Shame on Albanese and the LNP 😡
#BREAKING Australia to deport all the people released by the High Court to Nauru. Immoral, inhumane, Trumpian and highly likely to be unconstitutional.

I explain in 1 minute what’s shockingly just been announced by the Albanese Government.

Despicable "journalism" by Murdoch's Newscorp Daily Telegraph. Sending an 'undercover Jew' to an Egyptian Cafe in Sydney to try and provoke an altercation and film it.
😡
The Daily Telegraph prepared for a story featuring an ‘undercover Jewish man’ using covert recording eyewear. CCTV footage and internal files seen by Crikey show it didn’t go as planned.

I’ve been writing about climate change for years. I know my graphs won’t change minds, but facts matter 2025 has not started well, and you should be bloody angry. We are less than five months from the federal election and both major parties’ climate…

Confronting yet compulsive viewing...
Great video from JT ( #SecondThought ) on how cost-benefit analyses are used as a tool to make sure nothing that isn't profitable for the already wealthy (like here action on climate change) will ever happen.

Some very welcome good news. Dutton has avoided consequences for his overt racism for too long.

This Labor government has betrayed us. New coal mines, a refusal to negotiate in good faith on crucial housing and environment policies and producing a weak, irrelevant anti-corruption body.
Now, leaving our Pacific neighbours in the lurch. Disgraceful.
