No footage of Qld Labor or Fed Labor MPs responding to the allegations. #qldpol

This is the Queensland media in the eighties. Russ Hinze tells them there is nothing going on.

2020s Qld Media: Oh well, that's all there is then, we'll just move on.

1980s Qld Media: Get fucked. #qldpol

A must watch Sundays or ANY day.

Peter Dutton appointed to Queensland investment board Mr Dutton's has kept a low public profile since he led the Coalition to defeat at the 2025 federal election, and also lost his seat of Dickson.

Oh, no.

Queensland Treasurer David Janetski has appointed Peter Dutton to the board of state-owned Queensland Investment Corporation. This entity is crucial to the prosperity of Queenslanders with $135 billion in assets to manage. #qldpol www.abc.net.au/news/2026-04...

From small target opposition leader to small target premier, it's the continuing saga of the incredible shrinking Queensland leader. #qldpol

David Crisafulli backtracks on promise to resign if crime victim numbers do not fall under an LNP government Opposition leader adds caveat to campaign vow on eve of Queensland election day as polls tighten

The famous David Crisafulli promise to resign was made on Ch9's election debate. On polling day eve he added a caveat. He says he was referring to per capita rates & not the overall number of victims. As premier he began releasing his own stats. #qldpol www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

The best explanation why millions of Americans worship and support a convicted felon and sexual predator...

Running on empty: Australia's hard truths on security It is fantasy to think a nation that doesn't control its energy has security. Australia could have been well on its way to energy security.

The Coalition and the stupid climate wars is why we’re here.

I quite liked the game. Go Lions 🦁🦁🦁

Has been extremely strong response to my posting article re Australia’s inequality enhancing school funding model. This has to be taken up in political systems & media #auspol

All that recycling and washing in cold water and turning off the light switches has served us well yeah?

The past decade has shown that giving evil people a platform, even in the guise of an “interview” or press conference, is always a failure. They never admit error, and they use the platform to spout lies and propaganda.

Take your “hold them to account” naivety back to the 1980s

Black and white photographs of Parramatta Centenary Uniting Church. People are seated at tables on a raised stage and on the ground floor, engaged in discussions and working on laptops. A large wooden cross is visible on the brick wall behind the stage. People focused on their laptops, printed materials and a QR code flyer are visible on the table. Other attendees are seated in the background. Other people standing together, smiling and laughing. Some attendees are visible mingling in the background near the entrance. CLDC in full launch!

The Americans was sublime!

As our universities are being hollowed out, jobs and courses slashed and the quality of teaching plummeting, they can somehow find the funds for costly consultants and million-dollar salaries for Vice Chancellors.

National Press Club platforming Israeli ambassador - knowing IDF killed 250+ journalists - for lunch chat. In the same week Israel admits doctoring Lebanese journalist image after murder. Disgraceful & dystopian yet somehow still shamelessly in full view, to be broadcast on ABC

One woman is killed a week in Australia from domestic violence and this magot has not only never condemned that but shockingly blamed women for "making up" allegations.

This evil hag is not only owned by fossil fuel but also by the misogynistic patriarchy.

Tomorrow's episode of Sunday Shot is me, editor of The Chaser John Delmenico, and Grace "difficult" Tame. We talk about WW3, the ABC, crappy reporting on autism, and freakin' Afroman. Out on YouTube at 9am

All dissent must be stifled...

Wtf is going on?

“In Section 11(5), the university is stipulating that there can be no discussion of anything that is censored — i.e. that the censorship regime cannot be discussed,”
