Albo has already adopted so many of the LNP's policies and positions, I guess alienating female voters was the obvious next step. #AusPol #DifficultWomen

The CGT 50% discount not only distorts the housing market it is also the most inequitable policy you could dream up. (Which is probably why John Howard and Peter Costello did it) www.theguardian.com/business/gro...

Protecting children? Where's the gambling ads ban? Why is his government subsidising fossil fuels, SUVs & large utes/trucks which are more deadly to pedestrians & cyclists (such as kids)? Why's he making homes more unaffordable with negative gearing & CGT tax discounts for the wealthy? #AusPol

Albanese Labor Govt: The Australian Department of Defence expanded its relationship with Palantir, awarding $AUD7.6 million one-year contract in February 2026 for an "ICT System Platform" to support the Cyber Warfare Division. This follows a 2024 $AUD7.1 million contract for data services. #auspol

I didn’t hear this myself, but I am furious if this actually IS @albomp.bsky.social ‘s opinion of Grace Tame. She is a strong, serious, advocate for things that matter. To all of us. I cannot relate to a male PM who would hold that opinion. #auspol

Since the Andrew Mountbatten story broke, there has been much talk about breaking away from the crown and becoming a republic. I think the more pressing issue is breaking away from the US and ending the toxic relationship we have with them. Then work on a republic. #auspol

Bangarra Dance Theatre, Australia's leading Indigenous dance company, has won the prestigious international award, the Golden Lion, at the Venice Biennale. How wonderful! I saw one of their productions years ago and it was fantastic! www.abc.net.au/news/2026-02...

If we had a decent media, when Angus Taylor uses the words “our core beliefs”, he should be asked every time - WHAT ARE “OUR” CORE BELIEFS? Further, if he tries to answer with what they are not, he should be asked again. WHAT ARE “OUR” CORE BELIEFS? He has no idea. #auspol

These companies factor in such fines as a minor cost and inconvenience. This should be billions at the very least; removal of existing rights, permissions, leases, and even ownership of land should also be penalties. Alcoa should be kicked out of Australia, along with all US military. #auspol

Oi @albomp.bsky.social So is hanson gonna be prosecuted under new hate speech laws? #auspol

4 years for Labor do nothing. Western Sydney University chancellor says Job Ready Graduates is one of the 5 worst policy decisions #auspol

Epstein's pals Palantir legged over Australian regulators claiming to be a "small co - not part of larger group" despite actual size of $450B. Lying while they get untendered govt contracts. @sstephanietrann.bsky.social #auspol michaelwest.com.au/palantir-sur...

1.2m houses built. 95%+ bought by investors with the negative gearing and CGT discount rorts still active. Housing still in crisis. Govt: how is there still a crisis? it's a mystery #auspol

Stupendously Unnecessary Vehicles ( #SUV ‘s) are killing and maiming many more people in accidents than less high-fronted ones. Phase them out, tax the off the roads, stop this lunacy now. They are not needed status symbols causing death and damage. More investment in #public #transport needed!

I wish the ACCC had much greater powers and that the financial penalties to these big companies was commensurate to their earnings - as in it financially hurts them to the point they change their wicked ways

Cole’s and Palantir are both centred on delivering data harvesting intelligence with no regard to your privacy. Peter Thiel says all I need to know. #auspol

Sthalekar calls it - stunning! #AUSvIND

The thing about the skeleton and the luge is that you have to learn whether you would be good at the skeleton or the luge, and I don't know how we don't hear about more people dying from finding out if they were good at the skeleton or the luge.

I only heard the last 20 -25 minutes of #insiders when they were discussing the Sydney Herzog Protest, Minns & Albo. I didn't hear one 'journo' mention that these protests occur because millions of us are opposed to the genocide in GAZA, not because we are 'lefties'! #auspol

It’s so funny to think about the fact that there’s people out there deferring every life decision to this

Angus Taylor wants to focus on immigration? Tell him & Pauline Hanson Australia’s biggest migrant group is STILL the English 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 964,000 born in England, more than India (916k), China (700k) or NZ (618k). Source: www.abs.gov.au/statistics/p... #auspol #angustaylor #tonyabbott #paulinehanson

www.theguardian.com/australia-ne... legislation that quarantines a state authority from any sort of liability associated with criminal wrongdoing is inherently unlawful #auspol

So Sussan Ley was indeed placed on a glass cliff. True to Liberal party form. Now they're back to a Morrison-era ex minister with a penchant for dodgy dealings and forging documents. Remember #watergate and the Clover Moore scandal? #news #auspol #libspill

After nearly 9 decades of tracking presidential approval ratings, Gallup has decided to end their poll measuring following threats from the orange felon after showing his historically low approval ratings. This is what cowardice and bending the knee to a tyrant looks like.

