No net zero – but what exactly is in the Liberal energy plan?
The policy unveiled at Sussan Ley’s press conference was much larger in scope than the Paris Agreement targets.

What’s wrong with Australian media?
Check online version of SMH today.
6 stories about the self indulgent Liberal Party.
A party that offers nothing. No ideas. No new policies. No intelligence.
Independents offered so much during the week in Parliament. Nothing from SMH.

Trend in 2025 first half data suggests we have reached tipping point in use of fossil fuels.
Solar & wind generation (5072TWh) overtakes coal (4986TWh).
Fossil fuel use fell in China & India & increased in US & Euro but by smaller amounts.
Carbon emissions from power decreased altho demand inc 2.6%.

Instead of one click. It is 3 clicks.

It used be much better than AccuWeather, US and Euro ones.

It is terrible.

Should protesters be allowed to confront a protest regardless of their merits which had been approved?
These anti immigration protesters are full of older people & if younger, men. They got flogged in last election.
Far right have not one policy other than this.
Let them whither.
No publicity.

Given a choice between protecting its citizens from harm, or protecting those who inflict the harm, @albomp.bsky.social chooses the latter every time.
👉Gambling
👉Environment
👉Climate
👉Aged Care

Gough would be spinning in his grave.
Every time the government accepts money from the gambling industry, it increases its debts to companies whose business models are based on preying on young and vulnerable people, and doing them harm.

The Albanese government does this again and again.

Why did it take Choice to discover the problem with sunscreens?

Where was the TGA?

What is the point of our regulatory bodies?
#TGA

More sunscreens have been recalled. Is your sunscreen safe to use this summer?
Named “sunscreengate2025” online, a total of 21 sunscreens have been pulled or paused from sale on Australian shelves since a scathing report by Choice.

ABC’s John Lyons has slammed Israel for wiping out an average of 28 children in Gaza “Every Day. Week in, week out, month in, month out”

There is no doubt #Bluesky is a breath of fresh air. Positive information is provided.
Twitter - I do not understand why progressives post a pic of a tweet from a right wing pundit & advise of the tweet’s misguided advice.
Why promote them at all?
Why do they give the author extra publicity?

Our High Court bases its decisions on the law.
Faith in our legal system is really all we have left. Major Political Parties, ASIO, AFP, NACC, ASIC, ACMA, EPA & most regulatory bodies are tainted by corruption or geopolitical/ political/commercial interference.

"The camera wasn't on them when they first approached & asked to play with renowned pianist Julien Cohen. It wasn't until they (or their parents) gave permission to be filmed that they started filming"

It WAS impromptu, after they got permission, then it was staged
