Still unsure how you will vote in the upcoming referendum? This podcast from the Sydney Writers Festival last month with @thomasmayo23 and Kerry O’Brien is clear and concise. A must listen.

Tim Wilson refuses to declare shares on his parliamentary register. Not a good look for a shadow treasurer. #auspol https://t.co/YLROjIzEp3

Ahead of Pauline Hanson taking the microphone at the National Press Club, Australians should know this

Journalist Margo Kingston was organised a few weeks back to ask the first Q - then was phoned yesterday and told she could no longer ask any Qs because they "had no time left"

We're not crying, you're crying 🥹🇦🇺 Socceroos winger Awer Mabil just dropped the most special message at the World Cup.

After the squad made a viral video about where they come from, the winger - who was born in a Kenyan refugee camp - explains what makes Australia 'the best country in the world': 'Many different backgrounds. One jersey.'

This is what the Socceroos are all about.

In Refugee Week, these are beautiful words from a special footballer and person.

No one gets to 38 weeks and changes their mind. Late term abortions happen because either the baby or the mother won’t survive. To politicise abortion is shameful. #Hanson #NPC

Tim Wilson’s multimillionaire cousin Geoff Wilson torched for pushing Musk’s SpaceX as a solid investment
Nick McKim “It’s a Ponzi scheme Mr Wilson”💥
Wilson concedes it “could well be” a Ponzi scheme but pushes it anyway coz it’s “exciting!”🙄
And Sky call him an expert?#auspol

She's right

[Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn]

It is beyond disgraceful that the 'Great Israeli Real Estate' event was allowed to go ahead.

Once again, the government has exposed its flagrant contempt for international law as well as its shameful complicity in Israel’s illegal occupation.

Pauline Hanson says she tells it like it is.

But her record says otherwise.

She’s opposed wage rises, affordable childcare, higher pensions and affordable housing measures – every time working Australians needed someone to fight for them.

We thought someone should say it plainly. So we did.

Bullshit, Pauline.

The Lady Chief Justice: Palestine Action was not a direct action civil disobedience protest group like the suffragettes, but used violence to destroy property

The suffragettes burned down country houses & train stations, bombed churches & sent letter bombs to politicians.

Journalist Janine di Giovanni:

"If a missile hits a hospital in Ukraine,
Europe calls it a war crime."

"But if missiles hit a hospital in Gaza and 100 people die, it’s Israel's right to defend itself."

Raf Epstein calls out blatant favouritism media gives Pauline Hanson
“She could never say ‘show me the good Jews”
“She says that about Muslims”
“If she said that about Jews there’d be a discussion on this couch whether or not she should be prosecuted under hate laws”💥🎯 #auspol

WTF!!!!!

Trump is f-cking using Honor Guards at a UFC event on the Lincoln Memorial.

No this is NOT ok. Don’t you dare call yourself a “patriot” while supporting this crap.

[Rep. Melanie Stansbury @Rep_Stansbury]

This is Trump’s Watergate.

Today, the @nytimes released a truly stunning report on the Epstein cover-up by the White House. 

Collusion, breaking the law, evading subpoenas—it’s all in there:
- Trump quashing the files
- The VP, COS, DOJ, FBI, and others colluding in the Situation Room to stop their release and compliance
- Officials lying to the public 
- Admin in-fighting and exits
- Officials who appeared in front of Congress during this time

Read the report here: https://t.co/prgyF2Isfg

Fun fact. For the 1966 World Cup, England debated denying visas for North Korea. FIFA responded that if any players from any teams were denied visas,they would relocate the World Cup, even at the last minute.

[Ounka @OunkaOnX]

Richard Burgon just exposed the most glaring double standard in British policy

"Imagine if this weekend in London there was a Russian real estate event selling Ukrainian land. The government would ban it immediately.

Instead, we have an Israeli real estate event openly advertising the illegal sale of land in occupied Palestinian territories. The government recognizes Palestine. Why isn't this banned?"

[D Prasanth Nair @DPrasanthNair]

The famous incident from the 2003 Carlsberg Cup, where Danish midfielder Morten Wieghorst intentionally missed a penalty against Iran.

The referee had awarded the penalty because an Iranian defender caught the ball with his hands inside the box, mistakenly thinking he had heard the half-time whistle.Since the penalty was awarded due to a misunderstanding, Wieghorst consulted his coach and deliberately fired his shot wide as a display of sportsmanship, an act for which he later won an Olympic Committee Fair Play Award.
Football is great
