Living on the unceded lands of the Ngunnawal / Ngambri first nations peoples, now known as Canberra.

Please do not post requests for donations for families in Gaza in my timeline.

Love my politics and my footy (aka Carlton FC) and my music.

This is a desperate attempt by Pauline Hanson to remain in the public eye. Australia shouldn't buy into it

Yet another sad reminder that there is a two-tiered justice system in America: One for the rich. Another for everyone else.

If elites can be held accountable in other parts of the world, why can't they be held accountable in America?

More of this, please. The folks in this grassroots group are heroes.

Haven Watch lives by the promise, “No One Walks Alone.” Day or night, they show up. When people are released from ICE detention, volunteers meet them in the cold, disoriented, and exhausted.

Beautiful and devastating all at once.

Rep. Stephen Lynch: "It offers a great contrast. Look what the British government is doing in light of the evidence, and look what the US government is doing. Nothing. Our chief law enforcement officer Pam Bondi is defending and obstructing the investigation."

The American president is more insulated from accountability than a British royal.

Our political system provides the elite with immunity. It has to change.

“It is time to acknowledge what has become tragically obvious: the Trump administration is operating as a massive criminal enterprise.”

This absolutely captures it. Instead of "Trump Administration," we should say "Trump Syndicate."

Never in a million years did I ever fathom when I resurrected the Epstein story in 2018 that it would lead to first arrest of a British Royal in four centuries. Not since King Charles I was arrested in 1647.

Should your esteemed constabulary be inclined to cross the pond, we are in possession of a most splendid catalogue of miscreants (which we would be delighted to preserve in like confidentiality) for your good offices to apprehend.
In response to enquiries, the UK's Thames Valley Police have said: A man in his 60s from Norfolk has been arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office. The man remains in police custody and he will not be named at this time. Follow our live page: reut.rs/4s0TgSZ

Note: the British arrest the King's brother as part of the investigations into Epstein and the South Koreans send their former president to jail for life for trying to overthrow democracy after he attempted a coup over false election integrity charges.

Here? We take NO action against Trump

Quick.

Someone build a bridge over the Atlantic so the karma train can travel from Britain to America.

Thank you for your attention to this matter..

Global utility-scale battery capacity just grew 12× in four years. Costs down ~58%. Duration rising.

This isn’t incremental — it’s exponential. Storage is moving from grid support to grid backbone.

Solar changed generation. Batteries are rewriting architecture.

This is #Bettrification 🔋⚡
Big battery capacity jumps globally 12-fold in four years
The global capacity of utility-scale batteries has increased by more than 12 times between 2020 and 2024, according to the International Energy Agency Electricity 2026 report.

Proud day to be British. 🇬🇧

The former prince has been reduced to "a man in his sixties from Norfolk" - that is almost as delicious as seeing him face justice.

The worst thing about being arrested on your birthday is it rules out the possibility of getting a cake with a file in it for another 364 days.
