Usman Khawaja has asked "where is the justice?" after two Muslim women were attacked at a Melbourne shopping centre, in what's being treated as "prejudice-motivated" "Rather than have an exclusive anti-Semitic summit, how about we stop picking sides and include Islamophobia"

In troubling times, people experiencing high stress or crippling anxiety deal with it in different ways. Some have a therapist, some have a deep breathing exercise & some even have a personal mantra. I have a Mabel.

Labor supported medevac while in opposition but have failed to restore it since being in govt, leaving desperately sick asylum seekers in Nauru & Papua New Guinea without proper care. Having a conscience shouldn’t depend on which side of the chamber you occupy #auspol @davidshoebridge.bsky.social

Perverse/tragic: Jacinta Nampajinpa Price OzStory. She supported Howard’s ‘intervention’ which did nothing on DV, Indigenous incarceration or ‘close the gap’. She joined dog whistler Pauline Hanson to urge Australians to vote No to constitutional recognition of Terra Nullius (dispossession).

For the major parties to push through mandatory minimum sentencing on the Hate Crimes Bill today shows once again their contempt for due process and matters of principle. It is for the courts to decide punishments, not politicians. #auspol #politas

ABC’s Global Affairs Editor John Lyons has called out “the media” for keeping quiet about “huge oil & gas reserves off the coast of Gaza.” Says that if Trump “moves troops in” & gets the “Palestinians to leave” he’ll be able to steal it all from the Palestinians.

Why can’t Albo just say “If Trump did what he proposed, it would be a war crime”? It’s not a running commentary, it’s a statement of fact. What is he so afraid of?

All in plain sight. Please share this image with your friends, family, colleagues - in your messaging groups, on your FB! There's nothing we can do about the US, but there's a lot we can do to make sure it doesn't happen to us - especially in an election year. Time to step up! #auspol

MEDIA RELEASE: Australia must support Palestinian self-determination & facilitate long-term peacebuilding in the Middle East After Donald Trump declared the US will "take over" Gaza, Australia must act with urgency to uphold its values on the global stage & support the human rights of Palestinians.

John Lyons on Trump’s Gaza plan, and Albanese’s silence: “Strangely the Australian Prime Minister has yet to condemn it - he is an outlier on this. One of the few international leaders not to have condemned it. “Either he agrees with it or he is worried about upsetting somebody if he condemns it.”

Labor just voted with the Coalition to kill THEIR OWN Nature Positive reforms🤯 Enough crossbenchers voted to keep it alive in the Senate for Labor to have passed their long promised reform. Neither of the major parties will stand up for Nature 😥

7-Nilligan? Mr Bolt thinks he’s terribly clever by taking childish pot shots at me, treating issues about betrayal of children like a football score. Yet again champions man accused of raping & abusing children (& failing to act on knowledge of multiple paedophiles). Why choose that hill to die on?

I recall not long after John Howard became prime minister in 1996, while enjoying a few after-work drinks I made the comment "I see fascism is making a comeback" to which everyone who heard me said "STOP BEING HYSTERICAL JENNY—THAT NEVER EVER CAN OR WILL HAPPEN." Sometimes I hate being right.

Appalling decision by the PM. He has denied, delayed, and now decided to do nothing. He has caved to lobbying from the gambling industry, and it’s our young people who will pay the price. www.smh.com.au/politics/fed...
