We know that Trump or Vance and their state sycophants will pardon many of the criminals in their ranks. But there can be no pardon for war crimes and they can't exclude themselves from universal jurisdiction. May the International Criminal Court feature prominently in Hegseth's future.

Making First Nations prisoners visible in Labor politics
Despite Western Australian Labor’s rhetoric on equality and Closing the Gap, incarcerated First Nations people remain politically invisible. Without formal representation and lived-experience voices in party deliberations, meaningful reform is impossible. The 2027 State Labor Conference is the moment to change that.

Losing the democracy sausage vibe
The last federal election saw a sharp rise in harassment and aggression at polling places, according to submissions from around the country. From death threats to deception, the once-peaceful ritual of casting a vote is under threat – and Australia needs to act.
