This photo of Porthcawl, Wales, at the top of the BBC homepage clearly shows people lining up to watch the big waves during a red weather alert. Clowns. Right next to the RNLI lifeboat station, too - the people who'll have to risk their lives if they get swept in.

Dear @abcnews,
OL Peter Dutton lies, rptedly. @AapFactcheck reports his lies. 👇 Yet you platform him (w/o correction or critique) on a daily basis. You are actively knowingly promoting disinformation. This is a blatant breach of the ABC Charter. 😠 #auspol#JournalismMatters
To answer @SenPaterson juvenile post here is the answers
1. No evidence has been provided to say it’s terrorism related
2. See point 1
3. The LNP are not in govt and again no raise in the terror alter has been given.
4. Just fuck off and stop the scaremongering
I can't stand the way the men in the Pelicot trial get to tell everyone about their sad childhoods, as if now is the time and place. At what point is a man's complete and utter lack of empathy for a woman enough for us to say "no - all of our compassion is for her"?
I didn’t see any LNP members calling for the PM to declare a terrorist attack when a Mosque was firebombed? @SenPaterson why not? Where’s your level of fair standards?

In June, I was told of a woman who died in suspicious circumstances in the ACT.
I could not post about her at the time as it was unclear how she died or if her death was caused by another person.
Yesterday, ACT Police announced they had charged a man with her manslaughter.
She is the 95th Australian woman killed in 2024.
The woman was given a dose of heroin, reportedly at her request. As a result she became unconscious. The man is alleged to have not provided her with lifesaving help, including failing to administer Narcan - an opioid reversal drug. This would have saved her life. She was eventually taken to hospital but it was too late.
My remit has always been to document ALL women lost acts of murder, manslaughter, neglect and any other unlawful and foreseeable action endangering a woman's life.
This is something I've always been clear about - but I know many people do not understand this.
While I appreciate some will criticise me heavily for counting this women, I simply will not leave her behind because she does not fall neatly into a particular violence category.
So please, think before you @ me.

@IRanalyst The use of the terrible events in Gaza as a divisive political attack by the #LiberalParty on Labor is abhorrent. #Frydenberg and #Dutton are shameful opportunists of the worst kind.

BUYERS REMORSE!
This is Jason Zugai, VP of the Steel Workers Union, speaking at a Trump rally during the campaign. Earlier this week Trump announced he will block the US Steel- Nippon deal.
"For me, yeah, very frustrated with the news. He lied to us. It's like a gut punch."
The lopsided outrage over the Melbourne synagogue fire is highlighted by the ABC’s Laura Tingle.
“It is worth noting the very different treatment by our politicians of Muslim communities subject to similar attacks over the past 10 years.
“A 2021 study of 75 mosques across Australia by Charles Sturt University found that more than half (58.2 per cent) of participating mosques (or worshippers at them) had experienced targeted violence between 2014 and 2019.
“The political outrage over that seems much more muted, to say the least.
“We may be in the early stages of an election campaign, but we deserve better from our political leaders on such a deeply troubling issue.”
How the fuck do we live in a world where the media outrage over one guy being shot is now eleventy-billion times greater than the outrage over fifty thousand children being bombed to smithereens?

"The LNP will be voted out, but we’ll still be here, and we’ll still be fighting." First thing the Crisafulli govt does is oppose Indigenous Queenslanders by cowardly placing the Path to Treaty repeal inside the Olympics bill & motioning it urgent. #qldpol https://t.co/sU7XlbMiq3
Gout Gout was unstoppable today.
He ran 10.04 seconds in a heat of the Australian All-Schools Championships for the 100m sprint.
It’s the fourth fastest an Australian has ever run in the sprint.
You’ve made Queensland proud.
BL finger wagging rude, threatening, admonishing and reprimanding, as if speaking to a subordinate , as is lowered head & eyes glaring to intimidate. And that’s not inclusive of the verbal abuse . Who lost control? She’s not a child. She’s the Victoria Premier #JacintaAllan .
