LNP’s disarray on climate is going to give a lot of cover to Labor’s sub standard performance #auspol

My neighbour, who I can only assume reads the Herald Sun, installed a security system which blasts a warning to passersby that they “ARE NOW UNDER SURVEILLANCE.” We live on an arterial road with two adjacent tram lines and a train station. Can you guess what we get to hear all night? #Melbourne

A former chair of the Law Institute of Victoria’s criminal law section, Mel Walker, described the proposal as “extraordinary, bad policy and counterintuitive”.

Jacinta Allan and Victorian Labor signing treaty into law in the same breath that they try to implement sentencing reform for vulnerable and traumatised children, which will be devastating for First Nations kids, is disgusting. Tough on crime only appeases mouth breathers #SpringStreet #Auspol

John Laws was admittedly before my time but in most respects looks like he was a gaping dickhole #Auspol

Labor thinks they sound really good when saying “the GreENs PolITIcAl PaRtY” in #QuestionTime whilst they spend their second term continuing to do three-fifths of fuck all on housing, the environment and equality. I just despise Labor and their beige incrementalism so much #Auspol

She's ending world hunger? She's solving climate change? She's funding cancer research? JK, she's a fucking billionaire. #EatTheRich

Matt Canavan looks like he should be one of those fun uncles you see once or twice a year who drinks a couple beers and is really funny. Instead the bloke opens his mouth to either remind everyone he has an economics degree or spout pathological bullshit about climate change denial #auspol

Watching Jacinta Nampijinpa Price blow up her own career and take out the Liberals with the shrapnel. It’s carnage you can’t look away from #Auspol

If I say that I think Linda Reynolds is a grub, should I mark it as satire? #Auspol

nothing says late-stage capitalism like taylor swift getting a diamond the size of a mortgage while her fans are crowdfunding to buy groceries

Lot of media organisations and journalists glad they now can move on from having to talk about Israel bombing another hospital.

BREAKING: Israel begins carpet bombing Australian civilians after Netanyahu reveals that Prime Minister Albanese was actually Hamas all along and that it would be anti-Semitic to even consider trying to fault that logic #AusPol

they're against (((israel))) which i think is a uh important distinction from being against israel

I cannot stress this enough. Fuck Israel and fuck the USA. #Iran #Nuclear

right now bombing Iran is incredibly unpopular. i suspect the admin is betting this will inspire retaliatory terrorist attacks against Americans that will help to manufacture consent for further escalations.

I’m beyond sick and tired of Netanyahu and his cronies. Actually, of Israel in general. So is the rest of the world.

It’s astounding to me that the National Party continues to deny climate science and debate ditching net zero whilst real farmers and rural people suffer from a climate change-fuelled flood in the NSW mid-north coast. It’s reprehensible - how is that serving the interests of regional folk? #Auspol

I guess a PSL stupid sonofabitch decided to get us all lynched, huh? This Israeli Embassy shooting has just given the fascists an excuse to treat pro-Palestine people and socialists as domestic terrorists. I just knew an idiot was going to do something stupid and get us all lynched

Moira Deeming is an asshole and deserved to be TERF-ed from the party, Adeline #qanda

What are the chances of Dutton being turfed as leader of the Coalition if he loses the election? Genuinely interested in everyone’s thoughts #Auspol #Election2025

@peterkhalilmp.bsky.social this is in your seat by the way. Thanks for overseeing policies which prevent young people from buying houses in our neighbourhood and make renters miserable. I lose a huge chunk of my pay check to make this guy rich and it’s beyond unfair. Where’s our “fair go?” #Auspol

My landlord again entered our rental house with no notice and turned the water off to repair one of his adjacent properties. What do we do? Take him to VCAT, lose and suffer his vindictive wrath and lose our home? Labor presides over this broken system. Don’t vote pro-landlord major parties! #AusPol

My wife, who has Multiple Sclerosis, currently has 6 monthly Ocrevus infusions which cost us $40 per dose. Without the PBS in place, it would cost us $40,000. Peter Dutton is an existential risk. #leadersdebate25

