Labor have shown they prefer to maintain status quo The changes to CGT/NG, if they happen, will do fuck all. I have zero faith an Albanese govt will act to address inequality. They choose not to.

Plaything. My @smh cartoon.

"we urge you to suspend Australia’s diplomatic relations with Israel until there is clear evidence of its compliance with international law and humanitarian standards...Steps have already been taken by Ireland, Spain and Italy." And end all weapons deals with Israel. johnmenadue.com/post/2026/04...

Meanwhile Jane Hume admitted on ABC earlier she didn’t know the cost of their new defence plan, and referred PK to James Paterson who has already admitted he doesn’t know the cost. A coordinated circle of fraud. No plan, just a script.

On ANZAC Day, ask the uncomfortable question: when did Australia last fight a war in its own defence? Gallipoli. Vietnam. Iraq. Afghanistan. All at allied request. All failed. Honouring the fallen means being honest — we’ve been practising alliance servitude, not sovereignty. #ANZACDay

“In this new era of being told what we can and can’t say, what we can and can’t feel, who we must and must not mourn, who is and is not human, let me say this while I still can: I’m utterly repulsed by every bit of this horror.” Yes!

#It'sTime for the #Teals to stop being Independent & form a party that all Australians can relate to A party that we can embrace, a party that will #TaxTheWealthy, #TaxMultinationals, #TaxMining, #ScrapAUKUS, Stop subsidising #FossilFuels & pandering to Gambling, break the 2 party duopoly #AusPol

Labor (specifically Albo) is as weak as piss on this issue. WTF is he afraid of, they couldn't be in a stronger position to affect change. If Albo doesn't want to do what is right for the country, he should step down and get out of the way, and let Jim handle it.

David Pocock shreds the idea that gas giants choosing to invest in pipes should mean they avoid tax "No other sector in our economy gets the raw material for free"🔥 Tax breaks for big corps who get our resources for $0 doesn’t make us the lucky country—but the stupid country.🙄

2/2 A far better analysis of how fossil fuel power is wielded and #ClimateCrisis big picture from @garethhutchens.bsky.social: "Certain foreign governments, multinationals and billionaires are extremely invested in maintaining Australia's tax status quo." #auspol www.abc.net.au/news/2026-04...

"An average saving of $204" $4 a week. Thank Christ! That'll keep the wolves from the door! Seriously! You having a stonking majority. The Libs are in chaos. Why is Labor so terrified of success? Just do SOMETHING! You have a mandate to make real reform and you just fanny about on the edges.

While you were tinkering with the tax system, did you close loopholes for wealth 💰 hoarders? If not, why not? You've no problem keeping the vulnerable in hardship with means testing, co-payments & low payments while you green light the greedy rich 💰 to avoid paying their fair share of tax. #auspol

Australia: where you can go to prison for saying #RiverToTheSea but boo at a 60 thousand year old Indigenous culture and completely get away with it. Disgraceful.

"...where he read from a teleprompter in the type of iambic pentameter reserved for primary school teachers reading Possum Magic aloud..." 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Bloody brilliant!

History shows us that rorting is rife when governments fund the private sector to deliver a public good.

"Buffer zone" is doublespeak for "territory inside the borders of another nation that is now ours, which we will fill with 'settlers', who will then claim that they need another 'buffer zone' to protect them from people nearby who, for some reason (probably antisemitism) resent their presence".

Netanyahu is a fucking fascist who's deploying Joseph Goebbels style propaganda. He's accusing the other side of that which he's guilty!

‘Bartlett did not seem particularly interested in balance, or inconvenient detail. His story had three major themes – he doesn’t like the Chinese, he doesn’t like renewables and EVs, and he doesn’t like federal Energy and Climate Minister Chris Bowen.’

A prime-time TV report on renewables and EVs fell apart at the first fact-check. Misinformation is distorting Australia’s energy debate – and being amplified in mainstream media, Giles Parkinson writes. #auspol #Energy #Climate #Renewables #Media

From the River to the Sea, make Sydney Chris Minns free.

Dr Richard Denniss dismantles the gas industry’s favorite threat. If taxes kill investment, why is the gas industry rushing to Norway to pay 78%? 🙄 “They are playing us for fools.” 🔥 Nationals’ Susan McDonald has no rebuttal & scrambles to change the subject. #auspol

Won’t someone think of the rapists*? *white, right wing rapists only.

Oh so much to investigate. Used and abused candidates, fraudulent campaigns, daily media lies, Trump & project 2025 connections, Neo Nazi connections, white supremacy/ Eugenics slogans & messaging, stunts in parliament, fraud, corruption, etc. it’s months worths of investigative articles.

theklaxon.com.au/rineharts-ad... Funny how they are using Ch 7 material 😳. I cannot watch presenters like Natalie Barr. Her blatant bias towards all things conservative/right wing makes me cringe. Stokes’s mouthpiece. Ugh.

theklaxon.com.au/minns-anti-p... Yes to both! Thank you to our judiciary for being strong enough to say no to these injustices.

#PV industry hits back at #Coalition claims solar panels are made up of toxic materials that “will not recycle” and that reusing and recycling #panels is an economic dead end.

Thinking of those who are waking up every day to check if family and friends are safe, and who are having to endure our government continually failing to acknowledge, call out and act on war crimes, genocide.

"Don't think for a minute you don't have power... don't think for a minute you can't make change." - Richard Denniss. See more from the Climate Integrity Summit here: https://australiainstitute.org.au/event/climate_integrity_summit_2025/

No offence Gina Rinehart, but if prosecuting war criminals isn’t obvious to you… maybe you’re just an idiot? Best sit this one out.

Dear Dan #Tehan, sick stuff my boy, when one lacks the fortitude to choose the side of reason and common decency, #Australians see you counted among the genocidal savages! #auspol #Insiders

Australia is missing out on over $2 million EVERY HOUR without a 25% gas export tax. While massive gas export companies are making a fortune on skyrocketing gas prices, everyday Australians are paying the price. @grogsgamut.bsky.social #auspol

3️⃣... The mask slipped: “Unfortunately there isn’t really a picture of it. It was photoshopped.” Photoshopped. To smear a journalist as a militant and greenlight his killing. This is the “most moral army in the world” at work—doctoring pics like amateur propagandists because the truth doesn’t fit

I was planning on going to Qld next month but will now cancel my trip in solidarity. I urge others to do the same. We cannot support such policies and police states.

A statement on behalf of the Australian Cartoonists Association regarding James Hillier aka Nordacious and the QLD Government:

Why can't the Australian Greens get higher votes? It's called the Minerals Council + Meat & Livestock Association + Farmers Federation + Business Council aka funding from Australia's richest right wing, racist, colonialist miners, landholders, media owners and farmers. Subtle as a sledgehammer:

Yesterday, in a strong day for democracy, Newcastle Writers’ Festival featured a panel discussion with writers including Randa Abdel-Fattah. I was delighted to host the panel before a full house.

These degenerates WANT to cause a mass panic, they WANT to drive this country into the fucking dirt! All so that Hastie can be PM first and stop Chalmers from rightfully nuking the capital gains discount and negative gearing, parasites!

There has been much commentary suggesting that Anthony Albanese's approach to reform - or even just good policy adjustment - is "cautious" or "incremental" or "managerial". This long list suggests lazy, spineless, and unaccountable. #auspol
