🚨 Public power should serve people, not billionaires. Handing corporate execs the keys to shape Australia’s R&D future is a breach of trust. We need integrity, transparency & stronger conflict-of-interest laws—now. ✊ #HandsOffPublicPolicy #IntegrityFirst #auspol www.getup.org.au/campaigns/ec...

🚨 PR firms are helping fossil fuel giants spread climate misinformation—like “EVs catch fire more” or “natural gas is clean.” Spoiler: they don’t, and it isn’t. Australia’s Senate is investigating. Time to hold the spin doctors accountable. 🌏🔥 theconversation.com/pr-firms-are... #Auspol

While everyday Aussies shoulder rising taxes, fossil fuel giants are dodging their fair share—again. The Petroleum Resource Rent Tax remains the budget’s biggest rort. Time to ask: who’s really footing the bill? #auspol #taxjustice #PRRT www.crikey.com.au/2025/09/30/p...

⚽️🏛️ When your morning kickabout at Parliament turns into a lobbying opportunity… The Australian Parliament Sports Club is now officially a registered lobby group—with gambling industry ties. Sport, politics, and influence just collided. #auspol #sportswashing www.crikey.com.au/2025/09/30/p...

Even after a thorough, excoriating royal commission, #robodebt is a stark reminder of how privileged powerful people get off Scotty free. The conflict-of-interest-riddled performance of the #NACC commissioner maintains the cosy status quo: the appearance of oversight, but no-one held accountable.

#Auspol Find out about the creepy Alliance for Responsible Citizenship where Andrew Hastie sits on the Board with John Howard & Tony Abbott. International gang including MAGA congresspeople. Christian Nationalist. Pro fossil fuel. Not sure if AH went in Feb but… open.substack.com/pub/lucyham2...

The real "cruel hoax"? Pretending the Coalition’s climate denial is serious policy while Labor hides behind it to do the bare minimum. The bar isn’t low—it’s subterranean. Australia deserves better than vibes over vision. 🌏🔥 #AusPol #ClimateAction www.thenewdaily.com.au/news/politic...

When free speech becomes a punchline and authoritarianism hides behind a suit, it's not just politics—it’s identity warfare. From neoliberalism to nihilism, the right’s compass now points to the anxious white male id. #auspol www.crikey.com.au/2025/09/22/d...

CPAC Australia 2025 wasn’t “centre right”—it was a full-throttle rally for radical illiberalism. From praising Pinochet to branding Net Zero as “communism,” the mask is off. Time to call it what it is: authoritarianism in a suit. #AusPol #CPAC2025 substack.com/inbox/post/1...

🚨BREAKING: Jillian Segal, Australia’s Antisemitism Envoy, is still a top exec at pro-Israel lobby group ECAJ—despite gov’t claims she’s “former” president. Her taxpayer-funded role mirrors ECAJ’s agenda. Foreign interference concerns mounting #Auspol theklaxon.com.au/jillian-sega...

ANZ has acted deceitfully and it has profited. Misconduct of this magnitude cannot be waived through as business as usual. I asked ASIC, after 7 misconduct investigations in 8 years, where's the proof this fine alone will change the culture?

Science is under siege—and the attackers aren’t just trolls. From climate denial to vaccine lies, disinformation is being weaponised by powerful forces. It's not just a threat to truth—it's a threat to civilisation. Time to fight back with facts. 🔬🔥 #auspol www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Can’t let the people know what we’re doing, they might learn who we really work for and understand that it’s not them. So much for greater transparency eh @albomp.bsky.social @auspol.info

What about the Human Rights Commissioner Lorraine Finlay, who came from the Institute of Public Affairs, and speaks at the Samuel Griffith Society events? Before her it was Tim Wilson also from the fossil front IPA, that ran a campaign to abolish the Human Rights Commission.

#breaking Greens just set up an inquiry into Labor's secret climate risk report. People have leaked that this report is "dire”, “diabolical” & “extremely confronting”. We deserve to know the truth about what climate change will do to Australia.

Hey Australians. Get out to the rally nearest you today. We must show that there are far more Aussies who care about families having dozens of members murdered by a rogue state, who care about hundreds of thousands of dead, catastrophically injured, orphaned, starved *children*. #auspol

The Productivity Commission talks a big about living standards… talk is all it has, tbh

@jimchalmers.bsky.social why raise or broaden GST? Why a road tax? why tax mid low-mid earners at all ? We can have all the free roads, schools, hospitals, care, support we need if we taxed the rich and multi nationals properly, and stop giving billions to a fucked USA and Fossil fuels companies.

www.crikey.com.au/2025/08/20/b... If sanctions against 🇮🇱, or a downgrading of diplomatic relations and the expulsion of the 🇮🇱ambassador, aren’t justified by the Netanyahu government’s genocide in the eyes of govt, perhaps Israel’s routine interference in Australian domestic politics might. #auspol

Australia hits back! 🎯

The febrile reactions of Netanyahu and co to Australia's very limited actions so far shows and underscores how much moral and practical power we do actually have on Gaza. If we didn't matter, we would be ignored. We should do much more, including applying sanctions, to help end the slaughter.
