I’m so tired of trump bullying the world, and Australia just ‘in negotiations.’ You can’t negotiate with a narcissist with dementia. Leave our PBS alone!

My federal MP sent me an e mail admitting that his government is failing on social policy by begging for charity money.

One of the charities is Salvation Army youth services, where much of the donations will go to paying lawyers to fight compensation claims.

He sent this thinking it was good PR.

AUKUS would pay for centuries of CSIRO funding, inflation notwithstanding. People really don't appreciate how trivial the science budget is, and especially how trivial funding for research bodies is.

I've worked hard with all non-govt senators to secure release of the Briggs review.

Now it's clear why the Albanese Govt was hiding it for two years.

They are refusing to implement recommendations designed to ensure we have merit-based appointments 🤯

Very disappointing the Albanese Govt has refused to accept the full suite of recommendations from the Briggs Review designed to stop the jobs for mates culture in federal politics.

No surprise there is such low trust in politicians!

Communities constantly call for more integrity but are ignored.

This is really bad!
First - it seems some kind of monitoring and/or database is being kept on community independent volunteers - and then there's the refusal to serve a constituent based on their political views.
This is REALLY bad!!! #auspol

I remember when we used to have pretty good internal biosecurity and quarantine controls - eg fruit fly and tick gates.
Now its all to hard - the ‘public good’ is no longer worthy of funding. Now we have varroa mites, fire ants, fruit fly, feral deer and the rest, just carrying on unimpeded. 😡

Feral pigs are a massive issue across Australia. They can cause tremendous damage to environments, wildlife and cultural sites. And, like many invasive species, government funding of their control and eradication is grossly insufficient.
