This is the correct question
There were cops present, watching & listening to the nazis as they broke laws around hate speech & inciting hate. Were they instructed not to intervene .... with bats, pepper spray & arrests .... like they do with climate change or anti genocide protesters??
What instructions were they given ??

Tonight on Spin Cycle, @rachelwithers.bsky.social and I are thrilled to be chatting to @wakeinfright.bsky.social about the omnishables roiling the BBC.

Plus, the media's role in the dismissal, Coalition climate nonsense and a, let's say, inconsistent approaches to law and order. From 7 on RRR!

Get behind this Australia
This is happening on SUNDAY! Unfortunately, after all his hard work, Captain Quoll won't be walking (see update below) but his team will be. They're aiming to raise $35K & are just under $25K atm.

Let's give them a big push! Go you good Quolls! 🙌

Just a note to journalists - there is no such thing as a moderate Liberal MP. I told you about this back in 2019. (And even that was a late note)

It’s time to stop lionising the myth of the moderate Liberal; it’s just a nonsensical label

Captain Quoll is at it again! He and his team will be out on Sunday to raise $35k to banish dastardly diseases....and they still have $10k to go.

Throw in a dollar or two if you can! @kudelka.bsky.social deserves it.

Yes. I'm way more angry that Labor pretends to care about climate science and then does absolutely nothing about it. At least the coalition are overtly honest about their denialism.

The Liberal Party’s decision to abandon Australia’s net-zero by 2050 target is reckless and a massive step backwards.

Two things to bear in mind given the words you’ll hear over and over today in Australia: (a) the louder “the national interest” is invoked, the more likely it masks a narrow political interest, and (b) functionally, delay amounts to denial. #NetZero

Climate is not an issue you have a 'view' on Mr Miller - it's a fact based issue where the peer reviewed science is accepted and followed - or not #auspol

Badly worded poll published by the SMH, which implies that it’s more costly overall/less affordable to reach net zero. Verging on a push poll.

Despite this, a majority of Australians still support net zero.
