The network of Liberals behind two 'grassroots' childcare campaigns The childcare groups say they are the voices for everyday parents. What they do not mention is that they are supported by a network of current and former Liberals.

We finally figured out what's the go is with the au pair. "Grassroots campaign" for taxpayer funded nannies and au pairs is astro-turfed by ex-staffers and a Liberal consultancy. www.abc.net.au/news/2026-03...

ISIS brides: the race to the bottom.

Just 14 federal politicians (out of 226) openly/ardently oppose this racist regression.
Of the 212 others, most couldn't care less about Australian IDF soldiers, back from the genocide in Gaza, who walk freely among us.

The hypocrisy is breathtaking.

Today, under the cover of the Liberals tearing each other down, Labor has approved another coal mine extension.

Extending Middlemount to 2044 means Labor has now approved 35 fossil fuel projects.

In the middle of the climate crisis, they're approving more coal & gas.

Sophie Scamps MP:
"At the very time the Government is welcoming President Herzog into Parliament House, with the entrance being officially lined with Israeli flags, Israel is moving to extend the illegal occupation of the West Bank thus undermining the hope for a two-state solution."

This was planned. And Chris Minns owns it. - Michael West NSW Police have assaulted dozens of peace protestors who gathered to protest the visit by Israeli president Isaac Herzog to Australia.

The rally ended peacefully.

Speakers finished.

People began to leave.

That should have been the end of the day.
Instead, it was the beginning of a deliberate escalation.

Craven speaking at the Skynews antisemitism Summit last year states if he was still a Vice Chancellor  he'd break hateful occupation or demonstration and engage police in prosecuting demonstrators, and impose disciplinary processes, and if that was legally challenged he would create new harsher disciplinary measures. Craven was handpicked by Combatting Antisemitism Czar, Jillian Segal, as the "independent" assessor to judge her, and now the Government's  University Report Card project.

β€œIn order to grieve, we need this genocidal cretin and president of apartheid Israel to visit, we simply can’t otherwise” is an absurd and obscene demand. Literally trying to use the dead to normalise a war criminal. As usual, there is zero self-awareness as to what this reveals about their values.

What is Israel's Herzog doing here, who invited him, and why? - Michael West Israel's President, Isaac Herzog to arrive in Australia in February. Why is a foreign Head of State asked to help heal Australian community?

he is the political head of a foreign power, not a spiritual or pastoral leader of Judaism. This visit is by definition about zionist allegiance to the genocidal apartheid state of Israel.
