Here's our documentary footage of what really happened at the protests against Isaac Herzog's state visit to Australia

yet another reason why Zoe Daniel should be back in Federal politics...

Cathy Wilcox to Albo: what if that "bed" your mother spoke of means kids stuck in Syria, "stigmatised, traumatised and radicalised"? You're missing the point, Cathy. They're not old enough to vote ... #auspol

The fight for Farrer is on. Pitting the #communityindependent who performed so well last time against the 'major parties'. Who've tied her hands with their political funding legislation largesse for themselves, limiting hers. #democracy or #duopoly #auspol www.climate200.com.au/campaign/far...

Dude, "seppos" is an extremely toxic term. The term exists to suggest an entire nation of 350m plus people are shit and belong in a septic tank. Don't use it. It's comparable to racism, while not so about "race" meaning ethnicity, it IS name-calling / discrimination based on "cultural identity".

Watching Insiders (late) and saw the lovely tribute to our beloved @kudelka.bsky.social. They said he was 'loved across the political spectrum', so I am quite sure there is a little cloud protesting 'not the whole spectrum' floating above South Hobart right now.

Well one good thing is that the Fennell movie has pushed Wuthering Heights the novel into the Sunday Times bestseller list, and that’s something to celebrate. I’ve never believed you had to pick a Brontë sister team, and hopefully more people reading WH will bring more readers to the classics!

on the NSW SC decision to not overturn Major Event declaration by NSW Tourism Minister. As Wendy Bacon shows, the decision turns on judicial deference to police (assumed officers act reasonably) and judicial interpretation of a political event as “cultural”. michaelwest.com.au/when-politic...

Senior journalist Peter Lalor was among those attacked by police at the protest against Israel President Issac Herzog. “We were assaulted on the streets of our town by police itching for a fight". theklaxon.com.au/g2vd

Labor continues to use the nonsensical mutterings of Coalition bobbleheads desperate for relevancy as proof its hands are tied on doing anything that would actually matter. open.substack.com/pub/amyremei...

What an amazing human being is our very own Kon I nominated him for Aussie of the Year many years ago Will do so again for 2027 He’s been a powerful voice for our wonderful migrant community Sometimes, a lonely voice He’s spot on here, as usual Bless you Kon

Wow! This is some top-notch investigative journalism. The report claims the 3 million Epstein files released are only 2% of the total. The massive scale of what’s still missing is hard to comprehend.

I would bet my piano that this facility will end up servicing US submarines. #AusPol

The designated character part for all female columnists at The Australian is Mean Girl (for men, the character is Too Clever By Half, until they reach a certain age and become Old Man Shouting At Clouds)

We will all pay for this

You're not the only one! There's an idea floating around for an #AusSky as I think the Canadians are doing one but I don't know if it's actually possible?Am resisting making a list but can't think of another way. There is so much US stuff shoved at us constantly. We've got our own shit to deal with!

a dog's breakfast

AUKUS is sinking and Labor responds by making up a $30 billion un-budgeted AUKUS announceable for the SA State election. This stuff is straying so far from reality.

Just sayin'... www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

The new Liberal leaders are inferior in so many ways. But I’ll tell you this without hesitation. Never have have we seen such magnificent heads of hair on a leadership duo.

Those “Great cappuccinos”, part of our strong coffee culture, are thanks to Italian migrants who faced the same ignorant, uncultured, populist anti-immigration BS you’re peddling now, Angus What an embarrassing dickhead Taylor is🤦‍♀️

Just gave a pre-recorded (thankfully) interview for ABC Radio's AM program about the Liberal's "women problem" and their recent #LibSpill. It'll be aired tomorrow morning at 7am-ish on Radio National or 8am-ish on the local ABC Radio stations 🤗 #AusPol

Rupert Lowe wants Restore Britain to be a national party, competing to offer an agenda further right of Reform. (It will be closer to a 2-4% proposition than 10%. There are several < 1% parties in this space like Advance UK & others)

Tell you who we'd like to dismiss @albomp.bsky.social

A must-read post, by @mrvandenbroeke.bsky.social He kindly read and assessed a March 1980 article "Glacial melt - how soon? how fast?" and see how good the predictions were. Aside atmospheric CO2 (mercifully less than thought), it is "remarkably accurate. allouryesterdays.info/2026/02/10/r...

Ossoff: We would be naive not to expect dirty tricks. This man tried to steal the presidency when he lost it the first time. The best insurance against dirty tricks is landslide margins of victory.

David Speers is rather like a pretty good head of hair, dedicated to growing fools out of its arse. May as well add that Patricia is a magnificent lantern jaw, fed and watered by a massive disappointment. Jaysus, Richard, I'll probably die for this ...

Here you go, looks like Vic Pol are copying NSW Pol. Are we all enjoying the Social Cohesion yet? #HerzogNotWelcome #auspol www.wyndhamtv.com.au/terrorism-ac...

NSW Police on the defensive in the wake of Monday's attacks on protestors as details of victims/those arrested begin to emerge - such as Ali (below) #auspol #Herzog @sstephanietrann.bsky.social michaelwest.com.au/herzog-prote...

I am deeply concerned about the potential impact of NSW Police actions on vulnerable youth. Images that show Muslims in peaceful prayer being pulled and thrown without warning can be leveraged to radicalise and recruit disaffected young people. This is extremely dangerous and counterproductive.

Steve Bannon, Trump’s confidante & henchman, had an intimate relationship w/Epstein. So why hasn’t he been hauled before Congress to answer questions? My latest: Bannon’s communications w/Epstein, legal efforts to hide them, & Bannon’s hours of Epstein video he's hiding. youtu.be/bW4ERGqtqAU?...

I surprised myself with how intensely angry I felt seeing snipers on the Opera House at that pro-genocide fundraiser last month.

Not a shock that Tim Wilson put his hand up to go on 730. Lulz he wants to talk about CFMEU because “that’s what Australians are concerned about”

Just leaving this here.

Politician at heart of $80 million Cayman Islands Watergate scandal quits Opposition front bench… …In a bid to become leader of the Liberal Party of Australia.

Press gallery having orgasms at not having to worry at all about policy and being able to talk about “cut through” “conviction” “a good look” “win back the centre” all without one iota of supporting evidence

This.

Massie: "What's happened it seems is that the US attorneys and/or the FBI have redacted documents, given them to the DOJ, and then the DOJ hasn't done their diligence to go get the original documents."

QUT will take over famous literary magazine Meanjin, after the journal was closed by Melbourne Uni Publishing last year. This is a win for all who campaigned to save the masthead, but hardly makes up for the damage done last year www.smh.com.au/culture/book...

This is courage and integrity, and it hasn't come from a party, but an Independent. This is our future. Go Sophie. #auspol

why dont the liberals just take turns on the leadership and we can stop when we get a good one

Breaking MS NOW: In a major defeat for Mike Johnson, 3 House Republicans bucked their leaders to block legislation that would have restricted Congress' ability to strike down Trump’s tariffs. The final tally was 214-217, with 3 Republicans joining Democrats in opposition.

We're in a dangerous moment, led by the wrong men
