@AshtonHurn And what’s your solution?

[Aussie Politics @aus_policy]

@alpsa Another distraction from the health and economic crisis we are in. Present some alternatives please @alpsa rather than getting involved in the gossip pages

If, as a few muppets are suggesting, China is a military threat to the region & Australia, why is the govt happy for us to export iron ore, copper, coal, rare earths, coal, chemicals etc to China?
Enabling them to can make their tanks & their bombs & their bombs & their guns?

Australia decided on time zones when only 2 towns in the nation had electric street lights. 0 had home electricity. We don’t need morning light to stop horse and carriage accidents anymore. Make DST permanent so we can always have sunlight in the evening, when it’s most needed.

@Senator_Patrick Where’s the link to this research?

[Nat Cook MP @NatCookMP]

While other state governments talk in thousands of public houses being built the SA Liberals plan is a paltry 192 this year! What a joke.

Leonard also had a comment on the budget:
Everybody knows that the dice are loaded
Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed
Everybody knows that the war is over
Everybody knows the good guys lost
The poor stay poor, the rich get rich
That's how it goes

The charges against #JulianAssange are a farce. Aust LNP Govt & ALP Oppn need to stand for something & demand the UK & US drop the show trial in London. Assange is a hero, not a villain. #NoUSExtradition #FreeJulianAssange #politas #auspol

What's in a smile? To someone thinking about suicide, it can be the first step towards life.

#WorldSuicidePreventionDay is September 10. Look around and #StepCloser.

Look, I’ll level with you. The reason we keep voting against establishing an anti-corruption body is because we are corrupt.

[Rex Patrick @MrRexPatrick]

Action is needed to protect Australia's power grid from foreign disruption. We need to remove companies controlled or significantly influenced by the Chinese Government. Power equipment made in #China may involve unacceptable risk. #auspol #ausdef https://t.co/3PnaJ96OXS

[Andrew Yang🧢⬆️🇺🇸 @AndrewYang]

Why is it again that I can pay a parking ticket online, apply for a passport and conduct personal financial transactions but I can’t vote the same way?

[Rex Patrick @MrRexPatrick]

Aussie steel or foreign steal? When it comes to projects like the SA-NSW Interconnector and @snowyhydro 2.0, or any significant infrastructure project for that matter, the answer is obvious. #auspol https://t.co/5RNvWfz24b

Really great book Stephanie.

[Andrew Wilkie MP @WilkieMP]

The Federal Government has shut down debate in the Parliament 28 times since last Wednesday. Democracy is dead. #auspol #politas

[Bruce Williams @Bruceneeds2know]

A secret trial, where evidence is suppressed and citizens can be secretly jailed, Stalin-style....all to protect Howard and Downer.
