Pope Leo: "The world is being ravaged by a handful of tyrants, yet it is held together by a multitude of supportive brothers and sisters.”

No one ever lost money telling billionaires what they want to hear. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Sorry for the plug but I feel obliged to reshare this. Farage told a podcast before running for election: “There’s no money in politics, there’s no money if you’re straight [i.e. not corrupt]." Around the time he got £5 million from a crypto billionaire before going on to back crypto deregulation.

Listening to another fantastic edition of Sunday Shot #Binsiders & thinking again about this 🧵on the need to end extreme wealth & extreme inequality

a timely look at the wildly inadequate, and abusive, old disability system, which was the very reason the NDIS happened in the first place www.abc.net.au/news/2026-05...

Tomorrow on The Sunday Shot, @instanterudite.bsky.social and @davemilbo.bsky.social are joined by @grogsgamut.bsky.social, Kalila Welch and @bluntshovels.bsky.social discussing the budget and the cuts to the NDIS. Check it out on Youtube or your podcast app of choice.

Political media in Australia think the risk for the govt is that the budget goes too far in taxing the rich. In reality the risk to the govt is that for millions of people the budget didn’t go far enough. #auspol

Disastrous line in #Budget reply speech of #Angus Taylor was his scrapping of ##NetZero. With those few words he lost votes of millions of young Australians.

If AI succeeds, we need universal basic income, and if AI fails, we need universal basic income. Also, we should have implemented UBI decades ago when working class incomes first decoupled from productivity growth.

Truer words. #TaxTheUltraWealthy #UBI

It's not that complicated @albomp.bsky.social

As we witness the last desperate, savage gasps of the old paradigm play out in the Middle East, the late Tony Benn’s speech remains as relevant today as it was on the day it was delivered. #WarWithIran youtu.be/A7ciGW7h7PI

Very sad to learn that Nyadol Nyuon is in the process of returning her OAM and renouncing her Australian citizenship due to the way she has been treated by Victoria University and Worksafe Victoria. She is a wonderful human being and this country needs to get its act together.

"The study also found that the age and gender distribution of violent deaths in #Gaza... closely resembled the demographic patterns observed in several genocides documented by the United Nations Inter-Agency Group for Child Mortality Estimation (UN IGME)." www.mpg.de/25778228/112... #Israel

Violated a ceasefire then lied about what just transpired. The US can't be trusted for any accurate data while 47 is behind a mic... or any time else.

Especially for @albomp.bsky.social and @senatorwong.bsky.social How can Australia not condemn this government which everyday breaks international law? We are a nation that lead the establishment of these very laws with #alp hero at the forefront.

“The presence of Australians on board makes this an Australian issue. At home, Australia presents itself as a country that supports free expression and civic action. But when Australians act on those values abroad, the response can be very different.” johnmenadue.com/post/2026/05...

This is the rubbish who is running the most powerful military force on the planet right now, what a shame

“Would you support an organized plan to send all the Gazans to the another country where they will never return to?” 🇮🇱:“If it was upto me i wouldn't just send them, On the way make sure there will be concentration camps which will burn them” Sad brainwashed people 😢
