Cartoonist scourge. My @smh @theage cartoon.

$ 230 to see a dermatologist, up to $1000 out of pocket for a psychiatrist… access to and affordability of medical specialists is an increasing issue for Australians - especially those in regional and rural areas. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

The Albanese govt refuses again & again to take responsibility for the harm caused by the predatory gambling industry to vulnerable individuals. It shifts blame & makes gambling harm out to be a matter of personal choice, rather than a social/health issue influenced by massive commercial interests.

The richest man owns X. The second and third richest men control Google. The fourth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The fifth richest man owns The Washington Post. And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros. See the problem here?

Put away the blu tack

This

"My NHS colleagues & I weren’t willing to let the bodies pile high in their thousands. Boris no longer mentions them at all." My piece on the responses to the UK Covid-UK Inquiry report that try to airbrush the dead away. Sincere thanks, @theobserveruk.bsky.social. observer.co.uk/news/nationa...

Protest the de-funding of research

That's more than 1,100 jobs lost at the CSIRO over the last two years. "Combined, the staff association estimates that equates to cutting the agency’s size by a third." This is more cuts to the CSIRO than was attempted by the Abbott government. www.smh.com.au/national/csi...

Our science budget. Fund CSIRO #auspol #TimAyresMP

Tim Ayres might need to be sent a few strongly worded letters- this is a disgrace

Fair call

Adopting a renewables future is not just a moral necessity but a strategic imperative for Australia

Sod ‘em indeed #auspol

Critical thinking and courage to challenge those wealthy ‘haves’ is seriously lacking in the Libs and the Nats

Iran is facing a crisis unlike any in its modern history. Water shortages, record heat, and failing infrastructure are forcing officials to plan something unthinkable - evacuating parts of the capital 1/5

Honestly, why go Oceans Eleven? When you can Blues Brothers.

@ABC730 why? Why give Barnaby Joyce the air time? It always ends up the same where he simpers and smirks and loves the spotlight but nothing he says makes sense. Surely you can find a quality interviewee from whom we can learn something?

Massive Attack = real deal on climate. Aurora = real deal on climate. This cover = great www.youtube.com/watch?v=GPTY...

So important to engage before doing

Robert Redford, star of Hollywood classics including Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, The Sting and All the President’s Men, has died aged 89. 🔗👉 www.theguardian.com/film/20...

"These marchers did not march for Australia. They marched against Australians. Against the refugee child in Bankstown. Against the nurse from Manila. Against the Yolŋu elder who speaks for 65,000 years of wisdom. These Australians do not need to prove their loyalty—" johnmenadue.com/post/2025/09...

Wins the internet today

Justifying the unjustifiable - the Israeli ambassador Amir Maimon. #abc730 #auspol

Graceless morons is such a perfect description

Seriously @ABC7:30 why are you giving Barnaby Joyce air time? Has he been planted by the government to keep the coalition out of office? #ABC #ABC730 #netzero

Is Barnaby okay?

If you are “afraid for your sons" based on 2% of reported rap3s being false, imagine how afraid we are for our daughters based on the other 98% .

You might’ve heard Joe has had 9 guitars stolen on Thursday night along with significant and sentimental items. If you hear anything about where they are please ring the police. And can you repost this please😎🙏Ian

Having recently spent a month in China I was amazed by the hundreds of KMs of Wind turbines across the mountains of the Gobi desert (seen when flying from Urumqi to Beijing). There was a lot of solar and significant tree planting also. Amazing country.

We have come to an agreement that if Cleo parks on our bed during the day, she uses the strategically placed towel #winterVictoria #spoiltcat #doglivesoutside

Amen to this. The vision has been set for Australia in the PM’s acceptance speech- kindness, fairness, respect and equality 🥰

Values based leadership- sets us up for success by setting the standards by which we live. Respect, fairness, kindness and equality. This is a highlight of Albo’s campaign and winning speech. Now for action. #auspol #australiavotes

Both Sky News and ABC commentators attributing LNP blow up to policy gap with younger voters. Sky even inferred Howard was a liability due yo being irrelevant to those under 40 #auspol #australiavotes

🇦🇺 🇨🇦

A mere flesh wound…

Checking out Sky which I never, ever watch and wow - bravest man on election night would have to go to Murray Watt. He has just been lambasted by Pauline Hansen and the panel at Sky just stuck the boots in too instead of asking her to wind up her retro irrelevant accusations. #auspol #ausvotes

One of my favourite days because we celebrate how lucky we are in Australia to have this electoral system. We the people…

The tension of playing safe and not scaring people off vs the electorate’s desperate need for a brave values-based vision that we can get on board with.

The LNP have spent 30 years being pampered by an unprepresentative national media, and have no culture of internal dissent except raw power. When you live in a bubble of people kissing your arse, any disagreement or questioning feels like persecution. It's why they are weak, paranoid and vacuous.

The markets know the difference.

It’s time..

This is why independents are getting votes. Not beholden to the gambling lobby like #ALP and #LNP

Bookmarked for the inevitable surrender.
