I so want to hear from the athletes and business leaders who declined the invitation to join those demanding a RC.
Who made the approach?
What inducements, if any, were offered?
Who is coordinating this entitled shitshow?

How about business leaders first institute all the recommendations from the Royal Commission into Misconduct in the Banking, Superannuation and Financial Services Industry?

You would think one fucking Very Serious Commentator would’ve realised this by now, but seems no
It would be practically and legally impossible to hold a royal commission that goes anywhere near the actions or motivations of the accused killer, before his criminal proceedings are concluded, which could take years. That limitation would render the royal commission itself pointlessly premature.

I've never been more convinced Australia has the worst mainstream journalists in the world. Simple, thick, racist, ahistorical, bootlicking dipshits that lie and screech more than they think and feel. This weaponisation of a tragedy against anti-genocide voices is grotesque.

I think for many; last night felt like a moral victory after the pain of the voice referendum. It was so easy to fear Australia had lost its way; lost its kindness.
It certainly felt that way for so many of my family & friends.
It feels safer today.
Thank you Australia.

It’s not just Dutton and Liberal National Coalition defeated at this election. It is lies and hate, it is division and extremism, it is a political party reliant on fear campaigns that polarise and spread fear and confusion. Australia has said no to MAGA politics. This is bigger than an election win

The Trump regime - like Brexit - is showing us how much it costs a country - socially, culturally, economically - to make democratic decisions based on hate and division. This is what’s behind Australia’s fears of Dutton. Hate is not a smart way to make democratic decisions. Is everyone listening?

Australian universities are not 'funded' by the US. Some joint research projects receive funding from US agencies, totalling less than 1% of expenditure on our universities.
Let's fill this small gap publicly, and support our universities in telling Trump to piss off.
