The Liberal Party feeling left out & humiliated has held an urgent Press Conference attacking Labor for striking a deal with The Greens on Environmental Laws. They say this is a “dark day for the mining industry.”
Great! 👍 #auspol

Apple is anti-union.

Tesla is anti-union.

Amazon is anti-union.

McDonald's is anti-union.

Starbucks is anti-union.

Google is anti-union.

Walmart is anti-union.

These mega-corporations aren’t on workers’ side and their actions make it painfully clear.

Some good discussions on here. Really good antidote to the kneejerk Islamophobia that pervades this country, fuelled by the LNP and One Nation.

The Albanese Labor Government has betrayed us all.

Despite all evidence to the contrary they think a single piece of legislation can solve issues with social media - but ignore evidence on solutions for gambling harms.

We’ve been betrayed! 😞😞 #auspol #qt

Last night @davidpocock.bsky.social and I read onto the Hansard an interview by the President of Nauru that the Albanese Government has been desperately trying to keep secret.

It shows Nauru plans to send refugees to places they fled. No wonder the secrecy.

If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

HEY FRIENDS

For @thepointau.bsky.social, I decided to do the unthinkable and just actually check whether Australia's gas exports are being a magical climate solution and displacing shittonnes of Asian coal

You know what I found, but you will enjoy me saying it:

Another brave whistleblower ignored so offshore detention corruption and crimes can continue. Home Affairs' 'significant probity breach'.

No shortage of evidence so where is the #NACC?

Life as a Home Affairs whistleblower
Four years ago, Home Affairs assistant secretary Derek Elias attempted to report corruption in offshore contracts – the government's response has left him unwell and in financial turmoil.
