I second the motion.

And carried on the voices.
I have a suggestion for a compromise Australia could offer. Denmark keeps Greenland, and we give Richard Marles to the US.
So our AUKUS partners are essentially in a military stand off with each other. What a superb agreement we have .

The Albo government's antisemitism bill is a rushed hatchet job. Nobody has proper time to consider it carefully enough, and it will have all sorts of unintended consequences if passed. It is the worst kind of law-making: moral panic induced, pandering to powerful lobby groups' demands.

The world's richest man has long believed that laws don't apply to him.

Unfortunately, there is little evidence to the contrary.
If a website appeared overnight that gave hundreds of millions of users the opportunity to create CSAM you'd expect governments to shut it down quickly, so the question is why X gets a pass when it's done just that?
