People shouldn’t be shocked Pauline Hanson is mean. She's never hidden it. She voted against free TAFE, pension increases, affordable housing and stronger workplace protections. Every one of those votes made someone's life harder. None of them made yours easier.

I've heard some stupid ideas put up by the conservatives, but this one is a doozy!
All it will do is encourage more smoking & vaping & more illness & deaths.
What about channeling existing excise into combating the criminals doing the cheap fags? 🙄🙄🙄

Unbelievable shit #auspol

Sigh. The reason @JacintaAllanMP got rolled yesterday was because Rupert Murdoch is primarily a mining oligarch who uses a media company as his marketing arm and who has thus long wanted to make even more profit by legalising fracking in Victoria, which he’d be able to do if the LNP got into power.

He’s tried for years to get Labor out in Victoria but wasn’t able to potentially do so till he was able to bash Allan even more than he did Andrews using misogyny as an extra tool.

So once again and as always for women, it’s the conscious and sometimes unconscious sexism so many people have grown up with which conspired to destroy a woman leader far more effectively than could have happened to a man.

Why the secrecy ? Because in Victoria there’s one law for the rich and famous and another one for everyone else. It’s a disgrace. https://t.co/U11tDxIkce

4 women have been killed in 3 days by male violence.
This is a national emergency
42 women this year.
227 women have been killed since January 2024
More than all Australians killed by one punch, terrorism, sharks, home invasions, knife, arson, and machete attacks combined

[Labor Against War @LabAgainstWar]

Former Labor foreign ministers @BobjCarr and Gareth Evans say Australia should abandon AUKUS and reconsider alliance with the United States.

[Doug Cameron @DougCameron51]

Calling it as it is!
Bob Carr, Gareth Evans and thousands of Labor party members understand how dangerous, expensive and all consuming the dumb AUKUS rip off is.
Australia can play a massively more constructive role pursuing peace not funding the US and UK war machines.

[Doug Cameron @DougCameron51]

More AUKUS secrecy and political manipulation by Trump as we dance to the tune of the US military industrial complex. Champagne corks popping as the bank accounts of lobbyists, former politicians, defence personnel and public servants burst with AUKUS $s. Militarism gone mad!

[Doug Cameron @DougCameron51]

What a surprise! Trump, according to Richard Marles is “completely supportive” of AUKUS,
We abandon our sovereignty, sign a one sided dud deal, subsidise the US and UK military industrial establishments, build public housing for US troops, antagonise China.
What a deal for Trump!

AUKUS - The greatest Transfer of Sovereignty & Wealth to a Foreign Power in Australian History.

The actions of @Macquarie_Uni are deplorable. They have also been dragged in front of Fair Work. The @NTEUnion uncovered they decided to go “all the way” in forcing 65 highly skilled ppl out of work when they could have achieved their objectives without this pain

[Tony Windsor @TonyHWindsor]

The US President conspired with Netanyahu to bomb Doha.
The US has a major military base there.
Time to shelf AUKUS…it will only be a magnet for conflict with no guarantee of delivery or protection.

[Arthur Rorris @ArthurRorris]

If Angus Taylor wants to defend the Netanyahu regime then he needs to be called as an apologist for war criminals. I took that opportunity this morning on ABCRadio.

NSW Left marching tomorrow. Wonder how many Left federal MP’s will join the R&F?

[Australian Services Union @asu_nsw_act]

BREAKING: Supreme Court has approved our right to protest.

Join the ASU contingent at Lang Park to march across the Harbour Bridge.

We match for humanity. We march for peace. We march for Gaza.

[Doug Cameron @DougCameron51]

So members of the Marles faction are reported in the AFR to be pushing back against recognition of Palestine and claiming some on the Right have “gone soft”. Unbelievable claptrap. Get out of the Trump/Netanyahu fan club and stand up for morality, decency and peace.
