Isn't Australia.........required to submit this, as part of being a signatory to the Paris Climate Agreement?
Peter Dutton will abandon action on climate change.

He will give a green light to big polluters.

He will take a sledgehammer to Australia’s climate progress.

Australia’s failure to take strong actions for the protection of the Palestinian people is to be contrasted with the courage of the many Israelis, and Jews throughout the world, who are struggling in a hostile environment for justice for Palestinians. #MAPW #auspol

No one should have any illusions about Trump’s trade ‘diplomacy’. It’s America First enforced by crude, strong arm tactics. Australia must respond with strength, putting critical minerals supplies, #AUKUS and JDF Pine Gap on the negotiating table. #auspol

Gotta love Laura Tingle who wrote a complaint to Ita Buttrose about how badly the matter was being handled and why someone from the ABC had leaked to The Australian that Ita had likely approved.

Peter Dutton doesn't care about you unless it suits his agenda.

We saw it the way he silenced his Indigenous allies after the Voice referendum.

We saw it again today the way he tried to gag Mark Dreyfus, Australia's highest ranking Jewish MP.

Dutton is sick. He doesn't deserve to be PM. #auspol

Senator urges PM ‘don’t suck up’ to Trump – as it happened 🇦🇺

I agree!

He’s running an extortion racket

He wants all world leaders to bow down and pay up

Funny how last week Australia had to hand over massive down payment on the submarines

This week he hits us with tariffs 😡

For those idiots out there who have been misled into believing that the cost of living crisis is Labor induced, think again.....it's a global thing, ffs. Australia is doing very well compared to other countries atm. Electing Dutton would be the biggest mistake we will ever make. imo

NATO should disregard #Trump's reliance on them acting within the rules. Whilst he disregards all other organisations established to maintain world order. #Auspol
Tonight's Four Corners (ABC Australia) brings home the utter barbarity of Russia's war in Ukraine, with videos of the execution of prisoners of war, and the horrors of modern drone warfare. Just heart breaking. And Trump will block NATO from providing security for Ukraine. Slava Ukraine.

In 2019, Labor promised to establish a Whistleblower Protection Authority, but it remains the missing piece in Australia’s election landscape. Once again, it’s up to the crossbench to have the back of whistleblowers.

Let’s attract the best and brightest, and fund R&D and start ups. This is a massive opportunity for Australia.