Minns: Police would "never, ever have disrupted a prayer service … unless it was in the middle of a riot" What riot? There was no riot!!! We have seen all the videos. #auspol www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

I really wish more people would read this. Australia's unemployment benefits are the lowest in the OECD. The government claims that this is to encourage people to get a job and lowers unemployment. Studies have shown that this is bullshit (quelle surprise) #auspol www.aph.gov.au/DocumentStor...

My totally unscientific take on the whole AI thing: It's shite, it's not getting any better, and the garbage it creates is being published and fed back into it, making it even worse. It's a doom loop of mediocrity, diluting itself until it is rendered utterly useless, taking the Internet with it.

Israel has so far violated the 11 October ceasefire deal in Gaza at least 1,520 times (as of Feb. 1, 2026).

Laura Tingle on the money as always. Israeli Finance Minister Smotrich: "We will continue to kill the idea of a Palestinian state".

Half the flag poles outside Australia’s Parliament House in Canberra have been changed to Israeli flags. Is this typical for days with visiting foreign leaders? Our gov truly has no shame in visibly expressing our support for a genocidal government. I mean, tracks with our own history. #AusPol

In case anyone missed this during the NSW protest clash, ia.acs.org.au/article/2026... #auspol

Did he happen to mention the bulldozing of Allied graves including ANZACs as he got a 21 gun salute?? #auspol

You boxed in Australians, broke some spines, arms, bones, all in the name of herzog the bomb signer and the people who believe he is their head of state. You need to step down, you do not govern for all. Treason. #auspol bsky.app/profile/marn...

Police investigating themselves. What a joke. #auspol

Sanctioning state violence against civilians who vote, to protect an official who’s country is committing a genocide. #Auspol

Crisis? What crisis? Govt's own docs prove that there was no "swarm" of FOI requests that required Australians' FOI rights to be restricted. No wonder govt delayed 150 days before releasing. @skyelark.bsky.social on @thepointau.bsky.social live blog: live.thepoint.com.au/2026/02/the-...

Israel isn't following the rules of international law. That's the whole problem here.

PM ‘devastated’ by Town Hall clash as MP says scenes ‘disturbed a lot of Australians’ What the absolute fuck did he expect?

Let’s stop voting for people who do the most terrible things to us. It really is up to us 🙌🙌 #auspol #nswpol

Andrew Brown: “I was there. Not watching from a distance. Not reconstructing events from police statements. I was on the steps of Sydney Town Hall, with organisers and MPs, looking out over a vast peaceful crowd and then watching the state choose violence.” #auspol

NSW Police did not instruct us to disperse, boxed us in, would not let us leave and then attacked the crowd - a peaceful crowd of many everyday young and old Australians. That’s what you are proud of @chrisminnsmp.bsky.social #auspol #IwasThere

Of course you have competing narratives when police and politicians are lying. #auspol

A reminder of when @albomp.bsky.social marched with us instead of rolling out the red carpet to inciters of genocide. #auspol

Never seen this kind of immature, juvenile & embarrassing behaviour by police in my life. WTAF are they doing here exactly? Pathetic!! #auspol

Referring to the protest last night in Sydney as ‘a rolling melee of violence’ as Deputy Commissioner Peter McKenna has - is a flat out lie. #auspol

We know that the only place that was not peaceful was Sydney, where Minn's zionist enabled troopers pepper sprayed, assaulted & punched peaceful protestors. Shame on @albomp.bsky.social & @chrisminnsmp.bsky.social Save Palestine 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸 🇭🇲🦘🤠 #auspol
