πŸ‘‡Flashback to DecemberπŸ‘‡. Electricity prices (which are set by the gas price) are about to rise because our Govt places Aussies at third place behind the gas cartel and Japanese/South Korean gas consumers. #auspol

As an Australian I can safely say our government is totally in lockstep with the US administration and will do absolutely nothing to root out the cancer that has infiltrated Western politics. Our politicians don't act for the people, they operate solely for themselves and the so called "elite'.

Despite a ceasefire that stipulated the immediate entry of full aid, only about 43% of the allocated trucks (31,178 out of 72,000) entered Gaza between October 2025 and February 2026, averaging 260 trucks per day. Drivers report significant delays due to lengthy Israeli inspections.

Israel's Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT) claimed that enough food has been delivered since the ceasefire began to cover four times the population's need for an extended period, a statement made without providing evidence.

Israel has kept all Gaza border crossings closed for ten consecutive days, worsening a severe humanitarian crisis for over two million Palestinians.

ATTENTION: @senatorwong.bsky.social

The major driver of acts of terrorism committed across the world is western violence towards Muslim countries and Muslim people.

Participating in genocides and illegal wars against majority Muslim populations will not "keep Australians safe." #auspol

Albanese has now admitted that Australians were onboard the US nuclear sub that sank an Iranian vessel and left the crew to drown, in a violation of international law. This was always an inevitability of AUKUS. End AUKUS now.

The #FOI Amendment Bill is officially dead.

This is a victory for civil society, which has worked collectively to ensure this Bill – which would have harmed our democracy – did not become law.

Long live transparency! #auspol

Adelaide University cancels literary festival event with UN Gaza investigator Francesca Albanese Festival organisers criticise the university for last-minute booking cancellation of event headlined by special rapporteur for Palestinian territories

If we don't tax the hyper-rich out of existence, pedophile psychopaths will keep using our species' collective wealth to bomb, police, surveil, propagandise and cook us into submission, maybe even extinction

How John Howard reshaped Australia – and not for the better Many of Australia’s most pressing social and economic problems can be traced to policy choices made during the Howard years, from housing and inequality to wages, tax and public services.

Housing stress, inequality, insecure work and budget strain didn’t appear by accident. They were built into Australia by deliberate policy choices during the Howard years, Crispin Hull writes.

Independent Senator David Pocock has added his voice to calls for a 25% tax on gas exports.
