Whitlam knew he was up against the Establishment, the CIA, Garfield Barwick's stacked High Court, the Murdoch, Packer and Fairfax media so he went in boots n'all making radical change while he could, hoping some would survive.

Adani Bravus backdoor $600k Qld LNP donations prior to the Qld election 2024. It's a problem where Qld has real-time donations reporting but donors can send cash via the old federal system & it's outside state laws. Be upfront, use ECQ disclosures. #qldpol www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...
Adani donated $600,000 to Liberal National party before 2024 state election using federal ‘loophole’
The donations were disclosed through the Australian Electoral Commission on 2 February – but not through the state-level disclosure system

This is a table of ‘expert advisors’ of Malcolm Roberts ‘Galileo Movement‘ c.2011 to ‘use facts to axe the carbon dioxide tax’. All the members were closely associated with mostly 🇺🇸 #atlasnetwork ‘partner institutes’ or spinoff fronts populated by the same handful of paid climate science deniers

#auspol On PHONy ‘nationalists’ One Nation. In 2019 the were caught begging 💰from 🇺🇸oil giant & big Atlas funder Koch Ind. to ‘change the electoral system’ in 🇦🇺. Before he was a PHONy Senator Malcolm Roberts was running 🇺🇸#AtlasNetwork climate disinfo into 🇦🇺 under the front org ‘the Galileo Movement.‘
#AtlasNetwork figures took over the Liberal party & purged it of 'wets' under John Howard for foreign fossil investors & coal billionaires. Now the LNP are unelectable. Solar, wind & EVs are taking over, pushing energy prices down, so big fossil/Atlas is betting on racism & bigotry to seize power.
Cory Bernardi, new One Nation pick, went to America to train in climate denial with #AtlasNetwork’s Heartland Institute. This One Nation, like Farage’s Reform, is a tool of reactionary billionaires determined that no fact will stand between them & profit. #Auspol

Being a nemesis of something toxic isn't quite the insult they hoped it would be!

Please give my petition a boost, if you think the premise is reasonable? I believe think-tank funding to sway media and policy needs to be debated and made transparent:

The 50 wealthiest families in the UK own more than 34 million people combined.

That level of inequality is totally unsustainable.

A wealth tax isn’t radical - it’s inevitable. And the Green Party will keep making the case.

The Supreme Court told them they had to start again at the EPA. They applied and started the hearings. Then TTR pulled out as Luxon offered them the fast track. We fought them through the fast track process and today’s draft decision is to decline it.

The mining company TTR applied in 2013 to the EPA, were declined. Then the Key Govt told them to apply again to get the ‘right’ decision. They got EPA approval on a 5/4 decision with the chair casting a double vote in favour. We took it thru the courts and beat them in the Supreme Court.

My actual job description is activist and here’s what I tell people in despair all the time: do not underestimate how much harm you can prevent by being just a little bit annoying.
This is one reason I keep trying to remind people of the power that we have. That we have *always* had. Not because I’m in denial, but because I know history. I’m no sophisticated intellectual, but I do know we’re going to win even though the bad shit is really terrible right now.
Too many people on Bluesky think that relentless expressions of despair are a sign of intellectual sophistication.
