AUKUS is not going to happen. By the time the US returns to democratic rule (if ever) it will be too late. Apply for a refund now. John Bye, Elwood @theage letters

a side note: this is as frontal an assault on the US by Israel as I've ever seen, and there have been some bad ones. This is Israel blowing up the planned negotiations in Oman tomorrow between the Trump envoy and Iran. This is Netanyahu saying the US can't do diplomacy he doesn't sign off on.

Check out the size of Woodside Pluto gas plant's flare 😲 No surprise there's damage to Murujuga art nearby. No surprise the rate of global warming has doubled since 2000. We must act because our future depends on ending fossil fuel. #climatedisaster #Auspol

Trump is reviewing AUKUS, but it was always a disaster for Australia. "How anyone would think this is a smart deal...is completely beyond me." Malcolm Turnbull spoke to @emmashortis.bsky.social about Australia's nuclear-powered submarine debacle. 🎧 theaus.in/45PiOKP #auspol

ABC insists on calling on Joe Hockey for his 'expertise' on #AUKUS. They identify him as former ambassador to the US. But fail to note that he is a current lobbyist for weapons companies in the US and Australia. aka conflict of interest. #ThisIsNotJournalism #auspol www.abc.net.au/listen/progr...

@edhusicmp.bsky.social doing an excellent job on #AfternoonBriefing, deftly treading a fine line and speaking very appropriately in response to @patskarvelas.bsky.social questioning. Freed of cabinet solidarity responsibilities, he is an articulate advocate against #GazaGenocide

With all of Greta’s privilege, she stands for what’s right every time. Every time she’s asked about herself she answers by redirecting straight to the people she’s standing up for. ‘How are you?’ ‘Better than the people in Palestine, specifically Gaza.’ 👇 = smug bullshit from a small mind

Redundancies when there are no funding cuts. Outrageous. Thoughts with the people about to lose their jobs because yet another new boss wants to stamp their own mark on an organisation for the fourth time in eight years.

I was one of 450,000 Australians that were hounded for 18 months with a false Robodebt. I’m furious Morrison was awarded the highest honour for ignoring lawyers and illegally chasing us and allowing his ministers to call us criminals.

If arrested 200 kms from Gaza, then this was on the high seas and the arrest was unlawful under both the law of the sea and international humanitarian law. The forced 're-education' is also clearly unlawful. www.smh.com.au/world/middle...

I beg the Australian gov. Take sanctions against Israel. End the blockade. Support the flotilla that’s waiting to bring food into #Gaza that has not seen food for a frighteningly long time. Never let it be said that Australia assisted in starving a nation to death. #Auspol youtu.be/1R8JHrNAlYM
