Extraordinary, breathtaking imagery. But deeply upsetting ecological change is underway, that will impact communities and culture. This is the very real impact of climate change. And yet, Australian governments keep approving fossil fuel development projects. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-12...

"A safe pair of hands"? @mrrexpatrick.bsky.social on Dennis Richardson, the "roving insider" picked by Albo to do the Bondi Inquiry #auspol #RC michaelwest.com.au/albanese-ric...

“Australians are told that strong security laws and large intelligence budgets keep them safe. Yet violent attacks still occur, early warning signs are missed, and those who expose wrongdoing face prosecution.” theaimn.net/why-asio-and...

Sexual violence against children has become entrenched, systemic and increasingly widespread across the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), with new data showing a sharp rise in cases since 2022, according to the UN Children’s Fund (UNICEF).

Coming in January: “Suicide”, a book about truth, law, and mass death rogerhallam.com/suicide-a-bo... This book was written from a prison cell and features a foreword by one of my visitors, the Pulitzer Prize winner Chris Hedges. for refusing to stay silent about the climate crisis.

I probably committed a thought crime in NSW but fuck it Maybe what 2024 NYE could have looked like #NYE

Documents reveal one of Australia's biggest oil and gas companies knowingly shed plastic into the ocean for two months before notifying the offshore regulator.

My favourite thing about yesterday was having NITV on in the background and hearing a man on a promo say "We were protected, loved and proud." Imagine a continent filled with hundreds of Nations of people who were all Protected Loved and Proud. Imagine being Protected Loved and Proud constantly.

"You shouldn't be getting a medal for being robbed by your own government." Betty Brown 92, the oldest surviving victim of the Post Office Scam was outraged about being in the New Year Honours List. We want compensation and prison sentences not worthless medals.

RC into Israel’s influence on politicians and Australian politics? #auspol

Has anyone ever explained why the IDF is allowed to recruit here? Is any other nationality allowed to go and join what equates to a foreign army? Does dual citizenship give you that option? Been struggling with this a while thought I’d throw it out there.

Not a religious issue, but a political and ethical one. Distinguishing between Judaism as a diverse religion and Zionism as a political project, is not antisemitism. It is a necessary condition for justice. #auspol johnmenadue.com/post/2025/12...

Calling out bad behaviour often leads to enormous adverse consequences for whistleblowers who might already be vulnerable. Those actually committing wrongdoing appear to be protected by power + privilege afforded by wealth and connections. It must change. www.sbs.com.au/news/article...

Gang gang face 🥲

Its been great surviving the year with all of you, please see my final article for the year: 'Happy New Year?' #auspol See you all next year :) open.substack.com/pub/joeljenk...

Same.

"Crackdown" ... hardly. Another year rolls by, $10B in pokies losses (clubs, pubs, govt net profits). NY wish - politicians be honest and just say the money is too big #auspol #pokies michaelwest.com.au/pokies-the-b...

Please sign and share.

We definitely do!

Precisely.

Thanks heaps @Israel for publishing an important list of key groups and people to follow to keep track of your genocide, ethnic cleansing, apartheid, terrorism, illegal occupation and various other war crimes and crimes against humanity. It's most helpful of you. 🙌🏻 #FuckZionism #StopIsrael

Australia only gets a cursory mention as we’re not a racist country?? We still have not properly faced and reconciled colonisation here. ‘If there are injustices in the past they manifest as inequalities in the present’

We are using Earth’s mesosphere and stratosphere—the layers above the surface-hugging troposphere—as an incinerator dump for space machinery.

Perfect example of the stupid stupid man

So to keep people safe we need to reduce guns and also more guns? WTF? Albanese and Minns need to take a big step back and zoom out to the big picture not just through Zionist goggles. Governing for just 0.4% is nuts.

I feel like I’m being trolled lol

Gang gang cockatoos are always gonna put a smile on your dial

Centrists seem to have no idea how illegitimate and undemocratic they now appear to huge masses of ordinary people. The cowardice, the hypocrisy, the lies, the selling out, the fascistic overreach to support Israel's depravity. Business as usual is just waking people up.

apple.news/ACF80_gvjSlO... Again with the demands. So you’ve had 2 and a half years of feeling unsafe due to rising antisemitism. Does that include the acts done by your own? It pales in comparison to what Aboriginal people face daily, and with no special envoy.

Waitlists for young people are ridiculous and some give up 😞 Improved access to care for women and children; tailored, holistic approaches for young people; more programs that embrace cultural diversity; co-design, delivery and evaluation for culturally and linguistically diverse communities.

How many communities would love to be this high on the Premiers list of priorities. The actions of a few and the wishes of a few will now dictate the majority. Could we not just enforce the existing laws? www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Another First Nations woman dead in police custody taking the total to 59 Indigenous deaths in the hands of police in just 2 years. We have shown how quickly we can act against racism towards Jewish Australians. Why has that same urgency never existed for First Nations ppl?

"Poor people are subsidising the income of older non-working people who are significantly wealthy beyond owning their house. People who don't need help are getting support from people who do. Beyond being unfair, it is poisoning the well." If only we had a government who'd tackle #inequality.

Hopefully next time around people will be more strategic and not fall into the trap of voting for less shit in a 2 horse race to the bottom. #auspol podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/7...

How any of this helps Australia’s Jewish community, let alone the nation as a whole, is apparently not something they care to ask themselves.

"Israel’s assaults on Gaza have shattered the pretense that its violence is episodic or defensive, exposing genocide as a structural feature of its settler-colonial project ...Jewish safety is clearly inseparable from the question of Palestinian freedom." #GazaGenocide www.972mag.com/gaza-genocid...

Let's hope we are still able to hear straight talk from our leaders without certain truths and phrases being outlawed in the future. If Minns or Albo pass censorship laws on people like Nasser, the courts and public protest will show them what is just. #Auspol

In the neoliberal age, the Royal Commission has become a primary mechanism for the ritualistic denial of responsibility, serving to manage public outrage, absorb political pressure, and create an illusion of decisive action. #auspol theaimn.net/the-theatre-...
