Cutting housing regulations doesn't improve our housing crisis. All the money saved on the house is spent on inevitable repairs only a few years in, expensive electricity bills due to poor insulation, and the potential for more apartment buildings having to be abandoned entirely. #auspol

Frank Pangallo, MLC and former SA Best member has joined the liberals to run in Waite, he’s calling himself a watchdog and wearing a weird outfit. Liberals needing candidates from other parties isnt confidence inspiring. #adelaide #sapolitics www.abc.net.au/news/2025-08...

Di Falco and Craig Garland refusing to work with Rockliff, while Dean Winters refuses to work with the Greens, means neither can reach a majority. If Winter doesn't change his tune, Tasmania might be without stable government for months. #taspolitics #Tasmania

The problems with the UK social media children ban will be almost exactly the same in Australia when it is implemented. But it’s far worse. You won’t be able to avoid it with a vpn, and it requires ID, which many people, particularly the elderly may not have. #auspol

Coroner calls on SA government to make hospitals safer amid ramping death findings
A South Australian coroner has called on the state government to "formally acknowledge" ramping is "a reality" and focus on making it safer for those who will "inevitably" experience it.

The Myth that The Greens have lost their way like Bob Brown wasn't removed from the senate for reprimanding George Bush. Both Bob Brown and Christine Milne spent time in prison. The Greens are always ahead of the curve. On LGBT rights, on gun laws, on peace.

Third way politics has destroyed UK and Australian Labor, you have proper progressives stuck to centrist leeches who paralyse their parties on any issue. It prevents proper reforms going to on every step of the way. Party line was a mistake #AusPolitics

Dean Winter constantly stated he would not work with the greens because that worked for Albanese, its very clearly did not help him thats for sure. This election formed a progressive crossbench, Labor is out of touch. #Taspolitics

Polling for the Australian Greens is always dodgy because you've got to consider that what most polling companies consider a reasonable margin of error could be everything from a catastrophic loss to a big win. It's then even harder from there to infer that number into seats.

When Steven Marshall resigned from the seat of Dunstan, there was a very interesting change. Labor and Libs lost votes, with The Greens the main winner, naturally leading to preferences going to Labor, winning it off the liberals. #sapolitics

Do not let the #2026SAStateElection be Maulinauskus "McGowan moment". Labor does not deserve a landslide when it has failed to address key election promises. Ramping is the same, and the several companies falling into admission dont say "SA is open for business" #adelaide #sapolitics

As a geographer I come out of every environmental assessment with a sunken feeling. Every single time state and federal governments underdeliver, the Algal bloom crisis is a reflection of insufficient monitoring and climate adaptation at all levels.

In the #2025FederalElection I did notice a morbid sudden decrease in the visible homeless population in Adelaide, I expect the same in the #2026SAStateElection
We have focused on urban sprawl for too long, rather than rezoning, promoting mixed use land, instating land value tax.

#Tasmania 's parliament did actually change in the election. Rockliff didn't gain the total losses from JLN in the previous election, up 3% isn't good when you were down 12% prior. Furthermore the crossbench is overwhelmingly progressive, whereas before it was largely conservative. #Politics

In the #2026SAElection I urge people to put smaller parties first. The new donation laws mean votes turn into funding money. Lets be honest, labor and the liberals have plenty of money anyways. This allows parties not backed by corporate lobbies a fair go. That win I'll give to pete. #Sapolitics

There is no doubt in my mind that Vincent Tarzia's response to #algalcrisis is a virtue signal, given #SALiberals would never support decarbonisation, or the necessary investment in nutrient filtration from the Murray alongside marine replanting to reduce marine turbidity. #SAPolitics

South Australians absolutely should take the algal crisis to the state election only 7 months away. Potentially, it may take itself there, with many estimates it could last into the summer. This isn't something $28 million and a few concessions can fix. #sapolitics #Auspolitics #Algalcrisis #greens
