Labor has teamed up with the Liberals with a last minute deal to pass dangerous new laws limiting speech and political expression. The Greens condemn the major parties for rushing through these laws that will have real impacts on people trying to speak out for human rights and against genocide.

Israel has killed at least 451 Palestinians and injured 1,251 since the Ceasfire was declared. More than 100 of those deaths are children. Meanwhile phase 1 of the ceasefire agreement only delivered 1 out of the 5 actions agreed to.
Basically the ceasefire never happened.

Israel’s genocide against Palestinians continues. Bombs are dropped on Gaza, people are starved, babies are frozen to death, and aid is blocked. All the while, the international “community” appoints war criminals to lead a so-called “peace process.” Gruesome. Shameless.

I wonder how this news was received by pastor of a local UMC, who deep into 2024 would not call the genocide a genocide. He preached some good sermons on Bonhoeffer, though🤔
United Methodist Church divests from Israel
The United Methodist Church (UMC) will divest from Israel bonds and from other governments maintaining illegal military occupations, making it the first church in the world to make such a pledge.

Time to end AUKUS, remove US bases and chart an independent, principled and safe defence and foreign policy for Australia. Cringing in fear under the tattered US umbrella while it’s being used to beat up US allies is no longer a credible plan.

If you know anyone that works for the government, it's completely reasonable to cut them out of your lives and tell them to fuck themselves Fascism is fascim. Complicity is complicity. Fighting authoritarianism isn't just screaming slogans, it's making fascists uncomfortable.

Imagine a political ideology so evil, so despised, so racist and murderous, so globally unpopular - but also so entrenched in Western establishment depravity - that your government (with the opposition), would seek to make criticism and protest of it illegal. Imagine that.

I may be entirely mistaken but it seems likely a lot of people are being wrongly led to believe a person is linked to terrorism, or has approved of terrorism, or was intending to use 'hateful rhetoric', and a competent defamation lawyer might like to take this one for a light gallop.

Giving in to the Zionist lobby and banning a Palestinian writer, a racist decision they should’ve known better than doing, was met with the anger it deserves. Australians won’t stand for foreign influence by genocide supporters.
