"Is Australia spending enough on defence?" is the wrong question.

Should be: 'What are our strategic needs?' [and it's not #AUKUS]

And BTW, how come we rarely ask: 'Are we spending enough on alleviating poverty and ending homelessness?' #auspol

It isn’t often a great empire self-immolates through rank stupidity, but that's the grim spectacle we're now witnessing. Australia must be much more independent and self-reliant to successfully navigate the geopolitical turbulence that lies ahead. #auspol

Americans give Trump poor marks on handling the economy, a new Reuters/Ipsos poll shows. Ahead of his tariff announcement, the poll asked if different policy areas are heading in the right or wrong direction. Subscribe to our US politics newsletter here: reut.rs/4crXBIf

I spoke to a German lawyer representing clients in a range of deportation cases & free speech cases stemming from Germany’s criminalization of speech against Israel’s war on Gaza. Striking how similar Trump’s emerging tactics are to Germany’s. Watch below 👇

Many countries are forced to choose between paying debt or feeding their people. 💰💔

This is not a fair system. Food must come first. No one should go hungry because of global debt rules.

➡️ Right to food is a must 🌍⚖️🌾

How can this be ignored or considered acceptable? Shame on the world leaders!
The US backed Israel committed the largest child massacre in a single day last week, killing over 200 children. In addition it killed 100 women and at least 200 men.

This was done with US bombs and the blessing of the US government. No widespread media coverage or global condemnation.

Good point. He’s already doing whatever he pleases.
TRUMP: If it were up to me, everybody would be sitting in a room together. The room would have solid lead walls, a lead ceiling, and a lead floor.

Wait, isn't he president?

Where is the mainstream media outrage?
"Israel has begun the final stage of its genocide. The Palestinians will be forced to choose between death or deportation. There are no other options."

And still our political and media class stays silent, does nothing. They are complicit. #StopIsrael #auspol

Look at the rubbish that leads the duopoly … near 55 years of Parliament between them and not a single policy that will structurally advance the lives of Australians in any way.

All they have are war toys, a lack of transparency & corruption.

Don’t vote for this shit.
