At the Bondi vigil, Pauline and Barnaby turned tragedy into opportunism. It is inexcusable | Julianne Schultz
Hanson has done more than any other politician to foster division in Australia. Her words to mourners after the horrific attack ring hollow

Laura Tingle says you have to look at Netanyahu’s reaction with a grain of salt after he blamed Albanese for the Bondi attack. Says he’s the only leader trying to link it with Australia’s support for a Palestinian state while still can’t explain how Oct7 occurred on his watch💥 #Abc

Netanyahu, Sussan Ley, & others choosing to attempt to score political advantage from the horrific events at Bondi, do a great disservice to all striving for greater peace & understanding in society.
The media would do us all a great favour by platforming the helpful & heroic, incl. Ahmed el-Ahmed.

Here’s an article from this year with the Australian gun lobby boasting that, with surging gun numbers, it was winning the fight against firearms control advocates. Blame guns. Blame anti-Semitism. Blame terrorists. Do not blame everyday Australians who marched for peace.
Australia’s gun lobby says it’s ‘winning’ the fight against firearm control as numbers surge
There are now more than 4m guns in the community – almost double the number recorded in the years after the Port Arthur massacre that prompted a national crackdown

If a suburban man in Sydney can have more than 6 guns at his home (including semi automatic weapons?) then our smug 'we're not like America' assumption is useless. The vast majority of Australians want all politicians to fix this. Now. The gun lobby/party must have no power or say in it. #gunlaws.
This incident has nothing to do with farmers
The man was not a farmer. He had a category B gun licence and 6 registered firearms - and he was living in the suburbs of Sydney.
Why? How?

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

Voters want a Democratic Party that fights back against the forces that have rigged the system and made their lives more difficult.
A party that comforts the afflicted and afflicts the comfortable —not a party that buckles and capitulates.
When will party leadership learn this lesson?

Yes, Mr. President: You’re right. We do have “the worst health care” of any major country.
Despite spending twice as much per capita, we are the only major country not to guarantee health care to all as a human right.
The solution: Medicare for All.
