This is the one way to ensure #AnythingButDutton. #Auspol. 😊🤞🦋

Burn.

Weird how good policy that helps people is also good politics. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-02...

This was the most interesting conversation about where we are in the world right now that I have had since Trump and Musk upended the Monopoly board & stole all the money. Have a watch.

Woohoo This is the 2nd week #SundayShot has trended on #Bluesky Not easy to do, so well done @davemilbo.bsky.social @instanterudite.bsky.social @deniseshrivell.bsky.social If ABC to do a passive aggressive hatchet job on it & #MurdochGutterMedia go full feral, we'll know we have them worried.😁

SIGN my Nomination Form! As an Independent I need 100 people from the Casey electoral roll to sign my Nomination Form to submit to the Australian Electoral Commission to nominate as a candidate. Drop by our stall tomorrow at the Upwey Community Market 9am-2pm #claire4casey #claireFM

What do electoral (donation) reforms mean for you this election? Major parties are afraid of community independents giving you a direct say. They want to entrench their rule, so you won't have that say. Having & keeping that say starts with how you vote. More here: tinyurl.com/22csxntj #Democracy

I was thinking this morning that another red flag would be that #trump creates a 'special branch' of the secret service, called something the 'The Presidential Guard' to protect him and bully his opponents. It's on a 'US coup' bingo card somewhere ...

Good policy is good politics. Not only is lowering the cost of essential services a great way to help in a cost of living crisis… imagine Dutton trying to win back Teal seats or take outer metro seats from Labor while opposing free doctors visits

Neoliberalism is dead. So why haven’t Australia’s leaders got the message? www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Finally! Something we can look forward to. #auspol ‘We’re clearly heading towards collapse’: why the Murdoch empire is about to go bang www.theguardian.com/media/2025/f...

The major parties don't have the moral courage to protect the people and places we love. This election is an opportunity to vote for a candidate who will. Minority govt may be the only thing that forces the Govt to put 🇦🇺ns ahead of vested interests. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

I wholeheartedly support the principle, but joining a party, even on the left, will not change things and the US system does not favour #independents Australia has a unique opportunity, according to the architecture of its political system, to change the balance of power in its governance. #auspol

Tomorrow morning live on Youtube and Facebook, instead of complaining about Insiders, we are making a better version of it. #SundayShot Featuring @davemilbo.bsky.social , @instanterudite.bsky.social , @janecaro.bsky.social , @joshbornstein.bsky.social and @sarahschwartz.bsky.social

The former director of the ACCC Gas Inquiry is calling for a limit on gas exports. 80% of Australia’s gas is exported. They are draining the system to the point we need to start importing gas, and they price gouge us for the remaining 20%. Calling a duck a duck. #auspol

We could see this repealed or reformed by a stringer crossbench after this election. It will be high on the #independents wish list. #auspol

#Trump, like other tyrants is ruled by a menta illness: malignant narcissism. That's why they admire each other and play by the same playbook. They're all insecure bullies driven by their compulsions. That is why they always fail. They always cross that one line they shouldn't. #tyrant #democracy

WE the People out number these monsters 👹 by millions! We can and will win this! #resist #DemocracyDefender #NeverGiveUp #NeverGiveIn

@helenhayes.bsky.social When public trust is so low, there is a clear case for amending the NACC Act….Australians were promised a new era of transparency and accountability. That work is not done…The first step is removing the overreach of the exceptional circumstances test. #auspol #Integrity

Even French far right politicians find this too awful - but have any of the Australian LNP attendees at the CPAC conference walked out, or even said a word, after a key note speaker gave a Nazi salute on stage?

Let's make it a reality. #auspol #independents #communityindependents #democracy

Do you live in Sturt? By city standards (Adelaide) it's a big seat, stretching from Grand Junction Road to Glen Osmond ...and if you're lucky enough to live there, you'll soon have the option of electing a community focused independent who listens (that's me)! Here's a map to get your bearings:

Big Gas is taking the piss. Help us spread the word, and share this. 👇 90% of WA’s gas is exported. Big Gas takes 73% the gas for free. To add insult to injury, these gas exporters have never paid resources tax. Add your name to make them pay their fair share: theaus.in/collect_gas_... #auspol

First party to find a way to dump AUKUS wins the election. Australians don't want to be part of the Trump Reich

Very looking forward to this

Thanks again, Labor

A few weeks in and Abbott is already saying Trump in fantasy land…its going to be a long four years people 🍿

#reality #ByronKatie #presence #awareness #mindfulfuless

Prediction: Dutton (Temu Trump) is going to start distancing himself from Trump and his policies. Day by day it's becoming obvious Dutton will be tarnished by Trump's shitfuckery. #ClivePalmer will instead harvest the Trumpest votes and preference them back to the Libs. #auspol

Just when you think “oh, this federal election is going to be a shitshow” up pops Clive Palmer to remind just how shitty that show is going to get. #TrumpsPet
