Too often the political/bureaucratic/business elite nominate each other for top awards as part of their rations. If Scott Morrison gets an AC, it will completely undermine our honours system. He is a singularly most unworthy candidate. #BackScratch #auspol

Last year, Japan resold at least $11bn worth of Australian gas.

Japan onsells more Australian gas than eastern Australia uses, and more than our forecast domestic gas shortages.

We don’t need new gas projects. We just need to use our own gas better.

Remember: Outside polling booths on election day for the 2019 Federal election, the Liberal Party deployed these deceitful corflutes in AEC purple in electorates with large Chinese populations. The AEC deemed they were purposefully misleading but there were no consequences. 😠 #auspol #AusVotes25

More pork barreling & deception from Amelia Hamer!

She's promising to fund the restoration of the Michael Tuck Stand.

But this is another fully funded Council project that is already underway.

Here's the proof 👇

I can’t believe Peter Dutton now asking “Who do you trust?”After all the back flips, cuts & crazy nuclear policy, does he really want to know the answer?

I know who I can't trust: Peter Dutton & his LNP bunch of crazies.

Can't trust a person who blames someone else for everything.

That's not what grown-ups do.

Given how much more fucked up the world is about to get, the question isn't are you better off than you were three years ago - it's what do you think the next three years are going to be like and who do you want making the decisions? And that's not just about a PM, but the whole parliament.

It's just extraordinary to me that the LNP are talking like every single issue we face started in May 22.

LNP have played THE MOST significant role in creating the issues we face - and if elected on May 3 - will only make it so much worse #auspol #npc

The LNP don't like their own words repeated back to them, which is why they're infuriated by this ad.

Which is also why you should share it.

In case you’ve forgotten how we used to treat this sort of thing…

There would be bipartisan calls for investigations

Impeachment would be a foregone conclusion

Several people would’ve resigned or been fired by end of day

Donald Trump cannot cancel the 2026 elections. But he can make it very difficult for them to be free and fair. His executive order is aimed at doing just that.

The Coalition say nuclear is cheap. Energy experts say it’s expensive.

The Coalition say nuclear is growing around the world. The facts show that it’s in decline.

The Coalition say nuclear will lower pollution. Independent analysis shows it will release a 2 billion tonne carbon bomb of emissions.
