Weird how all of a sudden, after all these years, Ley trying to hose down one of the things that makes her seem a total dingbat.

Scott Morrison will be given Australia’s highest award for service as part of the King’s Birthday honours. The awardee list is currently embargoed, but Crikey has obtained and is choosing to report on it.

Yes let's spend time talking about how many letters are in someone's name. Oh and a football stadium. Stops us thinking about or addressing the real issues I guess #auspol

Fun Fact: I met Peter a couple of times during SAR call-outs. I always prefer to be teamed up with him because he has a non-BS approach to everything. Although three months old, his article is still valid. #auspol Btw.: Your chance of survival is only 50%, if we're looking for you. Sorry.

📣 Breaking news: Meta's Android apps secretly tracked users' web browsing history! Even in incognito mode or with a VPN, Instagram and Facebook linked user data to browsing activities. 😮 Google, Mozilla, and others are taking action. Did Meta go too far? #auspol english.elpais.com/technology/2...

So the richest man in the world and the president of the United States are fighting on social media 🙄 There’s not really much hope for the world is there.

And now let's watch successive Australian governments, both @australianlabor.bsky.social & @liberalaus.bsky.social completely fail the Australian people by giving it all away to large multinationals that pay no tax & funnel billions in profits to already wealthy billionaires. #auspol

"Just like that, white South Africans were added to the 'rendition to El Salvador' list ..."

Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International have both criticised the definition, claiming it has seen those documenting Israel’s human rights abuses being falsely accused of #antisemitism. #auspol

No, @albomp.bsky.social. Do not do this. 😡 "The government is reviewing biosecurity laws on US beef, which could be used as a bargaining chip in an effort to secure an exemption from US President Donald Trump's tariffs." #auspol #BoycottUSBeef

This is just really funny. 🤣🤣🤣 #auspol

"The Fitzgerald Inquiry demonstrated & railed against inappropriate use of executive power; there is a comparison." Fitzgerald Inquiry's Gary Crooke in 2013 on the comparison between the Joh & Newman eras. Signs now under Crisafulli/Bleijie. #qldpol youtu.be/lh7MygAdDe4

😂 @firstdogonthemoon.bsky.social “First they came for the people with more than $3 million in superannuation and I said nothing..”

THIS. IS. UNBELIEVABLE. Day after day Trymp shocks and disgusts the world! Who on earth would want anything to do with them? #auspol #uspol #ukpol #cdnpol (The Age 3/6)

Transphobia and conservative ideological outrage is alive and well in Australia 🙄

These morons are now defending the indefensible. They've just been flogged in an election and lack the numbers to block this measure anyway. Why would you pick this hill to die on??? #auspol

THREAD: 1. The legal profession’s rehabilitation of the reputation of former High Court Justice, Dyson Heydon continues. At a conference of the Samuel Griffiths Society in August, Mr Heydon is on the speakers’ list, along with former Commonwealth Attorney-General, Christian Porter. #Auspol #Law

Alan Stockdale's abhorrent comments actually mirror those of Scott Morrison when he said in a speech on International Women’s Day that "the empowerment of women should not come at the expense of men". The Liberal Party is munted. #auspol

😂

Is anyone surprised that tinkering around the edges of the PRRT didn't work? That we're getting billions less tax from big gas than we thought a year ago? Remember, 80% of Australia’s gas is exported and no gas export project has ever paid PRRT. Who can say that this is a good deal? #auspol

#Friendlyjordies weighs in on #SuperTaxReforms and hits it out of the park again. #auspol #aupol

Alan Stockdale, one of 3 Australian Liberal party administrators running the NSW branch, today tells NSW Liberal Women’s Council "Women are sufficiently assertive now, that we should be giving some thought to whether we need to protect men’s involvement" #auspol www.theage.com.au/politics/nsw...

Will Liberals actually listen? Probably not because they’re too busy arguing amongst leftovers. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-06...

Too slow on the way up, too slow on the way down. @michaelpascoe01.bsky.social on how the RBA got it wrong again. Labour market #auspol michaelwest.com.au/jobs-fantasy...

Anyone advocating for an increase in Australian defence spending based on a GDP calculation, needs to be asked, "On what should we spend on, specifically?" #auspol

Free Palestine Stop funding genocide. Please add your name to the petition #auspol

That sinking feeling: Australia’s #LimestoneCoast is drying up. Groundwater levels are plunging in a rich agricultural region dubbed the Green Triangle. It’s a slowly unfolding disaster. #auspol www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Is Ted O'Brien actually dumber than Angus Taylor? 😱

Now that the count is over, time to update my polling graphs vs the election outcome. (There's still 100,000 votes not in the AEC's notional 2PP count; too few to make a difference. They may never get to them.) 1. The two party preferred polling was simply way out. There's no nice way to put this:

Great Jewish voices calling for the crimes of Israel to cease. #auspol #Gaza #Genocide

Hey @albomp.bsky.social have you told our pretend friends the USA to get fucked yet? Asking on behalf of twenty million + Australians #Auspol

1/ More points on Defence Spend: The majority of $880bn spend by the US goes towards personnel etc. When the US asks countries to increase their defence spend they are taking about spending on arms & military equipment. The US couldn’t care less if countries doubled their defence spend on wages…

Sen. Warren’s June 2025 report: In just 130 days, Elon Musk used his White House role to boost his wealth by $100B, securing contracts, gutting oversight, influencing policy, and shaping policy to benefit his empire. #auspol

Ted O’Brien will never be treasurer of this country - the stupid cockhead hasn’t learned anything from the election & I hope the LNP keep putting him up for media #auspol #afternoonbriefing

Ted O’Brien looks like he’s going to be an absolute hoot as shadow treasurer. The man is a total clown 🤣

Has to be one of the worst political interviews for some time, Ted O’Brien in a desperate attempt to defend rich ppl with $3mill+ in Super didn’t answer any questions, refused to explain his changing positions & confirmed they’ll start another term by just saying No. Pathetic. #abc

Shadow Treasurer Ted O'Brien struggling to answer questions today re the proposed tax on $3+ million super funds. PK to O'Brien: "Nothing you just said makes sense." 🤣 #afternoonbriefing #auspol

hahaha someone just texted ABC Sydney to say <100 vote recount outcomes should trigger a by-election because their friends were overseas dahlink and did not vote because their vote never felt like it counted before bahahaha okay mate sounds like great use of a million public dollars or two.

Jim Chalmers has accused critics of his super tax plan of a bad-faith campaign against the "modest" but "meaningful" reform. Temu Ted O'Brien made a fresh critique of the policy, saying the proposal was "an absolute disgrace" & would be "a disaster for the Aust economy". #auspol

#Auspol oof must be like sand paper and one ply.
