Albanese is neither astute nor visionary.
He is more beige mediocrity tinged with self interest.

An astute social democratic leader would seize this once in a lifetime opportunity to prosecute a visionary transformation agenda, complete with structural reforms, that shakes off shackles of neoliberalism & aligns us more along the lines of Scandinavian nations

No, it's really not. It is a system that favours the already wealthy, no matter what age they are. Plenty of really poor boomers and gen X round my way.

NSW Labor MP Anthony D’Adam deserves to be commended. His letter to Home Affairs Minister Tony Burke is worth reading. He asks the minister to investigate potential foreign interference by Israel in Australia after Israel published a dossier conflating criticism of Israel with antisemitism. #auspol

When a government seems ‘captured’ and flips on a range of issues of immense importance to you, you walk. You walk towards an independent or a party that will at the very least represent your values and hold the government to account. You work alongside them, because the stakes are so high. 🌏🔥🕊️

Israel should be expelled from the UN.

This week, Israeli forces stormed and destroyed the UNRWA headquarters in East Jerusalem after forcing UN staff out at gunpoint.

This is a sustained attack on the primary international agency keeping Palestinian refugees alive.

Isn't the UAE funding and arming the Rapid Support Forces who are committing genocide in Sudan?

Isn't Saudi Arabia still committing a silent (ie unreported) genocide in Yemen?

It is unbelievable that Australian taxpayers are paying to send two former Defence Ministers, now weapons industry lobbyists, to the UAE and Saudi Arabia to spruik their clients and arms sales into the region. Unbelievable except it’s business as usual for Labor and the Coalition

don't know how widespread these things are at the moment but in the lead up xmas and still going I'm seeing heaps of charity ads on FTA TV. If there was an equitable tax system & some decent policy around public education & health these problems wouldn't exist.

If Bondi Beach belongs to anyone, it belongs to First Nations, @chrisminnsmp.bsky.social.

AUKUS: a continuing expensive delusion
Australia is pouring billions into AUKUS submarines without clear delivery capacity from the UK or the US. The result could be a costly strategic and fiscal mistake – with little to show for it.

An important reminder that effective engagement in nature recovery depends on empowering local people, e.g. farmers, to lead the environmental programmes in question.

Restoring the ability of local communities to act as guardians of nature is a promising approach to both ecological and social recovery.
