Whether it's illegal to say it or not (?), Israel is quite clearly committing genocide in Palestine. The Australian government (but not the Australian people) is quite clearly supporting it. And our farce of a democracy is being further eroded so people don't speak this truth.

COVID-19 is still a major issue in aged care. I guess old, frail people dying is just one of those things in the government's view of the world. There have been no improvements to reduce transmission since the pandemic started in residential care facilities. Now we'll be totally in the dark.

If you're still calling for a shark cull, you're demonstrating your ignorance about shark behaviour & our ability to meaningfully change the probability of exceedingly rare events.
Killing sharks, incl. listed threatened species, would need EPBC approval. A test for Murray Watt.

Shark culls have been happening in QLD & NSW, for decades, through shark nets & drumlines. They're diabolical for sharks & other wildlife, including whales, dolphins, dugongs & sea turtles.

As Bill Gates recommends a “strategic pivot” away from climate change, the Gates Foundation made record investments in fossil fuel companies in 2024, despite its 2019 pledge to divest.

We did patrols around Harcourt the day after the fire came through & hosed down old trees along the roadsides that were still burning. Terrible to see the loss. And that was before they did 'clean up' for safety. The cumulative loss of old trees is hard to bear.

In Albo's new antisemitism bill, the definition of "hate crime", which underpins the new regime to proscribe "hate groups" like the Nazis, specifically excludes "advocating genocide". That is, advocating genocide is treated as not being a racist hate crime. Now, why would that be?
