Reminder:
The NSW Govt plans to "prohibit slogans that incite hatred". The criteria targets speech that criticises Israel or is pro-Palestine. It also refers to "measures" used in the UK! #auspol #nswpol #FreeSpeech Submissions close: Monday 12Jan2026.

@bsky.app why have you started age verification for Australia I didn't think you were on the list of sites that were needing to do so?

A question for fearless journos out there to put to Australia's political leaders. Why do we have > $300 billion to attempt to buy submarines but not enough $ to pay more fire fighters & support staff & to buy more urgently needed firefighting equipment, so we have sufficient resources when needed?!

Scores of fires, many that are huge, spanning the state of Victoria. Thank you to all the firefighters, you are heroes!

No thanks to politicians that continue to ignore scientists & our evidence-based & urgent warnings about climate change, placing the lives of humans & others species at risk.

Hey Albo exactly what values does Australia share with Trump’s America … Trump has announced that he plans to withdraw the US from 66 UN and international organisations, including major forums for cooperation on climate change, peace and democracy.

If the #USA seeks to take #Greenland by military force, would Australia be required under #AUKUS to support them? Did we provide logistical or any other support when they attacked #Venezuela and kidnapped Maduro? Australia seems to be acting like a cowed vassal state of a tyrannical empire. #auspol

Rules Based Order & Rule of Law
Post both world wars the international community established institutions to ensure global peace, justice & stability.
They were constantly undermined & rendered ineffectual by self serving powers.
Even the pretext has now been abandoned.
Mere anarchy prevails.

@albomp.bsky.social I know we don’t have an ambassador from the US just now but close the damned embassy. Kick the US military out. It’s now a rogue state committing acts of war without their own Congress having any say. #USAOUT

AUS schoolchildren should be taught both the US & Israeli national anthems. School flagpoles should be increased in number to fly the Australian, US & Israeli flags. If we're going to be a vassal state to a US dictatorship and a genocidal Israel, it's important we embrace our subservience. #auspol

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.

You don't appease bullies, criminals, rapists, murderers, war criminals, or terrorists. Appeasement is complicity.

Mainstream journos that think the US has gone too far with Venezuela. You're right. But where the fuck were you, and why the fuck were you quiet, when Trump/Biden flattened Gaza? Why can you talk about this abuse of decency and international law, but not Palestine? We see you.

Locking ourselves into an alliance with Mango Mussolini is looking more dangerous, untenable & ridiculous every minute.

AUKUS is a complete & utter millstone around our necks.

Bleeding us dry of taxpayer funds & putting us at ever greater risk.

Quit AUKUS now.
Review all US alliances.

AUKUS is likely the dumbest defence decision Australia has ever made.

$500 billion or more for second hand subs that may never arrive…
While many other areas of our society are suffering from lack of investment…
CSIRO
FNs
aged
education birth-death
women
NDIS
climate crises
housing
ABC
Renewables…
Rockingham in Perth's south is fast becoming a crucial part of the AUKUS nuclear submarine deal, with promises of a big boost in jobs and infrastructure — but it's also leaving residents afraid for their lives and lifestyle.

Australia Institute research shows that nurses pay more tax than gas and oil companies.

Meanwhile, multinational gas companies get 56% of our gas for free and then export it overseas.
