The US should not be allowed to make Australia complicit in nuclear war. 50 years ago Whitlam believed that and he was right.
It’s time to end AUKUS. Close Pine Gap.

The Australian is surprised with the answers today when their pollster asked people, “what do you want most, food, health and housing or nuclear submarines?”
Spoiler alert, it’s not nuclear submarines.

Cairo Takeaway has always been more than a restaurant—they’re a community hub that’s never been afraid to stand for Palestinian rights.

When the ADF’s culture of bullying and harassment results in thousands of unreported sexual assaults, it shouldn’t take a class action for survivors to receive justice.
ADF leadership and Minister Marles are missing in action and women and young recruits are paying the price.

Just 35 days to the 10 December social media ban deadline and Labor announces 2 more platforms being roped in - they’re making it up on the fly - 2.5 million young people are being disrespected and everyone’s privacy treated like a joke

When governments viciously prosecute people who tell the truth they scream the truth about themselves.
Israel’s pursuit of a senior IDF lawyer over the leaking of the horrific torture video of Palestinian prisoners tells that truth.

You know what's exempt from Labor's enviro laws?
AUKUS.

Today reporting in the Guardian highlights the "minimum of 30 Nitazene-related overdoses in Australia since 2021". We can’t pretend this is not happening, responses start with greater funding for harm reduction and access to pill testing.

Evidence of mass killings by RSF in El-Fasher, Sudan, are chilling. They must be a wake up call for the rest of the planet too. Countries must be pressured to stop sending weapons into their proxy war in Sudan. It starts with acknowledging the horror.

BREAKING: NACC Commissioner finally bows to public pressure and steps aside from all defence-related corruption referrals.

The Commissioner's report highlights proven approaches from Scotland, Netherlands & here in Australia. Community-based, therapeutic alternatives work. Locking up traumatised children doesn't. Enough with treating this as a political football, it's time to listen to the evidence
