The irony is that inflation will start cooking again because of US Tariffs.... then Australia will get Temu Trump government because of an interest rate rise.

I feel like wikipedia is the only institution that was actually ready for this.
Wikipedia is rolling out anonymity features piloted in countries with authoritarian governments in the US & is making a change to not show editor IP addresses in response to a global "increase in threats" from Elon Musk, Heritage Foundation, and governments

Wikipedia Prepares for 'Increase in Threats' to US Editors From Musk and His Allies
The Wikimedia Foundation says it will likely roll out features previously used to protect editors in authoritarian countries more widely.

Any day now I'm expecting the Australian Prime Minister or Foreign Minister to tell Canada to back off, mate, because WE are the 51st state of the USA, thanks very much! #AusPol

👇🎯 I don’t know how anyone looks at what has happened in the last two weeks now and has any expectation of free and fair elections in 2028.
If you don’t stand up for rule of law, nothing else matters. It’s the mechanism of accountability in democracies. If Trump can do anything he wants with shutting down agencies, it’s naive to imagine he will follow the rules in elections and beyond. Preserving rule of law is existential to democracy.

"Bumblebee population increases 116 times over in 'remarkable' Scotland rewilding project."

Read that again: **116** times.

Why are we STILL having to argue the case for rewilding??

Lidia Thorpe is right, racism deserves to be treated with utter contempt no matter where it raises its ugly head.
Predictable that Labor joins the Liberal’s to silence an indigenous woman in Senate.

Urghhhh
Two full days and, I think around 15 or more prominent articles in most of Australia's major media outlets repeating the claims @chrisbowenmp.bsky.social shared directly to media outlets, the data and full projections report are now available.

The Taylor/Morrison era tactics never stopped.
