Many of us are still on twitter/x - and we’re also here.

To keep this 👇 going - please consider using BlueSky as your key platform now. #auspol
I can’t tell you how different it is on X now after so many people have left. I have always followed mostly right-wing accounts because I cover them, and they are running out of people to pick fights with. So they’re just mostly fighting with each other.

Spot on. Every opposition spokesperson on every issue: “albanese is weak, weak, weak, cannot make decisions” the Trump dynamic alignment is blatant - you may not like Dutton, you may even hate him, but punters will hold their nose and vote for strength. I hear no counter from the ALP. Watch out !
Listening to David Coleman at a doorstop on ABC - and it’s very clear the messaging they’re going to be using ie…

Albanese is weak, indecisive & disappointing - while Dutton is strong, will make the needed decisions etc #auspol

The reason we want an Independent for Mornington Peninsula.
Climate change is happening. We want strong leaders who will take action on fossil fuels and keep the world safer for generations to come

Bluesky is already quickly replacing Twitter as a place where I am finding stories I want to talk about on my show, or finding video clips that are worth reacting to, etc.

What's dodgy about the political donations reforms?
Anne Twomey gives the low down on the bill that labour and liberal are forcing through.
Also, jump onto YouTube and look up Punters Politics, subscribe to a fair dinkum true blue Aussie doing his bit for politics

Just my 2 cents. But my goal is to ignore the trolls. Give them zero attention. Block them if they annoy me.

I think the worst thing we can do on this site is re-create the ad hominem/ personal attacks that occur across comments on Twitter/insta/tiktok/ etc

Hi ABC News 24.

We don’t care about Musk’s rocket.

We don’t need rolling coverage.

Thanks

Excellent piece by Angela Priestley of Womens Agenda - the power of social media and the courage of ordinary people.

“As things currently stand, it wasn’t prime ministers that brought Jones to where he is now. It was people – often collectively – with far less power and far more to lose”
#auspol
PMs feared him, but far less powerful people could ultimately define Alan Jones' legacy
Prime ministers feared and kowtowed to him. So what does that say about the courage it's taken alleged victims to come forward?
