Many progressive voters are currently disappointed &/or pissed off with Labor & want to punish them.
No matter who they vote for, people need to put the LNP last in their preferences.
To make sure their preference does not end up with the LNP.

Finally, a headline which points out that Trump is LYING, rather than just quoting him and burying the fact-check in the fifth paragraph! More of this please. Trump lies CONSTANTLY and for a decade, the media have failed to characterise it as a problem.

Anybody who publicly shames a successful hard-working Aboriginal woman for charging 4 public speaking is not only uninformed but likely has an agenda born from the vilification of Indigenous ppl in an enabled racist society

These same blowhards wld b criticising Indigenous ppl who were out of work
Yesterday I was publicly shamed on this platform for charging for my public speaking & its not the first time.Outside of the fact I chose to funnel my success into working for no salary in my charity everyday& funded a scholarship program-I’ll never be ashamed of being a self made Aboriginal woman2

I wonder who stirs the pot?🤨

In this case in the US a Jewish man mistakes 2 Israeli tourists for Palestinians & starts shooting at them.

Dutton stirs the same pot in this country. We’re lucky not every psycho can own a gun

Clive Palmer has been unable to register UAP b4 the election - so does exactly as predicted in another mammoth effort to interfere in an election - he creates a new party

White House says Elon Musk is “just an adviser” with no power to make decisions.

Uh-huh🙄

Somebody should tell Trump. He’s made a statement that Musk is leading the DOGE.

Whatever this is or isn’t - it’s illegal & against the US constitution.

Not unlike a coup.

Spudnik’s nuclear costings are a fallacy

Their quoted kilowatt of capacity is just 1 furphy. It would cost a great deal more than renewables

That’s if we ever get to end-stage build

Plus hidden running costs, massive building costs

Let’s not mention insurance.

As moderate Libs hve left the party- Dutton has pushed the coalition into something that resembles Trumpian lite.
