My goodness, look at these polling results, trump's disapproval in just about every category is OVER 67%.

So LAME! Captured by corporate interests. They govern for them, not us. Shame.

Sigh. PM Albo is developing a nasty habit of dithering towards disappointment.

Lack of vision and no wonder folks wish to disrupt politics as usual.

Simply because the historical other primary party is creating a rubbish soup, does not mean ALP can expect to coast through next time.

This fucken coward creating even greater economic turmoil.

stopping Israel is the priority. Even rioting Israelis and half the Knesset and their Supreme Court justices know this.

The arrogance and stupidity of the US is gobsmacking! They are being humiliated by Iran, a minnow compared to China, and we are willingly being co-opted into their wars of aggression,
We risk being an even bigger nuclear target, subservience to Trump and militarism is madness!

Nope it’s giving handouts to rich dudes with multiple homes, massive corporations who pay no tax, giving natural resources away for free and buying dud subs from fascists. #auspol

Cutting the #NDIS by $50billion AT THE SAME TIME as we will pay $360Billion to the warmongering failed-state USA??

Peter Malinauskas referring to people with disabilities as an "additional burden" on the South Australian healthcare system is utterly foul

davidshoebridge: 'You need to know about these laws. You don't have to do anything wrong and ASIO can question you for 24 hours. You can be strip searched, put in restraints. If you don't answer the questions you can go to jail. It you tell anyone they questioned you, you can go to jail.'

In response, more than 30 UQP authors - including Abdel-Fattah, Sakr, Sara M Saleh, Ellen van Neerven, Allison Whittaker, Amy McQuire and Tony Birch - wrote to the publisher, saying they stood "unequivocally behind Jazz Money".
