It's just been confirmed that Monash University is dropping Woodside as a partner because they don't align with their sustainable values. This is an incredible win for @stopwoodsidemonash.bsky.social who have run a dedicated grass roots campaign for years.

Minns knows this is untrue. NSW Police do not need more powers, they need to stop providing police protection to Nazis. Same applies to Victoria Police.

I'll entertain technical arguments about the Summary Offences Act (NSW) when someone can explain how Police can kettle and move on small groups protesting climate issues but somehow this out front of state parliament renders them powerless. www.smh.com.au/national/nsw...
What we just witnessed was state-sanctioned Nazism

Huge news from the ACT! Laws closing the loopholes exposed by Bird v DP have passed today. This means institutions can no longer hide behind technicalities to avoid responsibility for child abuse. Survivors deserve justice. Every state and territory must follow the ACT's lead.
