We are so out of touch with nature and community...we need to reset the lot, incl the economy. The market should be a tool for the people! Finance professional

Australians wearing T-Shirt saying “F*ck Israel” get arrested immediately .

But Australians joining the IDF and committing warcrimes overseas only get investigated. No arrest made.

[Sam Connor @criprights]

Tears of anger. No, *rage*.

@Mark_Butler_MP you told Australians on @InsidersABC
that nobody would die because of these changes.

I want you to read these posts. Half an hour ago, a suicide farewell by a young woman, a wheelchair user, in an NDIS group.

You too, @AlboMP. @JEChalmers . ALL of you men.

Not a modelling report, not a bloody budget paper.

This is what we do every day. Spend our lives watching other disabled person’s lives unravelling in public. Waiting for their final messages.

We have done the usual mop up for you butchers. That’s what we community members do. Only this one locked down her profile and is probably dead in Logan, Qld. Do you care?

You can bet @PaulineHansonOz doesn’t.

If you’re in the group, over weeks and months, you can watch it happen. Because you are killing us every day. Another one today, in an Illawarra hospital, a ‘social’ admission.

Now this young woman.

First, her wheelchair funding was removed because the NDIS decided Functional Neurological Disorder wasn’t the “right” kind of disability for funding. She lost the wheelchair that allowed her to leave home.

Then came the isolation.

A broken second-hand wheelchair that caused pain. Fewer supports. Weeks alone. No friends. No community. No way to leave the house without someone else pushing them.

Their world became smaller and smaller.

They wrote about being trapped, losing hope, about feeling abandoned by both the health system and the NDIS.

Then they wrote:

“I don’t want to be here anymore.”

“This will be my last post ever.”

“It’s now time to say goodbye.”

I’ve just gotten off the phone from another young woman who attempted suicide in January after the cuts that took away her ability to live safely. Why only now? Because she’s been in a coma for four months.

Now there’s yet another disabled Australian whose life has been reduced to surviving alone inside four walls - this week.

And today, I don’t know whether they’re alive.

That sentence should stop every minister in their tracks.

You said nobody would die.

Can you honestly say that after reading this?

You have been warned and warned and warned. Do we need to haul corpses to the Labor conference to make you say no to your shitty cuts, even if you don’t actually care?

Because if you don’t care about us, you sure as shit should care about losing the election.

We have had enough. Blood is on your hands.

Israeli soldiers are reportedly torturing Dr Abu Safya --a pediatrician, for God's sake!

Without strong pressure on Israel, these may could be his last hours.

The thing is this:

No one can be surprised that Trump has disregarded and destroyed any credibility of FIFA regulations.

It was inevitable, especially once Infantino took a knee.

Trump’s been doing the same thing to international law.

Rules mean nothing to Trump, nor to the US for that matter. He considers himself above them all.

If we apply Trump’s international conduct to football, we should expect the US to sanction the referee for having the temerity to hand out the red, seize any US assets he may have had, and place tariffs on the referee’s country.

If not abduct their leader, and bomb their people.

And of course, demand a veto over any referee, or FIFA decision relating to the US.

This is what the world has allowed and enabled.

Infantino and FIFA is just the latest victim.

It’s not only FIFA, therefore, that needs reform.

🚨 🇦🇺Australian federal police at investigating a citizen who joins an Israeli terrorist organisation the IDF and committed war crimes.

The only reason he got caught is he posted the war crime on his own facebook.

It’s not illegal for Australians to commit genocide in Gaza by joining Israel but it should be. They should not walk among us.

[💧Mary Kostakidis @MaryKostakidis]

Australia’s use as a US military base being expanded in preparation for war with China, our biggest trading partner, one that has fuelled our nation’s prosperity and poses no military threat to our country (or the US for that matter but that is not what it’s about).

🚨Antisemitism Envoy has misled the Senate over her response to last month's neo-Nazi rally. Segal says she denounced it to the media that "did contact my office".
That is false.

This is so fkn stupid. It is nonsensical to suggest you can adhere to the Paris commitment while not having a target to reach it. The two positions don’t make sense under the Paris agreement or the legislation. Melissa Clarke was factual and correct. 2 things SAD finds impossible

[David Shoebridge @DavidShoebridge]

The fools who sold us $375 billion AUKUS nuclear submarines are now telling us they will cost more, a lot more. Their war plans with China, their surrender to Trump and their back of-the-envelope costings are all super dangerous. Don’t trust them.

[Craig F̶o̶s̶t̶e̶r̶ @Craig_Foster]

Abandoning our kids.

And theirs.

For fossil fuel donors.

It’s that simple.

Selling out the future.

Australia’s young generation will be asking, what use is democracy when science can be sold out for power, their future mortgaged to fill the pockets of the greedy, people that are already billionaires and so in love with wealth, they will leave it to our kids to clean up their mess.

Our kids will pay the price through exorbitant or no insurance, trillions in aftermath of natural disasters, endless immigration wars as mass movements of people need a safe place.

It’s not about Australia solving or even leading, as we so often hear, but about doing our part, to be in a stronger position to push the rest of the world.

In the end, the problem is that sun and wind are free and, when harnessed properly, not only leave the environment cleaner, but costs down.

Low costs = low profit.

For all the dressing up and endless pantomimes, this is just profit over people.

Disgraceful.

It says it all that NSW Police can violently pepper-spray people who are against the sale of weapons of war

Yet if you want to amass outside NSW Parliament shouting white supremacy slogans, @nswpolice will just stand back and quietly watch

Weirdly, too many people think climate change just means we'll each have to adapt to hotter weather and bigger storms. It's far worse than that. You can't air-condition crops.

No wheat, no rice. Mass starvation. Banking and governmental collapse.

Not generations hence. Soon

Ceasefire, Israeli style: Gaza bombed, Palestinians killed in the West Bank, more land taken in both.

The int’l community dares call it “peace.”

To those who’ve recently recognised the State of Palestine: you see, recognition means nothing if you do not protect it.
