“We can’t tinker and dither.”
Maybe it’s a good thing @AustralianLabor factional forces ousted Ed Husic from the ministry. With the shackles of Cabinet solidarity lifted, he’s speaking some common sense on gas. #auspol https://t.co/6QCR3RWr0n
In an interview with Rick Morton, the Commonwealth ombudsman has slammed the government's 'robodebt'-style approach to welfare compliance. https://t.co/ZSIHcungtT
More research highlights the need to implement the recommendations of the Murphy Report to reduce gambling harm.
“This government does a lot of bragging about everything it has done for gambling consumer protection, but those measures were only ever designed to be first steps,” - Lauren Levin, gambling expert and consumer advocate.

Your periodic reminder to support independent media. I broke the Parliament Sports Club story a fortnight ago via @crikey_news and did a podcast on it with @7ampodcast, and it was referencing that story in Estimates this week that got David Pocock kicked out of the club.
Could the @PressClubAust be less embarrassing and less complicit in the genocide of Palestine/the West's decline into overt fascism, pretty, pretty, pretty please? 🙏 Cancelling @ChrisLynnHedges talk on the betrayal of Palestinian journalists only proves his point. Truly pathetic
🔴 Santos Limited has racked up a 10th straight year of zero corporate tax payments from $48 billion in sales.
🔴 Ichthys LNG Pty Ltd paid zero corporate tax for the 6th year running, from $43 billion in sales.

OK, everyone else has known that it’s a genocide for almost two years. Here it is confirmed – Israel is committing genocide in Gaza – no more words of “concern” or selling weapons behind the scenes. Israel needs to be stopped. #IsraelGenocide
"We're telling 20 year olds to worry about superannuation they won't get until 2065.
"This report is saying there are catastrophic risks coming right now, way before you need your super."

The Government finally released the Climate Risk Assessment report, and it's damning.
1.5 million Australians living on the coastline are under threat of rising sea levels by 2050!
But the Govt STILL approved extending the North West Shelf gas project
#auspol
The final approval of the 45-year expansion of Woodside’s North West Shelf gas export terminal is equivalent to building 12 new coal power stations.
It will drive up energy prices and is the greatest giveaway of Australian natural resources ever.

Today's final approval of the North West Shelf is a climate, economic, and energy security disaster.
Australia Institute analysis shows the 45-year expansion is equivalent to building 12 new coal power stations.

Congratulations to Senator @DavidPocock for the most genuine (and appropriate) reaction to a question time answer that I’ve seen in a long while. #FOI#auspol
"We have a government telling us that we have to continue to open up new gas projects because Japan desperately needs our gas. When Japan is now exporting more gas than we send."
"We're being conned here."
Senator @DavidPocock at our 2025 Climate Integrity Summit #auspol
I am heartened to hear that no conviction has been recorded against ATO whistleblower Richard Boyle. However, it should never have come to this because he should never have been charged for simply doing the right thing #auspol#politas
It’s 2yrs since the Robodebt Royal Commission & we are yet to see the Fed Gov legislate to stop it happening again. Well, I’ve now done the work for them & urge the Gov to come to the table on these reforms. We cannot allow a repeat of this shameful part of Aus history #auspol
