Sydneysider, inner westie, parent to zoomers. I'd rather live in a functioning society than pay less tax.

92% of Australians support tighter gun laws. Once again the #LNP are on the right side of history.

YouGov public poll finds 92% support for tighter gun laws when suggested in the context of the Bondi terrorist attack. Perhaps it would be different if that context was not stated.

One of the truly bizarre features of the legacy media's response to the Bondi massacre is that it is actually telling the Australian people that they are anti-Semitic and need to have their rights wound back because they can't be trusted.

The get Albanese frenzy of the #LNP is really over reaching. It's especially laughable coming from a party that never took responsibility for anything during the nine years they were in power.

Funny how according to the Australian mainstream media a nation tragedy is a chance for conservative leaders to show leadership, but for a Labor leader it's a moment of shame for which they have to accept blame.

Response to mass shooting in US:

1. Thoughts and prayers.
2. Hope the shooter is a Muslim, trans or at least an immigrant.
3. Accuse "the left" of wanting to politicise a tragedy.
4. Wait for next mass shooting.

Repeat

Albanese’s social media ban was introduced smoothly this week. Here's why Labor governments should never get credit for anything they do.

Albanese’s social media ban is bold, but its success may take years
The Albanese government cops flak for not being reformist enough. Whatever the case in general, the ban goes against that narrative.

Hi. This is #PeterDutton Australia's most incompetent opposition leader. He tried to cruise into power by doing an imitation of #DonaldTrump & had no real policies. Despite this the Australian mainstream media, including the taxpayer funded #ABC campaigned on his behalf. Have a nice day.
