ABC News Breakfast hosts this morning are parroting News Corp's non-story about the PM - "Albanese yet to secure critical meeting". A manufactured narrative which just goes to show how deeply News Corp’s anti-Labor framing infects our public broadcaster. #auspol www.news.com.au/national/pol...

So, he gets formal advice from his Department, a second independent opinion to be sure AND the corruption commission investigates and clears it... while she calls in carpet cleaners to interfere with a crime scene... female misogynist #auspol

The most pointless Lib, Angus Taylor says the Coalition willing to working with Labor on increasing our defence spending. Of course only so the LNP get what they want. Otherwise it's opposition to everything. #auspol #opinion #corymedia www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

We need to learn to stand on our own two feet. Not a colony of the UK, not an outpost the US. We are fucking Australians and we can take care of our own.

Just to be clear, we are not America’s ally we are its whipping boy. Tariffs for no reason Subs with no guarantees Demands on our budgets We can keep fooling ourselves that we matter to the US so we have a seat at the big kids table but the truth is they are a bully stealing our lunch money.

The China threat was never real The US support was never there The Subs were never coming The $800m was always a loss The rationale was always flawed The value was always fanciful The risk was always betrayal The opportunity was always sovereign capability #DumpAukus

This is an extraordinary speech, never seen anything like it except in disaster flicks! One for the history books. There are 23 Democratic Governors in the US. If they show this spirit, Trump has no chance of enduring for very long: youtu.be/pXQQNUeb4Sw #union #auspol #solidarity #democracy

I think there must be some #ALP politicians who may be happy with #USA's review of #AUKUS & the possibility of Australia leaving it. #Trump can get fucked if thinks he can tell #Australia to nearly double our #Defense budget, #auspol
