“It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society.” – Jiddu Krishnamurti, Indian philosopher #auspol #antifascist www.smh.com.au/world/north-...

Every issue we face stems from political decisions. And we choose the people who make these decisions. The power is in our hands to elect leaders ready to shape a better, fairer future. No one is coming to save us — it’s up to us’ #auspol womensagenda.com.au/latest/why-b...

For decades, Australia has failed to collect enough income from our mineral and fossil fuel resources. We’re still collecting more on HECS than from the PRRT, our super-profits tax on oil and gas. (Hint: it doesn’t work). Successive governments have failed the next generations. This needs fixing.

Ok…who remembers Ben Elton’s Stark? #auspol #artimitateslife

She won't be there • to celebrate • to choose their presents • to unwrap their gifts • to hug and hold her children, her parents, her siblings close, • to raise her glass • to watch their joy for Christmas 99 Australian women who won't be home for Christmas. #SheMatters #Femicidewatch #auspol

In 1950 US corporations paid more than 50% of their profits in tax. Now they pay less than 20%. Suddenly there is no money for Social Security etc. What a surprise... not.

The fight for women’s rights goes on, even when it appears you have won it. Abortion being legal but inaccessible is not acceptable. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

How hard is it to access an abortion in NSW? These maps show the ‘deserts’ for care in the state

I know radical has been bread out of economics by the neoliberal spawn but #auspol really? “One of the country’s most distinguished economists and two high-profile business leaders will form part of the biggest reforms to the Reserve Bank since its inception” www.smh.com.au/politics/fed...

Yesterday, as police were removing yet another murdered woman from her Sydney home, the Premier, just a short drive away, was doing a press conference on offensive graffiti. #Priorities #auspol

There is a lot of flag stuff going on, curtesy of #potatohead-mp I’m comforted to know that by 2047 we may have a new flag #eventhorizon We don’t want to rush, after all there are some New England separatists sulking in the Nat’s, and hey some even think NZ would be better off as part of Oz! #auspol

"For the LNP and commercial media, Muslim Australians are second-class citizens. Their pain is mocked as fabricated. Their grief is derided as innately racist. Their protests are automatically illegitimate." Dutton is Netanyahu's chief local cheerleader. #auspol www.crikey.com.au/2024/12/10/p...

There were no special task forces set up when a man had his business fire bombed and his house attacked in Caulfield just because he was Palestinian. Nor when someone placed a fake explosive device on a car because its owner displayed a Palestinian flag. #auspol

Still trying to decide whether @abcnewsbot.bsky.social ran this as further evidence of the #NuclearFairytale or simply to give voice to its “critics” (read people with #LNP talking points) #auspol www.abc.net.au/news/2024-12...

"The grid was under pressure because of coal, not because of renewables...failure of unreliable coal highlights the pressing need for reliable, clean & cheap renewable power." Important piece from Matt Kean, Chair of the Climate Change Authority. 👏 www.afr.com/policy/energ...
