Barnaby Joyce reportedly texted Paul Sakkal before #Insiders to explain his home-confiscation train-wreck interview.
He said it happened because the policy wasn't on the ON website.
No shit - One Nation policy detail doesn't exist.
This is the story. Do your job journalists.
Albania has officially drawn the
line, Sazan 'lsland is being cleared. In an stunning turn of events, Albanian authorities have
launched an active enforcement operation to kick
out foreign developers and private security
personnel occupying Sazan Island. The decisive
action marks a total collapse of the controversial €1.4 billion luxury real estate deal that aimed to turn the protected national marine reserve and
former military base into an exclusive private playground for global elites,
The eviction comes after four consecutive weeks of historic
hundred-thousand-strong protests that completely
shut down the capital city of Tirana, refusing to allow their native coastlines and ecologically sensitive wetlands to be privatized by foreign
investors, the Albanian public unified under a
single, unyielding demand: "Albania is not for sale, the courts faced with a historic political crisis, mounting
domestic fury, and a widening anti-corruption
investigation by special prosecutors (SPAK), the
government was forced to pivot, by deploying state forces to reclaim Sazan lsland, Albania has
sent a clear message to international billionaires
and foreign developers trying to bypass environmental protection laws, This historic victory for citizen-led activism proves that the collective voice of a nation can successfully overpower backroom corporate deals and protect sovereign land.
The people spoke, and the
government had to listen.
People keep telling me that Pauline Hanson stands up for ordinary Australians.
So let’s look at the record.
Pauline Hanson and One Nation have voted against or opposed:
• Increasing JobKeeper payments during the pandemic
• Raising the Newstart/JobSeeker rate for unemployed Australians
• A Royal Commission into violence, abuse and neglect of people with disability
• Making TAFE fee-free for more Australians
• Greater funding for universities and education
• Measures aimed at improving housing affordability
• Expanding access to subsidised childcare
• Measures aimed at reducing the gender pay gap
• Stronger protections for Aboriginal heritage sites
• Increasing diversity in media ownership
• Environmental protections for forests and threatened ecosystems
• Stronger action on gambling harm
At the same time, Hanson has supported:
• Tax cuts that disproportionately benefited higher-income earners
• Expanding welfare cashless debit card programs
• Greater political intervention in research funding decisions
• Reductions in some welfare supports
Then there was the infamous attempt by One Nation figures to seek support from the US gun lobby to weaken Australia’s gun laws after Port Arthur.
So the question remains:
What has Pauline Hanson actually delivered that has improved the lives of ordinary Australians?
After nearly three decades in politics, where are the major reforms? Where are the new hospitals, schools, infrastructure projects, wage increases, housing programs or worker protections she can point to?
A lot of outrage. A lot of headlines. A lot of blame.
But very little delivered.
Australians deserve more than slogans. They deserve results.
Australians lose $35 billion to gambling every year. In this episode we speak with Prof. Samantha Thomas who expose the industry’s "tobacco-style" playbook that targets kids and normalises addiction. We discuss the landmark Murphy Report’s push for a total ad ban, and why the government is choosing to protect vested interests over Australian kids.
Listen at the link in bio/below and email your MP letting them know you support a full gambling ad ban.

@thebluestshade@KayRoss96 Everything they throw at Meghan as an issue, can be sent back tenfold to the Toxic British Media & That Family. They're so (cough-racist) transparent.
🇬🇧 Media : "One of the problems with Meghan is that she's a divorcée and it's not a good look."
But when you're a white woman, they don't really see the problem. All the fake protocols, the fake outrage, only applied to Meghan.
For decades now, we have asked, urged, exhorted, pleaded with our politicians to bring about tax reform. So Treasurer Chalmers does it in this budget – and look at the hue and cry and the cries of woe and doomsday that have flowed.

Ivanka on Jared: "He really has almost no ego. It's to the point where I'm incredulous by it. I'll get upset about things for him, and he doesn't care. If someone criticizes him, and he doesn't know that person, it just doesn't affect him."
That's how you describe a sociopath.
Banning gambling ads to protect young Australians is not a left vs right issue.
We’re seeing yet again vested interests control of the major parties meaning the Australian people lose.
MPs across the Parliament support stronger action on gambling ads. If there was a conscience vote on a full ban, as was recommended by the Murphy Review, it would pass.
