If you watch one thing today I strongly recommend it is this …. It is so good I will even forgive him for talking to @restisfootball ahead of @restispolitics

I’ve watched part or all of 3 @AFL matches today. All have involved fights between players with @FOXSportsAUS commentators salivating. If I wanted to watch violence and listen to old men excited by it I would choose another sport. #dreadful#saynotoviolence
Hey @abcnews can you let David and the rest of the World Cup coverage team know that the record goal scorer in the soccer World Cup is a woman? Marta Vieira da Silva. Perhaps he could specify he is talking about the men’s game and not whitewash women out of sporting history.
Hey @abcnews can someone explain to your political correspondent Lexie on AM that Goulburn has not been in the electorate of Hume for 12 months. Basic political journalism includes knowing electoral boundaries. #facts#auspol
Says a lot about conservative parties in Australia - Littleproud left the coalition on National Day of Mourning and Angus Taylor (@AngusTaylorMP) launches his leadership bid on Closing the Gap day. All focussed on themselves not Australians that need our support. #Auspol2026

Netanyahu says he will “finish the job.” Which means blow up and then level every Palestinian house in Gaza and force families to struggle in unbearable heat to an unsanitary tent city to await forced evacuation to Somalia or Libya.
Hey @abcnews@Optus - you realise that Kerry Schott ceased to be CEO of Sydney Water 14 years ago, don’t you? And that she’s 81 years old. Not exactly the modern or relevant qualities for such an important review.
🚨NEWS: when asked why Sadiq khan wasn’t at the Royal banquet on his state visit
President Trump says : “I didn’t want him there, I asked for him not to be there, I don’t want that”
Sadiq Khan the mayor of London wasn’t welcomed, and he did not attend.
An awkward start to the state visit: the campaign group Led By Donkeys are projecting images of Donald Trump together with Jeffrey Epstein onto Windsor Castle:
As we discuss on @RestIsPolitics today when the King goes to Highgrove he has a couple of cars and maybe a motor bike outrider or two. This guy comes for a holiday and has 23 cars and a bike squad traipsing around, and the same again at his next port of call. It’s about status and bullshit
