Was at the annual Gas Industry conference this week, and let me tell you they are struggling. Arse out of the backside of their pants. Just can't get any business done. Red tape is killing them. Australia is a terrible place to do business....

The ongoing loss of life, starvation and human suffering in Gaza is unconscionable and I do not accept that Australia's influence is limited. I have written to the Prime Minister asking him to use the authority of his office in a stand against the actions of Israel. #gaza #auspol bit.ly/4mz81ut

The French government will not approve blowing up French heritage. This is Australian governments approving blowing up Aboriginal heritage. Big difference.

Life in Gaza two-and-a-half months into an Israeli blockade: people are killing horses, butchering wild rabbits, boiling weeds and scouring the shore for turtles to get something to eat. Livestock are already dead and most of Gaza's farmland is barren. www.ft.com/content/48dc...

This is barbaric. It has been more than 60 days since Israel ordered a halt to all humanitarian aid entering Gaza — no food, fuel or even medicine. 91% of the population analyzed by the UN is estimated to be facing “food insecurity,” with most enduring “emergency” or “catastrophic” levels.

Received an ALP text yesterday screaming that the Greens failed to preference in a particular seat, which meant that they wanted a Dutton victory. Irks me that they feel so entitled to Greens preferences while lambasting their policies and voters. The ALP did NOT win this on their own #auspol

I’m not sure about you but it seems that some of our political leaders don’t know the difference between a Welcome to Country or an Acknowledgement. No wonder we can’t close the gap

"Dutton’s decision to...reinstate Pezzullo if elected tells us a great deal about his judgment and why his campaign has gone off the rails: he will happily remove 41,000 public servants but would bring back the one who broke the rules." @davidhardaker.bsky.social thepolitics.com.au/duttons-sink...

Peter Dutton says he will never stand in front of the Aboriginal flag as Prime Minister. I think we should vote to ensure he's right. 😏 #auspol #AusVotes25

Does this mean Dutton will wait until he’s 100% sure that EVERYTHING is down to climate change before he acts? Like… Armaggedon? live.australiainstitute.org.au/2025/04/aust...

During apartheid, South African armed forces killed 69 civilians in the Sharpeville Massacre. The world was shocked. This event is still taught in history classes. On average, Israel has massacred more than 70 Palestinian civilians every day for the past 18 months.

Have you noticed how this stuff just fell off the front page and nobody wants to talk about it now? This is basically what happened with the war on terror, which the public would’ve concluded was over, but continued in silence occasionally reported on page 19.

Australia is selling its gas to Japan so cheaply, that Japan is selling it again to other countries! But Big Gas wants us to think we have a shortage problem, not an export problem. 🎤 Yuki Tanabe at the Australia Institute's #ClimateIntegrity Summit 2025 #auspol

How do we Dutton-proof the public sector? The Coalition will cut 40,000 jobs from the APS and bring the Big 4 Consultants back to the trough. Diminished services at three-times the cost. Labor needs to do more to ensure there is no return to these wasteful practices.
