The greens are a mixture of well-meaning people who don’t know where to start politically & emphatically get it wrong, & pseudo-leftist, self-appointed morality police who think bullying is activism. The moment of liberation for all leftwing people is realising not to give a shit about them. #auspol
Proud to be Labor. There has been some awful behavior towards my family from greens supporters because we openly support labor in my inner West neighborhood. I am shocked at how much like radicalized cult members many of the greens supporters are.

If you want to know why Trump has betrayed Ukraine, one suspects it’s partly the usual reason: his ego wants to destroy everything that reminds him that he is a weak coward.

Nope. But I absolutely believe the only political party in Australia with the depth of talent to negotiate the chaotic new reality of Trump is the Labor Party and hamstringing them with a cross bench of greens and randos could be very dangerous. #auspol

Nonsense. It was pap, drivel, focus-tested, push-button crap. Not a policy in it. At bottom, Dutton is hollow and empty. There’s nothing there.

Last election Mundine stood for a seat on the NSW south coast!

He had some bullshit connection to that seat….which he lost…..what connection does he have to Bradfield?

Absolutely FUCK ALL except it’s a seat in parliament and he’s been desperate to ride the taxpayers gravy train for years!

So it’s all those ships causing whale strikes that if we go renewable will be reduced by over 33% because that’s how much shipping carts oil and another vast amount carries coal.
Wait, wot? You mean to say there is evidence that offshore wind turbines are not the leading cause of killing the whales or even a threat to whales? Whoever would have thunk it? 🐳

New research shows that the top threat to whales around the globe has changed. But it wouldn't take much to reduce the risk, researchers say.
