Govts around the world, no matter which side, are busy jumping over themselves to maintain the wealth and power of the people & things they actually represent. Only when we get money out of politics, will we see any real change towards making life easier for the masses. #Auspol #TaxTheUltraWealthy

Formal recognition of the state of Palestine overnight is a welcome step but we must also listen to the experts outlining what further steps Australia & other nations must take to prevent the ongoing genocide in Gaza. www.afr.com/politics/fed...

We're launching a campaign to end the genocide in Gaza. Sign our petition to call on the Australian government to sanction Israel NOW. Tomorrow we'll be in the Daily Telegraph and the Herald Sun so please: Snap a photo of yourself with the ad and tag us www.jewishcouncil.com.au/2025/09/peti...

No notes. Well if there’s one it’s only that I’m upset that as an Australian I can’t vote for Mamdani! Look out world, the time of gross wealth and income inequality is coming to an end. #TaxTheUltraRich #UBI #auspol

Palestinians warned of a genocide in 2023. Why weren’t we believed? | Ahmed Ibsais

"Feeling trapped and facing eviction, the mother-of-one turned to a charity and asked for £600. The money came through almost instantly... Since receiving her grant, Laura Burns' life has been transformed – she now has a new home, a job and is about to get married." UBI will do so much for so many.

With news of further bombings of hospitals in Gaza overnight, Jewish Council executive officer @sarahschwartz.bsky.social explains that this is deliberate, this is a campaign of targeted killings of journalists and we need to take action and end the two-way arms trade with Israel now.

#UBI is the ONLY social stability program that recognizes your INHERANT value as a human being. UBI is the foundation that says you- as a person living in a wealthy, technologically advanced country that produces more than enough for all- have the basic right to life free from poverty.

"People kind of think of centrism as evidence-based policy. 'We'll be sensible and we'll follow the evidence.’ "I hate to break it to you, evidence is often quite radical." Catch Richard Denniss on his tour for his new Vantage Point essay Dead Centre! @richarddenniss.bsky.social #auspol

Decades of centrist timidity have created a chasm of wealth and income inequality. Building an economy that works for ALL Australians will require big, sweeping changes. Let’s see what @australianlabor.bsky.social & @jimchalmers.bsky.social plan to do with their big, sweeping mandate. #auspol

Recognition of Palestine MUST be combined with actions to stop the genocide. With the deliberate assassination overnight of Al-Jazeera journalists and plans to permanently occupy Gaza, the Australian government must take meaningful action and suspend military contracts with Israel!

With all that's going on in the world, I've been reluctant to share more of my 'work' life here, for fear it appears trivial in comparison. At the same time, it's never felt more important to look for and find some light. With that, here's some 'behind the scenes' of our ELEVU start up journey.

The Jewish Council was proud to join the hundreds of thousands of Australians marching on Sunday to demand action from our political leadership. We demand an end to the genocide, today!

“We are all Palestinians” shout marchers on Sydney Harbour Bridge. Don’t know if I’ve ever felt prouder to be a Sydneysider. #FreePalestine #MarchForHumanity 🇵🇸🇦🇺 www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

"Turning deliberate starvation into a legitimate and acceptable weapon among Israelis...is the most demonic stage so far in the war Israel has launched on the Gaza Strip. ...it is another means for attaining the objective: #EthnicCleansing." -Gideon Levy johnmenadue.com/post/2025/07...

If the decades of widening income & wealth inequality weren’t already enough of a reason for Universal Basic Income, this most certainly is 👇 Governments around the world need to wake up to this reality and change course NOW. #UBI #AI #auspol futurism.com/sam-altman-o...

“I find it so unbelievably evil. It shocks my conscience and my soul..” @anakasparian.bsky.social on IDF killing desperate & starving civilians, including children trying to get food. Ana speaks for everyone with a heart and two eyes right now. Nothing, I repeat, nothing justifies this Genocide.

If we create a basic income floor below which no one can fall, and set it high enough and alongside other universal needs like healthcare and education, then everyone will be more capable of becoming the best versions of themselves, which in turn means a society that is the best version of itself.

“..tinkering at the edges while avoiding any serious confrontation with wealth concentration.” Treasury advice This = millions of desperate, struggling ppl looking for love in all the wrong places aka growing fascism everywhere. Tax the ultra wealthy. Introduce Universal Basic Income. #auspol #UBI

Tax the super rich and introduce Universal Basic Income. Taking millions of people out of survival mode. The world would be a much happier, more dignified, creative, curious & expansive place to live. The exciting thing is - it’s not only possible, I believe it’s inevitable. #UBI #TaxTheSuperRich

My latest books have arrived! Watching the direction the world’s been heading, I’ve never felt more compelled to understand how we can create & advocate for a fairer, more inclusive & dignified world. There’s many aspects to how, but Universal Basic Income is undoubtedly a core foundation. #UBI

Today is a national day of action on Palestine. Help push our government to stand against this genocide. Make your voices heard.

Today is National Sorry Day. I want to say sorry for the Stolen Generations. Sorry for the record numbers of First Nations children in out of home care today. We need to understand this is not the past, the injustices and trauma continue. We must Listen. Learn. Act #SorryDay

This beautiful child, exhausted and traumatised beyond belief is having to beg the world to end this war, on camera. Beg that her life, and so many others, be considered worthy of saving. What do you say in response? @albomp.bsky.social @senatorwong.bsky.social @australianlabor.bsky.social #auspol

Incredibly powerful investigation in Dutch newspaper NRC: Seven of the world’s leading genocide scholars — including renowned Holocaust experts — describe Israel’s actions in Gaza as genocidal. And according to them, nearly all of their peers agree.

Amen

Wealth inequality is also at the core of the rise in fascism. Far right political parties around the world know the game is rigged against the middle & working class, so best distract them by making out immigrants & trans people are causing their pain. Until we tax the rich/est, nothing changes.

The Jewish Council calls on the re-elected Albanese government to immediately sanction Israel and comply with our obligations under the Genocide Convention and international law. This includes cutting all economic, military and diplomatic ties with Israel. Media release here: tinyurl.com/5ydypam7

"For decades progressive voters have been told that Australians can’t have the nice things people in other developed countries take for granted because the Liberals and the Murdoch media would never accept such a progressive challenge... no need to be scared anymore." - @richarddenniss.bsky.social

We stand with survivors in urging real accountability from the Catholic Church. We, too, hope the next pope ends the decades of cover-up and inaction — but hope alone isn’t enough. It’s time for genuine reform and justice.

"Traditional Owners welcome people not to the construct of Australia created at Federation but to ancient customary estates," writes Marcia Langton. "Dutton and Price know so little about our culture and history that they misunderstand this basic premise."

This is mass murder and most Western governments are complicit

This is brilliant. Dutton may be desperate to distance himself from his disastrous Nuclear Policy, but Australians haven't forgotten. #auspol

Any politician who says they are committed to fixing the 'cost of living crisis'. but does nothing about the entrenched #poverty of 3.3 million Australians, is having a lend of us. Poverty is a policy choice. #inequality #RaiseTheRate #qanda #ausvotes

"Economic inequality breeds resentment and a desire to get even...Yet hardly anyone seems to recognise it...except the far right, who see it all too well." This is why we need a Labor minority govt w the Greens & Independents holding the balance of power. #auspol www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Exactly this. If we want an inclusive society, we need to design, cultivate & build one. That includes making changes not only to our physical environment but also to our culture. Media certainly has a role to play, as do every single one of us. #Inclusion #Accessibility #Disability #Ageing
