12.7% of Australians now below the poverty line. Australia suffers the greatest drop in real disposable household incomes in the OECD between 2019 - 2024. Don't tell me that Albanese's LNP-Lite government is worth my vote this year. There are only superficial differences between ALP and LNP now.

🧵The argument that Australia relies on resources is a bit of wank really 2022-23 our resources made $455 billion Company tax was $42.5 billion Royalties $31.5 billion Total $74 billion If we taxed like Norway, 78%, Australia would have made $354 billion in 22-23 🐝 #auspol

Australian 2025 Election Australian politics is basically a two-party relay race where the ALP and LNP take turns dropping the baton, then blame each other for the fall. While the rest of us are all stuck watching & paying for the tickets. We all deserve better. #auspol #WTFAlbo #DuttonTheDud

“He’s a cross breed of lap dog and attack dog. I got him from Rupert Murdoch, who breeds them. Not the prettiest thing, I know, but very obedient”

Dental Care in Medicare 💯 correct. And how do we pay for it, we tax the Gas industry, like we are a Norway 🇳🇴 at 78% of revenue. And if they don’t like it, they can JFRO and go and mine off the coast of Yemen, and see how that works for them. #auspol #DentalMedicareAustralia

Literally happening as we speak

My article in @theguardian.com about how Peter Dutton uses the Jewish community as political footballs to spread bigotry, which makes us all less safe. Murdoch, you can’t stop me from calling out Dutton and the LNP for fueling racism! www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

This is great public policy.

Soon to be applicable to Australia as well, by the look of it.

Dickson is the most marginal LNP seat after the last election, let's hope it flips in '25 🤞 May I suggest voting for @elliesmith4dickson.bsky.social and giving Labor your preference to VOTE DUTTON OUT #auspol Also, support your local community Independent and minor parties (Greens, Legalise 🍁 etc)

YAY Steven Miles is here!!!!!

Damn how generous & wonderful 🤗

I am less interested in hearing from Albanese spruiking how he and his government will be able to accommodate Trump and the GOP and more interested in how he and his party intend to prevent fascism and christianist nationalism taking over here.

2022 Aus Fed Election Right Wing parties won 59 of 151 seats in House of Reps. Of those wins - 31 seats (>1/2) were won by <7% margin (2 party preferred) - 13 seats won by less than 2.9% 2PP. Preferences matter, put LP, LNP, NP, KAP, ONE etc & RW Independents *Last* Let's wipe them all out #Auspol

Australia's election choices: • A very far right LNP Govt, serving Gina, ending climate action, persecuting minorities • A far right Labor Govt, pandering to a genocidal Israel, supporting fossil fuels, ending environmental protections. • principled community independents #AusVotes2025 #auspol

We live in an age of Predatory Capitalism where instead of paying for service or quality, you are forced to pay whatever they like for essentials like Power, Housing, Banking, Food and 'Public' Transport. Because they have a monopoly and there is no competition or regulation.
