For some reason ABC didn’t report this comment from detainee Violet Coco in any of the coverage I saw. Fairly powerful, I’d have thought.

Three in four Australians support a total ban on gambling ads phased in over three years, and four in five support banning gambling ads on social media and online! For more info ⤵️

It’s Easter and the US President chose to share this, an unhinged and expletive ridden rant threatening war crimes against the Iranian people. Australians want no part in this and they expect our government to clearly oppose it and organise to prevent it.

Bravo to whoever made this happen!

Australia, Big Gas is taking the piss. That’s why we made this TV ad – to make sure people know. We need a 25% gas export tax so Australia gets a fair share. ✍️Add your name and call on the government to act. Sign the petition: https://theaus.in/4d6K2QS

Me for @thepointau.bsky.social guess what - claims a 25% tax on gas exports will raise inflation are total bull thepoint.com.au/factchecks/2...

Today marks 1,000 days since the Murphy Report was handed to the govt. The timeline of the govt's action since then is simple: none. No response. No implementation. No urgency. Meanwhile, gambling harm continues to devastate individuals, families and communities. #BanGamblingAdvertising

New polling by The Australia Institute shows most Australians are in favour of a flat 25 per cent tax on gas exports. Read the full piece on The Point: https://theaus.in/4bY5B58

Just checking in on how Santos and Woodside are doing... Yeah I think we can tax gas exports... www.theguardian.com/business/gro...

You'll often hear how the gas industry is vital for Australia because it's so big. But really the only thing big about it is its profits.

Oh but we’re definitely not in the war. Collective defence and all that

Australia's summer of climate whiplash One extreme event after another. Catastrophic fires, flash flooding and back to extreme heat. Climate pollution overpowered La Nina cool conditions. Insurance costs have risen 51% in 5yrs. #Albo has no plan #Auspol www.climatecouncil.org.au/resources/br...

New research from The Australia Institute has found that the majority of people who own a firearm with the stated reason of sports or recreation do not actually participate in either activity. Read more: https://theaus.in/4lwKPN7

Well this is frightening!! 😳🙃

Albanese has now admitted that Australians were onboard the US nuclear sub that sank an Iranian vessel and left the crew to drown, in a violation of international law. This was always an inevitability of AUKUS. End AUKUS now.

"We are led by fools and sycophants ... it’s only day 5 of the war but surely the epic stupidity of Australia so cravenly backing the US Israeli invasion of Iran is evident by now." #auspol #trump #Iran michaelwest.com.au/australia-an...

Fabulous interview with the wonderful @lucindacowden.bsky.social where she talks #Neighbours, the importance of the arts and why she hates reality TV: m.soundcloud.com/radiocarrum/...

The meeting will be focused on antisemitism online and on social media. Of course if they cover racism against First Nations people or Islamophobia then it would be in direct contradiction with what Jillian Segal represents given she helps fund Advance through her family trust.

Don't use the services of Kennards Hire or Kennards Self Storage. Sam Kennard is a major donor to Advance, so that is where your money will be going. #auspol

Anyone who is paying attention to the reality of AUKUS (not Labor and Richard Marles) knows we’ll never get any subs and the US will just squeeze as much money out of us as they can before officially admitting this. It’s time to find some backbone and get out of AUKUS!

I don't understand how any Government can see the increasing impacts of extreme weather events on our fellow Australians - our environment, our wildlfe - and still continue to support the fossil fuel industry. We've been betrayed #auspol

Peter Prick Head Theil is an evil ass hole. He is as evil as his company name Palentir. He is also allegedly named on the Epstein files for hurting little boys.

Countries including UK, Norway, NZ and South Africa called on Australia to implement an Australian Human Rights Act last night. They heard 150+ Australian orgs calling for human rights at the heart of our laws so everyone can enjoy their rights. Support a Human Rights Act: humanrightsact.org.au

This is really good. Every Australian should know about the influences underpinning our politics - which goes a long way to explain the mess we’re in #auspol
