The ever increasing use of ‘independent’ to describe private schools does my head in. I’ll call them independent when they stop depending on the public purse.

Australia is selling its gas to Japan so cheaply, that Japan is selling it again to other countries!

But Big Gas wants us to think we have a shortage problem, not an export problem.

Mary Kostakidis v Zionist Federation
Internationally she became known as a credible source of news and commentary on Israel's invasion of Gaza that was missing in the mainstream media.

She also became a target for the Zionist Federation of Australia

Elon Musk said DOGE made a mistake by cutting USAID’s Ebola prevention but it had been “restored.”

That’s not true, current and former officials told me and @johnphudson.bsky.social.

“There have been no efforts to ‘turn on’” Ebola prevention, said Nidhi Bouri, who oversaw team until January.
Musk claims DOGE ‘restored’ Ebola prevention effort. Officials disagree.
USAID’s initiatives to fight Ebola and other diseases have been gutted, current and former agency officials said.

Peter Dutton plans to butcher the public service, DOGE style. The last time the LNP tried that they just shoveled cash to the big 4 consulting firms so we got shocking waste, corrupted governance, rampant secrecy & hopeless service. #TaxLawLeak #auspol

Did you know one of the major donors $$ to Creative Australia (aka Australia Council For The Arts) is the Besen Family Foundation?

The Besen Foundation strongly supports Zionism & has been known to withdraw major arts funding if board decisions do not suit their world view.

Isn't that fascinating?

One more time for the dummies ..

What if the LNP wins?

“How many social and affordable homes will be built under the HAFF agenda if the LNP wins the next election?”

The answer is …. NONE

One of Dutton’s extremely few announced actual policies is to scrap the HAFF

And it was not a “stunt gone wrong”. It was a deeply political provocation designed to generate lies that could be reported as facts. Posing as journalism. There absolutely needs to be an investigation of this rogue organisation at heart of our politics & they need to be held to account.
Fat chance.
The Daily Telegraph took part in a stunt in which a provocateur tried and failed to *stir up* antisemitism at an Egyptian restaurant in order to have it caught on camera.

How's this for "social cohesion"? I wonder if any politicians will bother to comment

The chair of the ABC has today in court implied that supporting Israel is neutral and natural and journalism but having sympathy for Palestine makes you an activist that needs to be fired - maybe even catch Covid to save face. That's where we're at.

He's been a multi-millionaire property developer for 35 years, almost all of his life

For a brief 8½ in his 20s he was a suburban cop, a boring standard nobody cop

He's traded & lived off that ever since

Let's stop playing his game, call him what he is - a multi-millionaire property developer
