The worst political abuses, of women, young people, those with less, are so often first trialled in immigration systems. This othering is deadly, and as we saw with Morrison, inevitably worked its way into his broader politics. Refugee justice is everyone’s business.

In one study, 36 of 37 dead Powerful Owls tested positive for rat poison. Which isn't to say they necessarily died from it, but rat poison is throughout native wildlife. 2nd generation poisons must be banned. There are alternatives.

Tragic to see the flooding across NSW. As these disasters get more common and more severe, we should make fossil fuel exporters pay a climate disaster levy.
So that those causing the damage pay for the clean-up, not ordinary Australians.

Time for a climate damage compensation levy on the companies who are exporting fossil fuels from Australia.
As VIC debates how to fund emergency services such as the CFA & SES, a levy like this would mean we would never have to ask a farmer to pay a contribution for emergency services ever again.

The Murujuga rock art is one of Australia's most priceless heritage sites.
And it's being slowly destroyed.
If Environment Minister Murray Watt approves the 50 year extension to the North West Shelf, it will be a death sentence for Murujuga.

This. Labor needs to be bolder, do better in their next term. They were lucky to be up against a dreadful opposition but they need to step up: in higher education, in climate action, on transparency, and fixing our below poverty-level ‘safety’ net. Let’s hold their feet to the fire and demand better
I'm glad we have a Labor government over an LNP one. I'm glad that they do put forward helpful policies... at times.
But they're a centrist party that is still afraid of losing, and is still afraid of enacting genuine, positive change for the nation.
