I love knowing my money is going to something worthwhile. Without shows like WUTBJ our media will have no conscience or courage.

It's a clear sign that many people don't understand what is happening in the US when they believe that there are going to be free and fair elections next year. There may not even be any elections at all. #MAGA #trump

The power of despots and heartless oligarchs and regimes bent on destruction of their neighbours seems overwhelming and a cause for despair. What else we can do except trumpet the causes of the compassionate and spread the voices of the just, and put our hope in a groundswell of equality. #empathy

The world needs miracles. Not big ones, but daily efforts to practice empathy and see ourselves in others. Not to denigrate, but to understand. Join the MEGA campaign and Make Empathy Great Again #humanitymatters #empathy #MEGA

Gloom and doom scrolling today reached a tipping point, and I reminded myself that we are so lucky here in #auspol with no gestapos in the street or lunatics at the helm. That doesn't mean we shouldn't strive against our own leadership failings, just that we should count our blessings periodically.

Gough utters a universal truth here but we need to bet on Morality. The self-interests with corporate money will only drag the nation down. We only rise through integrity and transparency and unless our politics expresses this moral backbone, greed will trump virtue. Vote #independents #auspol

The rifts have blown up into chasms in the #Coalition as we see just how far right they have turned. Gough's words seem like a prophecy. Fortunately we don't have to worry about them for a few years, except how to keep them in the wilderness, as the 50s retreat further into history. #auspol

We want leaders with vision and courage, #albo - not tinkerers. You could learn many lessons from the #independents Always speak the truth and advocate for the most needy. Go after the corporate parasites bleeding the country and make everyone pay their share. Give us a genuine fair go. #auspol

Albo has not started off great, with his #Woodside decision. He would have to do something extraordinary to win back our trust. I would not lay any kind of bet on his success. #auspol

I've not seen stats for Oz, but you only have to look at primary votes in the election to see our waning trust in politics: ALP 34.62%, Coalition 32.05 and 'Other' got the rest. Indies got 7.36 with a swing slightly larger than the ALP. A sure sign our democratic model is changing. #auspol
