Hugh White gets it. The U.S. is walking away from us, not the other way around. But Canberra’s still clinging to its Anzus security blanket like it’s 1951. Marles would join a war over Taiwan before admitting we need a foreign policy of our own. #auspol #AUKUS

Israel has bombed Yemen, Palestine, Lebanon and Syria all in just 24hrs. No consequences. Israel continues its obscene genocide in Gaza, openly boasting of its plan to conduct ethnic cleansing. No consequences. Silence from my Australian Govt. I am utterly ashamed. 😔 #auspol #AusVotes25 #HumanRights

Tonight, Australia voted No to ignorance & Yes to Acknowledgement; No to xenophobia & Yes to Welcomes; No to regression & Yes to progress. Peter Dutton, Jacinta Price, Clive Palmer, Pauline Hanson, the IPA & Advance henceforth have no mandate. They’ve been thoroughly told NO.

We're told we "can't afford" to lift people out of poverty or protect our environment, but apparently we can always afford more money for missiles & submarines that we don't need. @mattgrudnoff.bsky.social crunched the numbers & found Australia is the 12th biggest spender on defence in the world.

Peter Dutton plans to throw more buckets of cash at Defence. That's foolishness. We'd get a lot more capability if we ditched the $368B #AUKUS sub scam and purged the Defence bureaucracy that's wasted many $billions on failed projects. #auspol

🇨🇦 Congratulations to Canada & Mark Carney's Liberal Party for making a "stunning election turnaround fueled by Trump's unpopularity." It makes me happy to know that our mistakes are your hazard signs. ⚠️ And that you have zero interest in following in our footsteps. 🙌🏻 apnews.com/article/cana...

From Facebook For starters it's not a welcome to Australia, it's a welcome to the traditional lands of a particular group. If I meet someone from interstate or overseas at the airport and say "Welcome to Adelaide" I'm not suggesting that the city belongs only to me.

Ffs, I am over Dutton with his negativity. Anyone can criticise the government. He says he has a plan. What the fuck is it? where's the detail? Where's the costings? He had 9 years in government, what did he do?....nothing.

And to #ABC management and its executive leadership, I say this - this is what appeasement of bullies gets you. Your instalment of Murdoch hack Speers, and the routine loading of the once respected #Insiders with Murdoch hacks achieved what?! #Idiots #auspol
