Making another appeal for progressive minds who would nominate fin next year's Victorian state elections.
I intend to stand as an independent, but it is really hard to get a message out alone.
I'm testing out whether there is a chance of a network of independents.
Rough manifesto would be:

Football ("soccer" to some) fans who plan to visit the US for the World Cup next year better start preparing themselves mentally and physically for American hospitality. Sports fans wanting to attend the Olympics in LA in 2028 too.

So are we going to continue being typically apathetic, or are we going to flood the streets when the meatheads run one of their white men rallies? The rest of us, especially women, have a lot to lose if these idiots end up in power in Australia, you only have to see Trump;s UN speech to see that

When will you realise that Trump is not interested in you? When will you face up to the fact that America is not Australia's friend any more (if it ever was).
Just stop crawling after this corrupt ass, it's diminishing all Australians.
And dump AUKUS.

@albomp.bsky.social DON'T DO THIS, Albo.
He's not your friend, he's not your ally, he's not Australia's friend or ally.
That's OUR money you're using for this, and it will only enrich him and his family.
Just dump this corrupt "treaty".

The corrupt Emperor of America, Caligula Trump, is warring with his people.
In the UK, the King of Scotland, Idi Starmer, is warring with his people.
In Australia, Albo Macchiavelli, gas-lighter extraordinaire and US & UK toady, arses around pretending to be of the people.
Locke time is close

Why, in Australia, lobby for guns? Protection? Ultimately, if that's true, we need protection from other people with guns, so we want guns to protect ourselves from guns?
This has to be arms manufacturers.
We need to stop Australia from becoming like that gun nation with whom we share no values.

Problem is that when we blame capitalism, it takes attention from the main bastards.
This is about greedy corporations, especially those in the fossil fuel industry, and their corporate henchmen putting their own profits ahead of communal good.
But they have us by the proverbials, don't they?

Kris Kristofferson, may have been a troubled person but he was also a Rennaissance man: writer, actor, Oxford Blue boxer and rugby player, helicopter pilot, musician, song-writer, philosopher, teacher, soldier, who knew the seedy side of life. Perhaps he expressed what is going to today well

Albo is such a disappointment.
So okay, maybe he made a mistake in reducing HECS debts. Perhaps he'll find another way to make young people pay. God forbid he tries to get anything out of fossil fuel or mining industries or multinational IT corporations.

Yes, it's all about the cost of living. Not at all about the climate crisis, the growing corporate feudalism, the influence of evil old men dominating the world order, the descent into idiocracy, the dominance of a few billionaires. It's the cost of living
