Calling Iran "the principal source of regional instability and terror", while giving the messianic rogue state of Israel a free pass to attack other nations pre-emptively, and continue its genocide, ethnic cleansing and apartheid rule over Palestinians stamps morally bankruptcy on the G7 'leaders'.

To recap—the only nation that’s ever used nuclear weapons on civilians, is backing a nation that has 200 nuclear weapons yet denies their existence, to threaten a nation that doesn’t have any nuclear weapons with annihilation if it doesn’t unconditionally surrender its sovereignty Are we great yet?

At least 59 Palestinians have been killed after Israeli tanks fired into a crowd at an aid distribution site, according to medics and witnesses speaking to Reuters and the Associated Press The IDF says it "regrets any harm to uninvolved individuals" and is reviewing the incident

The Coalition’s ritual boast that it is ‘better at managing the economy’ is simply wrong. Dismantling the myth that refuses to die is Dr Michael Keating, a former secretary of the Departments of Prime Minister and Cabinet. johnmenadue.com/post/2025/04...

​’Peter Dutton cannot claim to stand against antisemitism while giving cover to neo-Nazis and aligning himself with racists. If he truly cared about Jewish safety, he wouldn’t be doing preference deals with One Nation and repeating lines that embolden the far right.’ — Sarah Schwartz, Jewish Council

Dutton flies into a suburb, tells horror stories, blames renewables for lettuce prices, throws out a tax bribe, then claps himself on stage. No plan. No economics. Just fear, failure, and fairy tales. He’s not saving Australia. He’s sinking it #auspol

I can’t believe that because Nazis booed at the Welcome to Country, the discussion is now about whether Welcome to Countries have a place at all and if they’re “overdone”? Are you kidding me?! #LeadersDebates #AusVotes #AusPol

A Welcome to Country acknowledges Aboriginal people as the land’s original custodians. Racists reject that truth because it threatens the idea of Australia as a white nation built by settlers. It’s not about the ceremony—it’s about respect, recognition, and truth.

Wow. China just called out the Trump administration for blatantly lying about the existence of any ongoing negotiations between the U.S. and China.

Peter Dutton made a new election ad, and it’s surprisingly honest and informative. #auspol

Trump was never serious about a real negotiation to end Russia’s war in Ukraine. Now Vance says they’ll “walk away” if Ukraine doesn’t accept terms that serve Moscow’s interests. Bullying is not negotiating. Nor is pretending to be a negotiator when you’re just there to serve Putin. Appalling.

I am not a Catholic, nor do I believe in the divinity of Jesus Christ. But Pope Francis has always struck me as one of the people most willing to work hard to live the life of service and humility preached by Jesus, and was therefore an example to follow. Rest in peace, Pope Francis.

If you hate electricity prices, just wait until I tell you about the Liberal Party governments who PRIVATISED THE STATE ELECTRICITY COMPANIES THAT CONTROLLED PRICING over the 1990s-2000s. #leadersdebate25

Just remember 10 years of wage stagnation was policy under the lost decade of LNP. How fast people seem to have forgotten that, and how much it contributed to our cost of living crisis. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-03...

Cost-of living crisis can originally b attributed to Coalition govt It began in 2021 -& ended in 2023 ‘when wage rises exceeded inflation, spending on luxuries soared & multiple indicators of prosperity reached all-time highs’ Labor fixes. Coalition fcks up independentaustralia.net/business/bus...

AAP FactCheck - Opposition Leader Peter Dutton is falsely claiming that Labor was handed a balanced budget when the Albanese government came to power in May 2022. www.aap.com.au/factcheck/du...

Never in my life have I seen airports as dead as they were today. Every plane was half empty, every pilot, attendant, & airline worker talking about how ridership is cratering. They haven't just managed to kill tourism in a matter of three months, they've managed to kill travel, period.

Again just like the caravan of explosives Dutton shoots his mouth off about something he has no idea about #auspol #TemuTrump

UPDATE: El Salvador’s brutal far-right dictator, Trump and Musk friend Nayib Bukele, has confirmed that he will never return any person sent to him from America. And Trump has confirmed he wants American citizens sent to El Salvador to die in a foreign gulag. This is a five-alarm fire for democracy.

Dutton deserves to lose his seat and the LNP the election. Instead of formulating real policies they have just plagiarised Trump hate and division, while bending the knee to Gina and the Murdochs. Stale ale. Plus Dutton has no personality or leadership charisma. #Auspol #Australia #Politics

Dutton's policy is to give people who can already afford to enter the housing market a tax payer subsidy for five years on the repayments they can already afford to make. It does not increase supply, help lower income people get a deposit, or enter the market. It's a tax break for the wealthy.

Harry Dutton can't raise the deposit to get a bank loan to buy a home. His father is Peter Dutton, who has a $30M property portfolio. If Peter Dutton won't help his own son achieve home ownership, what hope is there for him helping ordinary Australians?! 🤔 #HousingCrisis #auspol #AusVotes25

"Make our bank accounts great again." Gina Rinehart is completely captivated by the Trump cult & with implementing its edicts in Australia. With large Hancock Prospecting donations to the Coalition, Peter Dutton has been heavily influenced. #auspol www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

"The Liberals can no longer attract serious representatives. Instead, they pick through the dregs of whatever crawls out of the right-wing swamp. This is the hallmark of a minor rightwing party from the fringes of politics, not the MO of a major party." open.substack.com/pub/tdunlop/...

This isn't The Art of the Deal. It's insider trading with a bad comb-over. Step 1: Tank the Market, Scare the Non-Millionaires Step 2: Let the Aristocrats Feast Step 3: Flip, but say ‘Winning’ Step 4: Pretend None of This Ever Happened & Get Your Media Dregs To Do The Same Rinse, Enrich, Repeat.

I’m as disappointed in the gutless Albanese as anyone, but the idea that Trump-aping opportunist Dutton and his gang of grifters are seen as a viable alternative just defies belief - particularly so soon after the Morrison debacle. What is wrong with his country??

Peter Dutton has stuffed this election! www.crikey.com.au/2025/04/07/p...

Peter Dutton: "I want to be the Prime Minister for home ownership." Coming from a guy whose government for 10 long years. Didn't have a housing minister.

Peter Dutton may be cooked.

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

It’s a two-for-one deal. By cutting military aid to Ukraine, they help the Russians kill more Ukranians and then by presumably re-directing the aid to Israel they help the Zionists kill more Palestinians. Freedom, eh? www.reuters.com/world/europe...

What a complete and tragic joke AUKUS is. From its inception to its existence as a political/media wedge where neither major party will flinch. And it’s us who are the massive losers. Shame on the political and media class for doing this to us #auspol

Dutton's property investments... A reminder, on this property he made $3,675,000. But because you get a 50% discount on capital gains, he only had to pay tax on $1,837,500. That tax discount each year costs around $22bn - of which $18bn goes to the richest 10%
