The medical treatment for septic uterus, eptopic pregancies and a miscarriage that the body cannot release is abortion
Without the medical procedure of an abortion for these medical emergencies, women die
This Far Right anti-abortion shtick has nothing to do with human rights
It’s misogyny, 101

Can we also keep in mind that often the "antisemitism" claimed is NOT REAL eg graffiti that says, "FREE PALESTINE" or "END THE GAZA GENOCIDE" is NOT antisemitic.
HOWEVER, the RACISM and ISLAMOPHOBIA that non-white and Muslim Australians experience IS ACTUALLY REAL. #auspol

There's a lot of fearmongering about a potential modest change to super tax concessions.
As Greg explains, the changes would only marginally affect the very wealthiest; those with over $3m in super, less than 1% of all Australians.
