Australia's richest 200 people are hoarding $625 billion. We need $10 billion per year to raise the rate to the poverty line. A 2% annual wealth tax on these 200 greedy cunts would cover it. Eat the rich.

Want a good example of how Greens pressure works? There are reports that Labor is going to adopt our "GP for free" policy. If that's true, that's huge news, and it'll be a great help to so many people. More Greens in parliament means more pressure on Labor and better outcomes.

Government’s wins are often invisible: Systems that avoid plane crashes; alliances that avert war; surveillance that prevent pandemics. Government wins are often the avoidance of loss. So how do we tell the story of the destruction of government? The story of future losses not averted?

For decades, fossil fuel companies have engaged in cycle of making climate action commitments, then walking away, while still greenwashing to keep public and investor favour. Companies like ExxonMobil, Chevron, BP, and Shell continue prioritising fossil fuel profits over decarbonisation

For many years, Australia’s Great Barrier Reef agency has provided weekly briefings throughout summer months. Last year, the briefings consistently downplayed the worst due-off of corals ever recorded. This summer, the briefings have been quietly silenced. And the media sleeps on.

Today, Kennett has a column in the Herald Sun calling Jacinta Allen's "rail projects a waste of taxpayer money" except, I remember something from my early (teenage) days as a cadet. I then check my own archives. Yep, what Dan Andrews started building was originally proposed by ... Kennett. Whoops.

Your regular reminder that Clive Palmer has been facing criminal charges since 2018 (his last appeal to have those charges dismissed was thrown out in February 2024; the court described the delay as an abuse of process; he has since appealed to the High Court) www.smh.com.au/politics/fed...
