The port of Seattle right now. It's completely empty with no new ships coming in. We're going to have disruptions to access of basic goods unlike anything we have ever experienced in our lifetimes.

Dutton really flunked on dividing us. Think majority are so over the vitriol. We’d prefer policy to improve lives.

"Dutton said that some media were 'so biased' and 'many of them are just activists, not journalists'. ...'I think the leftwing media, by polling day, will be counter-productive'.” Could you give us a steer, Pete?

When the hard right runs out of ideas (and it usually doesn’t take long) they spin their culture war wheel. That Dutton bloke has sure been spinning real hard this last week.

It’s actually sick that a tiny group of foul white supremacists have managed to propel Welcome to Country onto the election agenda because so much of the media immediately legitimised their grievance. They’ll be rubbing their hands in absolute GLEE at the way media took the bait.

The US wasn't invited to the UN-led meeting of world leaders on climate action last week, where China pledged to double down on climate action. And when the US is present at a climate event, their message goes down "like a fart in a phone box." 🎁 link www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...

Given how much more fucked up the world is about to get, the question isn't are you better off than you were three years ago - it's what do you think the next three years are going to be like and who do you want making the decisions? And that's not just about a PM, but the whole parliament.

Peter Dutton is now going full Nasty Party. Attacking Welcome to Country after the Anzac Day neo-nazi disgrace is divisive, dangerous and desperate. The nasty, mean dog-whistle politics is on full throttle. Peter Dutton is a disgrace.

We are in a climate crisis which threatens our capacity to survive and, a few days out from an election, our politics is dominated by a neofash-driven “debate” on Welcomes to Country and a spat about costings and credit ratings. Neither ALP nor LNP are being held to account on climate

If Labor are returned to government with a majority, they will drop all pretense of even paying lip service to our climate, environment & biodiversity crises #AusVotes25 (bizarrely, Labor's approval of 30 new coal & gas projects since 2022 makes lil impression on pple still sore about CPRS in 2009)

Peter “African gangs” “walking out on the Apology” Dutton - objectively one of the most racist politicians in recent Aus history, again weaponising the accusation of antisemitism against The Greens, is a truly despicable moment in a dark period. As a Jewish Green, I’d sue the fucker if I could.
