PwC as ever working against Australia's interests, engorging themselves on our money - this fascinating story shows how the white collar crooks manipulate our economy

#strays @darlingm777.bsky.social @canadianry.bsky.social @paulette7.bsky.social @tess17.bsky.social @katiecannon.bsky.social @3wombats.bsky.social This is Melbourne at 23.23 at night (how’s South Australia going Ms Wombats)

Finally some policy to fix higher education in Australia - the @greens.org.au pledge to expand Youth Allowance and JobSeeker. From talking to students, my impression is the #1 reason for poor attendance and performance is the housing crisis - long hours of work and long commutes. This is the fix.

"America’s values and European values are no longer closely aligned. They are not aligned at all. America is in the throes of a fascist movement, and I worry for all of us. But right now, in particular, I worry for our ally Ukraine." @maryltrump.bsky.social www.marytrump.org/p/at-the-ful...

Pleased to see that Australia's capital of coffee and culture has also gained international recognition www.timeout.com/sydney/news/...

Excellent work. Very good to see the Australian government speaking truth to power (Trump). #auspol #Ukraine

Time to end the Australia / US alliance. Join more than 1200 Aussies who have already signed the petition. Sign here: www.aph.gov.au/e-petitions/...

I think Australian progressives should be looking to Indonesia. The issues are very different to ours, and go way deeper than someone w/ little RI knowledge could get across easily/quickly, but it's annoying to see Australians bang on about US protests when a way more compelling one is playing out!

Australian civil rights are being destroyed to protect Israeli information interests because of highly dubious “antisemitic attacks”...perpetrated by people with no ideological interest in Jews who appear to've been paid for their actions by foreign operatives. www.caitlinjohnst.one/p/liberals-h...

Want change? Want to protect Australia’s wildlife and environments? *Use preferential voting to your advantage.* No. Vote. Is. Ever. Wasted! Simply order your votes from most environmentally progressive to least (ecocidal). It’s literally that simple. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

This week, we have seen leaders in western Europe forced to move from fumbling cautious politeness to action as a result of the Trump’s various & wild pronouncements. There's no reason to think Australia's national interests will not be directly challenged in a similar way. Laura Tingle #auspol

“US could cut #Ukraine's access to #Starlink internet services over minerals” Elon Musk’s Starlink is a threat to Australia’s national security. #Trump #ElonMusk #Russia #extortion #BoycottStarlink #auspol www.reuters.com/business/us-...

And any Australian who doesn't think trump will eventually fvck us over AUKUS, even though WE are giving the US $384 BILLION to enhance THEIR submarine capability, WITHOUT a guarantee of delivering those subs to Australia...welp, I've gotta bridge to sell you. #StopAUKUS #auspol

I wonder if Creative Australia knows that Bill Leak is dead and probably won’t be available for the Venice Biennale.

If Trump cuts Starlink to Ukrainian troops, I suggest we boot the US out of Pine Gap, Australia, at least until the US has flushed the cheeto turd reich into prison where it belongs. Clearly the US is captured by the enemy. Five Eyes is compromised. #FunnyNotFunny #NAFO #Article5 #GreyWar

Who needs Trump and Musk when we have the Victorian Labor party willing to gut the public sector instead! www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Border crossing down 90%. Turns out KJP lied, we didn’t need congress to act.

Rep. Jason Crow: “The purge of senior officers at DOD is deeply troubling, but purging JAG officers worries me the most. “JAG officers interpret law for our commanders. They help determine what's lawful and constitutional. “Replacing these military lawyers with Trump loyalists is so dangerous.”

Wait till someone tells them how much public money Peter Dutton is planning to bet on nuclear power stations…

So. It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year. I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

WOW "Seven western Wisconsin Republican lawmakers did not appear at an event hosted by the Wisconsin Farmers Union in Chippewa Falls Friday as farmers from the area said they were concerned about the effect that President Donald Trump’s first month in office is having on their livelihoods." ⤵️

There have never been kings in America. The monarchy doesn't start now.

The 'find out' phase is here.

Trump pardoned the sentence of arguably the single biggest drug trafficker in American history on his second day in office!

Quick Friendly Jordies demolishing the ludicrous myth of "Liberals are better than Labor". www.instagram.com/reel/DGH3N8f...

Hey Trumpy boy. What happened to "peace in Ukraine in one day" ? First shifted to "maybe peace in one day" Now shifted to "maybe peace one day". You complain Europe has done nothing. So far you have offered everything but achieved precisely nothing.

Hillary was right about this fucking puppet.

Today's front page of The New York Post.

dutton got almost 10 minutes on News24 talking bullsh1t today.

Starting to binge on this guy's videos. He makes a lot of sense. Oh, for the world to be led by CONSCIENTIOUS economists (and biologists, naturally)! But people do like voting in governments that the right wing media tell them to. I blame free will! 😜 #ZATAOSLOE www.youtube.com/watch?v=HRAf...

21 days to go. C’mon Aussies www.aph.gov.au/e-petitions/...

Australia and Switzerland for the win!!

A Royal Commission into zionist influences in Australian politics and media is a PRIORITY!!!!! #IsraeliNewNazism #IsraelTheSatanicState #MurdochRoyalCommission #FreePalestine #auspol

The plan of the Right in the U.S. is to take from the poor & give to the rich. The plan for the Right in Australia? Same. That will look like: 👉🏼Salary suppression 👉🏼Tax cuts for the rich 👉🏼Cuts to public health 👉🏼Cuts to public edu. 👉🏼Higher unemployment 👉🏼Higher public debt #auspol
