@amymcquire @JJKALE2 @NourHaydar Great loss to the ABC-she is a fantastic talent.

@SatPaper Lets see what Labor actually does, rather than what they say. They are on record as being big boosters of their donors in the gas industry.

@GreenJ @auspoldaily Indeed....Maybe he needs to read more deeply in the history of his Catholic faith. Pre-reformation and pre-enlightenment, the Catholic church was an illiberal institution, brooking no dissent. It was consistently resistant to the rise of liberalism

@lesstenny We have preferential voting so who is being criticised here? Maybe like me they live in a solidly blue electorate so voting 1 for a teal or independent is more strategic than for the ALP. Still support an ALP win, still disappointed with Albo now.

@VeronikaSain @DingoResearch There is very little interest in brumbies by the horse industry because they are small and wild. They need skilled training and are too small for most riders except kids. Rehomers often give them away. Not a viable solution for 1000s needing homes.

[It's a strange world @Itsastrange]

@BrettPage72 @DingoResearch Yes, by getting in the way of acting sooner, the so called brumby lovers contribued to this situation where many more horses will now need to be killed. So much for genuinely caring for them.

@elpresto777 @DingoResearch Should be no more than 300. In NZ, they keep their feral population at 300 and can manage that with mustering excess animals everybtwo years. 3000 means constant shooting and trapping in perpetuity.

[It's a strange world @Itsastrange]

@CottonPru @DingoResearch Me too. Lifelong horse owner. They belong in paddocks where they can be properly cared for. Not fragile national parks.

[It's a strange world @Itsastrange]

@Geologi07020687 @DingoResearch @AlboMP Trapping and shipping wild, unhandled horses overseas would be terribly inhumane, exposing them to injury, fear, stress and possibly mistreatment. Skilled shooting means instant death, nothing cruel about that.

@BillKristol The human heart has been pretty murderous throughout recorded history. So seems a simple proposition to make it harder for hearts to act on their murderous inclinations by limiting access to weapons of war, given there will always be hearts willing to commit murder.

[It's a strange world @Itsastrange]

@NickFeik The alternative is worse.

[It's a strange world @Itsastrange]

@TheAusInstitute @LachlanClohesy Yep, grant applications put Tolstoy to shame for complexity and length but without the soaring language or piercing insights into anything other than the triumph of managerialism and neo-liberal economic drivel. God-forbid researchers get the time to actually research

[It's a strange world @Itsastrange]

@DingoResearch @Gergyl Yes it has. Horses dying slow deaths from starvation during the last drought genuinely cruel. Shooting death far more humane. More horses = more animals to suffer. Plus the terrible effects on native species by horses.

@JaneCaro @MaralynParker Well past time for religious organisations to stop delivering essential public services such as hospital care. State governments should follow ACT's lead to take back control. We deserve the health care we need, not whatever a religious group getting taxpayer dollars decides

@Gbutterfly19 @cwaofnsw Where do cats do the most damage?- in arid and semi arid areas. Cat containment won't do much there. Cats should be managed humanely. Cat curfews won't stop habit loss effects on species decline. Bigger picture needed.

[It's a strange world @Itsastrange]

@Gbutterfly19 @cwaofnsw How about stopping the destruction of intact complex vegetation. Cats or no, nothing survives that carnage. Nice cropping out the trap in the photo.

This is the best short description of Australian climate efforts I’ve seen.

[It's a strange world @Itsastrange]

@tanya_plibersek Excellent lobbying effort. Now to approve a few more coal mines and pretend all is well. See how the reef fares after this coming hot summer shall we.

[It's a strange world @Itsastrange]

@crikey_news @mdavisqlder What's worse- calling out racism or racism itself? Apparently the biggest outrage is the former. How thin skinned the No campaign is. And they obviously don't read their own social media which is racism central.
