Excellent analysis #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?

Some things that cis people often don’t realise. The various steps in transition all take time, and the time and money needed vary greatly from one country to another, even within a country. There will typically be a period where ID and appearance appear to disagree.

Albanese's contempt for Australia's Pacific neighbours is staggering & deeply, deeply shameful #NorthWestShelfExtension

Call to Action: Object to the North West Shelf extension "provisional" approval* For those that have capacity to respond (make phone calls, send emails) in the coming days. Please share docs.google.com/document/d/1...

You are truly delusional @albomp.bsky.social if you think you were handed a large majority to do this People are sick to their stomach about this, for multiple reasons I'd wish that this haunts you into endless sleepless nights if I thought for a second you had a conscience. #auspol #Vandalism

⬇️⬇️⬇️ 💔💔💔 🤬🤬🤬 😭😭😭

Curse you for ever more @albomp.bsky.social @australianlabor.bsky.social & Murray Watt. You have betrayed the Australian people & the planet, AGAIN! I can't even say I'm surprised, just unutterably disappointed. #auspol #ClimateCriminals www.abc.net.au/news/2025-05...

Here we go. I don't have much to say about this one to encourage you to read, and the title will turn many of you away - and maybe it should - but I don't know what I would do with myself if I didn't get this one out:

"The job of political leaders is to lead us, not walk behind us, to bring out the best in us, rather than pander to the worst in us." There are few in our current Parliament who could do this and the ones that could are, unsurprisingly, not found in the ranks of the ALP. #auspol

I went further on the global Islamophobia context in the revised version of the piece on Zionist activity by front groups in the recent Australian election. The network of networks is illustrative. It’s not just Atlas in any of this rw weirdness but a collation. open.substack.com/pub/lucyham2...

"Australian weapons components become weapons that turn Palestinian children into the components of Palestinian children." This sentence should be a knock-out blow to anyone with a shred of a conscience. #auspol #Gaza

‘QLD’s LNP govt is set to slash all state funding for the Environmental Defenders Office The decision breaches promise by the LNP to continue funding the body made prior to winning govt at 2024 state election’ What could we expect from a Newman 2.0 govt? www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...
