We now see why 1999 was a big year for environmental vandalism. Plus: Changing of the guards, Dan Tehan’s career path, Matt Kean’s generational challenge.

Such a weird choice of image from this conservative campaign group in Australia....is the implication that the earth mover on the barge is meant for the offshore wind turbines

Because.......that's in water

Albanese and Dutton’s utterly spineless response to Trump’s genocidal Gaza statements show that Australia is more likely to lean towards complicity than to defend our own values, or international law, or human rights.

If Dutton wins #Fedelection, he’ll halt advance renewables to kowtow to fossil fuel donors just like Qld LNP is doing now by trying to stop all wind farms previously approved! #auspol

BREAKING: Labor and Liberal may not agree on much but when it comes to introducing a new law to stop Clive Palmer, but which actually stops newcomers from competing with them in our elections, you can be sure they'll pass it and lock in the two-party system by Xmas www.youtube.com/watch?v=N3WT...

The RBA’s obsessive inflation hawkery is hurting ordinary Australians
Today's figures show that inflation is under control, but the RBA board does not meet for another 6 weeks!

As @grogsgamut.bsky.social writes, there was no excuse for taking 10 weeks off when Australians need the cost of living relief of rate cuts. #OffTheCharts

Just finished reading and notating this meticulously researched book. My own ignorance shocked me almost as much as the chronicled atrocities.

Dutton’s nuclear spin: no modelling like CSIRO, just invented figures to lure the gullible in - a la Cole’s & Woolies!

Friday was Mike Bowers last day at Guardian Australia. He has been an amazingly supportive colleague and friend.

His photos are iconic; he innovates, captures vibes big and small, charms and disarms.

Can't wait to see what you do next mate. #auspol #insiders

For the 3rd year, nations at COP29 have pledged to "cook their kids" alive. Chaired by petro-state Azerbaijan & awash with 1,773 oil lobbyists, it promised only crumbs: $300B for climate aid vs $7T in fossil subsidies. Earth edges closer to uninhabitable. #ClimateCrisis #COP29 #auspol

FFS! The sacking of Sarah Macdonald from ABC Sydney is beyond stupid. I held that same shift on "Mornings" before Sarah and, on listening, wish I was half the broadcaster she is.
With Richard Glover & Robbie Buck leaving too - the station is losing its DNA. Good luck in the ratings!!
