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

I welcome the NACC’s findings - no corruption, no further action, as expected. This was a dirty Liberal Party tactic to try to stop me from winning in Goldstein. This is what Peter Dutton’s Liberal Party does. Race-to-the-bottom politics that is all about them, not you.

Looks like those “locals” heckling Albo on the NSW coast re wind farms were Liberal rent-a-crowd sycophants & not genuine residents. What you see on the news, media & SM sources regarding any harassment of Albo & Labor in the lead up to the election should be regarded with skepticism & suspicion

Awful: Internal USAID memo instructs employees to refrain from talking to the media about cuts in assistance to the most vulnerable or they may get fired, WaPo reports. Trumpworld knows this is a big political problem for them. Keep the focus on it. New piece: newrepublic.com/article/1915...

Most people don’t realise how LITTLE the major parties receive from HIGHLY influential companies. It’s not millions. It’s rarely even hundreds of thousands. People are paying bigger house deposits than some corporates are spending to buy politicians.

Big slush donations and corrupting influence to be entrenched with Don Farrell’s disingenuous election funding “reforms”. Here Centre for Public Integrity’s Anthony Whealy tables this indictment of Australia’s democracy = no fair go.

📌URGENT: The Associated Press is one of the foremost news operations in the world. Without it, most media entities could not survive. 📌Well, the AP has now been barred from the White House. I'd suggest very strongly that any media that gets its news from AP takes a damn stand here in solidarity.

Feel sad for Australia and where it could be heading. Fear and division making Dutton very popular. We don't need a copycat Trump in Australia. If only Dutton came up with a novel idea. I'm in Dickson. How will my electorate take to Dutton with a Teal candidate? Holds seat by 1.7% #auspol
