Yes @albomp.bsky.social, if #TonyBurke refuses (especially after the #Bondimassacre) to truthfully answer the "10 questions" referenced in this SKY NEWS article he should tender his resignation as Home Affairs Minister immediately.

WTAF was #ACurrentAffair 's #LeilaMcKinnon thinking?

She must have the sensitivity of a hyena to have cut off an interview she was having with former #Bondi lifeguard Ben Davies as he was about to pay tribute to lifeguards who went to the aid of the massacre victims. She's as shallow as a puddle.

Exactly what the "Zionists" in #Israel do NOT want to see - having the Jewish community and Muslim community in Australia unite and reach a consensus that we are all one and equal as human beings.

Zionists (and #Mossad) are as big of a threat to "real Jews" as are Islamists.

#Budgieband are a lot more famous for being a huge influence on #Metallica than for any music they recorded.

The band hailed from #Wales, with a sound that was basically stoner rock with a strong influence of #StatusQuo and #BadCompany.

This is a good jam of theirs from '75.

The modelling by #CSIRO is absolute ballyhoo.

In REAL TERMS, without any "free power" from @jimchalmers.bsky.social, the cost of electricity in Australia since 2024 went up over 70%.

The enormous "infrastructural costs" to incorporate renewable energy into the grid the MAIN REASON.

It's a job for US coast guard / border police with the #FBI as a "back up". According to the US constitution & international law.

Those agencies have every "legal norm right" to intercept drug smuggling boats and apprehend the smugglers.

But the US military should NOT be involved.

It's poor timing & maintaining a "neutral position", would serve #DavidLittleproud a whole lot better, but he's totally correct.

Guns aren't the problem. The issue is about who gets a licence to own one.

All the talk in the aftermath of the #Bondimassacre has been centred on GUN CONTROL.

As much as that needs ramping up, terrorists, organised crims,psychos in general,will always still get their hands on firearms.

‘We must overturn our immigration policy’: How ‘importing hatred’ lead to Bondi Beach atrocity
Sky News host Peta Credlin has shared her take on the Bondi Beach atrocity which as of now has resulted in 15 innocent deaths, and more hospitalised. “After we mourn the dead, let us all use our grief and our justifiable anger to force change,” Ms Credlin said. “We must overturn three or so decades of immigration policy where we have imported hatred into Australia that have no place here, or anywhere.”

What #AhmedAlAhmed did was heroic. His actions, based purely on instinct and impulse, with no thought whatsoever for his own life, certainly saved lives.

An absolutist adherence to Islamist ideology and propaganda is what "inspired" Sajid and Naveed Akram, to carry out their shocking crime.

#NaveedAkram was a nutjob all along. Being affiliated with and influenced by an "Islamist crackhead" like #WisamHaddad, one of the most notorious Jihadists in Australia, was only ever going to exacerbate his now terribly obvious psychotic disposition.

SKY NEWS, just like its ideological opposites such as Guardian Australia and the ABC, does itself no favours with "earning real credibility" by referencing "fossil fuels" in articles. THEY DON'T EXIST.

What would it really take to stop #Putin fighting in #Ukraine? In all likelihood TWO THINGS.

(1) That #Zelensky fully commits (as reportedly he is now prepared to do) to fully withdraw Ukraine's bid to join #NATO.

(2) For Ukraine to cede the entire #Donbas region to #Russia.
