Australia certainly needs a full independent inquiry. Those who secretly created this diaster need to be held to account.
BREAKING: The Victorian Labor conference has just voted for an independent parliamentary inquiry into AUKUS, to suspend all AUKUS funding to the UK and US and then withdraw from the pact altogether. That’s a win for peace. Will Albanese and Wong listen?

If the Zionist Federation of Australia had any good conscience it would drop its prosecution of journalist Mary Kostakidis for her comments about Gaza. Designed, it appears, to bully and intimidate other journalists into silence, it's not working. @marykostakidis.bsky.social #auspol

Antony Loewenstein nails it. “The idea of a Jewish state which gives superior rights to Jews above anybody else is by definition, discriminatory and by definition racist,” theshot.net.au/uncategorize...
Your rights are being eroded so Israel can commit genocide without criticism - The Shot
