I have been an active member of the ALP since the early 70’s. The description of the ALP by a group calling themselves “Labor Israel Action Committee” and reported in the Murdoch press makes no sense to me or thousands of ALP members. It’s straight out of the Starmer play book!

Sydney is about to lose its last working harbour site — our entire maritime heritage.
If Rozelle Bay is rezoned for apartments, Sydney Heritage Fleet, inc. the 1874 tall ship James Craig & the world’s oldest operating steam tug, will be forced to shut down.

The ‘libertarian’ drivel touted by Liberal Party as its ‘values’ is same greedy ideology that emboldened uber wealthy in the USA to hijack & dismantle its democracy.
Don’t be fooled when a party advocates smaller government.

The ubiquitous Zionista. . .like bloody chicken-man. . .
Not only is the pro-regime change Venezuelan opposition allied with the Israeli Likud Party, but toppling the government in Caracas directly serves Israel’s regional agenda. This is why pro-Israeli commentators are adamant that the US military intervene.
