QLD Police, the AFP and the Dept of Home Affairs will need to explain how they are not complicit in putting the remaining Iranian women’s football team at risk, or accept responsibility and explain how their actions comply with international law #Auspol #IranWomensTeam #GoldCoast #SOS

Does Littleproud think tyranny is a value? Rather unholy imo #Auspol

Breaking: Five Iranian women's soccer players to seek asylum in Australia, multiple sources say Five female soccer players who it was feared would face persecution when they returned to Iran have left their accommodation in the Gold Coast and plan to seek asylum in Australia, multiple sources ha...

Is there any evidence that these 'handlers' of the Iranian women's soccer team are exercising coercive control?
If so, that is a criminal offence under Queensland law

Can you spare a minute to help this campaign? Provide protection for Iran’s women’s national football team

I think Lent and Ramadan coinciding is a poetic and beautiful sign of harmony, and shared spiritual experiences sorely needed at this time ❤️🕊️☮️

Wednesday will also be the first night of Ramadan in Australia - with fasting during the day beginning on Thursday ☪️🧎

It is also the traditional Mardi Gras (Fat Tuesday)/Shrove Tuesday/Pancake Tuesday 🥞🫦🍾 as the next day, Wed 18 February, is Ash Wednesday and the start of Lent in the Christian calendar, a time for penance and reflection 😇🙏✝️

Just an interesting observation: Tue 17 Feb 2026 is the Lunar New Year 🧧🏮, a day of celebration for many cultures, most notably in Asia

Sign the Petition Remove NSW police from the 2026 Sydney Mardi Gras parade

As a previous supporter of NSW Police marching in the Sydney Mardi Gras, I withdraw my support after the events on Monday night, & especially the police chief's complete denial of possibility that the police may have been in the wrong. We shall see: c.org/vs96CbQNMM #NSWPol #ResignMinns #MardiGras

Sadly amusing that it took Haaretz to pick up on this line by Albanese

Catley's intimidation on behalf of the NSW Police: "think again... you are deliberately antagonising the NSW Police"
Let's now all fear the police because they no longer provide security to the community! #FreePalestine #FreeGaza #ResignMinns

'Heavy-handed, state-enforced limitations on speech rarely change minds about political issues. Rather, sanitising the public square through exclusion zones merely drives extremist sentiments underground or galvanises protesters to weaponise this new grievance.'

'The challenge for a civil society should be to balance the right to protest against the right of a community to grieve without harassment.'

Herzog’s welcome visit shouldn’t limit the right to dissent State-enforced limitations on speech rarely change minds and sanitising the public square drives extremist sentiments underground or galvanises protesters.

The AFRs surprising editorial today (just two sentences from the article):
'Criticising any government, including Israel’s, is a legitimate exercise of democratic freedom. There’s a problematic tendency by some to conflate anti-Israel sentiment with antisemitism.'

Perhaps it's just a harmless initiation practice for them to playfully fetishise amongst themselves??

Fuck the disrespect! #FreeGaza #FreePalestine #ResignMinns #ArrestHerzog

Fuck the disrespect!! #FreePalestine #ResignMinns #ArrestHerzog

I can't tell the difference

#BREAKING 🚨 Former Greens candidate Hannah Thomas says NSW premier Chris Minns "is responsible for every single injury" at the Sydney march against Isaac Herzog

Protesters were pepper-sprayed and punches thrown, with Thomas saying it "felt like war being waged on us by police"

NSW police make Israeli president feel at home by mercilessly attacking anyone with a Palestine flag

"Luckily the police seemed more than excited to step in and get as violent as needed to make sure he doesn't feel homesick" - Premier Minns chaser.com.au/national/nsw...

I can't tell the difference

The prime minister, Anthony Albanese, invited Herzog after the 14 December antisemitic attack at Bondi, saying his visit was intended to foster “a greater sense of unity”.

Tell Klöckner: Stop the rainbow ban! Klöckner sends police to remove rainbow flags from Parliament. This isn’t neutrality – it’s queer erasure.
