The Aussie Gaza flotilla captives (including Sam Woripa) have now been released from Israeli detention. Humanitarian civilians should not have to risk abduction, detention + military violence simply to deliver aid whilst Australia continues business as usual - no sanctions, continued weapons trade.

I was asked during a radio interview this morning what my reaction was to the treatment of Australian citizens by Israel following the capture and detention of 11 of our own who had joined the global sumud flotilla.

Great to see Australia signing overnight to a landmark UN ruling establishing our government's legal duty to protect Australians from the escalating global climate crisis.

If we're getting serious about climate change, we should stop sacking the CSIRO scientists who measure it, stop subsidising big mining companies' use of fossil fuels through the diesel fuel rebate, and stop approving the new oil and gas projects which are now clearly against international law.

Here's @boganintel.bsky.social. "As Aussie activists are brutalised, 'No one left behind' is a just a slogan for Albanese"

I desperately need to know how and exactly when @albomp.bsky.social crossed over from supporting Palestine in parliament in his younger years, to an openly zio-lackey in old age. How?! Why?! How did this happen??!

Impressive display of cognitive dissonance! Selling as much coal and gas as Australia can but at the same time, Aus's UN representative, James Larsen "...our support reflects our recognition of the seriousness of the climate crisis, the need for concrete action..." www.abc.net.au/news/2026-05...

Have you seen our ad in your newspaper this morning? 👀 Australian nurses pay more tax than the gas industry. A flat 25% tax on gas exports would raise more than $17 billion a year – helping repair a budget forecast to remain in deficit through to 2029-30. Read more ➡️ https://theaus.in/3RDMUvP

👏 tt 🇦🇺's joined 140 states in endorsing the Intl Court of Justice Advisory Opinion, which states countries are legally obligated to take action to stop climate harm in order to protect human rights, incl thru an equitable phase out of fossil fuels BUT @albomp.bsky.social has approved 33 ff projs &👇

Christian Jakob, @andyhogg.bsky.social & @sarahinscience.bsky.social explain the massive self-inflicted disadvantages we incur if Australia’s home-grown climate model, ACCESS (Australian Community Climate and Earth System Simulator) is compromised by CSIRO job cuts

The three greatest medium term threats to social cohesion and quality of life in Australia are, in no particular order: • The Media • International influence • Weak or compromised Governments It’s not migrants or trans people, or Muslims or Jews or eating avocados or empathy.

Oh look, yet *more* evidence that markets are highly unlikely to be the great saviours for nature conservation that the corporate cheerleaders suggest they are! I'm shocked, shocked I tell ya! biodiversitycouncil.org.au/news/could-e...

www.abc.net.au/news/2026-05... Let’s see if, as a result of this ruling, what Australia says, and what it does, now have greater cohesion than their ‘if we promote renewables AND subsidise the ff industry all will be well’ approach.

3/ How'd we get here when the majority of 🇦🇺s rated the govt as terrible, poor or average on protecting the environment❓ & voters of all stripes supported 💪strengthening nat environmental laws 💪establishing nat standards Why's @albomp.bsky.social so comfortable ignoring the majority of voters?

1/ "Australians really care about the landscapes they live in, & abt the precious places they will never visit, but want protected anyway. They just need a govt that cares as much as they do.[..] I will be guided by 3 essential goals. To protect, to restore, & to manage Australia’s environment."

Yep the gas reservation policy is so horrible for Santos that since it's announcement it's share price has gone up while the overall share market has fallen.

There is going to be a LOT of bullshit about trusts. So let's keep our eye on the ball. Bugger all people use them. But millionaires do and they get a LOT of income through them And they do that because they can avoid paying tax.
