No doubt the country would benefit from a more moderate coalition (or whatever it is now) but loving watching the smoking ruin burn. #auspol Exclusive: How Abbott and Credlin control the Liberals www.thesaturdaypaper.com.au/news/politic... via @thesaturdaypaper.com.au

One lives on hope. I would like to think I could consider voting for a truly progressive, social reformist government with reinvigorated environmental and climate policies at the next election. Over to you @albo.bsky.social #auspol www.thenewdaily.com.au/news/politic...

Eating salmon? You're killing Tasmania. This Parliament has gutted our environment laws to protect an industry selling salmon from diseased pens & sending the Maugean skate extinct. Our research shows what needs to be done: theaus.in/fix_enviro_l... Watch + share our TV ad with Richard Flanagan ⤵️

Torn between being terrified of a Dutton government and the massive step backwards that would be and really much preferring a hung parliament with progressive indis and greens actually getting important stuff done #auspol

@timdunlop.bsky.social great description of the modern ‘liberal’ party. 👏🏻 #auspol Why can't people admit the Liberal Party is falling apart? open.substack.com/pub/tdunlop/...

Whatever happened to Susan Ley? Apparently she is still deputy liberal leader but doesn’t have much to say #auspol

Wow, is David Coleman the best they can do? Seems like someone who thought politics might be for him but now isn’t so sure. #auspol #100%unconvincing #lnphqregrets

This is how my views compare with the election candidates in the upcoming Australian election according to @VoteCompass. Try it for yourself! #AusPol #AusVotes share.votecompass.com/VnIIdabDz6gW... Seems about right 🤔

I've spoken to half a dozen LNP MPs who had no idea about the citizen 'referendum' policy Dutton is backing in who all think it is nuts - but that is not the point. None are willing to push back because party stability these days means blind obedience, not challenge.

Oh how very interesting 🤔 The guy who wants to be Australian PM has made a shit ton of money on the property market and funnily enough doesn’t want to change the rules that might prevent him making a shit ton more in the future. Such a problematic individual #auspol www.theage.com.au/politics/fed...

Very good #auspol

ICYMI: Dutton has engaged controversial creative agency Topham Guerin, known for its aggressive use of disinformation tactics and deepfake technology, for the election campaign. Expect LOTS of lies. 😠 #auspol #AusVotes2025 www.thesaturdaypaper.com.au/news/politic...

If Dutton were to explain how his nuclear plan works, *it wouldn't work*. As @adammorton.bsky.social lays out nicely here, Dutton has left out meaningful info for a nuclear strategy. Just enough of a mirage to sustain a noisy debate on something that won't happen (and he won't try to make happen)

Is this what you want, Australia? A PM who is a multi-millionaire pretending to be for the everyday Australian but is anti-nature, climate change accelerator, divisive, not very smart and a far-right sympathiser. Really? Not to mention his front bench! #auspol www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Apparently Australia is flooding the US with aluminium. FMD this is such a stupid fight

Peter Dutton's plan to slash 36,000 public services jobs is bad news for: pensioners, families, students, veterans, jobseekers, employers, people with disabilities, travelers and more. However, it's great news for high paid private contractors at the big four consulting firms. #auspol #election2025

Do not vote LNP. Use our preferential voting system to vote for all the candidates you prefer in order. Then put LNP LAST. WIPE THEM OUT OF PARLIAMENT.

Where Niki Savva rips multi-millionaire Peter Dutton to shreds. The pathetic individual who so desperately wants to be PM of this country, yet is so lacking in intellect, integrity and talent. Accurate, surgical, delicious. Enjoy #auspol www.smh.com.au/politics/fed...

I’d vote for this “Every Australian student, no matter their postcode, no matter their background, will receive a fully funded, world-class education.” #auspol #alp
