The NACC is an institutional failure.

FO

This newest Australian Parliament hasn’t even sat yet but apparently the verdict is already in. lol #auspoln

🧵 The CNN piece on Bongino and Patel is one of the clearest real-world examples of a key phenomenon in disordered discourse: The agents who stoke it can become its victims, especially when their disordered discourse meets the reality of the institutions it captures.

Fkn train etiquette, don't stand in front of the scanner if you don't have your myki ready to scan. There are 15 people behind you buddy and one minute till the train.

New report shows Japan potentially making more than $1 billion in profit on-selling more 🇦🇺 gas than our whole East Coast annual domestic gas consumption. More proof Australia has a gas export not a gas supply problem. ieefa.org/resources/ho...

Liberal Senator James McGrath says the Coalition is blah, blah, strong, united, conservative & a party of “values.” But what is a political conservative today if nothing more than a shrill for inequality, corporate socialism, racism, bigotry, corruption, dud candidates and Gina & Rupert? #auspol

I see the Perfumed Warlord this week is living up to my long held opinion of him

The real Jacinta Price. Self-entitled, arrogant & full of self-importance She publicly told Noongar woman, Marianne Mackay that she was “a nobody” & that Price didn’t care that she wasn’t liked by her own ppl Price only cares that she is liked by white power & money www.news.com.au/national/you...

It’s incredible that the Liberal Party would even consider choosing village idiot and pilferer of Australian tax payer money Angus Taylor as the new leader. But it would solidly ram the final nail of the Liberal Party coffin if Jacinta Price is selected as his deputy sidekick. #stupidity

Robert Francis Prevost, Pope Leo XIV, said Trump is problematic.

Look at the colour of Tim Wilson’s campaign volunteer t-shirts Take a look at the colour of Zoe Daniel’s volunteers’ T-shirts. Then have a look at the traditional colour of Liberal T-shirts on volunteers for the election. Apart from Wilson’s toxic rhetoric - I suspect some massive shytfokery here

Tim Wilson is your classic Liberal. He started his career as a shill denying climate change for the IPA. Gifted a plum role he had no interest in as Human Rights Commissioner. Then got a safe Liberal seat he managed to lose by being scandalous and incompetent. He won it back with a fear campaign.

This is actually fantastic. A project between a NFP, Melbourne City Council and the Vic state government. You'd think housing advocates would be talking about this well before now www.abc.net.au/news/2025-05...

Wilson: "Nuclear power is part of building the future industrial base of our country. If we don’t do that, then we are saying either we’re going back to coal, or we as a nation are going to end industrialisation. That is not a future I am prepared to accept." Holy shite. He can't be that dumb.

This is just an anecdote but... A decade or so ago a friend of mine, a smart and capable woman who works in banking and whose political instincts tend centre-right, decided she was interested in politics. Some senior old-school moderat Liberals encouraged her to join a branch and get involved...

Sam Maiden in Insiders was right - Allegra Spender should be the Libs shadow Treasurer - heck leader. But the Liberal Party spent a generation ignoring women and pretending climate change is a UN conspiracy. Not sure they are ready to reverse either. - eg see Hastie

I have a friend who posted on Facebook he’s selling all his properties and moving to Greece after Albo’s election win, motherfucker is taking it harder than Dutton #auspol

just felt the urge to remind you that the owner of baker’s delight is a major funder of advance australia #auspol

#BoycottBakersDelight the founders use their ample wealth to fund #AdvanceAustralia their values are divisive, racist, sexist and wholly discriminatory They seek power to coercively control our personal lives #auspol Not one cent for the #ControlCreeps We are many, this is our power

Sarah Hanson Young, Greens senator on RN this morning: 'this will be the most progressive parliament Australia has ever seen. The Libs spent too much time on Sky After Dark, they got into a right wing echo chamber & couldn't hear what people wanted. People have voted against nasty culture wars'.

GUT THE CHICKEN GUT HIM NOW!

