Taking care of business. We need to do this and move on.

You often hear from gas companies that "yeah but we pay state royalties!!!" Lol nope. WA drivers pay more in rego and licence fees than gas companies pay WA in royalties. Heck WA gamblers pay more tax. And that's incredible given WA does NOT have pokies in pubs and clubs

I've written to the PM offering to pass a 25% gas export tax in the next two weeks. Rich gas corps are making billions off this war, get gas for free, and pay almost no tax. That's money better spent helping people. No more free ride for gas corps while people go backwards.

Fine we nationalise the gas industry and Australia can actually benefit.

The Gas industry now saying a 25% export tax would "stop investment in new gas supply, leading to gas shortfalls" Bullshit. Utter bullshit. 83% of Australia's gas is exported. THERE IS NO SHORTAGE

What could go wrong?

"We all need to make sacrifices, that's what I told the help" said the RBA boss chaser.com.au/general-news...

Prime Minister Albanese is now blatantly lying. He’s accusing Iran of attacking countries like Qatar which, according to him, have no role in the war, completely avoiding the fact that these countries are used by the US as bases for their attacks on Iran. He must be aware of this. He’s lying.

There should be a law: when an elected official announces a change of party, there should immediately be a new election. And while I'm at it, we should have a mechanism to remove via a no confidence vote any elected official in whom the electorate has lost faith.

"If the Albanese government is serious about delivering fairness and opportunity, it must scrap the JRGP and reverse the fee hikes." @varshayajman.bsky.social And that's the problem: the Albanese govt has shown little sign of fixing #inequality. #auspol www.crikey.com.au/2026/03/16/s...

Huh if Canada had wind power and an adversary bombed us, rather than an explosion and smoke for hours and hours the wind mill would just fall over. And we want to build nuclear? Is the world stable enough for that? Stick with solar and wind. Safer for everyone.

Not since that foolish judge said a famous, successful man wouldn't risk sexually assaulting somebody has such unbelievable naiveté & legal nonsense been written. The pathetic NACC Robodebt finding says a public servant wouldn't have toadied to Scott Morrison. What WORLD do these people live in?!!

Renewable Energy is cheaper than oil. Renewable Energy is more securely available than oil.

50 years into the 24,000 years needed. Not optimal.

People need to watch what Lawrence Wilkerson has to say about Israel using a nuke on Iran. Watch how he admits during his time with Bush when he was in the military he himself committed war crimes. More people are saying nukes are coming. www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVvE...

Imagine living in a world where humans treated all humans like some humans treat other animal species, regardless of perceived differences. I want to live in that world. #SolidarityWithPalestine #SolidarityWithIran #SolidarityWithLebanon #DownWithIsrael #DownWithTheUSA

Antisemitism Envoy Jillian Segal-funded disinformation network “Advance” is now attacking one of the nation’s best and most respected journalists, over doing his job and pointing out the bleeding obvious regarding Israel and the US. This is where we are, Australia’s MAGA.

A second-rate lawyer casting aside the findings of a former Chief Justice, in the manner set out in this ‘NACC Robodebt Report’, is nothing short of un(fucking)believable! The corrupt NACC, must be challenged on this garbage! Thank you Rick Morton for your excellent work. 👏👏👏

Breaking news: A jury convicted people who protested outside an ICE facility in Texas of providing material support to terrorists, and other charges in a closely watched case in which the gov't argued the protesters were "Antifa". www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

The NACC report is astonishing for just how many non-sequiturs, excuses and naive assumptions can be packed into 455 pages. The deputy commissioner who authored it is not a judge, unlike Catherine Holmes. And it shows. www.crikey.com.au/2026/03/13/n...

Rick speaks for many who despair that any government minister or senior public servant can be held accountable for anything. Ever. But at least we have a handy hint on how to avoid allegations of corrupt conduct: 'my attention was elsewhere'. #robodebt #NACC #auspol

Spain’s Member of Europe Parliament Irene Montero: “Because no one stopped the genocide in Gaza, the United States and Israel are now targeting Venezuela and Iran. We must isolate the U.S. and Israel now, so they can no longer spread terror across the globe.”

