Under Dutton’s leadership, the Liberal party swung further to the right. Labor has simply expanded into that void. So, I wouldn’t call Labor a centre-left party; they are the centrist party. Meanwhile, the Greens vote remains largely unchanged: they’ve lost seats due to the loss of preference flows.

According to the AEC website, none of the Pre-Poll places have reported in for the Melbourne or Wills seats. Result still not certain for either seat. #auspol #greens

If you're not keen, just vote Green.

Or, you know, just do a little bit of research. There's ABC's Vote Compass, Build a Ballot, and several others to help in that regard.

Your vote matters, and we can't afford to be led astray by misinformation campaigns funded by multinationals. #auspol

ABC News Australia interviewing a Shell spokesperson about a potential domestic gas reservation policy, yet failing to ask whether Australia would be better off actually charging royalties on all (not just some) gas exports. #auspol

"Let's get Australia back on track" is just a Liberal spin on MAGA. They can't even think of an original slogan. 🙄 #auspol

All the diversions and turnarounds of flights headed to LHR this morning. It's fascinating to see where certain airlines decided to divert their flights. #Heathrow

Great to see the Greens push for 50c fares on public transport across the country, but it really needs to be properly funded by introducing congestion or zonal charges on inner city and arterial roads. Traffic should be pushed onto highways/tunnels/bridges by removing/subsidising tolls.

ISTG. There needs to be a moderation list to block/mute those people who blatantly post text as an image in order to get more interaction/visibility. They are undermining the effectiveness of muted words.

Traditional/social media are like a moth to a flame in discussing the shenanigans of certain politicians. Honestly, the best way of collectively robbing them of their effectiveness is to mute/block all mention of them. If only for your personal mental health hygiene. Out of sight, out of mind.

Silo is the first TV series in a long time that has made me want to read the books it was based on.

I don’t know why I didn’t move to Melbourne sooner! I’m loving it here!1

I really don't care for posts of images of text that could just be text-only. I wish @bsky.app ran OCR over images in posts so muted words would be effective.