Have SkyNews commentators insisted that the reason why the LNP lost the election was that they weren’t right wing enough yet? 🤪

Ahh yes - the ultimate kiss of death #AusVotes2025 #alttext www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Peter Dutton and his team have confused the fact he can hijack news cycles with the fact he can win government There's a difference between being a content creator (which Dutton performs for our media) and being seen as an electable PM He's a non-paid content clown www.smh.com.au/politics/fed...

A Labor MP doing your job for you isn't "harassment," #NewsCorpse. Just as your "Chinese backing Monique Ryan" stitch-up isn't journalism. #election25 #NewsCorpse

If any Australian journos are following up the Brethren Blueshirts #auspol story, my Facebook page is going gangbusters with people who’ve had encounters with them on polling stations: www.facebook.com/share/p/194y...

Peter Dutton not in a good mood today blocking out questions as his Trump-sympathiser Leichhardt candidate Jeremy Neal dodges journo’s Q + her follow-up on whether he still believes “feminists kicked out Trump”, he then quickly hides behind Dutton. Weak & Pathetic.🙄

Virginia Giuffre, one of the earliest & loudest voices calling for criminal charges against Epstein & his enablers. She suffered sexual abuse & trafficking from an early age. Giuffre 41 died by suicide on Friday. A life too short, a fierce warrior, who inspired many. RIP💜

Liberal MAGA supporter spotted driving past Boothby pre-poll booth. This guy didn’t get the “we need to distance from Trump” Liberal memo.

Denied citizenship by the country he died for, this Anzac Day Aboriginal war hero Bill Allen is being honoured in France. The Australian who rushed four German machine-gun nests has been named an honorary citizen of the Somme. www.theguardian.com/news/2025/ap...

So now we know, it takes interrupting an ANZAC Day service for Australian politicians to condemn neo Nazis. At least we finally reached that point. My heart goes out to the elders whose Welcome to Country these arseholes interrupted

Tell me you know nothing about Victorians without telling me you know nothing about Victorians

Big thanks to right wing media giving @danilic.bsky.social & @itsnotarace2025.bsky.social a massive awareness boost, in campaigning for better environmental protections from our politicians. Tens of thousands $’s in free advertising for a non-story, couldn’t script it better. #AusVotes2025 #Auspol

Just to reassure people, Peter Dutton has as much chance of leading the Liberal coalition to victory as I have of becoming the Pope He's spent the past 3 years grabbing headlines without putting in the work on substance & policies and now it's coming home to bite him A guaranteed failure of a man

It feels a little forgotten but when the Coalition was in power in 2022, they delayed the release of updates showing electricity price rises so Labor would take the blame - and it *worked* really well reneweconomy.com.au/a-rudderless...

How about that NACC? Hasn’t initiated a single successful major corruption investigation. No wonder the Albanese govt has gone so quiet on it.

Don't Worry! Although she doesn't have control of the trust she can still decide how to spend the money she receives. #auspol #kooyong #election25 www.abc.net.au/news/2025-04...

@peterduttonmpposts.bsky.social son is training for a trade at #TAFE, benefitting from #FreeTAFE the hypocrisy of the #LNPThug is mind-blowing #PutTheLibsLast #DumpDutton

😂🤣🔥

Ross Greenwood trying to argue that is the economy slows the govt will need to cut, and wants to know what Taylor or Chalmers would cut. Absolute idiocy #debate

James Campbell (👀😤): last night's first debate on LNP-friendly Sky News was a "narrow win" for Dutton. Tell me, James: did Dutts get the Sky News questions in advance? Oh, and who did *the audience* think won? (Albo 44 Dutton 35 Undecided 21).

🧵 Dutton and LNP are trying to distance themselves from Trump - not because they don't like him or his actions - but because they are trying to trick Australians into electing them. However - it's clear to see exactly who they are #auspol #TemuTrump

LNP shadow energy minister Ted O’Brian has to be one of the most incompetent MP’s to ever enter federal parliament. Another Stuart Robert….
