It’s been very underreported but the ABC has just gutted its arts and culture team. It will go down from 12 national arts, culture and entertainment reporters to 3. One of those will focused on writing PR for TV shows. It’s vandalism.

Looks like the ABC may have taken this interview off its website. Perhaps we can all re-post this version.
APAN President Nasser Mashni says he welcomes today’s strong language by the PM on Israel but says it’s come too late, says Israel is “not a democracy, it’s a rogue apartheid genocidal state, headed up by a war criminal. It’s time for Australia to do more than just talk…” #Abc

Great speech by Stella winner Michelle de Kretser discussing the censorship around Gaza. Deeply strange its contents were only reported by The Age. Neither ABC nor Guardian write ups of the event mention her powerful comments at all. stella.org.au/2025/05/mich...

So, for those killed and those whose voices are silenced: what more evidence do you need?
Will you act now – decisively – to prevent genocide in Gaza and to ensure respect for international humanitarian law?
This Council must prevail. Demand this ends.

“Israel's military has completed trials of an advanced weapon made by a Canberra-based defence supplier.”
Australian complicity in this genocide is abhorrent and so is the Labor government’s continued lying about it. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-04....

Supporting Israel’s genocide is the compulsory admission ticket to social and political power in the West: my speech at today's Free Palestine demonstration in Sydney.
Congratulations to the large numbers who came out despite the terrible weather.

It's not a demolition site it's a mass grave. It's not a demolition site it's a crime scene. It's not a demolition site its a homeland. It's not a demolition site it's Palestine. It's not a demolition site it's a genocide.
Trump, with Netanyahu sitting next to him, says "Gaza maybe is a demolition site right now ... you can't live in Gaza right now. I think we need another location."
