Wouldn’t it be good if there was some kind of environment legislation that could stop this sort of thing from happening
New: "Minister Gavin Pearce has confirmed the closure of the commercial rock lobster fishery near diseased salmon pens south of D’Entrecasteaux Channel, citing concerns that antibiotic residues could prompt Japan and China to ban imports of Tasmania’s $90-million southern rock lobster industry."

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

AUKUS.

Apparently the US alliance controls even this. The damage cause by a nuclear waste dump can literally be written off if the Environment Minister wants to.

Every time I don’t think Auspol can get any stupider, I get proven wrong. A national conversation over whether the PM should apologise for wearing a t-shirt featuring a very popular band that’s been around for decades because of its name, is stupid, stupid, even for us

This is brilliant writing by Amy Remeikis (one of Australia's best journalists, in my opinion). I tried to pick out a quote to lead into this piece - but every word is excellent - so you'll just have to read it all for yourself. She nails it.

Independent Senator David Pocock and Labor's Penny Wong clashed in Senate estimates yesterday over whether the Parliamentary Sports Club could be considered a lobby group, as reported in Crikey last week. The club is registered as such, and lists Responsible Wagering Australia as one of its clients.

The fact Wong thinks she can just snark her way out of this is a sign of how normalised the relationships between politicians and lobbyists have become.

Like, of course the PM shouldn't be president of a registered lobby group that sells corporate members access to politicians? No shit??

Great to see Usman Khawaja and @davidpocock.bsky.social teaming up to push for a gambling advertising ban.

They shouldn’t have to.

The Albanese govt’s refusal to implement Peta Murphy’s review is scandalous.

And shows they are in the pocket of the gambling industry. #4Corners #LosingStreak

You don't understand! The ALP government has to support Israeli genocide, US war crimes, the destruction of the rule of law, and the north west gas shelf, because it only has a 51 seat lead on the Coalition. Something something Murdoch. They're really progressive, I swear.

No Congressional approval. No public debate. No plan for what comes next. Behind these men is a massive military machine bent on profit, feeding their decisions & responsible for the last 3 failed US-led wars - which Australia joined. Wars which cost so many citizens their lives, homes, communities.

Melbourne/Naarm yet again taking to the streets to protest our holocaust-enabling PM @albomp.bsky.social, his depraved foreign minister Penny Wong, and their complicity with Israeli and American atrocity. Free all of us from Zionist warmongers. Free Palestine.

It’s been very underreported but the ABC has just gutted its arts and culture team. It will go down from 12 national arts, culture and entertainment reporters to 3. One of those will focused on writing PR for TV shows. It’s vandalism.

I doubt the ABC is fulfilling even 25% of its charter these days: no doco, education, natural history, or proper archives units, few/no opportunities for original comedy shows, especially written or hosted by women, a disapparated arts coverage, no science on TV, no international service ...

The ongoing loss of life, starvation and human suffering in Gaza is unconscionable and I do not accept that Australia's influence is limited. I have written to the Prime Minister asking him to use the authority of his office in a stand against the actions of Israel. #gaza #auspol
