@SharazDavid A NZ newspaper article, from around the time that Morrison was creating havoc in the NZ Tourism body, described him as a cross between 'Rasputin and Crocodile Dundee'. Still an apt description. (Robodebt, refugees, Indue card, Michael Towke, Vaccine debacle; #ScottyFromPhotoOps
Absolutely no normal person on earth would be surprised to hear that workers aren’t responsible for inflation, and that the profits of the bosses are - but every single institution in the country will still blame (and punish) workers for it 🤷♂️
Australia, you are being scammed! @ieefa_institute shows Japanese export 40% of Aussie gas exports. Yep, they on-sell our gas for a profit while the corporations cry poor about tax and royalties and gas shortages

The Remuneration Tribunal recently told the Senate “transparency and accountability … promotes understanding, trust and confidence in the remuneration system”. Here’s how it responded when I asked how they set the new pollie family travel rules. More on MWM soon. #FOI#auspol
Social cohesion doesn’t look like appointing an NT administrator who has mocked First Nations peoples, made sexist & transphobic comments, and “jokes” about family violence.
Listening to First Nations communities doesn’t look like ignoring their concerns and emboldening racists.
A cynical and brutal terrorist act is being investigated in Lviv. There were two explosions, and the second occurred after emergency services had already arrived at the scene. Twenty-five people were injured. Tragically, one person – a 23-year-old police officer – was killed. My condolences to her family and loved ones. All the injured are receiving assistance. Some are in serious condition, and doctors are doing everything possible to save lives.
The circumstances of this terrorist attack are now being fully analyzed. Many facts have already been established. The perpetrators were recruited via Telegram. The attack was organized by Russia. The Ministry of Internal Affairs, the National Police, and the Security Service of Ukraine will present further details to the public.
We have intelligence indicating that the Russians intend to continue carrying out such actions – in effect, attacks on Ukrainians. We must strengthen protection for our people.
@CalltoActivism If Donald Trump is “ashamed” of the Supreme Court of the United States, it simply means they didn’t bend to his will.
That’s not weakness — that’s the Constitution working.
When loyalty to country overrides loyalty to one man, his grip doesn’t just weaken… it shatters.
Trump's speech following the SCOTUS decision was pathetic as he continues to show no understanding of the struggles faced by the majority of American citizens and small businesses, who are burdened by these indirect taxes while he engages in 'tariff games' with political leaders and countries... -DW
@JonesHowDareYou@AlboMP It was truly an odd way to express his decision. Are we truly that racist and bigoted he had to keep the majority happy with perceived toughness?
Oh FFS!! 500,000 Australians signed a petition for you to DO something about the Murdoch stranglehold on our media. You ignored it. I hope these bastards pillory you (as they WILL..see Amy Remeikas article) from one end of the country to the other. COWARD!!
