I was impressed by this statement by Australia's Special Envoy to Combat Antisemitism, Jillian Segal, in response to the nazi rally at the NSW state parliament yesterday:

Wonder if there’ll be any hard questions asked about the NSW government or police command. I mean, they say they’re so concerned with ‘social cohesion’. LOL just joking, I know the media will keep fixating on youth crime in Melbourne.

No watermelons were in attendance, so I'm guessing there will be no comment from our "Special Envoy"

Can’t wait to hear what our “Special Envoy” has to say about this gathering of actual Nazis…or is she paid $400K by taxpayers just to criminalise watermelons?

Can’t wait for the next election so we can vote out the Morrison government #Auspol

The Canberra Press Gallery still out there writing diligently about these “Moderate MP’s” in the coalition like it’s 1993 🙄 #Auspol

Maybe someone in charge should have jailed a few bankers back in 2008 when they had the chance?

How good is Australian meritocracy 👍🏼👍🏼

The perfect place for it really

Forever in our hearts

Depends who you mean by "us". Australians generally? No. Press gallery and hangers-on like Karvelas? Definitely, helplessly, hopelessly

Yikes 😬

Petition to turn the RBA headquarters on Martin Place into public housing #Auspol

NSW cops would much rather be doing important work like strip searching teenage girls at music festivals

The proliferation of publicly funded private schools has wrecked Australian schooling - and is undermining our society. All due to the greed and endless lobbying of (mostly dying) churches

Barnaby is doing again what he does best - playing the lazy and compliant Canberra Press Gallery for chumps #Auspol

THREAD: A veil of secrecy and forgetfulness hangs over a taxpayer-funded mission to the United States earlier this year, involving Special Envoy Jillian Segal and one staffer. The purpose of the trip, which covered less than ten days, have never been made public.

It was Kyle, right?

Totally normal country 🤪

Hmm…that’s a lot of words to say “racism”

If Victoria is serious about being "The Education State", they confiscate the property, sack the administrators and assume control of the school under the Dept of Education & Training

Glorious and wholesome thread

1985 me loved this and I almost don't want to re-watch it in case it's not as gorgeous as I remember.

How are we meant to share an island with these people? We're just not the same kind of society.

Counterpoint: Get fucked

Shocked* to discover a massive overlap in the Victorian Parliamentary inquiry into dangerous religious cults and members of the state Liberal party

How good is Australian meritocracy 👍🏼👍🏼

QLD politics won’t work in VIC Not sure how many times the state Libs need to be shown this

“Change the government: change the country” they said 🤬 #Auspol

"You're displaying on your front page...a photo which looks like you've snatched the actual nose from my face. Then when you go into it, you see that it's just your thumb between two fingers of your fist...Can I ask you to explain this?" Victoria not sending their finest to the Senate. #Auspol

I hope Waleed reads this

The ageing fellas at the news desk have such a boner for a strong, young white man in politics they are going to will Hastie to the top of the pile whether we like it or not.

Your classic win-win situation

Imagine thinking: “You know what, I’ll just get Barnaby Joyce and Matt Canavan’s considered and even handed opinion on this environmental legislation we’re drafting…” #Auspol

What is wrong with the Age. Not sure this would even get a run in The Catholic Weekly.

The good news is that class solidarity is alive and well in Australia The bad news is that it only works in this way 🤬

Send in the administrators and prosecute the executives. Or do we only do that for trade unions? #Auspol

New Lattoufing just dropped

How good is privatisation?

Stepping back to spend more time with his war criminal defamation cases

Yet another example of why the right hates cyclists

This TV show appears to be cooked up in a laboratory with the specific aim of forcing me to *redacted* everyone on the top floor at Ultimo

Mainstream media is gunna sleepwalk us into christo-fascism with their breathless fluffing of these dudes.

Now you’re talking. Stick him in the office next to Gladys (aka the corruption wing)

There will never be any confidence in the NACC while Brereton has anything to do with it.

A distinguishing feature of our current political elites is that they don't even seem to know how corrupt they actually are. #Auspol #NACC #RoboDebt
