Remember: The richest 1% evade over $160 billion in taxes every year. That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare. Ask yourself who the real freeloaders are.

Larissa Waters has slammed Labor’s new environmental laws saying they’re great for big business, but “bad news for nature” “When you’re the environment minister…not a crazy idea to actually want to protect the environment”💥 #Abc

Okay, but let's not forget how Toyota killed its DEI programs and stopped sponsoring Pride events. Been buying Toyotas since 1978. No more.

Because Australia gives so much of our gas away for free, Japan gets it so cheap it makes a profit selling it to other countries! "We are disincentivising Japan to do anything about their emissions." - Chief Economist Greg Jericho at our #RevenueSummit25 @grogsgamut.bsky.social #auspol

"One wonders if this government will ever apply its super-majority to any purpose at all, beyond the politics of its own survival." #environment #auspol

In case anyone is in doubt, Labor are trying to WEAKEN Environmental Protection laws. They want to fast track approvals & climate impact will NOT be part of assessment. If you hear the Greens are stopping Labor from passing Environmental Protections, remember that.

Never forget!

Australia has already handed over $800 million of the estimated $368 billion cost of AUKUS. “If this deal goes ahead…this will amount to the biggest international transfer of sovereign wealth in Australia’s history.” - @ebonybennett.bsky.social on AUKUS at the #RevenueSummit25 #auspol

Fentanyl and coke are the new “weapons of mass destruction” lie. It’s Iraq all over again, folks. It’s always about controlling the oil.

“Logistics? Starving because of logistics…” This video is funny/enraging because he nails it. We have enough food, we just refuse to share resources. This is what I think of every time I hear the word logistics.

What part of ‘there’s no profit making business on a dead planet’ does Susssan Ley not get? Seriously it’s 2025. Have they not learnt a thing? #insiders

If Labor was ever going to use its political capital it should be on this. Billionaire mining giants must pay rent tax so Australians don’t miss out on critical minerals cash boom, says David Pocock, Allegra Spender & Kate Chaney. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne... #auspol #insiders #SundayShot

Where did Andrew Windsor's mum get £12m to bail out her pedo son? Savings from her extra cleaning job? And why do people still refer to this disgusting rapist of trafficked children as Prince if he's given up his royal titles? The only title he should have is Prisoner followed by a number

The UK isolated it's most famous pedophile. The US gave it's the nuclear codes.

Adil Ray, "Prince Andrew has given £12 million of his mum's money to someone he has never met before" "Has renounced all his titles for something he didn't do" "With the same person he's never met before" "At the house of someone he was only friends with" "To be polite" #HIGNFY

Just heard Murray Watt arguing changes to environmental laws were needed so we can export more minerals. Murray, what? They’re for environment protection! Julia Thornton, Surrey Hills The Age, letters

#SundayShot it's good to hear Bob Carr mention that no-one wants to participate in a shooting war twixt US/China because ... but he didn't say that for the geopolitically educated what happened to Ukraine when NATO proxied it in a hopeless strategic sitch is a standout lesson in what not to do.

Both @australianlabor.bsky.social and ACTU's @sallymcmanus.bsky.social need to get THIS 👇 message out to all Australian workers. Fight division. Fight racism and bigotry. Fight the greed of unprincipled bosses. #auspol #UnionStrong #NoRoomForRacism

Why keep throwing invitations to Trump to insult our representatives? Why legitimise his personal pettiness? It reflects badly on our journalists, when we can see US press (and members of our own) being shut out and demonised. We don’t have to play his game. #insiders

Catherine Connolly has won the Irish presidency in a landslide. Because you are allergic to truth telling & principled foreign policy, @albomp.bsky.social @senatorwong.bsky.social, I hope hearing a respected leader speak with honesty & integrity causes you both to break out in hives. #GazaGenocide

I’m good with my taxes subsidizing social welfare for people who can’t afford food. I’m enraged with my taxes subsidizing corporate welfare to businesses that won’t pay a living wage.

So many "shared values," right @albomp.bsky.social @senatorwong.bsky.social? Without even mentioning the genocide, apartheid and stealing other peoples' lands. #auspol #GazaGenocide #GazaHolocaust

One speculates that the ‘critical minerals’ deal struck with the #Trump regime by @albomp.bsky.social will be just another chapter in the Great Australian Resource Heist - containing obscenely generous one-sided commercial terms similar to those offered to the gas extraction cabal #auspol

Honestly, I'd be a little less concerned about the US freefall into fascism if the UK and Australian governments, supposedly of 'the left', were not as shit as they are

Imagine if dental checks were funded by Medicare in Australia, and peridontal disease was picked and treated early, lessening the chance of cardiovascular disease and stroke (and thus saving public health dollars)

What I don’t understand is why the British press don’t hang Brexit around Nigel Farage’s neck like a stockade. It was the single worst act of economic self harm in modern British history. Why doesn’t the British media force him to own that?

Brief health alert 🧪⚕️🩺🦠 The #Stratus #variant of #Covid19, a hybrid of two Omicron variants, is the dominant strain at present (winter, NH). It's Highly Transmissible, and while the severity is said to be low, precautions are best. Mask 😷 up! (pic: generic animation of a SARS-COV-2 variant)

I hope people in the USA & the UK read Virginia Roberts Giuffre's memoir #NobodysGirl. And there's a deafening outcry for those in power (govts, the FBI & the UK Met) to bring the perpetrators of abuse against women & children to justice, whether they're a UK Prince or a wannabe US King. #justice

The mRNA covid-19 vaccines seem to have extended the lives of people being treated for cancers. Those who were given an mRNA covid-19 vaccine within 100 days of starting drugs lived nearly twice as long as people who did not get vaccinated within this time. www.newscientist.com/article/2500...

What I find so funny about this misogyny is that women are constantly lectured our only value is as a mom, we're not serious people unless we're moms, & yet motherhood is used as an insult to discredit women. Society hates women so much.

Reform UK didn't bother paying VAT and it was only uncovered after The Times investigated. Please tell me why it is Disabled People and Pensioners bank accounts we are spying on and not Billionaires and Politicians.

Sally McManus calls out Sussan Ley for “not telling the truth” on multi employer bargaining & saying it’s bad for small business McManus “Small bus is exempted from multi employer bargaining” “either she doesn’t know her facts, but I would say it’s big business in her ear”🔥 #Abc

Friendly reminder that Virginia Giuffre’s posthumous memoir drops Tuesday and contains the truth she wanted the world to hear about those who abused her and the cost of silence. Buy it. Read it. Give the woman some justice.

Question - if wealth taxes don’t work and raise only paltry amounts, how come whenever we start seriously discussing them rich people start pouring resources into trying to start race and class wars as a distraction?

"What this Bill would do is make it harder and more expensive for Australians to get information from the government." "FOI is not perfect, but this bill would make its issues much, much worse." - Australia Institute Researcher Skye Predevac #auspol @skyelark.bsky.social

If Sussan Ley wants to look at waste and inefficiency in govt depts perhaps she could start by looking at LNP politicians on the public purse . A decade of wasteful spending on private consultants, outsourcing during Covid and a decade wasted by doing sfa on housing. She has no sshame .

She was legally declared a victim of a crime in a court of law, she was not an "accuser," she was a VICTIM
