The plunder of our seas by industrial fishing is a monstrosity in which almost everyone unwittingly collaborates. For decades this truth has been deliberately hidden from us. Now at last the consensus is cracking. This week's column. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

"In fact, the silver that's contained inside solar modules equates to, in its totality, Australia's biggest silver mine,ā€ said GM Darren Johannesen @smartenergycouncil.bsky.social #solar #stewardship www.abc.net.au/news/2025-06...

The US is reviewing whether to scrap AUKUS while Australia has just handed them an $800 million AUKUS tribute payment. What a nation of suckers! We’re locked into a $375b deal that our ā€œpartnerā€ might walk away from. It’s time for Parlt to launch a full inquiry into this dud deal

"Israel's attacks on the Madleen aid mission to Gaza and the repression of the anti-deportation protests in Los Angeles represent the same imperial logic: any challenge to injustice will be met with state violence." mondoweiss.net/2025/06/figh...

why are white, middle age/old age American men feel threatened by Greta Thunberg, a 22 year old climate activist from Sweden? anyone in their right mind would take a step back and think, the young people of this planet will inherit it at some point and make a change, not burn it all to the ground..

Bridget McKenzie says she wants to keep debating how Nuclear has a high level of ā€œgrunt powerā€ bcoz ā€œI don’t think that’s been part of the public discussion as yetā€šŸ¤” We had a Senate Nuclear Inquiry where the Coalition’s Base Load Power lie was busted. Give us a break BridgetšŸ™„

www.newyorker.com/books/page-t... this is really good. A large percentage of people are quite stupid, or can be led to believe stupid things when it suits them. Also selfish and self centred. The pandemic proved that.

We acknowledge that many are not comfortable calling out Israel, whether its due to guilt or sycophancy, the point isn’t to attack Israel for their identity but actions & supremacist ideology. Israel is committing war crimes, land theft, and genocide. It doesn’t matter why, only that it stops.

9 out of 10 companies exporting gas from QLD have not paid a cent in company tax over the last 10 years. $125 bn in LNG has been sold out of QLD by companies that reported $330 bn in revenue to the ATO. Meanwhile, domestic gas prices have shot up, pushed up by excessive gas exports. #auspol

Today, I was denied access to seeing my constituent, Mr. Kilmar Abrego Garcia. If there is nothing to hide, cut the crap. Let his lawyer and I check on him.

The mugging of the only Black foreign leader to visit the Oval Office so far this year was the tell: Donald Trump does have a few human rights lectures in him, after all, but only on behalf of those with the right color skin. my new column: www.newyorker.com/news/letter-...

"What we're seeing now is a pivot from managing the cycle with things like inflation to dealing with the structural issues of the economy."

🚨EXCLUSIVE🚨Liberal Party Senator Jacinta Price has today written to tens of thousands of people spruiking MAGA-style disinformation group "Advance". Price backs the "far-right" group & calls for money from public. Massive questions for Liberals, just one day after split... theklaxon.com.au/2dxw

Jacinta Price is really struggling to come to terms with the fact that Australians overwhelmingly do not want her repulsive, cruel, divisive, Trump-like style of politics.

www.theguardian.com/commentisfre... Given Britain was signatory to various conventions imposing a ā€œpositive obligation to act to prevent genocideā€ Malthouse asked what advice govt had taken as to the liability of the PM, foreign Sec, Falconer & previous ministers ā€œwhen the reckoning comesā€.

I went further on the global Islamophobia context in the revised version of the piece on Zionist activity by front groups in the recent Australian election. The network of networks is illustrative. It’s not just Atlas in any of this rw weirdness but a collation. open.substack.com/pub/lucyham2...

Lawyers say Roberts-Smith’s appeal cost $4M on top of $30M for the trial that found he committed war crimes, killing 4 men. Maybe that’s why the War Memorial upgrade costs $500M… To polish the myths, not the truth. #auspol

New in PN: The white rural reckoning "Months into his second term, Trump’s policies are already starting to wreak havoc on the very rural white citizens who have been his most loyal voting base."

David Shoebridge fires back as The Greens are accused of being ā€œburnedā€ by their stance on Israel’s invasion of Gaza saying it’s about doing ā€œeverything you canā€ to stop the genocide. ā€œif you take a political hit, you take the political hit…bcoz you have to speak upā€ #qanda youtu.be/asYRDOhLsHo?...

Geezuz QLD LNP axing 75% of staff at Service Delivery in QLD Dept of Housing. Reducing pay of remaining permanents. This is what the LNP do. They CUT services, cut health, cut education - to benefit themselves & their donors. Campbell Newman 2.0 with a Joh gerrymander if they can get away with it
