#auspol Just saw an ad saying Medicare has expanded bulk billing for GP and the tag line was "Medicare's got the bill". Actually it is your tax money, that you already paid has got the bill. If i were in the #Greens or the Socialists I would stress that point.

If the Australian government was truly supportive of human rights, the rule of law and a fair go for all,
they wouldn't be doing massively costly and dangerous deals like #AUKUS with the fickle fascist Trump regime. #auspol
If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage.

The right-wing agenda isn’t about “life.”

It’s about control.

Excellent warning for @australianlabor.bsky.social & @albomp.bsky.social here from @timdunlop.bsky.social

If Labor doesn’t take serious steps to address the injustice that is driving the grievance push to One Nation, the anti-immigrant beat-up might win #auspol

We can't fall into right-wing populism’s lie that the most vulnerable in society are to blame for wealth inequality in our countries. We need to build movements that tell the truth: the story of wealth inequality is not a cultural one, but a class one.

For me the final straw with both Fed & NSW Govts was the police brutality of Feb 9 one week ago. The deliberate use of police to violently attack we the citizens by the Govt
And also
Police were deliberately violent
Not just under dreadful orders

While we have a financially comfortable, deeply institutionalised career party hack, who became PM based on seniority rather than talent, we will continue to endure application of yesterday’s solutions to today’s problems.

Yes. But I also want to know when the Labor party branches are going to rise up and do the right thing.

yes an @australianlabor.bsky.social leader crassly put his thumb on the scale here, and he not only fucked this up, he created further space for more labor leaders to fuck things up even harder

I really wish more people would read this.

Australia's unemployment benefits are the lowest in the OECD.

The government claims that this is to encourage people to get a job and lowers unemployment.

Studies have shown that this is bullshit (quelle surprise)

I agree. It’s not Marles, Wong, Chalmers or Plibersek. I have to remember that the Labor Party of old is no longer, so anyone leading them will not have those bygone Labor pillars guiding them. What we need is a new Party.

I've had enough.

I want the Labor Party out, of every level of government.

I don't want red carpet for war criminals. I don't want them de-platforming writers & artists.

I don't want to be terrorised by thug police in the city.

They've trashed Gough Whitlam's legacy.

Vote them out!
