Australia rejected the right's agenda, we'll see if Labor do the same
We are about to find out whether the Labor government has the bravery to govern without the approval of right-wingers.

How about no? Trump, who enabled Netanyahu’s deadliest policies, is now leading the peace process.
That’s like Murdoch writing the media code of ethics.
Australia shouldn’t go anywhere near it.

Today we will see the clamouring of politicians, all desperate to appease the lobbyists of a foreign govt, blaming the “cultural left” for the human toll of hatred.

So I’m posting this to demonstrate what an Australian leader looks like

Trump is trying to sell Palestinian sovereignty for $1 billion per seat while Palestinians are still being bombed and starved under the so-called “ceasefire.”

This isn’t diplomacy, it’s profiteering off genocide. Australia better not touch this with a 10-foot pole.

The Albanese Government has decided to risk Victoria's 90 Mile beach so foreign owned gas corporations can explore for gas.

It will be almost entirely FOR EXPORT and our Government will give them the gas FOR FREE. www.gippslandmonitor.com.au/p/government...

@albomp.bsky.social, just say no.

Please don’t associate Australians with Trump and Netanyahu’s crooked property deal. The deal was sealed by the blood of genocide.

Just say no.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: the national day of mourning should be January 26th. That’s when the real terror started for our First Nations mob. The sooner we all come to terms with it the better. That’s how our nation will truly move forward.

Every time they upgrade the mobile network, coverage decreases. CDMA and the old analog networks worked brilliantly, 200km range. now we can be 10km from a tower, and get little to no service
We need reliable communications during climate emergencies like bushfires and floods. But changes have left regional communities exposed.

I'd like to know...

Did Attorney-General Michelle Rowland ask for the Solicitor-General's advice on the new antisemitism, hate speech & extremism draft legislation?

If so, what was his advice - in full - not just cherry-picked bits & pieces?

If not, why not?
