Bit late sharing, but the fact someone can win an election this way is both blood boiling and chilling.

Daniel volunteers were shouted at, spat on and stalked. They were told by police to travel in groups. I couldn't get it all in here.

And Wilson shows no remorse

While the 2025 federal election inquiry has shown there was a clear rise in hostility at election booths around the country, Tim Wilson's electorate of Goldstein seems to have reached another level.

Extra Special Envoy, Jillian Segal, asked at Estimates to provide complete list of organisations who she met with.

Responds: request is too broad to be meaningfully answered - only provides sectors she's met with.

🚨Antisemitism Envoy has misled the Senate over her response to last month's neo-Nazi rally.

Segal says she denounced it to the media that "did contact my office".

That is false.

52yo Sean Sharman sent a death threat to 30yo Federal MP Fatima Payman. The judge: Payman was targeted bc of her gender, race & religion, it was offensive, hateful & racist. No jail time. Media: he'd been drinking. Now imagine if a Muslim man had sent a death threat to an MP. #auspol #justice

Well we don't have dodge bullets at school.
Or ICE thugs coming to kidnap us if we don't have white skin.
Or soldiers marching down the streets, dropping tear gas bombs from helicopters, for literally no reason at all.

So it's not quite as hard as growing up in the USA.

Huge contract blowouts, added to the cost of the latest secret MOU with Nauru raises serious questions of gross mismanagement.

There's no point in our governments setting 'ambitious' emissions reduction targets if they won't actually take reducing emissions seriously.

Expanding fossil fuels and relying on bogus carbon credits is NOT taking it seriously.

Alex Jones level conspiracism from a man who owns one of the largest platforms in the world. If the far-right wants to understand how the Kirk assassination happened, all they need to do is look inward at the culture of paranoia, hatred, and radicalization they’ve spent years stoking.
