Giving Jillian Segal even more influence over Australian policy when she still hasn't denounced far-right group "Advance" (which she bankrolls) is extremely poor governing.

It's over five months since Antisemitism Envoy Jillian Segal made headlines for being one of the biggest funders of highly divisive, far-right political lobby group "Advance".
She has at all times refused to denounce Advance, its bigotry and racist hate.

EVs beat petrol cars on lifetime emissions — even on “dirty” grids.
Battery production is carbon-intensive, but EVs quickly repay that debt and end up 21–71% cleaner over 250,000 km.
We can’t wait for perfect grids: electrify transport and clean the grid now.

Time to stop tiptoeing around and step on the gas to ease inflation
For a decade, a disaster has unfolded. We've run short of gas through indecision and incompetence, and that's driving energy costs and inflation. We need a solution and an unlikely source may have one...

Don Farrell’s power extends to every ministerial office. The PM relies on him factionally and strategically – and will benefit from an ambitious plan to expand the parliament.
