In 1977, Qld premier Joh Bjelke-Petersen abolished the right to hold street protests. Tens of 1000s of people took to the streets, over 2,000 were arrested, & the anti-protest laws were rendered impossible to enforce.

@australianlabor.bsky.social is keen to emulate Joh. We need to do it again.

Another Leb bites the dust.
Creative Australia claims it’s definitely in favour of decorative art. Ambiguity and nuance are only ok up to a point as long as they don’t inspire emails to the board.

It's time to shut down greyhound racing, for good.
It's being banned all over the world, but in NSW they are propping it up!
Why are the politicians so weak-kneed on it?

Kiwis are brave enough to ban greyhound racing. Why aren’t we?
The NSW government tried to ban greyhound racing, but backed down. Now New Zealand have made the decision.

1️⃣ Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW) is the densest water mass in the world ocean due to its high salinity & cold temperatures. Filling the abyss, it accounts for up to 40% of oceanic volume. It plays a vital role in moving cold water toward the equator and regulating global climate.

Shameless! The hypocritical entrenchment of the ALP/LNP duopoly is clearly evident in @cpi_aus Antony Whealy’s analysis of Don Farrell’s 227 page political donations “reform”. 👇Australians can register a protest at the coming election by voting for a community-selected independent where possible.

I wish I was making this up, but the boss of the National Anti-Corruption Commission has given a speech where he admits that he acted with "apprehended bias" during the Robodebt non-investigation. As Bernard Keane and many others argue, Brereton has to resign www.crikey.com.au/2024/11/18/p...
Discredited Brereton should stop whingeing and resign from the NACC
The National Anti-Corruption Commission head devoted a major speech to explaining why he shouldn't resign. It perfectly demonstrated why he should.

“I look at the Andrew Tate message of macho culture that’s absolutely rife. Parents need to understand that someone is in the ears of our children and raising them and if it’s not us then who is it? You’ve got to be openly talking with them because if you’re not other people are.”
