Peter Dutton’s plan to slash 41,000 federal public sector jobs is nearly 4x larger than the cuts Tony Abbott took to the 2013 election Dutton’s proposed cuts are so large - 1 in 5 jobs - that it’s impossible that essential public services would not be decimated #auspol

🇦🇺 has a gas export problem, not a gas supply problem - we export 80-90% of our gas (with little return to taxpayers). The Govt should use export controls to give 🇦🇺 households & businesses immediate cost of living bill relief. There's no need to open more gas fields. www.smh.com.au/business/con...

Yet people on the right scream the loudest about being silenced… I’m begging people to think about why we have so many massive right-wing accounts and what it tells you about the money behind, institutional support for and algorithmic appeasement of those views.

This is amazing: a racing industry front in Vic state politics going from trying to trick voters through similarity to Animal Justice Party, to trying to trick voters through similarity to the Liberals, Democrats, and Libertarians This name would be prohibited federally but not at Vic state level

👇🏻 This is EXACTLY why I’ve been pushing govt to strengthen security of payment laws & introduce statutory trusts so subbies get paid when bigger builders go bust. Tradies shouldn't be left carrying the can while dodgy directors live large on their dime. www.canberratimes.com.au/story/891128...

I hope if we were in Ukraine’s position - set up for public humiliation by a mafia superpower as its citizens died to save a nation from a Russia striving to regain that status - our leader would do the same as Z. I hope we, Japan & South Korea send more aid. Time to stand up with a straight back.

The idea of being a 'rusted on' supporter of a political party in Australia makes no sense to me. It's just a sure-fire way to make sure that party can take your vote for granted because there's nothing they could do to lose your loyalty. I hope we see more votes for independents with integrity.

As Jan Fran noted, the ABC "commissioned a sweeping review into racism...The results were damning. The review showed, among other things, 'a lack of shared understanding of racism among the ABC Leadership'." Hard to pick if ABC top brass is more racist or stupid. www.crikey.com.au/2025/02/04/a...

As someone of Jewish heritage, I feel unsafe that some influential Jews can get Peter Lalor sacked by falsely conflating fair criticism of Israel with antisemitism. I also feel unsafe knowing the Israel lobby has such unchecked power over our media and politics, and pretends to speak for all Jews.

$20.8 BILLION. All to do less work for more money. All so the LNP could pretend to have cut govt spending on the public service. When public service is carried out by the private sector the motive is profit, not service.

I noticed in the transcript the ABC host asked the PM three times about the t-shirt to get a response out of him. News Corp has barely (if at all from what I've seen) done a story on it, so it seems much of the outrage about it is being driven elsewhere. Kind of strange.
