Albo just got booed at the memorial for the victims of the Bondi Beach shooting.
I immediately felt sick.
I’m also angry that this tragedy has been so politicised.
Albo is not to blame. The Labor government is not to blame.
Hateful extremists ARE to blame.
We need unity. Not more hate.

My problem with Barnaby Joyce is that he’s a textbook stereotype of a red-faced white conservative hypocrite; expensive private school education, pretends to be yokel; mouths religious belief, lives with no piety; condemns “promiscuity” in young women, but has affairs. A disloyal narcissist & drunk.

Obama: "The weird videos of a US president with a crown on his head flying a fighter jet & dumping poop on American citizens - that's not even worth booing about. Because all of that is a distraction from the fact that your situation, your life has not gotten better. They do it so you won't notice"

"ACTU president Michele O’Neil said the PRRT had become a scam on the Australian people, arguing large companies were making a “killing” out of LNG and the public were seeing almost nothing in return."
A flat 25 per cent tax on all LNG exports would raise $17 billion a year.

‘For every $100 of gas exported, Australia gets 43 cents’: Unions open new tax battle
The federal government this week overhauled its superannuation tax reforms. Now the union movement says it should radically overhaul taxes on gas exports.

@albomp.bsky.social’s #FOI Amendment Bill cannot be voted on this year. A week is a long time in politics - three months is an eternity. We must remain vigilant to fend off Albanese’s disgraceful attack on open and transparent Government. #auspol
A deserved defeat for Albanese on freedom of information
Thanks to Opposition leader Sussan Ley, the government’s disgraceful attempt to squeeze the life out of the Freedom of Information Act is as dead as a herring.

I think @davidshoebridge.bsky.social is right. I can't see how a failing democracy's considerable armed forces on our soil - particularly when the President of that benighted country uses his military forces against his own people, can do other than threaten Australia's security #auspol #aukus
More and more Australians are seeing through the spin, and working out that Australia being a US base for B52 bombers, nuclear submarines, marines and spy hubs is making us less safe. Much less safe.

The new ICE song by Jesse Welles nails it.
ICE isn’t recruiting heroes, it’s recruiting the bitter, the rejected, the ones desperate for a badge to cover their failures.
