Whitlam’s legacy is one of possibility and hope. He showed us what a brave, grown up Australia could look like.
Whitlam showed us what a brave, grown up Australia could look like. And 50 years later, you have to wonder – is it even possible to make Australia brave again?

Very unimpressive NSW Police Commissioner interviewed on ABC 7.30 tonight. Either the man is an idiot who shouldn’t be holding down a responsible job, or he is complicit in the acts of the Nazis outside NSW Parliament. Either way he needs to go #NSWPol

The key MP who tried and failed to stop Nazi rally outside NSW parliament

The duopoly just joined forces in the Senate to vote down an #AUKUS inquiry. Never mind the political, technical & management risks associated with the program, or the $365B price tag - the two major parties are happy sleepwalking with your national security and money. #auspol
