Terrorism in unacceptable and should be dealt with quickly and decisively. Genocide is unacceptable and should be dealt with quickly and decisively. The only criticism one can reasonably have with @albomp.bsky.social move is that he was too slow. #auspol

Chris Uhlmann in The Oz on Friday in his climate change denial screed suggested that "No one can model the future".
And err what???
Chris seems to think that because he is ignorant of how something is done, that must mean it isn't real.

‘At ANU, that responsibility lies with Chancellor Julie Bishop. If ANU is serious about rebuilding trust, it cannot do so while Julie Bishop remains in the chair.’ - Tony Sheldon (Senate whip) www.afr.com/politics/fed...
![Australian National University's year of turmoil happened while Julie Bishop was responsible for the institution's governance, and her culpability means she must now resign, says Tony Sheldon, chief whip of the Senate.
"Ultimately, the responsibility [for ANU] rests with the chancellor, Julie Bishop. She presided over this continued period of dysfunction, and it was under her watch that catastrophic failures occurred," Sheldon told The Australian Financial Review.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:e3cdplwwzze2etym25zuy6ks/bafkreicq4b4lr6zucgqnoy4fovjvq5shbw6io7nym2hbahtrn2n6fsnrry@jpeg)

Tony Abbott begging conservatives to give the LNP one last chance to prove themselves worthy of their trust is a bit like a serial killer picking up a hitchhiker on the highway and saying, “jump in, you’ll be right, you can trust me, I’m not some weirdo or anything like that.”
