Love Julianne’s work.

The hills in SA are finally turning green but our farmers need a lot more.

What I really miss is an accepted 3rd party (by the media), that holds the government to account. What we have now is an effing freak show. The Greens are the new Democrats but the media treats them as crap despite their national vote #auspsol

Thank you David Shoebridge #qanda #auspol

It’s happening to established centre left parties across the globe George.

He won’t last long Peter. But, it’s a loss for the nation.

Can somebody do some analysis of the green/independent vote across electorates, especially in the cities? How many Labor seats are owed to those preferences, including those where the primary vote went to candidates other than the ALP? #auspol

The big unspoken issue tonight.

I have a new theory at the end of almost 52 years & 16 months of trauma therapy.

Post-menopausal women are the wisest people on the planet & it’s about time we started listening to them & electing them to our parliaments.

If someone from @australiainstitute.org.au appeared each week, I would watch it again religiously. @richarddenniss.bsky.social has been a breath of fresh air.

I have been listening to him a lot lately ❤️

Julieanne’s work is excellent.

Bloodyhell. If I was paid that much for every 10,000 words I wrote for work …

As an outsider looking in, AOC, Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, Katie (? - awesome in committee hearings Katie) need to get together with Pete Buttigieg (your best IMHO), the Governor of Illinois & some other great & fresh faces. The world is watching & will want new people to rebuild with.

From Facebook …

I like to recycle & support local businesses. But, I really should not be allowed to take my wallet to Strathalbyn very often (I didn’t buy the MG & only bought 1 vintage candy jar today) but I suspect I have a problem …

Fabulous. Mushroom & zucchini.

It was delicious & we enjoyed it with some French champagne. Perfect evening.

Maggie Beer is cooking us risotto for dinner tonight & it’s still 36 in Adelaide. I will just have to top up the bubbles 🥂

Can we organise a forum before the next election where we discuss the shitty policy scenario & what a progressive party or coalition might actually do? We need an agenda with priorities for all of us that want & expect more #auspol

Wear it with pride Michael.

Happy 80th Birthday Maggie ❤️🎂

Am I the only person who didn’t know that a nectarine is a peach, just without the fuzzy skin?

But it’s $50k & jail for climate protestors here in SA.

I cannot help but feel disillusioned with the state of politics & the world. Our major parties are completely compromised, if not corrupted. Vote Independents in Australia.

I see the next federal election as my last chance to influence positive change for my grandchildren. I live in Mayo so it’s in the Senate where my vote will really matter.

Can someone in Australia offer some legitimate avenues to donate aid to Gaza? I am following lots of Gazans but would prefer to donate to a charity. @kkarapanagiotidis.bsky.social

Good work Jim. Just a shame your government supports genocide, Aukus, & fossil fuels. Perhaps if you prioritised ordinary Australians (as a government not just as treasurer), we might be able to give Labor our preference again.
