Data and police accountability: New possibilities? Panelists will discuss the role of data in holding police accountable - current limits, and new opportunities for data collection and use

This could be interesting. I feel a new social justice movement starting to gain wider traction

Rose Jackson NSW Water Minister says they're avoiding paying reparations to one inundated farm (while everyone else on the wetlands is gagging for a decent flow) they're trying to keep the water flows within the river banks. That's right. They think that flows to a wetland should be kept in river 🤦‍♀️

Dudes. As a society we taught young women to walk with keys between their fingers in dark parking lots and to carry pepper spray in their purse.

So yes. I’m asking you to be responsible for the actions of other men. After all, that’s what you’ve asked of women for centuries.

It’s your turn.

We can change this practice, keeping animals safer while achieving the same medical goals. If we can do it more kindly, why wouldn't we?

‘Incomprehensible’: birds flee and hundreds of turtles left to die after government cuts water to NSW wetlands Frogs and sheep in the Gwydir wetlands near Moree have also been bogged after WaterNSW stopped environmental flows, researchers say

On what planet is a RAMSAR wetland maintained by keeping water flow within river banks? Some genius stops all environmental & grazier grassland allocated water flows due to a failure of NSWWater hydrology management for a single farm? Huge NSW Govt failure.

BOOM!
South Australia's power prices have plummeted as they near 100% renewables, proving to the world that relying on wind and solar with battery back-up is possible, more reliable and costs people less.

THIS is how we avoid the next oil crisis.

I feel a campaign coming on ...

Yesterday #ShereleMoody Melbourne memorial to murdered women was removed by #MarrinerGroup who own Regent, Princess & Comedy Theatres, Forum & Plaza Ballroom.
Audience support may be effected by this action.
I hope productions who support FDV prevention will use other venues

It's getting easier to believe that police not only have a stranglehold over political decisions in NSW et al but that our political leaders like it that way.
Police culture must be erased & started afresh w/out racism, misogyny, violence at its core

What an embarrassing reflection on the Govt that a charity is needed to advocate to protect children from sexual abuse instead of protecting children being core business of the Govt & all society. But as a charity, how can any of us retain a sense of honour when we don't support such important work

To (mis)quote Inigo Montoya in Princess Bride, I'm not sure the word (intifada) means what you think it means (to Arabic speakers).
Many believe an international uprising is needed to stop Israel's blatant genocide in Gaza. Because its an Arabic word doesn't mean it's a "terrorist" word.

Grace sticks to her foundation's role as much as you do, cinema-phile. A former Aust of the Year & decent human, she speaks on human rights issues incl the subject of her initial advocacy work. I'm sure you'd be happy if she just smiled more but maybe you could just keep watching movies?

I hope she has some peace now. And that we never see the likes of this rapist in court again except as the accused

To whom it may deeply concern, The (term for ‘thing that happened’ that is vague and doesn’t sound too bad) that has been seen in (location) recently has been (adjective) concerning. Australia once again maintains our position that (word that means ‘violence’ but in a term that doesn’t sound as scary) should not continue for too much longer. This tragic (word that makes it sound like a natural disaster) was concerning and as such we are calling for (thing that sounds like action but isn’t). We are also disturbed by (insert claim that has already been proven false to both-sides the blame for the deaths of civilians) and hope that a solution can be found to (Israel’s excuse here) without Israel crossing any (colour of line that Israel is allowed to cross) lines. Yours in (word to help pretend like you actually care about any of the people in danger), (Insert politician name here)

The Australian Government releases statement following latest (insert war crime here)

Police are a law unto themselves & have no legal need to follow the law, Govt policy or even their own SOPs. Their discretion is almost total. Snr cops & oversight bodies are impotent. Cops don't have to investigate a crime, correctly ID perp from victim or be held accountable for their violence

How can RWNJ media outlets be expected to support more RW hatred & dog whistles if they don't ask the chief whistlers what vomit they'll be coughing up (for) next? Those horror funding & RW slop purveyors aren't going to just dog whistle violent racists & male supremacists all by themselves you know

Just when you think police can't go any lower ...

Cops have no duty to report, nor a legal duty to:
* not punch people in the face, smash heads into the ground, choke
* investigate a crime
* identify correct perp & victim
* be truthful in court
* note a magistrate's finding
* make amends for their life-changing errors
* prosecute the correct perp.

No Nuclear Weapons in Australia When it comes to nuclear weapons, Australians have a right to know – and a right to say No.

This is Gina's form of "virtue-lessness signalling". Its a dogwhistle to all of the FRNJs so they'll know that she, along with Kerry, Poorline & Tony Abbott et al are on team war criminal with BRS, team rapist with BL, as well as team hateful, violent but stupid with DJT.

Gorgeous. I've always thought of this song as a Nina Simone song. Although the original Bee Gees version was glorious

NSW Police Are Raiding, Arresting and Charging the Herzog Protesters They Assaulted Police are raiding the homes of the protesters they attacked during the demonstration against the genocidal Israeli president, arresting and charging them with criminal offences
