Australia has an opportunity to get out of the AUKUS security pact. We should take it.

AUKUS ties Australia ever closer to an increasingly volatile and aggressive America.

Eating salmon? You're killing Tasmania.

This Parliament has gutted our environment laws to protect an industry selling salmon from diseased pens & sending the Maugean skate extinct.

The Government wants to weaken our national environment laws and benefit destructive, extractive industries.

I've signed the @australiainstitute.org.au petition, calling on the Parliament to stop them - will you join me?

"That ‘multibillion’ industry? Well, according to the ATO it’s paid no tax since 2019. It did sell $4 billion worth of fish, yes. But profits went off-shore."

Great piece from @amyremeikis.bsky.social, originally published in our fortnightly newsletter, then shared with @thenewdaily.bsky.social.

The government boasts that emissions are now 28.2% below 2005 levels.
Sounds great, except that is only when you include the very dodgy "emissions" from land clearing and land use (there was massive land clearing in 2005).
The fall of "actual emissions" is a mere 1.8%.

Prisons don’t create safer communities, so why is Australia spending billions on building them?
Research shows 37 new prisons have been built in Australia since 2000. But the evidence shows increased incarceration doesn’t help reduce crime.
