Are you tired of people who expect too much? Who want you to do something really good for a change?

4 Corners. Andrew Hastie Liberal minister, said that the Voice referendum was "a big win for us". Really? If you won, how come nothing changed? The gap is not closing? Lobbyists are still in parliament? Nobody won, Australia lost, Aboriginal people lost, the truth lost, unity lost, and humanity lost

Never forget how many of those advising the ALP are patting themselves on the back for ensuring the govt did nothing in this.
“Not an issue/we made sure it hurt the Greens”
Those doing so are truly putrid. At best excusing murder, at worst cheering for it.

picked it, I definitely did not pick Dutton and Joyce leveraging an Anzac Day ceremony to align themselves and their parties with actual nazis. No bar too low I guess.
I have said it and am gonna keep saying it. The coalition voted for holding a referendum and then campaigned against the question to generate granular seat-by-seat data - all publicly funded - for their targeted racism strategy in this federal election campaign.

It’s actually sick that a tiny group of foul white supremacists have managed to propel Welcome to Country onto the election agenda because so much of the media immediately legitimised their grievance. They’ll be rubbing their hands in absolute GLEE at the way media took the bait.

90% of WA’s gas is exported. Big Gas takes 73% the gas for free.
To add insult to injury, these gas exporters have never paid resources tax.

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.
