Australia’s “antisemitism envoy” seems to believe it is her job to lie and sow misinformation in order to facilitate a genocide. Perhaps that really is her job.

🇦🇺 Australia's Special Envoy to Combat Antisemitism Jillian Segal told a national inquiry in July that it was "well-known and even accepted by the United Nations" that Gaza's death toll is "grossly inflated."

The UN rejected that. "Independent validation of subsets of the data has found no significant discrepancies," UN Secretary General spokesperson Stéphane Dujarric has said.

She was pressed on the claim by Greens Senator David Shoebridge at a Senate hearing today ⬇️

La sera del 27 ottobre 1962 veniva ucciso Enrico Mattei mentre si trovava in volo diretto a Milano.

Non si trattò di un incidente, ma di un attentato organizzato dai servizi segreti occidentali con la collaborazione di settori delle istituzioni italiane.

🇫🇷 “Bordering on Mockery” / “A Full-Blown Parade of Hypocrites”

Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu offered students a package of concessions on Monday that student groups rejected immediately, vowing to keep protesting, LCP reported.

The offer reportedly included:

🔹 Replacing Parcoursup, France's centralized university admissions system, in 2028
🔹 15,000 new places in higher education and scholarships indexed to inflation
🔹 A cap of 28 students in 10th-grade classes from 2027
🔹 €4 billion in loans to renovate schools and €1 billion for universities

Louis Letoublon, vice president of the high school group Les Lycéens!, called the 15,000 places "bordering on mockery," and the Union étudiante gave Lecornu "0/10."

Groups were also angered that Lecornu met education influencers that morning, one of whom announced the measures on TV before the unions were received. UNEF's Manon Moret called it "scandalous," LCP reported.

Student unions are demanding 10 measures worth €10 billion and plan to march again Saturday alongside the Yellow Vests, then join a national strike on Nov. 5.

🇦🇪 NEW: Asked whether she would continue rejecting UN findings on the UAE’s role in fueling Sudan’s war if chosen to lead the United Nations, Lana Nusseibeh said questions about the UAE should be directed elsewhere.

During a UN town hall on Tuesday, Yona Diamond of the Raoul Wallenberg Centre for Human Rights, confronted Nusseibeh over her repeated denials of UAE weapons and support to Sudan’s Rapid Support Forces (RSF), asking how she could lead an organization whose own findings she has rejected.

Nusseibeh, UAE’s Minister of State, responded that she had taken leave from her position as a UAE minister and declared: “I refer any questions about the UAE to the UAE representation.”

She then spent more than a minute outlining her commitment to ending Sudan’s war, calling it the “litmus test” for the next UN chief, without addressing her past denials or whether she accepted the UN’s findings.

تدرون شنو أكثر شي مضحك بالبالون دور 2021؟

مو قضية إنهم زرفوا ليفا سنتين على التوالي وب2021 صرّفوه بصحن وهو معادل رقم كريستيانو القياسي (69 هدف)

المضحك انو ميسي فاز بالجائزة بسبب فوزه بالكوبا وكونه أفضل لاعب بالبطولة، بس قبل 5 سنوات اليكسيس سانشيز بنفس الإنجاز ماترّشح حتى!

Labour's 2024 Manifesto said that it was 'discriminatory' to have different minimum wage rates for younger and older workers. They pledged to abolish 'discriminatory age bands.' Healey has reneged - and Labour has now broken another promise. Stupid, short-sighted stuff.

The Govt's new aged care algorithm has been assessed as neither fair nor consistent. The Govt must listen to experts and ensure they don't pursue another robodebt-style automation designed to cut costs at the expense of desperately-needed support #auspol

A lot of positive feedback on the below post — but so many still believes that United have paid high wages to players under the Glazers.

It’s simply not true, they never have. It is an indisputable fact readily available online. 👇

The Glazer’s PR should however get a bonus.

Meanwhile, they've acted on NONE of the Robodebt Royal Commission's recommendations for legislative reform in over 3 years, including to restore the normal statute of limitation of 6 years to social security debts.

Why wouldn't they do that? This is why.
