“It seems to be entirely lost on the government . . . that Australia’s natural gas does NOT belong to them. "Australia's natural gas resource belongs to ALL Australians." – Andrew Wilkie MP ✍️ Sign to support a 25% gas export tax ➡️ https://theaus.in/4eNfW5P

The Australian government should compel oil companies to build storage facilities and maintain a minimum stock, in return for access to our lucrative market. Oil companies need to be forced to be decent corporate citizens. Instead, we’ll pay to store oil company product. #AusPol

Last week some of the wealthiest people in the country had tantrums because there’s small changes being made to the tax system. (Not enough in my opinion) while we have disabled people being thrown off the only support they have. While charities are running out of food for people.

“Analysis from The Australia Institute shows that LNG exporters ship far more gas overseas than Australians uses domestically,” writes Louise Morris. “Yet Australians are repeatedly told there is a looming gas shortage.” Read the full piece on The Point ➡️ https://theaus.in/4dgbFXt

Getting mogged by your judge is crazy

New respect for John “true blue”Williamson after he’s posted this to Facebook on Pauline Hanson.

Kars4Kids ads make it sound like your car donations helped children in need. A California judge just BANNED the ads across the state because that’s a lie. Donations actually fund Orthodox Jewish indoctrination programs and matchmaking services. open.substack.com/pub/friendly...

The loose cannon* and the control freak. If this Hollie Hughes/Pauline Hanson 'marriage' lasts a year I'll be amazed ... #auspol

Hughes and McQueen? In a packed field of deadheads and underachievers, One Nation manages to snare the deadest of heads and the underest of underachievers from the Liberals. Anyway, doesn't matter. All working for the same boss. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Instant supply increase. No building required. #Simples. #Auspol. #HousingCrisis.

I love and respect this scientist. Carl Sagan answers a question about creation vs evolution.

Essex county council is now controlled by Reform. Their first action has been to remove the Ukraine flag from the Council building. I had a very naughty idea. Could @ledbydonkeys.org project this symbol on the building, for a few days? I would love to see that and the faces of the councillors.

Liberal Party like a dog going back to its own vomit #auspol

Man who lost one of the safest seats in parliament wants to see if he can lose two of them

Pocock nails it yet again come on @albomp.bsky.social - teeth! www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

An idea to fix Congress and America. We make Congress work 2000 hours a year, but the extra 100 or so days they're not legislating., they're assigned a community job. Emergency Room attendant, grocery bagger, school lunch server, WIC processor, etc.

I fail to recognise @uklabour.bsky.social these days; Because any governance model that relies upon : • Party funding • Party donations • Lobbying • Manifesto • Campaigning • Elections • Voting - will be unsustainably corrupted. As the past 200yrs of UK political history shows.

Some very good news out of a Texas federal court: Alex Jones doesn't have standing to appeal a Bankruptcy court order that placed InfoWars' assets in state receivership, meaning they can be licensed or sold to us. More to come, obviously, but we're almost there.

On the anniversary of the Nakba, this is why the Zi0 lobby got Jezza out as Leader of the Labour Party on fake accusations of antisem1tism...... With views like this on Palestine.....& the zi0 terr0r1st regime & Britain's complicity....he was a marked man. #JizzraelIsATerr0r1stSt4te #LikudLabourUK

In 55 countries, wind and solar generated more electricity than coal in 2025. 34 of them have near-zero coal left. Spain crossed over in 2009. The UK in 2016. The USA last year. Different grids, different politics, same pattern. Want more of this? Sign up here janrosenow.substack.com

Without makeup and proper lighting, Sean Hannity looks like the Margaret Rutherford version of Miss Marple. (No offense to Ms. Rutherford.) Jus' sayin'!

Okay, everybody, here's a lesson in economics. Pepsi was charging $7 a bag for Doritos, and people decided they were not paying it. That cost PepsiCo billions. .They will continue to Jack up prices based on what you are willing to pay. Stop paying it, stop buying it. It doesn't matter what it is.

Left- Ben Gvir says "We want to establish settlements in Lebanon, and we should not be afraid of pressure. This is the Zionist GREATER ISRAEL goal.

I guess it's lucky we're not in an environmental and climate crisis, that risks destroying society and the economy...oh, wait theconversation.com/existential-... Great job, @albomp.bsky.social!

3-year-old Teslas fail inspections more than any other 3-year-old car in the Finnish market by multiples. Top 3 worst: 1. ⁠Tesla Model Ys saw 62.7 % failures. 2. ⁠Tesla Model 3s saw 58.7 % failures. 3. ⁠Dacia Dusters saw 23 % failures. Nearly all other car models had under 10% failure rates.

Stephen Colbert and David Letterman throwing things off the Ed Sullivan Theater. Colbert: “Anything you’d like to say, Dave?” Letterman: “In the words of the great Edward R. Murrow to CBS: ‘Good night and good luck, motherfuckers.’”

Being attacked by the Prime Minster should not be this fun. Cripes Albanese, at least get some facts. (Or at least read your own Budget Papers!)

Make no mistake the LP is dead. It will never come back.

Since the ceasefire began, more than 400 Lebanese people have been killed. Israel now occupies 6% of Lebanon and has destroyed more than 10,000 homes. ➡️⚠️ Let’s remind our leaders and the media that under international law, collective punishment is a war crime.

Perfect headline. No notes

BHP tried to get us into court today. They Failed

This is not my husband. Sounds like him but isn’t him.

Worth remembering Australians pay a low rate of income tax compared to other advance economies. You would have to earn more than $200,000 before you start paying more tax in Australia than in the USA We are a low taxing nation. Automatic tax cuts each year will only reduce govt services.

“Gas that is exported from this country should be paid for by the gas companies that export it. "And a 25% gas export tax is the way to go. "Australians deserve a fair return." – Senator David Pocock ✍️ Sign to support a 25% gas export tax ➡️ https://theaus.in/4dkPcsp

“Outrageous”🔥 Jordon Steele-John has ripped into legislation for massive cuts to the NDIS & called on Senators to vote for his amendment to give the Disability community time to simply review changes impacting their lives. Penny Allman-Payne also not holding back.💥 #auspol

apparently knowledge institutions that employ thousands of experts on racism, colonialism, and geopolitics did not conform to a specific form of words acceptable to this one tiny powerful lobby group who provide cover for a livestreamed genocide. www.abc.net.au/news/2026-05...

On another matter entirely, I wonder if the red Drizabone Pauline is wearing is a Gina Rinehart special. She owns the company and had this special edition coat made featuring images of her at an employee's Kimberly wedding (pic courtesy of Crikey from 2024)

Who among us did not have a $50,000 share portfolio when we were 20yo? The Oz finds a typical young person.

Subvert launches on Tuesday 12 May. We are now just days away. If you are a Member of Subvert, check your email for more details on how we will launch together next week. Not a member yet? These are the final days to join as a Founding Member of Subvert. Join the co-op at subvert.fm

Here’s a direct link to some of my tracks from “The Edge of All We Know”, up on Subvert

Subvert is a new platform and I’m sure they are working hard to iron out any bumps. One of these bumps seems to be that old nemesis that has been rejecting my special character and throwing errors since the 90s…. ie if you search on Subvert for “Zoe Keating” it will not find “Zoë Keating”.
