Tight arse Dutton won’t even open his wallet for his own kids to get on the property ladder. #auspol #ausvotes

Why Australia is mediocre at maths – and what we should do about it. Sharp opinion piece by Grattan Institute education policy experts Jordana Hunter and Nick Parkinson in today’s Financial Review. grattan.edu.au/news/how-to-... #auspol #Election2025 #teachers

Dutton press conference right now... #auspol

#Dutton is so weak he wouldn't even stand up for our #veterans when his own government callously abandoned them. #AUSPOL #AusVotes25 #PeterDutton #VoteTheDickOUtOFDickson #FederalElection #mashTheSpud #FederalElection2025 #VoteGREENS #VinnieBatten #PutLNPLast #VoteLabor #DicksonDecides #Dickson

It’s good @albomp.bsky.social plans to visit #Whyalla again; but when he does he should come with a commitment of greater funding for the steelworks. What’s been promised simply isn’t enough. Nationalisation is the one path that gives an absolute guarantee for sovereign steelmaking. #auspol

‘Newspoll steady but Albanese’s ratings jump; swing to Labor in marginal seats’ #AusPol #AusVotes25 #DontRiskDutton Go #Dickson theconversation.com/newspoll-ste...

Peter Dutton gets on to tv and says one thing, but action speaks louder than words.. check his voting history! He doesn’t vote to help Australians!.. He’s a charlatan! #auspol

Jacinta Price Denies She’s Copying Donald Trump, Insisting She’s Focused On Governing for All Americans #auspol theshovel.com.au/2025/04/14/j...

www.abc.net.au/news/2023-11.... #Auspol As we Aussies watch what is happening in America, remember Dutton would do the same given half a chance as Prime Minister. The Coalition policies are very much like Trumps,MAGA

Spoiler: in my read, Gina earned $850.00, while a childcare worker earned $00.08 #auspol

The ABCLNP Radio News show "Opposition Leader Peter Dutton says" is playing on repeat as the opening line to many news bulletins. I haven't once heard an episode of the "Prime Minister Anthony Albanese says" show as a bulletin opening. Happy to be corrected with evidence. #auspol

"When politics becomes performance and influencers stand in for institutions, we risk reducing civic engagement to curated content" lots of great stuff in this analysis. #auspol #election #federalelection

The Coalition will undoubtedly tax the capital gain on the family home for those who have claimed the interest against their tax. It’s in their DNA. #auspol #ausvotes #FamilyTax

Dutton campaigning today with his housing spokesman, Michael Sukkar. 🙄 It's telling that Dutton - a law'n'order leader - is willing to stand beside a man whose poor judgement and brush with contempt of court showed disregard for the very foundations of justice that Dutton claims to espouse. #auspol

Gina wants Trump. The Murdochs want Trump. Clive wants Trump. The billionaires want Trump. Australia doesn’t want or need Trump #auspol #Australia #politics #AusVotes25 #TemuTrump

Leaders not understanding (or caring about) the implications of their policies, or that it’ll make the problem they’re (allegedly) trying to solve worse, seems like incompetence. Which in most jobs would mean you’re not qualified for the job. But one of these two will get the job. #AusPol

You know who is sending all those lobbyists to Canberra? Billionaires. #TaxTheRich #ClassWar #EatTheRich #auspol #Australia #politics #AusVotes25

Come on Australia! We can do better. Tax the rich, get free dental. #auspol #Australia #Medicare #politics #TaxTheRich #ClassWar

Here's some #Braddon action for your Monday morning! In simpler times, we might have written this one off as a Liberal hold and moved on. But incumbent MP Gavin Pearce is retiring, and his replacement (Mal Hingston) is a political newbie with a pretty low profile #politas #auspol #australiavotes

Disgraceful. Dump the Duopoly 🤢🤢🤢 #auspol #DumpTheDuopoly

youtu.be/xOZmZOizs1c?.... #Auspol. Please watch and consider what Sam says. By all means listen to many other views as well. I respect and trust Sam.

Bold prediction but the ALP have lost Wills They will lose Macnamara but whether they will force a Liberal MP on a progressive community just to “own” the Greens if the question. Burns has chosen to sacrifice the seat to placate vested interests & the ALP need to reckon with that. #votegreen #auspol

Predictable & reasonable given #tradewar Mango Mussolini launched on the world. Watch the US get heavy with Australia, its Lynas one of few REM alternatives outside China, and seek access to Mt Weld & its offshore processing plant. #ResistTrump #tariffs #auspol www.nytimes.com/2025/04/13/b...

Brilliant work from Alan Kohler (sadly one of the very few class acts left at our once great public broadcaster). #auspol “The United States has become a gangster state. Australia should rethink its relationship with America because alliance is becoming obeisance.” www.abc.net.au/news/2025-04...

If the flow of oil stopped due to war or economic instability, Australia would have about 54 days worth in storage before we ran out. That would be a huge problem. #ElectricVehicles #auspol theconversation.com/if-australia...

I'm possibly on some watch lists now but I honestly believe this is an issue that we need to speak out on, especially in the context of an election with one party endorsing these sorts of views. Academic freedom without diverse views is not free. Thanks to The Guardian #auspol #histmed #disability

At the time of her arrest, police alleged that Rani Lowry had been speeding more than 20 kilometres over the limit, and had been told by her passenger to slow down. #news #theage #national #queensland

Australia's creative future is at risk unless urgent action is taken to address the erosion of tertiary arts courses.
