The PM is making an extraordinary intervention to protect foreign-owned salmon farming companies, driving an endangered species to extinction. He's ignoring the science & torpedoing a long-awaited review of the damage being wreaked upon Macquarie Harbour. @eloise-carr.bsky.social on ABC News:

Under fascism, no one is safe. Universities stayed quiet as the admin targeted DEI & foreign aid, censored research, etc. Now, they face devastating cuts to indirect cost rates, threatening research & operations. Silence won’t protect institutions. It won’t protect people; it never does.

Why the hell is the ABC Board Chair, who oversees a total staff of 4,700 people and an annual budget of $1.2 billion - micro-managing and inserting herself into the specific dates of a temporary on-air Sydney radio presenter? How many of the other 4,700 did Ita Buttrose personally meddle with?

Statement from the Jewish Greens We condemn Musk’s Nazi salute. We condemn the bizarre excuses and explanations. We condemn the silence of other Jewish orgs. And we congratulate @jewishcouncilau.bsky.social for speaking out. 💚 Antisemitism is real. None of us will be safe until we’re all safe

Power through the self importance and the ghoulish pomposity of this paragraph, and at the end there’s that little racist kicker. This is not THE COUNTRY THE KILLER COMES FROM DID I MENTION HE WAS FOREIGN

Anyone who believes that, as agreed (sort-of) under AUKUS, Australia will, sometime in the far-distant future, buy, build, operate 8 nuclear-powered subs, is a: charlatan (Morrison); weak-kneed appeaser (Albanese); or rep of an org that will profit from the deal— johnmenadue.com/aukus-confir...

Dear @jimchalmers.bsky.social, Perhaps @australianlabor.bsky.social could remind Australians of this.👇 We need to stop funding the greed of mining billionaires at the expense of ordinary Australians. #auspol #energy #nuclear #renewables #education #healthcare

Israel laid seige to #KamalAdwan Hospital, the last functioning hospital in northern Gaza, forcing medical staff and patients to strip and leave the hospital at gunpoint, then setting fire to it. Western media (incl. BBC and ABC) reported this as an "evacuation". 😠 #IsraeliWarCrimes #GazaGenocide

Roger Cook & Reece Whitby will go down in history as enablers of climate criminals. Minister Tanya Plibersek must make a decision; not for the benefit of a few rich, psychopathic multinational fossil fuel corporations, but for the long term good of all. That means she must say NO to this project.

I often hear wind and solar lead to more power outages. But it’s not true. Here's the data for Germany: Wind + solar had a share of 33% of electricity in 2022. ➡️But there were 43% FEWER interruptions than in 2006 when wind + solar contributed only 5%.
