If this is the ALP taking our protest rights away, under what feasible scenario will we ever get them back? The Libs in power will push further and Labor will let them through every time. Who needs a Trump? #auspol

In a 24-hour span, Trump spouts vile racism about Somalis, SCOTUS reinstates Texas’s racially gerrymandered maps, the Pentagon murders more black or brown fishermen—makes you wonder whether there’s some ugly unifying principle at work here
They’re killing people as a twitter joke. It’s depraved. Can’t let yourself lose the capacity to be appalled and disgusted and outraged by this.

Liberals aren't alone as net zero sceptics — but the data doesn't lie
The strange macho appeal of fossilised vegetation means that 30 years of annual United Nations meetings to stop the planet heating any more have been a bust.

Don’t laugh off the suggestion that buffoon #BarnabyJoyce might lead #OneNation #Auspol’s nativist populist micro party. The UK media seems to be driving Farage & Reform towards government.

She was arrested for holding a sign reading:

“I do not support the proscription of Palestine Action”

How that would warrant arrest is very unclear. I wonder if the police here even understand the boundaries of the bizarre law they’ve been forced to enforce.
