@Wendy_Bacon @Bronwyn06551888 @noplaceforsheep They didn’t when labor was in opposition. Labor got virtually no air time.

A man was found guilty in a court of law of sexually assaulting a woman and then repeatedly defaming her.

Many of you are planning on voting for him for president.

What exactly is wrong with you?

Throughout Australia, Labor holds 343 seats or 63%, while LNP holds only 205, or 37%. The LNP holds one government out of nine (Tasmania). And they lost again in #DunkleyByelection. So why does every media outlets frame the news from the LNP perspective? #AUSPOL

[Bernard Keane @BernardKeane]

Never forget the Outrage Right and its media arm don't want to fix issues like housing, inflation or energy. They want people unhappy and uncertain, angry and afraid, because they make money from that. The last thing they want is good governments actually dealing with problems.

[David Pocock @DavidPocock]

A pleasure working with @WilkieMP to shine a light on really concerning allegations of coal quality fraud.

The starting point for the media to find a better way to report in this post-truth age is to recognise that balance doesn’t include giving traction to lies.

I feel shaken, fearful and distressed EVERY WAKING MOMENT OF MY LIFE due to the #FossilFuel industries blatant disregard for future generations and the natural world #ClimateActionNow #4Corners

[Victoria Fielding @DrVicFielding]

Why do journalists constantly refer to Dan Andrews through pejorative descriptions like ‘divisive’ and ‘polarising’ when they never referred to Scott Morrison - ousted PM - in this way, nor indeed Peter Dutton who has divided and polarised Australia with his ‘no’ campaign?

[Dr Monique Ryan MP @Mon4Kooyong]

If Clive Palmer is a No, I’m voting Yes.

[Mark Humphries @markhumphries]

Worth remembering this while Clive Palmer pledges $2 million to the Voice’s No campaign.

‘As Australians embrace ⁦@TheMatildas⁩ ..it could be that they’re supporting something even more significant..’

The right to be seen, heard, represented, believed, protected, supported, invested in, elevated.

Equality.

We're having the hottest July in 120,000 years, and are amid a sea ice event that should happen once every 7 million years.

Instead of approving new coal mines, we need real climate action that recognises we're in a climate emergency.

[Christine Milne AO @ChristineMilne]

Today Dr Colette Harmsen was jailed for three months for peacefully defending Tasmania’s native forests. Colette was protesting the logging of habitat for swift parrots, masked owls and Tas devils. The real criminals are the LNP/Lab MPs supporting logging and anti protest laws.

[The Umwelt @TheUmwelt]

@Mon4Kooyong Thanks for defending the environment. 👏👏💚💚

[Dr Monique Ryan MP @Mon4Kooyong]

This is the Albanese’s govt’s biggest test yet.

Woodside’s Pilbara extension would generate 10 times more emissions annually than the rest of the country combined.

This would be our biggest global contribution to climate change.

It must be stopped. https://t.co/UNZxpICQ7W

[Jamie Henn @jamieclimate]

These climate disasters aren't tragedies, they're crimes.

The fossil fuel industry knew decades ago that this is what their pollution was causing, so they spent billions to lie to the public and block climate action.

Time to make polluters pay.

There really is no need to ever seek a comment from Jeff Kennett

#RobodebtRC report coming this Friday. I couldn’t more eager for the release of Commissioner Catherine Holmes’ work. Nobody’s BS got past this Commissioner, & she was also able to show an incredible kindness to those affected by the deadly scheme. What a Great Commissioner ❤️
