After getting arrested and fined at their own campus, angry
@Sydney_Uni students confronted their VC and demanded him to pay all of the fines and asked him that how could he sleep at night when his salary can pay for 10,000 casual staff hours? @CasualsUsyd @honi_soit

Snap rally at NSW Parliament and a march to the courts at the Downing Centre where climate activist Violet Coco was sentenced to 15 months in prison last week.

We demand repeal of the draconian anti-protest laws, an end to new fossil fuel projects and serious climate action now!

[Aman Kapoor @AmanK2042]

Great talk by architect @PhilipThalis , Angelo Candalepas and professor of classics Alastair Blanshard at Parliament house today about classical Greece and it's influence on #Sydney. #Architecture

Today's protest against the course merger of Gender and Culture Studies has commenced! Rain or shine, students will continue to fight our neoliberal university

[Refugee Solidarity Meanjin @RSMeanjin]

Solidarity banner drop in a week where @QldPolice took the life of an Aboriginal man in Toowoomba, barely a year after they took Aunty Sherry's life in a Brisbane watchhouse.

Scomo when are you giving us the good news?

[Solidarity @soli_aus]

2500 refugee supporters are rallying in Brisbane today, calling for 20,000 more places for Afghans fleeing the Taliban and permanent visas for all Afghan refugees in Australia and in detention on Nauru and in PNG.

[Padraic Gibson @paddygibson]

Two more very bad developments in the extension of police powers today - use of pepper bullets against anti-lockdown protestors in Melbourne and 8 months jail for a Sydney protest organiser.

Zero support for these stupid rallies but ACAB

[Padraic Gibson @paddygibson]

Fuller and his gang of racist thugs have been given unprecedented powers. Cops can order people into home detention for 14 days regardless of COVID+ status, with no oversight.

End the police and ADF occupation of Sydney's working-class communities! https://t.co/5woacFWHPh

Boy howdy am I having a lot of feelings about Afghanistan today

I deployed there twice--once in 2008 and once in 2009-10

It was already obvious that the Taliban would sweep through the very instant we left

And here we are today

Berejiklian: "While there is no strong evidence about outdoor transmission, operationally we have said to the police what what do you need to ensure greater compliance and that is one of the things on their list"

Police powers are about theatrics of control not virus suppression

[Aman Kapoor @AmanK2042]

As @paddygibson said, "Police powers are about theatrics of control not virus suppression".

[Padraic Gibson @paddygibson]

Cops are using lockdown powers to harass staunch Gumbaynggirr activist Lizzie Jarrett who has led many BLM rallies in Sydney. This morning they came to her door for the FOURTH TIME in a week demanding to see inside and saying there were reports of breaches of health orders

[Padraic Gibson @paddygibson]

The 5km exercise rule is discriminatory bullshit in a city where the rich have bushland and beaches to enjoy nearby and most of the working class suburbs have been deforested and waterways turned into stormwater systems

[Padraic Gibson @paddygibson]

Proud of my comrades who organised a car convoy protest today demanding greater support for workers through the pandemic. The convoy was broken up by cops and at least 9 ppl fined $1k each. We need to find ways to take safe collective action and defend the right to protest

[Jenny Leong MP 梁珍妮 @jennyleong]

NSW Treasurer just said 'No lockouts or evictions during this time' for renters - this is such a crucial protection for the millions who rent their home in NSW #HousingIsAHumanRight

[Tawar Razaghi @TawarRazaghi]

South West Sydney factory worker who lives with FIVE other people in one household diligently following the rules…and the employer diligently trying to find all the loopholes to avoid sick pay.

[Padraic Gibson @paddygibson]

"We need to demand that Morrison act to reinstate payments at the original level of JobKeeper—this time extended to cover casuals and migrant workers—and make sure no worker is left behind."

Chester Hill this morning.

Feels like safety. Feels proportionate.
