Australia Institute research shows a 25% gas export tax could raise $17 billion a year, cutting energy bills and funding healthcare and education. Meanwhile, Aussies pay more tax on beer than the gas industry pays on exports. Sign our petition to end the gas export scam: https://theaus.in/3P0dk9D

“We will continue to kill the idea of a Palestinian state,” Katz said in a joint statement with the finance minister, Bezalel Smotrich. They will also continue to kill! www.theguardian.com/world/2026/f...

We knew from the moment we heard it that “social cohesion” would be one of those Orwellian terms which would be used to cover all manner of state sanctioned abuse and deprivation of civic freedoms. It fuels the very unrest it pretends to seek to quell.

Here's me. "Why the fuck would we 'socially cohere' for monsters?"

What does justify a royal commission is the actions of the NSW government and NSW Police in the lead-up to and events of last night in the Sydney CBD. Any internal investigation will have no credibility.

Combatting Antisemitism Czar™️, Jillian Segal's, hand-picked University Report card independent assessor - Greg Craven - brings novel views and thoughts to the position.

Predictable response to Pep’s plea for a modicum of humanity. Maybe these Jewish groups can focus on asking why the Israeli government is still murdering children despite the “ceasefire”.

Pep Guardiola's pre-Newcastle press conference, part two. 🎥 @hayterstv.bsky.social youtu.be/B1H5rvre1eI?...

"When thousands of innocent people are completely killed it hurts me!" "Humanity is better than ever in terms of possibilities. We can do everything. But still, right now, we kill each other. For what?!" Pep Guardiola delivers hugely passionate speech on the power of images and humanity. 🧠

If possible, track down the full impassioned response from Guardiola to the killing and oppression in the world. Superb and from the heart.

Get this: the Israeli president’s visit will be so divisive, according to NSW Police, that the appropriate response is to ban all public assemblies while he’s here, rather than, say, him not coming.

🇸🇩 SUDAN | UN: displacement accelerating on multiple fronts ➤ In South Kordofan, more than 10,000 displaced people are living in camps with critical shortages of food, healthcare, water, shelter, and education after fleeing Kadugli & Dilling. ➤ In North Darfur, over 1,000 people have arrived in...

Even Neville Chamberlain wouldn’t have been as stupid as extending such an invitation. Hertzog’s visit will be a massive PR coup for genocidal Netanyahu regime, and its Zionist supporters. It’s a degrading humiliation to reasoned Australians appalled at morally repugnant actions of IDF in Gaza

A heavily redacted cartoon. My @smh cartoon.

Labor’s refusal to join even Canada, the UK and France to condemn Israel for demolishing UNRWA headquarters in East Jerusalem shows Minister Wong has completely given up the pretense of caring about aid to Palestinians.

California’s EV boom led to cleaner air in its neighborhoods, with satellite data linking this growth to lower NO₂ pollution. insideevs.com/news/785951/...

In what world would this be considered a “ceasefire” except the one where our prime minister calls for “social cohesion” then invites the leader of a state committing genocide to pop over for a visit whilst simultaneously arming them with weapons for that same genocide.

Howard Lutnick is the guy who said he and his wife, neighbors of Epstein, visited his home. He said they both got such a negative feeling that they left and agreed to never see him again. It seems none of that was true. Every person in this regime is a liar. All them

Labor has invited the head of the country that is still doing this to millions of occupied people for a state visit - it’s hard to believe really.

As a citizen of Australia, I expect and demand that our government speak out against war crimes and blatant fascism no matter which country is involved. Labor has failed as a government

Say 𝑵𝑶 to Isaac Herzog's "visit." #auspol

Not just any journalist, she won the goddamn Triple Crown of broadcast journalism (an Emmy, a Peabody, and a Murrow) in 2024 for her reporting on Gaza. This is textbook censorship of the highest degree

friend of mine is an undocumented immigrant and has been hiding in Melania theaters bc he knows people assume no one is in there

Human rights advocates are calling for the Australia Government to stop violating children’s rights and locking them up in “cages” as the country faces renewed calls to increase the minimum age of criminal responsibility. Read the full piece on The Point: https://theaus.in/4a07kEL

The Government’s invitation for President Herzog to visit must be rescinded - it will cause immense distress to many who have lost relatives in Gaza. This is a time to build social cohesion not blow it out of the water ! 💦

Re Herzog visit Cabinet to meet next week to consider backbenchers request to cancel Herzog's visa in the interests of social cohesion Ring your local ALP member Please email or ring as soon as you can

Brilliant and alarming. They need to teach this stuff in schools and give the future a chance to peer outside it’s box.

Great to see Pep speaking out. The more high profile people that stand up the better. ❤️ ☮️ 🇵🇸

The folly of inviting Israel’s President, Isaac Herzog, to Australia. My column for the ABC.

News rooms urge caution around using the word 'terrorism' when talking about throwing a bomb at an Invasion Day protest, "it's not like something extreme happened like a uni student eating a slice of watermelon."

Calls have grown for an alleged homemade bomb – which was was thrown into the crowd at Perth’s Invasion Day rally – to be investigated as an act of terrorism Greens MP Sophie McNeill says authorities must “prioritise the very real and violent threat posed by the far-right” in WA

This video filmed by Ben Luhmann shows the moment a federal agent sprayed chemical irritants directly into a man's face in south Minneapolis. Three agents already had the man pinned to the ground when a fourth agent walked up and sprayed the irritants.

I think that in Blood Soaked Benjamin’s (BSB™️) case it should read “bored of peace” www.theguardian.com/world/2026/j...

More journalists murdered by Israel and a 13 year old shot and killed by Israeli troops whilst collecting firewood. Meanwhile, Netanyahu accepts invitation to join the “Board of Peace.” #warcriminals 🩸 🩸 🩸 www.theguardian.com/world/2026/j...

If true, this would be worth a fortune.

Federal agents are pulling over off duty cops based on the color of their skin. This is not a serious operation to enforce immigration law. It’s a performative show of force and it’s gotten way out of hand.
