Dutton: “I don’t know because I’m not a scientist. Scientists can provide advice.” No, Peter, scientists provide EVIDENCE. Tested and retested. You don’t have to be a scientist to trust science any more than you need to be a brain surgeon to trust a competent brain surgeon. Still in denial.

Israel is the terrorist in the Middle East. Israel is committing unspeakable atrocities in its brutal genocide against the Palestinian people. Israel lies. We know they're lying. And Israel knows that we know. The whole world knows of Israel's crimes against humanity. #IsraeliWarCrimes #GazaGenocide

Big Gas is Taking the Piss.

Australia collects more revenue from HECS than from the Petroleum Resource Rent Tax.

Dutton today on Jews in Australia: "I’ve never seen an element of society ostracised in such a way"

Yeah, that's why they have a much lower life expectancy, earn 25% less than everyone else, and are 17 times more likely to be incarcerated...

Oh wait, no that's another group.. can't think who.

People of Jewish faith are not under attack.

The people of Palestine are being genocided by Zionist Israel, aided and abetted by the USA and Western allies.

No wonder MSM is in a nose dive. The Sydney Morning Herald & The Age’s
foreign affairs and national security correspondent Matthew Knott’s take on the first stage of the Israel-Hamas ceasefire deal is so pro- Zionists it’s hard to read and keep my blood pressure level.

In Australia its a cheaper to cause an oil spill than to get a nursing degree

In Norway they tax their oil industry and give kids free degrees while in Australia we subsidise the oil industry and charge kids a fortune to go to uni

Priorities matter
Accused by a whistleblower of covering up an oil spill that killed dolphins and sea snakes, Santos get fined just $10k 🤯

Santos spends up to $US3.3m per year on a private jet for their executives so I don’t think AUD10k is going to hurt them.

Two decades on, former prime minister John Howard considers the lack of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq as a "setback" but stands by the decision to join the United States in its invasion of the country.

Because he is a lying sack of shit.

Just so we’re all clear, it is a fully established fact that the IDF is directly, deliberately killing civilians in Gaza. There was a time in the early days of the genocide when this could be disputed, but that is no longer true.

High Court rules that Catholic priests are not employees. If so the church is not entitled to all the generous tax exemptions from which they have benefited by claiming priests ARE employees. SMH letter writer raises a good point. 👇 C’mon ATO.

Howard on *his* bugging of the Timor-Leste Cabinet room:
"I don't think any permanent long-term damage has been done.
All I can say in defence of our security agencies, I believed they've always acted in the national interest."

Can we just admit, that, like everything else that Scott Morrison did, AUKUS is a complete & utter stuff-up?

Can we return to good sense?

Own up & say it’s a pointless, expensive waste of money?

Redirect that $1/2 trillion to education, health, housing, welfare, science, ABC, SBS, CSIRO, NDIS?

Howard's lies about "children overboard" during Tampa and his racist boast "We will decide who comes to this country and the circumstances in which they come" was my light bulb moment. Up until then I'd assumed our Govt told us the truth and acted with principles, humanity and decency. 😔 #auspol

The Australian Government gives most of the gas exported from Australia by foreign-owned gas corporations for free.

They pay no royalties.

The gas industry is ripping Australians off, and our governments are letting them.
