During an illegal war, Albanese and Wong treat us like idiots Anthony Albanese and Penny Wong obsessively talk about international law, but go silent when Israel and the US breach it. It's part of a broader picture of refusal to be honest with Australians.

Australia

Government has no interest to improve Australian living. Yet they cruise along, reading prepared scripts of lies; doing nothing that is needed. Politicians are not aware of how conceited and shamefully they present.

'We're the experts in our own lives': Victoria's First Nations treaty body is holding its first elections After more than two decades in the construction industry, Andrew Thorpe has decided to down tools and take a shot at politics. But it is not the traditional political system that has governed Australia since 1901. Thorpe is running for a seat in a “new era” of the First Peoples’ Assembly of Victoria, after Australia’s first and only treaty was signed between a state government and traditional owners in November. It’s a familiar world for Thorpe: his mother, the independent senator Lidia Thorpe, and uncle Robbie Thorpe, have been fighting and campaigning for Aboriginal rights for decades. The Gunnai and Gunditjmara man tells Guardian Australia it was his time to “step up and be a part of it”. “Last Friday, I quit my job in construction, and I’m full on [campaigning],” he says. “Either if I get into the treaty – I want to be able to make changes that are beneficial for mob – or if I don’t get into the treaty, I’m still gonna be working directly with whatever I can to try and help our mob move forward.” Thorpe says while he has not been “upfront and a leader” before, “I’ve always been around it [politics] and...

Thousands of Scots 'disenfranchised by poverty' in upcoming Holyrood election Research by the Poverty Alliance has found an 11 per cent gap in voter turnout between the richest and poorest constituencies. Campaigners say tens of thousands of low-income Scots risk being “disenfranchised by deprivation” in May’s Holyrood election. Research by the Poverty Alliance has found an 11 per cent gap in voter turnout between the richest and poorest constituencies in Scotland in an alarming “democratic deficit”. The charity is urging ­politicians to close the gap by supporting community get-out-the-vote campaigns – and delivering on policies that lift people out of poverty. One woman from a low income background told the Sunday Mail she was “really struggling to pick the best of a bad bunch” in the vote on May 7. Linda Craik, 60, a member of the grassroots End Poverty ­Edinburgh group, said: “I’m one of those folk who always votes, firstly because people fought damn hard to make sure I got the vote. Secondly, because I believe if you can’t be bothered to vote then you have no right to complain when the politicians mess it all up. “But I am very disillusioned by all the ­political parties at the mom­ent, and not just from the perspective of what...

AI videos fuel anti-Ukraine fears ahead of Hungary's pivotal vote Warning: This piece refers to scenes of violence from the start When a video went viral appearing to show a Hungarian soldier's execution, its disturbing nature came as a shock to anyone who saw it. Ahead of pivotal Hungarian elections on Sunday 12 April, the AI-generated, fake clip was posted on the social media accounts of Prime Minister Viktor Orbán's Fidesz party in February. It tells the story of a young girl at a window yearning for her father's return home from war, and then the video cuts to him - blindfolded, bound by the hands, and then shot by his captors. The video targeted Orbán's election rival, Péter Magyar, who could unseat him after 16 years in office. The Fidesz campaign has made unsubstantiated claims about the war in Ukraine and Magyar's intentions, at times using AI-generated videos like this, even though it makes clear the video is fake. "The video is an AI video, but the war is really horrible," the video says. "Péter Magyar doesn't want you to see this video. He doesn't want you to see what an irreversible tragedy it is to join a war." Fidesz alleges that Magyar, from the centre-right party Tisza, will...

Why US and Russia are backing Viktor Orbán in Hungary election The official announcement that JD Vance was to visit, days before Hungarians cast their ballots in a hotly contested election, was greeted by Budapest with no less than four exclamation marks and three emojis. “!!Official!!” Viktor Orbán’s political director, Balázs Orbán, wrote on social media as he confirmed the news. The White House said Vance, along with his wife Usha, will land in Hungary on Tuesday, in what is widely seen as an attempt to bolster Orbán as he trails in the polls. But the US isn’t the only country throwing its weight behind Orbán. Support has also apparently come from Hungary’s east, as Russian intelligence agencies, along with disinformation networks with links to Russia, are alleged to be working to sway the election. Questions have begun to swirl as to why the two countries appear to agree on the need to keep Orbán – who once described Hungary as a “petri dish for illiberalism” – in power. “That is somewhat ironic, isn’t it?” said Jeremy Shapiro, the research director of the European Council on Foreign Relations. “If you would have asked me five years ago: ‘Would that happen?’ I would certainly say no.” It was a glimpse of how...
