In two years, Israel has killed more than 1,000 Palestinians in the occupied West Bank.
Every day, settlers attack Palestinian villages. Netanyahu & his extremist allies have one goal: annexation by force. The U.S. has enabled them.

If the Government's top priority is productivity, slashing the CSIRO budget does not make sense
Research and development is one of the major drivers of productivity and the CSIRO has a long track record of making productivity enhancing breakthroughs.

The Dismissal at 50: Albanese condemns the past but avoids real reform
Anthony Albanese condemned the 1975 Dismissal as a partisan ambush. Yet he refuses to pursue the constitutional reforms needed to prevent another vice-regal intervention. Australia remains exposed, and neither government nor public sentiment seems ready for the changes required.

How dare you preach to us about "protecting kids," @albomp.bsky.social.
You've spent the last 2 years enabling the slaughter of an estimated 380,000 Palestinian kids.
You've made a policy choice to keep 3 million households that include kids in poverty.
