Albanese’s politics of avoidance From AUKUS to Gaza and now Iran, the government’s instinct has been to avoid political traps rather than confront hard choices – and voters are drifting away.

Muslims traumatised after right-wing attack on community dinner A Muslim community in Ballarat is left traumatised after a man barged into a community dinner allegedly throwing punches and yelling abuse.

So Victoria Police did not arrest the alleged attacker at the scene, instead asking him "to move on". Wow! If this racist had stormed into a Jewish function he’d certainly have been arrested. Double standards?

Kidnap people of colour
Bomb school girls
Kill their own citizens
Bomb half a dozen countries
Kidnap a President
Murder a sovereign leader
Protect child rapists
Cut foreign aid
Mass surveillance

And @albomp.bsky.social says we share values with these lunatics.

An election will show we don’t.

Australia’s biggest gas producers are cashing in on the conflict in the Middle East and the suspension of Qatari LNG production, which has disrupted global supply, with deals struck at more than double recent market rates.

Santos, the country’s second-biggest listed oil and gas producer, finalised a deal with a commodities trader on Wednesday for the sale of an LNG cargo at about $US25 ($35) per million British thermal units (MMBtu), according to market sources, who were not authorised to speak publicly.

Not a single soul on the planet happier about bloodshed, conflict, uncertainty, rising energy bills, fuel shortages and cost of living collapse than the CEO of a fossil fuel company

Albanese does nothing. Personally wish Dutton had won the last election, at least he was honest about doing nothing.

Asking the wrong question is one of the oldest disinformation ploys.

The right question is NOT whether Ayatollah Khamenei's regime was evil and a sponsor of terrorism.

The RIGHT question is whether simply bombing Iran will lead to a change for the better or just make things worse.

Trump destroys.

The Gillard years were a mess of unacceptable misogyny. I know One Nation probably chose David Farley to run in Farrer BECAUSE he is a vile misogynist (& probably a racist bigot too - like Hanson). One Nation are a stain on Australia and should be condemned (and not preferenced - shame on Liberals).

Fuel crisis - Government’s playbook revealed - Michael West Rex Patrick obtained the government's Fuel Security crisis document on FOI. What happens when petrol prices from the Iran war rise too high?

Yes, there's a plan for fuel crisis. The Govt spent $150k trying to stop @mrrexpatrick.bsky.social FOI to get it. Here it is - published with link to worse case

LICKSPITTLE Definition & Meaning - Merriam-Webster
The meaning of LICKSPITTLE is a fawning subordinate : toady. Remind you of anyone? PM Albanese immediately comes to my mind a sad shadow of the progressive politician who was elected to parlt. 30 years ago.

But not surprised. Albo and coy totally under control of Zionist/pro IDF lobby. Happy to ignore ongoing genocide in Gaza, ditto settler violence in West Bank and Jerusalem.

“This is Israel’s way of saying they will carpet bomb Iran and call everyone they kill “human shields.”

“Gaza was a testing ground for what they get away with.”

Perhaps a more worrying for Australia that our oppression class is tethering themselves to the most racist dumb fucks in the country.

Who is PETER VAN ONSELEN again? Can vaguely recall the name - wasn’t he once a journalist on the ABC? Before reverting to right-wing publicist/asshole role he’s assumed now?

#ABC730 are platforming this grotesque Zionist propagandist again. This nutjob Israeli politician is projecting so hard. These people won’t be happy till every country around Israel is a pile of concrete rubble. But of course they see themselves as the pristine force of good. They are the terrorists

The German Chancellor sits next to Trump as he threatens and insults Spain, and eagerly joins in. The fact that pandering to autocrats doesn't work is immediately demonstrated – Trump threatens tariffs against Germany, laughs smugly, and slaps Merz on the trouser leg.
