Indo-Oz treaty. Pandering to Prabowo, ignoring unrest, West Papua - Michael West
Indonesians worry about undemocratic moves, failures of 'breakfast' policy, and faltering economy, Australia enters into unimportant treaty.

This is the correct question
There were cops present, watching & listening to the nazis as they broke laws around hate speech & inciting hate. Were they instructed not to intervene .... with bats, pepper spray & arrests .... like they do with climate change or anti genocide protesters??
What instructions were they given ??

Hard to believe, a lot of the time, that the Trump minions are just like Trump: dumb as a rock. And THEY are attempting to run the country, breaking laws, ignoring the constitution, driving up prices, and taking away health care. It is CONSTANTLY a five-alarm fire with these dopes.
We are really ruled by the dumbest people in existence.

Now we're talking. This is becoming more and more like the protests to the Vietnam War, where hundreds of thousands and millions would come out repeatedly to protest publicly—counting on Trump to DO BETTER at STUPID things to get us REALLY ANGRY.

I won’t miss the Liberal Party. It was always odd having a conservative party called a liberal party, especially for international observers. It’s for the best that they self-implode and pass into history.

Devolve Federal powers for environmental protection, assessment & enforcement to the States & Territories they say

One-stop shop, single-touch assessments will be great they say

👇NT government & NT EPA's track record👇
MASSIVE❗

"there has been methane leaking from the facility in huge quantities" (since 2006)

“What we have here is a cover-up at every conceivable scale, by ConocoPhillips, by Santos and by a range of regulators”

NTEPA, NT WorkSafe, Clean Energy Regulator, NOPSEMA, & CSIRO all knew about the leak
'Huge' leak from gas plant kept secret from public in 'national scandal'
Documents reveal the scale of carbon pollution leaking from a Darwin LNG tank was like adding 8,300 new cars to the road every year. It is about to be filled again.

Pondering tea-towels, at this late stage. A few people ask if I will ever do the Socialist Birdies again, which were very popular some years ago.

And below, my AI dog, might be the best suited visually for a tea-towel.

Everything else is so tied to issues of the moment, I'm not sure they hold up.

I'm shaking almost too hard to type. I entered SLC airport and heard screams and cries for help. I could see people gathered around, watching. I sped over to discover this woman face down on the floor, four grown men pushing her down, while she cried "HELP ME" and pled for her child.