Sorry, but I’d choose China over the US any day #leadersdebate2025

Remember, kids: both of these blokes are property investors. Both of them trash the environment. Neither will fix anything. If you’re a young person, vote for your local independent/minor party leftie (or Greens if need be) and shake up this bullshit status quo a little #leadersdebate2025 #auspol

My god I hate both of them so much. The entire system of “governance” in this country is a joke #leadersdebate25 #auspol

Richard Denniss is a bloody legend #qanda #auspol

All Australian political parties currently in power are filled with landlords. I don’t trust any of them with helping renters or first home buyers #AusPol

James Paterson, Jane Hume, Angus Taylor & Michaelia Cash are like the four horsemen or the apocalypse who don’t know how to ride horses. Four big reasons the Libs can’t govern competently #AusPol #AusPol2025 #FederalElection

Can journalists please fricking stop calling them "reciprocal" tariffs. They are not reciprocal at all.

Long live Vivian Jenna Wilson, a deadset fucking legend 💖

I’d like to point out that it’s shocking that as a social worker with forensic experience, it’s radio hacks Fifi, Fev and Nick and perennial fuckwit Bec Judd who have swayed policy in an area they have absolutely no knowledge of whilst the experts have been ignored. Disgusting. #Auspol #SpringStreet

YOU CANNOT JUST LOCK PEOPLE UP AND EXPECT THE COMMUNITY TO BE SAFE. THESE BAIL LAWS WILL BE EXPENSIVE, HARMFUL TO MARGINALISED PEOPLE AND INEFFECTIVE. Fuck you for capitulating to the tabloids Vic Labor, you deserve to be kicked to the curb. #SpringStreet #Auspol

Maynard effectively ends Angus Brayshaw’s career through carelessness and gets off scot-free, and meanwhile Jackson Archer gets a ban even though Luke Cleary doesn’t hold him accountable. The #AFL tribunal at work, everyone!

Snapchat has a bagpipe filter for St Patrick’s day?

Tonight we’re all from Tigerland #AFL #AFLTigersBlues

Am I seriously fucking hearing that Andrew Tate is free?

Linda Reynolds is a nasty piece of work. Katy Gallagher is 100% in the right. Don’t let the door hit you on the way out Reynolds, you won’t be missed #Auspol

I’ve very rarely browsed Facebook for years now, but I’ve noticed over the past month that when I do that it’s full of reactionary posts from right wing and libertarian pages which I’ve never followed. They’re pervasive as all fuck. Has anyone else noticed this?

Still devo I had to be born over two decades after Gough Whitlam was dismissed. Has Aus Labor even come close to being inspiring since then? #Auspol

As someone who grew up in the beautiful town of Albury and loved the region dearly, I really hope “Suss” Sussan Ley gets turfed this year. They booted the Coalition in NE Victoria in favour of an awesome community based independent, and it’s time we did it across the river too #Auspol #Farrer

Absolutely revolting

Ita Buttrose emailed Andrew Bolt and Sophie Ellsworth directly to let them know Latouff had been sacked, because they complained to the ombudsman about "journalists using taxpayer funded jobs to promote their ideologies", whilst claiming her time was very busy, hilarious #LatouffvABC

Labor actually seems to be on point today. Like they’re not just letting the Coalition run laps around them. Finally. #QuestionTime #Auspol

It’s insane to me that in a dying world with increasingly extreme inequality and the accumulation of power amongst an elite few, that a proclamation that there are “only two genders” can be considered the most important thing a leader can do. We’re all doomed.

Astounding that after aiding and enabling Israel to slaughter civilians for 15 months, Biden and Blinken are suddenly able to help oversee a ceasefire deal and claim it as a victory. Why not 15 months ago? Why leave the rest of the work to Trump etc who are even less sympathetic to Palestinians?

I would be so thrilled to see Sammy Konstas catch Kohli out #AUSvIND
