More ridiculous statements from "Opposite land". Vested power is outraged that SHC has found a way to support communities to elect excellent non-major candidates who commit to voting for evidence based climate policy.

A fake video masquerading as a report by The Sun has gone viral. It baselessly claims Olena Zelenska has bought Princess Diana's "revenge dress" from Harry and Meghan for $2.9m. The clip is likely the work of a known Russian disinformation operation that mimics news outlets to disparage Ukraine.

"minority Labor would be rather more like a Labor Government of old than a majority government under present management. ...The real value of a ginger group of community independents, Teals and Greens would be to hold Labor to its promises and pretences." #ausvotes johnmenadue.com/post/2025/04...

OMG... a US district of some sort has discovered the genius of preferential voting (has been used in Australia for decades... if not centuries). It is so tragic watching Euro run offs, and the US and UK have ridiculous elections based on single use votes.

Shocking & shameful from Trump. Is there not a single journalist in the White House with the courage to step up and point out Zelenskyy is the democratically elected leader of a sovereign country who is bravely standing against the illegal invasion of Ukraine by a murderous dictator?

The birds were pensive on my morning walk with the dogs. Blue skies and odd gusty winds in Brisbane this morning.

AFR going hard on talking down a rate cut ... looks like they have an agenda, given markets have 90% chance of a cut.
