"Sucking up to Trump...is the worst possible thing to do." "The only way to deal with bullies is to stand up to them." These five minutes from Malcolm Turnbull are a must-watch. Recorded in June last year as part of our Joe Stiglitz tour. #auspol

"They are singing the same song as the Kremlin." Sam Kiley, The Independent's World Affairs Editor, thinks it's "delusional" of President Trump to say Ukraine is being led by an authoritarian regime. #Newsnight

Dutton trotting out his wife to sugar-coat his vile agenda is pathetic. We all see you for the bigot and bully you are. Turnbull said it good when he pronounced you a ‘thug’. Beware Australia for a minority LNP Govt, he’ll slash and burn services, privatise everything. Trump 2 in Oz. #Auspol

Competition is great, but it’s not going to make your insurance premiums cheaper. Tax fossil fuel companies properly and make them pay for the damage they have already done.

The FAA and SpaceX hid the fact that they list yet another rocket this month. Not only that, but the FAA is not going to investigate either. And there’s your reason for forcing out the head of the FAA.

Nikki Savva knows how politicians think, especially the Liberal party versions. She absolutely destroys #temuTrump Peter Dutton here and rightfully takes aim at our local media for the lack of scrutiny on the bloke. Fantastic column.

The colour is maroon not teal. Ellie Smith is an IND candidate for Dickson in Qld currently held by Peter Dutton on a margin of 1.7%. Like the IND NSW, WA & Vic seats won in 2022 there's community driven support for her but it is a unique seat. #auspol www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Apart from anything else, Dutton wrapping himself so snugly in a Trumpian cloak highlights his pathetic lack of imagination.
