Policy failure The rich get richer: Australia is at risk of becoming an inheritocracy There is a record number of billionaires in Australia … now home to 161 billionaires, up 11 from last year In 1984 that list had just two people with the equivalent wealth of $1 billion in today’s money #auspol

#theirABC & Jane Norman claiming that #IPA spokesboy Paterson “putting pressure” on @albomp.bsky.social ahead of anticipated meeting with #KingDonald aka #HerrTrumpf. What an absolute bollocks of pumping up the irrelevant #LNP tires #auspol

In response to mumblings by Govt ministers on adopting a gas reservation scheme, the gas cartel’s spin machine has swung into action through right wing media to declare that a prospective gas reservation policy is not a solution to the pending gas ‘valley-of-death’. #auspol #ClimateVandals #PRRT

What’s that? You only have $800,000 in superannuation savings? Gosh, how sad that’s still four times the median for 65–69 year old Aussies. And with a paltry $595,000 in savings can generate a “comfortable” lifestyle in retirement with $51.8k in income a year. Perspective, people. #auspol #SMSF

We'd be a lot better off if we dump the religions and accept this.

According to Guardian Australia’s analysis, a wealthy Australian retiring with $3m in super today would pay an extra $2,355 in tax. perhaps the #abcnews might calm down

After almost eight years of delays, Murray Watt raced to make the extension of Woodside’s largest fossil fuel project his first act as environment minister. They never race to raise people out of poverty. #auspol #TaxTheGas #ClimateVandals www.thesaturdaypaper.com.au/news/environ...

Minns is installing a cop to advise domestic violence service providers how to treat victims and survivors of domestic violence. You know, the responders who <do not> criminalise and incarcerate victim survivors. archive.md/2025.06.06-0...

Your regular reminder that Murdoch’s News Corp is a core node in the transnational Islamophobia industry. For News, Muslim lives are irrelevant. Keep reminding your people of this fact. #Auspol

If one is censured by a nation's Parliament for behaviour officially found to be "corrosive of trust in government", and is referred to an anti-corruption commission for misleading its Cabinet about the "crude and cruel" Robodebt scheme, how is one then eligible for said country's highest honour?

Great questions … 🤔🤔 #auspol

Defence secret nuclear testing! It sounds like a news report from inside North Korea or Iran. But it’s not! It’s from inside ANSTO’s Lucas Heights reactor facility in Sydney’s southern suburbs. Has our Govt told the IAEA? Or not? #FOI #AUKUS #auspol

Another great article from John Hewson He floats the idea of a path to an electable coalition. Although I’m not sure he’s convinced that it’s actually achievable for them. I’m not either. Too many variables -Lack of talent, lack of integrity. No policies www.thesaturdaypaper.com.au/comment/topi...

If you missed @Dan_Bourchier #DanBourchier danbourchier.bsky.social hosting #ABC morning news yesterday , you can catch him today. 😊

Would’ve thought fleeing to Hawaii while the country you lead is suffering from a catastrophic bushfire season exacerbated by the climate change you don’t believe in disqualifies a person from our highest honour. Aussie flag lapel pins at half mast 🇦🇺

Scott Morrison and honour are so far out of context it’s embarrassing. The man fucked up Australia and caused deaths. #auspol

It seems the US president can now be accused of paedophilia, and the media report it like a tiff between two colourful egos. The heinous content of the accusation is just automatically assumed to be bullshit. This is where future historians will pronounce respect for truth dead and buried.

A new boss, his buddies and a $2.6 billion cash splash: Inside the ICAC probe into School Infrastructure The ICAC is investigating a blow-out in spending on contractors under former building unit head Anthony Manning (front). Thread .. 🧵 #auspol #NSWICAC #NACC

Yeah, the PRRT is stuffed. And gas companies are laughing at us all

Stop the rort. Fix the #PRRT. #capturedstate #fossilcriminals #auspol #wapol

"Treasury’s advice was ultimately that it was better if superannuants didn’t have farms and properties in their super funds." Absolfrickenlutely (esp given many of the "farmers" would be living in Double Bay)

“You are not alone”, acknowledging that due to climate change “tragically, we’re seeing more extreme weather events”.albo Six days later, the environment minister, Murray Watt, a former minister for emergency management, announced provisional approval for the extension of Woodside’s project to 2070

#auspol Our ceo spoke to the Guardian about how climate impacted feel about the federal government continuing to approve massive fossil fuel projects. Betrayed. Gaslit. Disgusted. Ignored.

I reckon Brereton was hand picked by @albomp.bsky.social and #Dutton because they both wanted a #Corrupt ineffective a-hole in charge of a "for show only" totally ineffective #NACC The #Crossbench forced them to create. The record doesn't lie.

The rifts have blown up into chasms in the #Coalition as we see just how far right they have turned. Gough's words seem like a prophecy. Fortunately we don't have to worry about them for a few years, except how to keep them in the wilderness, as the 50s retreat further into history. #auspol

Hey Albo … Man up MF … Israel is a genocidal terrorist state led by a fugitive war criminal. Condemn Israel, sanction, boycott and dismiss the ambassador of that disgraceful mass murdering Nation. #auspol #Gaza #Genocide @albomp.bsky.social @senatorwong.bsky.social

If Morrison is worthy of that award then the award is meaningless. It has diminished everyone who has ever received an Australia Day honour.

Update, behind the scenes and bloopers from the ever-brilliant Giordano's @thejuicemedia.bsky.social which kicks the shitfuckery out of pretty much everything. Patreon these guys, they're worth it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=HzGj...

In an angry statement, Pacific Elders warn Australia that approving more fossil fuel projects “compromises the security of our Pacific communities and grossly undermines the spirit of partnership and trust in our Pacific family.” pacificelders.org/statement/au...

Totally agree

So..How on earth does Morrison meet these criteria? *Demonstrated achievement at a high level. *Made a contribution over and above what might be reasonably expected through paid employment. or *Made a contribution to the community which stands out from other volunteers. #auspol #kbhonours

Disgraceful … Albo remove this joke Brereton as head of the #NACC, do what you have to do to remove him immediately. You promised the Australian people open and transparent Anti-Corruption Commission. You failed … #auspol #NACC @albomp.bsky.social

Here we go! Here we go! Here we go! Another excellent panel 🙌🙌 Join us this Sunday morning at 9am for #SundayShot #auspol

Reading this article had me thinking Hamas was the bad guy and Israel had done no wrong in 77+yrs. All this talk of the "brutality of Hamas’ actions" and "the war in Gaza" when what we're watching is ISRAEL COMMITTING GENOCIDE AGAINST THE PEOPLE OF PALESTINE. Ffs. johnmenadue.com/post/2025/06...

It's our Long Weekend #SundayShot & have we got a line up for you! @chriswallace.bsky.social, @mrrexpatrick.bsky.social and @michaelpascoe01.bsky.social line up for a chat about the week that was...& we all benefit from an explainer interview on gas & super from @grogsgamut.bsky.social. Join us!

Another Albanese legacy

If overthinking were seeds I'd have grown a forest by now I imagine it would be quite vibrant amazingly alive one should be less harsh on themselves #Poetry

Don’t give a rats arse what Morrison says or does, but giving him an award from our nation discounts the value of all the other awards other people have genuinely earned. #AusPol
