My modern history teacher, the NDIS and me. More than two decades (!!) after our final class, the one where she taught us the art of critical thinking, I'm trying to help her against the bureaucratic machine following her husband's death. www.thesaturdaypaper.com.au/news/2025/03...

Bloody hell "The moment the NDIA was alerted to Paul’s death, staff froze the funding. A team of support workers who had done shifts before he died and were owed two weeks’ notice suddenly lost their jobs and the money to pay them as contracted was now locked away."

Dutton will come out soon casting even a tiny bit of doubt on AUKUS - wedging Labor - as AUKUS can’t possibly be popular with Australians - and decreasingly so #auspol

Trump berates Zelensky, the leader of a democratic country courageously fighting Russian imperialism, while he allies himself with Putin, a dictator who started the bloodiest European war in 80 years. Sorry, President Trump. We believe in democracy, not authoritarianism.

In a pique of anger after war hero Zelensky stood up to the weakling puppets Trump and Vance. We had a view into the former’s mush of a mind. Embarrassingly in came in a gush of words about Russia and Hunter Biden (yes really) laptops, Russia, Joe and Hilary. The mind of a solipsistic fool. All him.

Zelenskyy went into that nest of vipers and roasted them all. Good. They all exposed themselves, they demeaned themselves in a way that was undeniable. Perfect.

I will never forget the photo of Zelenskyy’s face after he saw Russia’s war crimes in Bucha in 2022. He seemed to age years in an afternoon. Watching him constantly cross the world asking for aid that should have been thrown at him is one of the deepest shames of our age.

We were there. We saw how the police, unprovoked, fired CS canisters at protesters. The riots followed. A panic-stricken gvt clearly tried its best to mar the magnificent peaceful demonstrations with violence. They failed. Contempt is their just dessert. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/f...

The Congressional Research Service says the US can’t build Virginia SSNs at a rate needed to transfer subs to us. The UK Infrastructure & Projects Authority says delivery of #AUKUS SSN reactors is unachievable. Even the RAN agrees AUKUS is high risk; yet they stumble on regardless. $368B 🤷‍♂️ #auspol

Vice Admiral Mead says of #AUKUS “This program is very high risk. We’ve made that clear to government, government has made that clear to the public”. What did he tell Govt? When did Govt tell us? What are the risks? What are the risk mitigation strategies? #FOI #auspol

Just heard that the Head of the Australian Broadcasting Corporation described the phrase ‘illegally occupied Palestinian Territories’ as an "antisemitic expression". Does he realise he just called the International Court of Justice antisemitic? WTF happened to Australia's establishment?

The recently released Palestinian hostages have shown signs of torture, starvation and major medical neglect. Yet no word or show of concern about this from the Western media or governments. Yet, they'll talk all day about the plight of white Ukrainians. Hypocrisy. #Gaza #GazaGenocide #Westernracism