What chills most here is the absolute, total silence from most global leaders, from the UN and the Amerikan Congress 𝐀𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐚 - 𝐀𝐥𝐛𝐚𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐞, 𝐖𝐨𝐧𝐠, 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐞𝐬, 𝐋𝐀𝐁𝐎𝐑 - 𝐢𝐧 𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐫 A silence that condones aggression, violence, threats and the total up-ending of international law and order WTF

The Albanese govt needs to be held to account for every instance of potential Australian involvement with illegal US military action, including war crimes. But they must face the bigger question: Why are giving up our national sovereignty to a dangerous out-of-control hegemon? #DitchAUKUS #auspol

NEW: US & Israeli have bombed a 4th school. Shahid Hamedane School in Tehran was hit today, following schools hit in Minab and Parand, Iran. And The National in Scotland seems to be the only newspaper in the Western world giving these war crimes appropriate coverage. Tomorrow’s front page👇

Dr Assal Rad— “Israel: 𝘜𝘳𝘨𝘦𝘴 when it’s bombing civilians. “Iran: 𝘛𝘩𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘯𝘴 when it’s being attacked.”

Dr Assal Rad— “They’re trying so hard to justify it and avoid saying, “U.S. STRIKES ELEMENTARY SCHOOL IN IRAN”.”

Jamie Raskin like many other members of Congress is visibly shaken after viewing the redacted Epstein files that are extremely disturbing because they show extremely young children in them. Raskin says that Donald J Trump’s name is all over them. Americans deserve the truth! 🤬

Concerning that majority of politicians comprising the Duopoly (most of them careerist apparatchiks) are so out of sync with views & expectations of society. Their servile grovelling to pariah genocidal Zionist Netanyahu regime & its complicit enabler, the #Trump regime, is sickening #auspol

Want to understand complicity? When you look at the news, look carefully at the impact on civilians, the refugees fleeing, the total destruction of neighbourhoods and infrastructure Albanese supports that 𝐖𝐄'𝐑𝐄 𝐂𝐎𝐌𝐏𝐋𝐈𝐂𝐈𝐓 𝐀𝐍𝐃 𝐂𝐎𝐌𝐏𝐋𝐈𝐂𝐈𝐓𝐘 𝐈𝐍𝐕𝐈𝐓𝐄𝐒 𝐑𝐄𝐓𝐀𝐋𝐈𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍 𝐎𝐍 𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐒𝐄 𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐌𝐒 Did you vote for that?

Hey @australia.theguardian.com - why the journalistic cop-out of "Shoebridge says..."? What's the evidence say? Every international law expert would agree with the Senator. Your story should be focused on government deceit and a complicit opposition. #auspol www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Spanish 🇪🇸 assembly member politician openly called out US and Israel for attack on Iranian kids "You can't be defending the rights of women by killing and celebrating deaths of 160 kids. I oppose Trump and Netanyahu" 🔥 Courage & Spine : 100%, Mad respect 🫡

Must watch. BBC News Analysis Editor @rosatkins.bsky.social does in two and half minutes what Australian mainstream media have not been able to manage in five days. Makes the Albanese govt's unquestioning support for the flaky fascists in the White House even more inexcusable. #auspol

What we have shaping up is a Religious War….because…you know, self-fulfilling prophecy.

Reminder that the US military budget is larger than the military spending of the next nine largest countries combined. Over half goes to private defense contractors. This is the military-industrial complex Eisenhower warned of — on steroids.

Amazing piece giving insight into the relationship between major fossil fuel companies and senior government officials. 130 direct, personal, text messages in 4 months between a Woodside rep and a DCCEEW deputy secretary. www.smh.com.au/environment/...

IOW, "Up yours, Adelaide University." 🙌🏻 #auspol #sapol #FrancescaAlbaneseShallNotBeSilenced

It's not even a secret, big fossil fuel corporations run government agenda - NOT voters Labor ditched YOU after you voted and went straight back to the REAL agenda - corporate greed, profit at our expense It's a global agenda designed to ignore climate threats and environment - it's about IDEOLOGY

Pay attention to the verbs. Pay attention to who gets named. Pay attention to who “says” and who “did.” That’s how perception is shaped - not with blatant lies, but with careful framing.

WHY IS THE DOJ REMOVING EPSTIEN FILES?!??

The US submarine also sailed away with no attempt to pick up survivors, leaving them to drown. Another unforgivable crime in international waters.

For those of you who need a SCIENTIFIC resource to make bigots heads implode, here you go.

BREAKING: New York City reports the lowest levels of shootings, shooting victims, and murders ever recorded for the first two months of a year. Major crime is down nearly 8% citywide, burglary hit a record low, and retail theft dropped 25%

“A university incapable of upholding free speech no longer merits to be called a university.” They cancel Francesca Albanese but I can imagine Adelaide Uni administrators drooling over the prospect of hosting Isaac Herzog, sad he didn't have more time. #auspol www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...
