor’s super tax changes. But let’s be honest about it. It barely scratches the surface of the wealth inequality crisis. You should not be paying a higher tax rate on your wages than the richest super accounts. Yet that’s exactly what our system allows.

Labor has dragged Australia into another US forever war. There's nothing "defensive" about this. The US-Israel bombardment of Iran is an illegal war of aggression that is fast spiralling out of control. Committing Australian resources to this is a costly and deadly mistake.
