Yeah, neither helpful, nor clever.
Albo, not being clear with the Australian public, again.

Absolutely shambolic. Littleproud by name...

Opinion | Anthony Albanese has a big problem brewing among a crucial cohort from Labor’s mammoth 2025 victory: young women. @crystaljane.bsky.social writes. www.crikey.com.au/2026/03/10/a...
Yep, dogwhistling at its worst.
What an absolute jerk Littleproud is.
Nationals Leader David Littleproud says the government needs to ensure Iranian footballers who have sought asylum in Australia do not bring values of "tyranny".

Not even 0905 and i’ve let my federal member know i do not support our involvement in this burgeoning catastrophe. I encourage you to do the same.
@albomp.bsky.social escalating Australia’s involvement in an illegal war started by the U.S. and Israel. Every day Albo becomes more like John Howard, Australia’s worst ever PM. And this illegal war is smashing the economy. A hearty slow clap for the warmongers.
lo & behold, knock me down with a feather🪶
Flawed in what way? Show us the data :)
Nope, they just suck the taxpayer dry.
And, thank you to all the amazing women, and their allies, who are regularly doing extraordinary things, making the world a better place, all while _still_ fighting a system that's _still_ structurally unfair and morally and ethically compromised.

A big shout-out to the most amazing woman I know, @scidocmartin.bsky.social. You do so much good in the world, for so many, and on so many fronts, forever grateful.

The Melbourne Grand Prix is a massive net negative for Melbourne and Victoria!
"The race loses around $100 million dollars each year and Victorian taxpayers pick up the tab. That’s almost double what the Victorian Government spends on community sport."

Rediscovering species once thought extinct is wonderful, but...
"It is sobering to think of what natural wonders and mysteries we might never understand and appreciate because of insufficient funding, yet we continue to spend billions annually on wars." - me

Indeed
ACF FOI docs show tt Rachel Parry (then DepSec DCCEEW) & KylieCoulhan (WA EnvAssmt) exchanged ~200 txts w WoodCIDE re approval conditions
“Rachel–we are about to send you our response which identifies 3 items of factual correctness which if modified would then constitute a document we can accept”
“They will stymie research and learning, create further job insecurity and deter our best and brightest from pursuing research careers, and hold us back as a nation,” - me

Also, this is quite an old photo of me, not sure why.
Adelaide Uni - Academic freedom, freedom of speech!
Francesca Albanese - Great, let's discuss human rights, war crimes, and genocide.
Adelaide Uni - Oh, not that much freedom. Cancelled, soz.
Genuinely pathetic and embarrassing cowardice.

Vintage circus-style political poster showing Anthony Albanese depicted as a ventriloquist’s dummy with puppet strings. Donald Trump sits behind him as the ventriloquist, while Benjamin Netanyahu appears above controlling Trump like a puppet master. The headline reads “Behold… The Grovelling Gutless Wonder,” with a starburst listing “Capitulates on command! Questions never asked! Spine not included!”
STEP RIGHT UP: The Grovelling Gutless Wonder!! 🎪
Capitulates on command. Questions never asked. Spine not included ~ Posters/tees: tinyurl.com/4smmtm8x
Children’s graves dug for Trump’s and Netanyahu’s war. This image speaks a terrible truth in answer to Labor’s lies about this awful war they support.

Thanks for saying what so many journalists won't, Antoinette.
If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor. If an elephant has its foot on the tail of a mouse and you say that you are neutral, the mouse will not appreciate your neutrality. - Desmond Tutu

Labor talk out both sides of their face on environmental issues. Anyone- *anyone*- who believes that they have a sound environmental record is either (inexcusably?) ignorant or a gigantic ALP shill.
The NT's Finocchiaro govt's gunning for some kinda Guinness world record in native vegetation-threatened species habitat land clearing
Just APPROVED: clearing of ~2,300 ha on Tandyidgee Station owned by Consolidated Pastoral Co

Backing illegal US-Israeli aggression against Iran may be a mindless reflex for PM @albomp.bsky.social, FM @senatorwong.bsky.social, DM Richard Marles but they must answer for innocent lives taken with their complicity
