Anything nice happening ATM? Anything positive? Praiseworthy? #auspol

300 more jobs (read, people) to go from the CSIRO. These cuts are on top of the 800 suppport roles already gone. Australia needs science innovation. And the CSIRO should have government funding certainty. You're losing us, @albomp.bsky.social. #auspol csirostaff.org.au/news/media/2...

Calling Labor's current approach "incrementalism" or "small target" or whatever makes it sound like they are are an overly cautious progressive govt. Matters like this show that they are actively pursuing policies that make them indistinguishable from the centre right: not incrementalists at all.

It's horrible seeing sheep and other livestock cooking in the summer sun in central and western Vic as you drive past. Esp during a drought, pathetically huddling under the 1 tree in the paddock. #auspol

Support link for Cairo Takeaway #auspol #SuckEggsNewscorpse

FFS #auspol This lawsuit comes after Cairo Takeaway reported concerns relating to an incident that they believed was an attempt by a major media organisation and an individual to entrap them and publicly humiliate them. Cairo Takeaway were being targeted because of their support for a Free Palestine

Society in general makes a big noise about DV but it's the same kind of noise they make about racism - sounds good but behind it is the ingrained belief that the victims are "asking for it" or "deserving". Sadly, a great many victims believe the same.

Massive crowds swarmed Parliament steps today for the latest anti-immigration rally

🇦🇺 pays $1.5mil per person each year to detain people on Nauru. During last Senate Estimates, I asked about links to organised crime and value for money, I was told there is no need for concern. Now whistleblower evidence paints a very different picture. www.smh.com.au/national/pou...

Why am I not surprised 🤔? #auspol "... Summers contemplates the Nordic paradox, a phenomenon whereby the countries that are the closest to reaching gender equity seem to have higher than average rates of domestic violence."

anyone else been tossed out of meta sm and had to do a full username, password, code, sorry wrong password, etc ?? and they keep asking for more info and with each step as tho it's necessary until you notice the 'skip' or 'later' button? Is it to do with the U16 ban or just me? Fk off meta #auspol

How much money do you think a private school linked to Scientology should get from the NSW Government? In 2022, the Athena school with only 55 students received total Government funding of over a million dollars.

What are “rusted-on” Labor voters thinking ?

Tamworth Council went to court to try and stop a wind farm. It didn’t go well. Tamworth Council argued that the wind turbines would be too big for local roads. The judge pointed out there is no approval needed to drive on a public road reneweconomy.com.au/youve-got-to...

I don't like this idea, but ... Is Labor's parliamentary party's arrogance & authoritarian style PARTLY bc they are half women who are still structurally disadvantaged in the workplace and easier to intimidate, and MSM like to shoot any that stick their heads up? It's very blokey at the top #auspol

The new CEO at the Children's Hospital has just cancelled an expert panel discussion on children and war. Why would hospital admin step in and cancel an educational event, run by experts, at a hospital where many work in refugee health, about the impact of war on children? 1/2

The QLD Crisafulli government doesn't care who gets hurt by their ideological bullshit. They're not trying to protect kids at all. They're just actioning their ignorance and bigotry against the transgender community. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

I was curious and looked up Brianna Lyman, found this from biblepulze.com (christo-nats I assume). "a known name in the field of political commentary and investigative reporting" and she doesn't know NY's immigration history?! I'm Australian and know it from watching movies.

Apart from leaking to the SMH and the Age like a rusty colander, this would have to be the most tiresome little man in the Australian public service Hyperbolic, publicity mad, sinophobic, constantly beating his own drum when absolutely nobody has asked - don't ever get between him and a headline .

1/ Stephen McInerney -- ex-Ramsay Centre for Western Civilisation Guy & current Dean of Studies & Associate Professor of Literature at Catholic tertiary institution Campion College in Sydney -- urges support for Tom Sewell's incipient neo-Nazi political party.

A university "investing" in a foreign weapons manufacturer from rogue state currently executing a genocide. Aren't they supposed to "invest" in research and teaching? I bet massive exec salaries coincide with the shift in spending priorities. We're losing our civilisation brick by brick.

I wonder what's on the paper 🤔

Australians voted for stronger climate action, not weaker environment laws. Australia Institute research shows that Australia is currently expanding gas and coal, with 94 new fossil fuel projects under development. Sign our petition calling on Minister Watt to stop new gas and coal! #auspol

Delivering on an election promise by handing over my 2008-2025 election night tie to the Museum of Australian Democracy, Old Parliament House, Canberra. When I paid $20 for it in 2008, never thought it would end up in a museum.

Last month The Australian platformed two players in the nasty NatCon space as if they were just urbane nostalgics for a better Britain before “indiscriminate” immigration. You need to see who these men are. #Auspol lucyham29.substack.com/p/the-austra...

😂

I agree, but this fight with the Nats and Libs is so tiring - a distraction from Labor letting big fossil fuel run the country and divert policy away from ever being progressive. The LNP idiots wld mean nothing if we all (yes YOU Labor) ignored them! #auspol

WTF! #auspol

This is about profit-to-member funds - not other funds and it's not made clear. I've noticed the Guardian and ABC/SBS doing this, conflating private funds with retail and Public sector funds. Any neg news is generalised. www.sbs.com.au/news/article...

Well done Bishop! Stand up and be counted!

Labor wouldn’t possibly go back on their word so soon would th—…?!

Suprise, Suprise. The new environmental laws are designed to fast track development. Cause you know development has been sooo hamstrung. Just look around.
