So glad that there is an uptick in the arrests of Neo-Nazis. One was arrested this afternoon in Bondi and sending a threatening message to MP Allegra Spender. We need to smash this network and treat their gatherings at a minimum like the harsh bikie laws that prevented them from being in groups.

Quite obvious that @albomp.bsky.social Govt stuffed up NDIS & Support at Home Program for seniors by outsourcing govt service delivery to a plethora of price-gouging private sector outfits who are bleeding these programs dry.
All service delivery should be effected by govt employees only

Australian Labor PM Albanese is reminding me a LOT of John Howard, Tony Abbott and Scott Morrison (with his never-ending self-praise). Could we elect a Labor Govt with Labor leadership and Labor values at the next election please? 😠 #auspol #Climate #environment #fossilfuels #AUKUS #Zionism #CSIRO

“The fact is that we support science, and we support the CSIRO, and we want to make sure that every single dollar of funding for scientific research is going in the right direction,” Albanese said.

If those #CSIRO job cuts are how the govt shows its "support" for science, lucky they don't oppose.

I’m with the States on this.
Yes, encourage hospitals to be more efficient, but if people are stuck in hospital beds because there’s no aged care places for them, that’s on the federal government to fix

States demand hospitals come before federal bottom line
State and territory leaders hold an emergency meeting over public hospital funding, declaring they cannot sacrifice hospital care to bolster the Commonwealth’s finances.

EV chargers are coming to regional NSW — and they’re bringing wallets. More chargers = more visitors = more local spending. Shoalhaven gets 19. Kempsey gets 11. Lismore gets 9. EVs are now part of the tourism strategy.

What we all need to understand is WHY?
This Albanese government is implementing IPA policies left right and centre. CSIRO, environment, coal & gas, defence splurging. Albanese is a Liberal government by stealth. #AusPol

The ban is bad policy and it's clear not enough has been done to prepare young people and their families about what is about to happen. Where are the education packages and support that were promised? Just telling kids to log off and go touch grass is not going to cut it!

Who would think that at this point in Australia’s economic transition we should be spending more, not less, on research and development…

Imagine if we taxed the gas industry and pant more on R&D…crazy talk … #cliamte

That's more than 1,100 jobs lost at the CSIRO over the last two years.

"Combined, the staff association estimates that equates to cutting the agency’s size by a third."

This is more cuts to the CSIRO than was attempted by the Abbott government.
