Would’ve been nice to have a rural journalist on the #insiders panel this week

Column: Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese's political success holds lessons for not only how to win on climate-friendly energy policies, but how to hold power while executing on them, writes Debra Kahn.

I’ve woken up this morning and my brain is obsessed with the idea that journalist should be registered profession.

Liberals: we need to listen because we're clearly out of touch. Nats: That's not out of touch, THIS is out of touch.

Free advertising for local groups and events New England Times has launched a new Advertising Support Program to help not-for-profits, community groups, sporting clubs, and local event organisers promote their initiatives across the region.

Omfg. Paul Sakkal platforms the boys and their blogs as “important for democracy” ignoring the dozens of women with PhDs who routinely point out the nonsense commentary his masthead continues to fuel. #insiders

Taken to blocking anyone posting Palestine stuff. Soz. You’re entitled to your views, and I’m entitled to protect myself from them while still mourning a friend that Hamas killed.

Why is the photographer on ABC News chewing gum?

Morning @markbutlermp.bsky.social, congrats on retaining the health portfolio. Just a reminder, Aimovig was recommended by PBAC last November. Any time you'd like to list it on the PBS so I can stop worrying about if I can afford my medication and, y'know, eat, that'd be great. #givemigraineabreak

Serious question: how did #auspol chatter here become more feral than X already?

Just me, or is Albo in a foul mood today?

Ed Husic on #insiders “you can’t support diversity and then leave it to sit quietly in the corner.”

If @albomp.bsky.social doesn’t dump Marles he is utterly deaf. #insiders

Ed Husic is all class. ❤️ #insiders

Seriously? @albomp.bsky.social talking up diversity while booting Husic and Dreyfus? Omg.

So, are we drawing any inference on a Jew and a Muslim - both of whom are highly competent- getting dumped from the front bench?

Sing it.

Sounds like elbow has forgotten about Sen Fatima Payman. #ABC730

@albomp.bsky.social a vote for Labor means I can be certain that Migraine will remain the most underfunded, under diagnosed and under treated condition in the country. Aimovig was recommended by PBAC 6 months ago. Why hasn’t it been listed yet? Why won’t you #givemigraineabreak? #npc

Youth vote a lurking threat to electoral certainty Millennials and Gen Z now represent 47 per cent of the electorate, with more than 90 per cent of 18 to 24-year-olds registered to vote, but they're also the most disillusioned voters.

5000 kilometres to stand out on a ballot of nobodies At some point yesterday on his drive from Burren Junction to Gunnedah, Labor candidate for Parkes Nathan Fell passed 5000 kilometres travelled in just two weeks - but most of his competitors aren't showing up at all.

“Very shallow” Uralla draft housing strategy undermines election pledges A draft housing strategy for Uralla put out for public comment over the last two months has caused considerable concern and confusion for locals, and made a mockery of federal election pledges.

To every news publisher who has paywalled candidate profiles and other important election stories, seriously, take a damn good look at yourselves.
