No protection for the Israel lobby… exposure. More and more people seeing who our governments work for will bring the lobby and career politicians to their end. May the people rise ✊ #VoteThemAllOut

Queenslanders in Brisbane defy Premier David Crisafulli with Two Strong Hearts. The song contains a variant of a phrase banned by the premier under his speech criminalisation regime. #qldpol

Chris Bowen to begin Cop31 climate summit president's role remotely
Chris Bowen's role as president for negotiations at the Cop31 climate summit in Turkey later this year will kick off remotely.
With the fuel crisis raging and Bowen giving daily press conferences on the government's response, the climate change and energy minister said he would not fly to Berlin next week for the Petersberg Climate Dialogue, an annual meeting of representatives from about 40 countries.
A spokesperson for the minister said he "considers his travel carefully" and would not fly for the meeting hosted by the German climate action ministry on Tuesday and Wednesday.
"In this instance he will take advantage of the virtual attendance and continues to engage closely with all his international counterparts.
Australia will also not be represented at ministerial level at the first global conference on transitioning away from fossil fuels in Colombia starting next Friday.
Australia's energy minister is skipping global meetings on accelerating the phase-out of fossil fuels because he has to stay in Australia to deal with the fallout from not phasing fossil fuels out fast enough.

Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell could not have sold children for sex without rich perverts buying them for sex. I feel this needs to be emphasized much more than it is.

The police aren't the backbone of the community, what a ridiculous thing to say.
The backbone are the day in day out volunteers who fill the gaps left by government agencies. They save the treasury BILLIONS

Not in our town!
Apparently demolition derbies on public streets in the night where elderly people are harassed and traumatised and property destroyed leads to no arrest.

I stood my ground however our town suffered and people ended up dying. I know that sounds extreme, however when you’ve been walking to the shop every morning for many years to buy your morning paper and then it’s not available. People stay in bed and die.

Maybe referring to the “wealth” is the issue.

An mcm style illustration of a red + black (AUKUS) submarine broken in half. The AU section floats above the waterline with a red rescue helicopter and rope ladder above. The KUS section sinks below, trailing thick black smoke, with a hammerhead shark circling beneath. Bubbles rise from the wreck. Below the waterline, warped hand-lettered text reads "let it sink" - the word SINK distorted as if dissolving underwater. Muted greens, greys, red and black with vintage paper texture.
LEAVE AUKUS NOW.

Why are they commenting on a case that needs to progress through court?! Haven’t we been warned not to comment and allow the process?
