@AaronWar_ Why is their chance so high given they are 7th among the 3rd ranked teams and the five below them are yet to play?

For the past 3 weeks, I have been trying to get an op-ed published at the ABC. The suspicion has long been that the ABC is ideologically captured but when the editorial director assured Senators during the recent Estimates that ABC does publish diverse views, I said let’s see…

Do you find yourself disagreeing with everything Pauline Hanson says? According to Oliver Jacques, you may be suffering from Hanson Derangement Syndrome. Take this quick test to see whether the way you react is actually helping her more than hurting her https://t.co/vaUiH9PL5t

TalkSPORT deleted this tweet after they got heavily criticised.

What the US is doing is pure racism. Omar Artan was even issued a diplomatic visa because there were concerns about entry restrictions into the facist country.

There has always been freedom of movement for fans and officials at the World Cup. If a host country can not guarantee that, it should not be allowed to host the tournament.

The Coalition has blamed Labor for abandoning Inland Rail. But was it doomed from the start? Oliver Jacques weighs in https://t.co/vhILjDQofS

How One Nation bypassed media and conquered Facebook in its political rise via @crikey_news https://t.co/wHlqcjplkY
"...The lesson from Farrer is not that Australians have embraced One Nation’s policies. It’s that the party knows how to communicate better than its opponents..."

[Crikey @crikey_news]

One Nation’s superior use of social media and its ability to bypass the scrutiny of journalists were key to its success in Farrer, writes Oliver Jaques.

Fantastic to see @AlanKohler on Insiders this morning.
Facts, insights and ideas on the economy that is always absent from the show.
They need an economist with knowledge on the show each week to offset the political mamby-pamby that tends to dominate

[1️⃣ Sustainable Australia Party @VoteSustainable]

Lucas Ellis, who is running for the minor party Sustainable Australia [in the Farrer By-election], was more direct in his support for reform. “We would advocate for abolishing negative gearing and capital gains tax discounts, grandfathering existing arrangements..."

Australia's anti-adoption response to the Stolen Generation is harming vulnerable children. Put bluntly the "Child Protection" system is failing kids. https://t.co/GlPpqv954f

[Region Riverina @RegionRiverina]

A new Farrer poll shows a razor-thin race - but it’s the huge gender divide that’s turning heads. So who's really ahead? Will the Liberals help One Nation? And why has GetUp entered the race? https://t.co/F27TmfK2Py

I questioned candidates on Climate 200, Gina Rineheat, preference deals and "good Muslims" at a lively Farrer by-election debate https://t.co/Gsi0M3RXY9

BREAKING: US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee tells Tucker Carlson that Israel has the Biblical right to take over all of the Middle East.

“It would be fine if they took it all.”

Implicit here is a false binary where the only options are enforcing immigration law in the particular way the Trump administration is doing it, or nullifying it. Obviously, there are other options, like enforcing the law in a more prudent, less needlessly provocative, more disciplined, and less deadly manner. If tax law was being enforced in this manner you'd be apoplectic.

I note you are a Christian. May I ask what you think Jesus would make of the ICE agent, who shot the woman in the face three times, after calling her "a fucking bitch."?

[Max Burns @themaxburns]

I don't want to hear another sanctimonious word from the Republicans who accused Democrats of not showing enough sadness when Charlie Kirk died.

Donald Trump's message about Rob and Michele Reiner's death is a monstrosity.
