Great analysis. #NACC fails again.

It will be historically significant that the Albanese government decided to spend its enormous political capital not on addressing systemic inequality but on mindless fealty to the demands of the United States and Israel. That is how it'll be remembered.

NACC's robodebt investigation conjures offensive and stupid excuses for letting Scott Morrison off The NACC report on robodebt is out and it exonerates Scott Morrison, with a series of excuses and a justification of extraordinary offensiveness.

Not surprised it’s still raw. Take a while to get over.

Hope things improve for you in the future……..

Well Victoria you can think what you like but it would appear most people on here disagree with you…….

Is Australia at war? Legally, the answer is yes It's a reasonable question for Australians to ask given the government is sending a sophisticated reconnaissance plane — crewed by dozens of military personnel — to the Middle East. And legal experts ...

"... according to legal experts ...

Australia is at war."

How dare Albanese & his crony cabinet make this decision knowing how the vast majority of Australians feel about it.

THIS IS NOT OUR WAR & THE USA IS NOT "OUR ALLY".

We, apparently, though, are theirs. WHY?

Get OFF the fence, albo!

“Victoria Police said police did not arrest the alleged attacker at the scene, instead asking him "to move on".”

Why?

I call on the Australian government to #RaiseTheRate of all support payments to a living wage.
This would be the single most effective way to lift the productivity, quality of life, and well-being of the whole country.

Depends on the state legislation. Some states now say pets must be allowed (within reason)

“Labor once understood that governing meant acting, not managing. That power was held in trust, not stored for safety. That reform was rarely comfortable and almost never polite.”

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.

Let the USA arrange and pay for the defence of the countries in the Middle East that they have put in harms way with their reckless was mongering.
The mad king has plenty of money and ammunition.
The USA started it. They have to be responsible for the consequences.
