@albomp.bsky.social’s #FOI Amendment Bill is evil and likely unconstitutional. It seeks to shield from public view all matters being considered by the top echelons of Govt. It’s a poison pill for democracy for which he should properly be ashamed. #GovtSecrecy #auspol

As was I - and it was a very close competition between the new Independent and the Labor sitting member. That is what Australian wants, the end of the duopoly. I hope the movement grows by the 2028 election.

The same story globally in early 2025.

But: Australia still exports more fossil fuel emissions than we produce at home — and we don’t count them.

Many voted Greens or Independents.

Don’t think anyone expected @albomp.bsky.social to turn out to be such a traitor to the Australian people or nation.

He’s in bed with Scott Morrison’s Mega fossil fuel and AUKUS agenda. Selling out Australia to lowest bidder.

Many voted Greens or Independent; but by putting Liberals last, sent their vote eventually to Labor, something Albanese has never acknowledged.

The ‘Peace President’ killed six more people off the coast of Venezuela this morning. We have no evidence other than his word that they were a threat to anyone, anywhere and also release the Epstein files. Thank you for your attention in this matter!

If there is any justice, Trump’s name will stand not among peacemakers but among those who proved how easily the language of peace can be turned inside out; how empire dresses its crimes in the robes of virtue. #auspol #Trump #NobelPrize

Trump’s war for peace: How the Nobel became his battlefield
