I am so glad that we have:
- only 6-weeks of campaigning, or thereabouts
- compulsory voting (& everything that makes that possible)
- the AEC

A devastating evisceration of a pretender.

Watch #4Corners & watch the destruction of a lazy, arrogant, race-baiting thug, who used deviousness to trample on the expectation of the public that the Prime Minister should be someone trustworthy, in possession of courage & a moral compass.

I wish to place on the record that we had multiple Coaltion shadow ministers who cheerfully agreed to interviews and then mysteriously pulled out. We really wanted to interview Peter Dutton. It’s a shame he wouldn’t speak to us. Grateful to Senator Andrew Bragg.

Put aside 30 mins today to listen to this.

It’s my interview with British-Australian doctor Mohammed Mustafa who recently returned from Gaza where he had volunteered at Al Ahli hospital.

You’ll want to listen to this one in quiet and private.

Trying to recall the last time I saw a political leader of any stripe tearfully lamenting the mass murder of people in a genocide happening before our eyes children, women, men. Politicians and their religion!! #auspol #election25 #hypocrites

‘Drugs and thugs’? Oh, good lord. 😂

If we were serious about protecting the vulnerable we would be focussed on protecting women and children in the home, where they are often least safe, through protective and preventative measures, services and programs. Not bullshit paedophile registers. #auspol

Peter Dutton said former HAD secretary Mike Pezzullo, who was sensationally sacked from the public service in 2023 for misconduct and later stripped of his Order of Australia honour, “should have a role to play in the future of this country” if the Coalition wins the election. #auspol 🤦

We need a list of all valued Australian institutions like CSIRO that the L-NP have targeted to destroy. The L-NP have been keen for some time now to bring CSIRO to its knees. This is an orchestrated hate campaign against researchers. Other organisations targeted like ATSIC gave gone under the radar.

Hopefully, #auspol , he won't the chance bc the polls are correct, and he even loses his seat.
Today Peter Dutton said the quiet bit out loud. He said he’d manage the budget like Tony Abbott did. That means tens of billions of dollars in cuts to health and education. #auspol #ausecon

This is your occasional reminder that the father of the husband of my mum's Aunty Ruby introduced the private member's bill that ultimately resulted in Australia having compulsory voting.

Being part of a union has helped frontline workers keep safety measures that were about to be significantly reduced. We won a massive battle by being together

Dutton wants to get rid of unions. We need to fight this. Dutton must NOT become PM, for everyone's sake

Yes … if we close our eyes to the mass murder in Gaza at the hands of the terrorist state of Israel …

Then don’t complain when others close their eyes to you, in your time of need.
