Do what you can, David. Fixed 3-year terms would be a good start. The shilly-shally of Will-he? Won't-he? is juvenile teasing and unsettling in the community as businesses and families need to plan ahead. Good luck and thanks for your contribution to common sense government.

Attention @anthonyalbanese.com.au @richard.marles.mp Australia must quickly detach itself from the US so not to be sucked into the vortex as the DisUnited States sink. Under Trump, the US cannot escape this ultimate hacking and scam by amoral "President" Musk and his irresponsible DOGE.

How does firing Americans help make America great again? Cutting 5-8% of the workers is unproductive and harmful to our economy and society. This is just simply reckless and unsustainable. www.cnn.com/2025/02/21/p...

It is quite clear that US is complicit in the Israel genocide from its repeated supply of weaponry to Israel. Will the UN and the rest of the world take any real action before Netanyahu reaches his goal of total annihilation?

ALL Politicians LIE, don't listen to what they say, look into what they do/or have done. Vote @communityindeps.bsky.social, & the @greens.org.au Keep the bastards honest. Remember your preferences; don't let the parties pick them for you; we only vote every three years, so vote below the line.

Well done #VicGov One day we will have to redesign our NEM around the customer and what is best for them, not big Gentailers. This makes Dutton's Nuclear "plan" look ridiculous. #Auspol #Renewables #RenewEconomy #Melbourne onestepoffthegrid.com.au/solar-scheme...

Perhaps Netanyahu should apologise for bombing the crap out of the people who were holding hostages. Did he think they would put the hostage's safety before their own? www.abc.net.au/news/2025-02...

Throughout modern history, home ownership was out of reach for most families. C20th may be regarded as an isolated golden age of home ownership. In Australia, the main obstacle is that law-making politicians are landlords profiting from tax benefits.

Bits of dead farmed salmon are washing up on beaches kms away from pens but.. “The EPA would not say how much antibiotic was being used by Huon, citing "commercial in confidence". Water flows. This should be transparent. How far away does the impact spread in natural ecosystems?

C'mon, people, put something into your bio!!! I get dozens of followers each day, and since I DON'T automatically follow back, your bio is the first port of call about deciding whether I go to your timeline and evaluate whether I should follow you or not. No bio - no chance. (Usually, anyway:)
