Amazed to have made it into my eighth decade. Resolute cynic of politics and the economy. On the left and supporter of women and minorities. Dark sense of humour. Living on Kabi Kabi country. Anti Zionist

True. But think of the jobs for the boys (and girl) afterwards. There is a proud lineage of ministers ending up with very plum jobs after resigning their commissions. PM’s and Cabinet Ministers may have come from humble beginnings but have you ever seen a poor ex one?

Hey Tony Abbott, please take note of NSW Chief Justice Andrew Bell’s admonishment here. 👇 We know you’re on Rupert’s Fox board but your Trumpist attack on recent judicial decisions as “political” were below the belt. We must be able to trust our judges.

Ted’s response to Sarah Fergusson was a totally policy free area.
lotta rich people screaming about government spending. Easy solution, Ted. Stop giving billions of our dollars to expensive schools, franking boomers, and landlords. Nothing more inflationary than free money for the rich who produce nothing but speculation and bubbles.

Parliament’s back today.
Before heading to Capital Hill, we paused for the traditional ecumenical service.
A chance to reflect on the trust placed in us, and the responsibility that comes with it.

“Across Australia, far too many women are being killed by current or former partners. Less than 2 weeks ago, a man released on bail allegedly murdered 3 people at Lake Cargelligo…, including a pregnant woman with whom he was previously in a relationship…Australians are furious & they’ve had enough.”

Are these the same people who suggest that if other minorities cannot give up their allegiances to their home countries then they should leave Australia? If Israel is central to their identity then that is where they should live.
Leibler says Herzog's visit would model "it is possible to show solidarity with Jewish Australians by acknowledging the centrality of Israel to their identity"

Some of us older white liberals have done a lot of protesting in the past. We were there for Vietnam. We saw Kent State, we protested against bras and bombs. We fought for human rights and we’re not done yet. My father fought in World War II and I’m ready to fight the same people and ideologies.

Reading “Complicit” - by Peter Oborne which exposes the role played by the UK govt, Herzog and the media in the genocide of Palestinians. How does his visit promote peace, security and civil order in Australia? Why are we welcoming this man to Australia?

A think that a point that is consistently missed when decrying the lack of training that ICE receives is that they have been given exactly the training that the regime wants them to have.
Hochul: The whole crew has to go. It’s a joke, so they should clean house, kick their asses out of town, say “we’re starting over,” and stop militarizing our streets with people who have literally days or weeks of training
