There's a pretty universal rule in politics — a politician's children are off limits. And this week Dutton broke it. #auspol #TemuTrump

Lunched with an old friend, former senior Canberra political journalist. Thinks Liberals in for blood bath, Dutton might lose Dickson. Who might be dnext Liberal leader? State parties not in great shape.

When there's a story abt Russia seeking to base long-range bombers on Indonesian air bases in West Papua, Patricia Karvelas (ABC's Afternoon Briefing) goes to Opp'n Ldr Peter Dutton for comment, not PM, Foreign Affairs Min, or DefMin. She knows Dutton will bag PM Albanese & say he's weak, as usual.

ABC's David Speers reports DefMin Richard Marles has told him he's been assured by Indonesia that no Russian long-range aircraft will be based on Indonesian territory of West Papua. More clarification come, I'm sure.

Multimillionaire Dutton finally admits that he'll help his poverty-stricken children with a home deposit or just give them one of his MANY investment properties. So, wheeling out his 20-year-old son was a massive backfire. #auspol #LNPCorruptionParty #LNPNeverAgain #TemuTrump

We're always told we 'can't afford' to lift JobSeeker or the pension. It's nonsense. "We're so rich we can drop a lazy $360 billion on nuclear subs we didn't know we needed. But when it comes to helping unemployed people, 'Oh, money doesn't grow on trees.'" @richarddenniss.bsky.social on #QandA.

I have seen a liberal campaign ad continually this evening claiming that inflation under Labor is consistently higher than other economies. This is blatantly false. It has been fact checked and debunked. Yet the Liberals continue to lie & pay to push a deliberate lie in election advertising.

The trade war between the US and China has spurred Brazil’s agricultural sector and pummelled American farmers. “It is a boon for farmers in Brazil and Argentina, and it will help their industry a lot,” points out a lead agriculture analyst. on.ft.com/42oB1f2

And in the same press conference, Dutton said he wanted to see house prices continue to increase. Not once, but twice. Clare O’Neil was rightly criticised when she said this last year. But in a press conference where you’re trying to pretend you understand the struggle?! 🫠🫠🫠

Maybe we could "make Australia great again" by removing from Federal Parliament any politician who misuses taxpayers' funds 14 times. 🤔 #auspol #AusVotes25 #PutTheLibsLast

This is the 6th election in a row where I've pretty much listened to every press conference and the questions being asked. And cripes some journos who have been there the entire time, really have not improved.

Peter Dutton is a multi millionaire - and we're meant to believe he's not going to help his son buy a home. Dutton is either lying or cruel. Neither are good #auspol #ausvotes25

I don't blame them one little bit! Australian academics refuse to attend US conferences for fear of being detained ‘When academics fear travelling or partnering with US institutions, the impacts ripple through the entire global knowledge ecosystem,’ one says #auspol

There's a reason ICE agents wear masks in the street. From Kristi Noem's war-crime propaganda to the airport officers harassing innocent tourists, the MAGA deportation regime is not just immoral but increasingly criminal Someday, there must be justice.

How out of touch do you have to be to roll out your 20-year-old son to complain that he hasn't been able to buy his first home....and you have a property portfolio worth tens of millions. #auspol #TemuTrump

So every economist slams the ridiculous proposal to allow limited Tax Deductibility on first-home mortgages, so the Liberal Party attacks the integrity of the economists. Not surprising! #LNPFail #TemuTrump #Auspol #ABCNews #ABC730 #Gaslighting

As a member of a minority in Australia, I will never vote for Dutton or the coalition... Ever! If you are not a male white Australian you should feel the same... And if you are not rich, the coalition has really nothing to offer you... #auspol
