You’d never know it, but this absurd statement is trying to justify pulling an award and funding from writer Karen Wyld. This was done without any process - it was a kneejerk surrender to political pressure because of her views on Palestine.

I wrote this back in October 2023. The genocidal intent and Western propaganda was obvious back then; to hear Wong and Albanese still obfuscate and do nothing now is unforgivable. Their inaction and active support for the genocide should tar the rest of their lives.

The UN has warned that 14,000 babies could die if Israel continues to block humanitarian aid in Gaza.
This would be utterly catastrophic.
The Australian Government must take every action they can to pressure Netanyahu to stop.

I'm sorry but Richard Marles is and always has been a talentless thug from the right from a time when factional warlords could get away with blue murder - Keating would have strung him up by his balls.

Instead of obsessing about Climate 200's crowdfunding to support candidates committed to saving our planet, maybe the media could focus more on Atlas Network's funding of individuals and organisations to promote climate denialism and undermine democracy to benefit the (very) privileged few?
A vote for the Liberal Party of Australia is a vote for the #AtlasNetwork and the destructive and noxious actions, values and beliefs held by individuals, politicians, governments, organisations aligned with it.

On the day Dutton comes out with his law and order announceables - he also wants to reappoint a public servant who broke the code of conduct & had Aust Day honours stripped away.
