Good wrap of the Hannah Thomas case in NSW. Increasingly clear that NSW Police lied about the evidence and maliciously prosecuted Thomas to try and deflect from their own misconduct www.sydneycriminallawyers.com.au/blog/calls-f...
A malfunction of their moral compass? Or was it ever installed?
Killing children collecting water is a war crime. Another war crime.
I think we need to stop obsessing over the mushroom murders and turn our attention to the NT coroner’s inquest report into the police shooting and death of Kumanjayi Walker by policeman Zach Rolfe
The biggest problem with the ALP right now is it is led by someone who irrationally hates the Greens.
He doesn't really like to "fight Tories"; he loves to fight the party that reveals his actual lack of "left-wing" positions.
Someone needs to tell him to get over his uni politics crap.
What do you call it?
My @smh @theage cartoon.
The Murujuga rock art is one of Australia's most priceless heritage sites.
And it's being slowly destroyed.
If Environment Minister Murray Watt approves the 50 year extension to the North West Shelf, it will be a death sentence for Murujuga.

Never forget how many of those advising the ALP are patting themselves on the back for ensuring the govt did nothing in this.
“Not an issue/we made sure it hurt the Greens”
Those doing so are truly putrid. At best excusing murder, at worst cheering for it.

Well, it begins. I was hoping @albomp.bsky.social would finally grow a spine after growing his majority, but alas. Same old cowardice. Glad Keating isn’t mincing words. Not holding my breath Albo will actually do anything positive this term.
Ah, the perfect representation of the rotten Albanese government, rushing through laws weakening environmental protection for profit and votes. (Supposedly — does he think voters are stupid?)
👏 @sarahhansonyoung.bsky.social
Totally, nobody dares call Dutton out on his bullshit. Sound familiar?
A great (as in depressing) thread on “Temu Trump”. So many examples of how Dutton never missed a chance to fail a character test as immigration minister.
Awesome that Sydney has truly embraced metro! And yet:
> Despite the strong patronage, the agency said there were no plans to increase frequency of services, noting that how they aligned with passenger demand and usage was “continuously monitored”.
Booooooooooooooo!
The USA is not a friendly nation. It is run by kleptocrats. Any political party not currently looking at reshaping our defence and foreign affairs policies is negligent in the extreme.
AUKUS must go. The AUSFTA is dead. We have leverage. Time to use it.
All of these attacks were used by politicians on both sides and basically every media outlet to justify attacks on pro-Palestinian campaigners, pass repressive new laws and criminalise the anti-genocide movement. Now it’s revealed they were all orchestrated by one criminal syndicate

The US is actively sabotaging its ally Ukraine. How can we ever trust the US again? AUKUS, Five Eyes, all needs to be ripped up immediately. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
Claiming damages for future potential profits is insanity. Blatant example in progress: www.theguardian.com/environment/...
ISDS (Investor-State Dispute Settlement) is a scourge and should be eliminated. Countries should just stop participating immediately. Businesses wont invest? Call that bluff. www.theguardian.com/global-devel...
Mother of god what is that
Really poorly communicated for a very unusual situation where peak hour frequency/capacity was halved, and the line cut short.
Non-existent social comms on Metro. Zero coordination with Trains announcements.
Does this need to happen again for the other track at Sydenham? TfNSW better learn.
Re Zelensky at the WH, yet again, feminists and trauma/abuse- informed thinkers are years ahead of political analysts.
There is no acceptable affect, no way to charm an abuser, and no “deal” other than playing very very dead that would change how Trump and his flying monkey Vance behaved.
Both sides to… *checks notes* genocide? That’s uh, not balance. How far the ABC has fallen.
Screenshot of train line status, 0% on time for Sydney Trains, 100% for Sydney Metro
Indicator boards at Martin Place station showing Sydney Metro running every 4 minutes, Sydney Trains T4 mostly cancelled with only one train to Cronulla in 23 min
A tale of two systems
Close to zero trains running in Sydney today.
As a staunch supporter of unions my whole adult life, recognising their important role in achieving fair working conditions…
Fire the RTBU into the sun. Zero patience for a union that would try (in futility) to stop the planet from spinning.
@seatsixtyone.bsky.social You wrote to “let me know how absolutely right you think I am” about staying at the Romantik Hotel Muottas Muragl.
I’m up here now, and thus letting you know that you are… absolutely right! 😎
Thanks for the tip, for all the tips!
I really had forgotten just how tiring it is to wake up *everyday* and see Trump's latest bullshit being covered in the news.
