@TheAusInstitute @stephhodginsmay Please keep up the pressure with this campaign. Fed Labor not acting in the national interest. No massive corporate profits while Aussies suffer!

[Loclan Mackenzie @LoclanMac]

@DavidPocock Then govt should get a corresponding stake in the company and the profits! Put an end to corporate welfare and kickbacks to politicians.

@MFWitches Think this needs to be your next campaign… who in media/govt has been unduly influenced? https://t.co/9LgZ9gW2z0

Australia has some of the most sweeping foreign interference laws on the books — yet the Israel lobby operates openly, across both major parties, largely undisclosed and unregistered as a foreign principal. Every dollar, every trip, every fundraiser, every parliamentarian who has taken AIJAC money or boarded a Rambam program flight needs to be on the public record. If this were China or Iran running parliamentary mateship groups and flying politicians to Beijing and Tehran on all-expenses-paid tours, we would call it what it is. Disclosure. Now. All. Of. It.

It seems like the pid system isn’t coping very well with tunnel delays - it didn’t know the train that forms it was cancelled - an there wasn’t any announcement on the platforms (either human or not) that it had been - it just dropped off the screens without any addressing.

[Loclan Mackenzie @LoclanMac]

Total chaos at @metrotrains Footscray station due to a fault 15km away, not even in the tunnel. PIDs completely useless, trains being cancelled as they arrive on the platform, a few belatedly made announcements with contradictory info, station staff as uninformed as we are.

[Loclan Mackenzie @LoclanMac]

Clearly @metrotrains needs better management and passenger communication in the event of a disruption. A single incident shouldn’t affect a whole line.

@TrueBelievers15 My most anti-car opinion: once NEL is fully operational, they should close Elliot Ave to through traffic at Royal Pde and Flemington Pde. Go around!

@myGovau Seems to be all working fine today, thanks! 🙂

@myGovau Are there any known technical issues with the online portal today? For some reason I’m not receiving 2FA SMS codes.

@ellensandell we need your help to rein in the lawless FFMV – to save old growth forest for wildlife and carbon sinks

Why aren’t @ConservationReg dealing with these incidents?

If a private landholder did this they would go to jail.
Jail.
What aspect of "abide by all relevant legislation" has been blacked out in these State public service employees employment contracts?

Take note @cityofmelbourne @YarraCouncil

[Harrison @hwcycles]

Drivers park in bike lanes every day in Melbourne but council officers never get there in time to fine the offending drivers so it’s almost not worth reporting.

No deterrent or penalty means these drivers continue to block rider access to bike lanes.
