What’s the point of a system where we have apartment blocks that are almost entirely empty most of the year while people can’t afford the roof over their head.

Thanks to the Socialist Alliance for inviting VS's Jordan van den Lamb aka. @purplepingers.bsky.social to speak at their candidate Sue Bolton's campaign launch in Wills. VS is calling on people to VOTE 1 Bolton in the lower house in Wills and will be promoting that on our letterboxing material.

Whether interest rates are going up or going down, landlords win. It's just how the entirely one-sided class war works in this country, with the active support of both major parties. It will remain so until our side gets organised and fights back.

Yep. Scrap AUKUS. Spend that $300 billion plus on public housing. 👍

We love to see it. 🙌❤️

I said this in a keynote address FIVE YEARS AGO Well, we now have 64 of them spread across the country, and we won’t stop until we have thousands. #ArmyBuilt ❤️🖤💛 Support our cause by donating here: thejilyainstitute.com.au/donate/

Thanks to everyone who made it along to our 'pingers in the pub' volunteer social in Carlton yesterday. Next Thursday the 27th of February we're coming to Ringwood. We'd love to see you there!

It feels incredibly stupid for Labor to confirm that they’re taking the demonstrably unpopular decision to keep negative gearing and the capital gains tax discount to this election - but being incredibly stupid is pretty on-brand for the Labor party 🤷‍♂️ percapita.org.au/wp-content/u...

Feel free to come along to this tonight for a chat, I’d love to meet you!

Inspirational, strategic and grounded conversation from @chenjerai.bsky.social @naomiaklein.bsky.social @keeanga.bsky.social and @astra.bsky.social Thanks @haymarketbooks.org you're the best 💖

Heartbreaking news from the Alexander Maconochie Centre as we mourn the loss of two Aboriginal men in custody just days apart. Howard Hall, 38 & a 73-year-old, both deserve better. We must demand justice and accountability for those who suffer in our systems #EndInjustice apple.news/AQ0BzVTa8RiK...

"...patriarchal white sovereignty, as a regime of power, operates ideologically, materially, and discursively to reproduce and maintain its investment in the nation as a white possession through a discourse of security." 1/3

Very happy to have the @vicsocialists.bsky.social running a candidate (again) in my federal electorate.

Not sure if the slapstick is intentional or not but this definitely slaps.
