violence is not the best way forward, BUT surely there are some exceptions?

@CroakeyNews @AMSANTaus @CatherineLiddl4 @NTCOSS Here are some facts about the organisation Sally Sievers leads. After almost fifty years in the NT, NTCOSS has only managed to scratch together 100 members. (So, that’s two new members for every year NTCOSS has been open.) NTCOSS has zero influence with decision-makers.

see a rebuttal by NTCOSS to my article in the NT Independent. It looks like it was written by a PR company because the leadership of NTCOSS are mostly dumb as dog shit. https://t.co/D7rROyaUvl

Here is my opinion article published just after the Country Liberal party election win in the NT, September 2024.https://t.co/KU0FVSq3RN

@NTCOSS Another day another new NTCOSS CEO. The sector knew something was up when NTCOSS dug up Wendy Morton and placed her back in over the Xmas break. Let’s hope they sick with her and not go in search for, yet another second-rate show pony lefty from Melbourne!

Very sad news that the much loved and respected Dallas Hayden has passed away, so soon after her beloved husband and former Governor General and Labor Leader, Bill. My sincere condolences to the Hayden family and the many friends of Dallas Hayden.

So sad to hear that the wonderful Tom Wilkinson has left us. He brought such a strong presence to every role he played. To have known him just a little was an honour https://t.co/4wkA6e8moz

@NTCOSS can you explain to NT tax payers why the NTCOSS 2020, 22 and 23 annual reports are not publicly available?

[I'm So Over This! 🇦🇺👸💘 @ImSooooOverIt]

No. That's a lie.
You're borrowing $10 Billion and setting up a NON government advisory board.

Or rather, a foreign 'stake holder' is coming to
tell us how to spend the money we have to pay back.

Each state has to be drowning in World Bank debt so there's no possible escape from globalisation.

I thought the constitution only allowed for good management of our income taxes?

1/2 "Dolly Parton once claimed “it costs me a lot of money to look this cheap”. There’s a type of political writing that always reminds me of this, wherein the writer uses a gold-star brain to construct an argument that is fundamentally dumb."

I visited ‘six tanks’ in Darwin today to have lunch with a friend. The disabled toilets were upstairs – no lift, escalator or ramp was available.

[Limp Rick @paulmrrs]

Does Australia really need a state-based version of ACOSS in every state and territory - its indulgent. Or is there a case for it? It's time to have a difficult conversation, I think.

[Limp Rick @paulmrrs]

@alexspring @ABCaustralia I have completely no idea what you mean.

[Limp Rick @paulmrrs]

@piersmorgan Piers has nailed it
