PM Albanese calls on the Coalition to get their act together & stop playing politics with the #Bondi tragedy. “My message is that this is not a time for partisanship.” “This is a time for national unity.” “After the Port Arthur massacre, that is what occurred.” #auspol

These personal attacks are undignified, unwarranted and divisive. The whole press conference was unhinged from reality and dangerous for long term social cohesion. I couldn't be more digusted and disappointed in the LNP's response to a national tragedy.

While in Opposition, Albanese backed the Jewish community against the LNP govt who tried to undermine them by weakening hate speech laws. In govt he’s given them the strongest protections a PM has ever implemented. Anyone booing clearly listens to too much of Sky News or the AJA

That LNP press conference was a disgrace. At a time when our leaders should be pulling us together they are trying to tear us apart. It's so dangerous. Using this tragedy for political gain is abhorrent. #auspol

Who ever this is serving, it’s not helping anything www.thenewdaily.com.au/opinion/2025...

I really dislike this new trend of attacking politicians if they don’t attend memorial events, by claiming it shows they don’t care about your community, and also booing them when they do attend, because how dare they show their face in your community.

"Not only was Australia’s shaky sense of safety irrevocably shattered, the social contract Australians relied on their politicians to uphold, to place the nation’s needs above politics, has been destroyed by the Coalition." @amyremeikis.bsky.social #auspol www.thenewdaily.com.au/opinion/2025...

Ah yes, that's where a recently unemployed 24-year-old bricklayer, who spent years hanging around Australia's pro-IS network, and his 50-year-old migrant father were radicalised: university anti-genocide protests 🙄 Be fucking serious for a moment.

As I understand today's discussion, we can stop an ISIS cell by policing the speaker list at writer's festivals and the BA syllabus at Unis. And by "stopping demonstrations." This is madness.

ICYMI- yesterday's #Auspol cartoon for @australia.theguardian.com

Zoe Daniel has unleashed on Tim Wilson saying he’s now “compromised” after taking a Net Zero policy to the election & turning his back on the ppl of Goldstein “To stay in the party at all, I think is really problematic.” “He failed. He’s ineffective.”🔥 #Abc

Listen and enjoy todays podcast of OLD EVERALD AND YOUNG JAMES TALK POLITICS. No political spin. No whitewashing of events. Today we hit #Liberals for ratting on #climatechange, #Trump for continuing his usual idiocy and Victorian Government for its unworkable laws on #youthcrime.

So I’ve had a very brief search of the Epstein database in the last half hour. Noticed Epstein was paying for Google search result poisoning and attending hacker conferences

They built a corrupt NDIS having voted against it, slowed comp supperanuation, delayed / overpaid for a slow NBN, underfunded Medicare, rigged school funding, raided the Green Fund for coal/gas, let defence rust and offended our neighbours - if only climate change was their only betrayal! #auspol

The LNP is at an all time low but it could be worse. Media never question why they claimed even just b4 the election that Net Zero was good for the economy. Never question their broken promises on energy prices inc $550 off bills by axing the carbon tax. Prices went up instead. #auspol

Sarah Henderson laughs away as Peta Credlin suggests Henderson, Andrew Hastie & Jacinta Price will soon be back on the front bench. They can’t wait to feast on Ley’s carcass. Very off putting. #SkyAfterDark #Libspill

Liberals landing on Net Zero. The Age

electable /ɪˈlɛktəbl/ adjective (of a politician or party) having the qualities which make election likely or plausible.

Dan Tehan concedes the Nationals are pulling the strings of the Liberal Party after claiming they’ll reduce their fair share of emissions like “comparable countries” Sarah Ferguson “Which countries are you saying you’re going to follow?” Dan Tehan “The National Party”🤦‍♂️💥 #abc730

😂

PANIC!! My @smh @theage cartoon

In 2025 if you can’t even tell the Australian people that you don’t wish to “double down on the use of coal” - you may as well also give up on any ambition you have to be in government. This is a disastrous interview by Dan Tehan. Weak. Confused. Pathetic. #abc730

Matt Canavan roasted after refusing to agree with experts or even the NFF that there’s a greater cost to getting rid of Net Zero, than if we were to remain committed to the target. Canavan who has not done any modeling in his Net Zero Review, insists expert modeling is “wrong”🤦‍♂️ #Abc

Canavan spouts utter bullshit about net zero and wind farms. Here’s a wind farm vs a QLD open cut coal mine. You be the judge. #insiders

Breaking: The police officer charged with assaulting fmr Greens candidate Hannah Thomas on June 27 has been charged again for recklessly causing grievous bodily harm which carries a max penalty of 14yrs in prison. NSW cops only just realised months later & added this on? Ffs🙄🚩

This is a welcoming account.

A reporter from the Australian is one of the group of signatories to the Pentagon's new press corps rules which prompted a universal walk-out from credible news outlets.

AOC: And they are able to radicalize a generation of young boys in particular, away from healthy masculinity and into an insecure masculinity that requires the domination of others who are poorer, browner, darker, or a different gender than them.

Welcome home. My @smh @theage cartoon.

That LR continues to harrass this couple is a national embarrassment. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-10...

All these headlines saying “Bondi Goes on the Attack.” Really? She wasn’t in the octagon, she’s a public servant who was at an oversight hearing. Her job was to answer questions. She refused to do her job. Stop glamorizing and whitewashing this moronic, performative bullshit.

Another shot of the famous Midnight Oil House. This time showing off the sky.

Just talked to "middle Australia" mum's about their sons. It was disappointing. I told them they need to ark up and clearly explain to them who they raised. There is some bad shit going on out there and as mothers we need to stand firm.

A world first win. Unions in Australia holding Uber to account ✊

Zali is such a good and thoughtful communicator.

Mockler: We can look at the acceleration of the radicalization of young men through a few frameworks. There's the covid pandemic, which had people isolated, had a bubble around themselves, and a lot of young men got sucked down these algorithms, I've seen it happen to my close friends.

A Spanish naval vessel will join the Global Sumud Flotilla to provide assistance and, if necessary, conduct rescues, says Spanish PM Pedro Sanchez. Italy earlier announced it was dispatching a frigate after a night of drone attacks on the flotilla opposed by the Israeli gov't.

The Sumud Flotilla is under attack. Thiago Ávila, a Brazilian organiser, reports 10 drone attacks on the smaller boats, seemingly to destroy their sails. Citizens from the entire world are aboard. It is carrying food for the victims of genocide. Governments need to protect it.

Ted O’Brien defends Andrew Hastie claiming his attack on Liberal colleagues, labelling them “cowards” & “muppets” is simply “robust debate.” Insists it’s “how you get to good policy”🤔 If you haven’t verbally abused your work colleagues, you’re not doing a good job says Ted🤣🤦‍♂️

The consumption of McDonalds started in the 1950’s and has rapidly grown. Narcissists have become increasingly common in the last few decades, especially in the US. Therefore McDonalds causes narcissism It should be banned Thank you for your attention to this matter!
