Right now it feels like this madness is not going to end and in fact it’s going to get a whole lot worse.

We can never give up working for decency, integrity and a safe future for our kids and grandkids.

And we can never forget the enablers. #auspol

Wondering whether any highly paid CEOs, sports stars or other non-experts now calling for a RC into Bondi said a word when the LNP rejected calls for a Banking RC or a Robodebt RC. 🤔

Who organised this, and why does the ABC not state this?
Josh Frydenberg?
Why should this matter, when petitions signed by a far greater number of ordinary Australians are routinely ignored?

The attempt to now discredit this guy because he didn’t do what Sky News wanted is (in a long list) one of the most disgusting things I’ve ever seen in Australian media. What an absolute disgrace.
Saved lives *and* screwed Sky News? Put down your glasses, we have found the Australian of the Year

@mitchmctaggart.bsky.social once again provides the finest summary of the year in Australian TV (with appropriate levels of snark).

If you have access to Binge, go and check it out - you won’t disappointed!

(I would definitely watch Old B*tch!! 😂)
Twins, clickbait, nazis, plus a smattering of good things here and there, I promise. Recap the year in Australian TV with me (a hottie) on The Last Year of Television. Out Monday on @binge.com.au ❤️

For those with Binge, @mitchmctaggart.bsky.social's seventh annual 'Last Year of Television' is now available. And all the old ones, too, of course.

Too easy Albo. Royal Commission terms of ref to include Netanyahu effect on antisemitism and Murdoch's The Israelian & other media peddling lies for a foreign lobby (their effect).

That'll sort it

The Coalition has mistaken the unity it has found as a party and like minded political bedfellows over its response for actual unity. Its feverish rhetoric comes from the brief cohesiveness it’s discovered after so many fractures, rather than an organic groundswell. It also will not hold.
Remember, Ley & news.corp et al aren't talking to you, or even about you. They're screaming at each other & mistaking the echo as a response.

Most Australians want to honour the victims, have stronger gun laws and to get on with their holidays in peace free of unhinged ranting (relatives excepted).

Sussan Ley completely lacks what it takes to be Prime Minister or even lead a political party.

What a grubby nothing of a person she has revealed herself to be this past week.

I suspect many Jewish Australians would be disgusted by how grossly she has used this tragedy.

Truly pathetic.

The type of performance that has your colleagues start doing the numbers.

Not just stupid, but stupid politics - gives Albanese an easy chance to show himself as a leader and take the high road.

Most voters don't even know who Ley is. So this will be their first impression
Sussan Ley spent the press conference blaming the PM, then turned on Penny Wong. Totally over the top. Not a good look. Disgraceful. #auspol #bondi

Sussan Ley is clearly so far out of her depth that she deserves to be sacked by her party, purely for her own good.

This is perhaps the most contemptible thing any political leader has ever said in this country.

The sooner she f*cks off to obscurity the better for Australia.

Never forget it took less than a day for the right-wing conservative forces in Australia politics and media to turn the Bondi massacre into their own political grandstanding in order to sew division.

Contemptible.

The idea that changing a definition to include criticism of Israel as being anti-Semitic and cracking down even further on anti-genocide protests would have in any way made anyone safer is madness. That the Coalition have so comprehensively jumped to blame here is insanity. Who is this speaking to?

When the Libs blame the Albanese government for Bondi, they are, by extension, blaming Australians who just voted overwhelmingly to re-elect it.

Liberals spent a year claiming Labor wasn't doing enough to suppress criticism of Israel, blaming it for rising antisemitism.

The people disagreed.

Post after post from every conservative in the country seeking to grift some political points from #bondi. Ley, Joyce, Hanson, Morrison, Abbott, Howard, Frydenberg. All fecklessly fanning division. All ignoring the ongoing genocide and war crimes in Gaza by zealots. Compliant media. 😡

I've never been more convinced Australia has the worst mainstream journalists in the world. Simple, thick, racist, ahistorical, bootlicking dipshits that lie and screech more than they think and feel. This weaponisation of a tragedy against anti-genocide voices is grotesque.

lulz Ley is establishing a taskforce into antisemitism, extremism and counter terrorism.

To do what?

Her use of this tragedy to try to keep hold of her leadership has been pretty disgusting. She has been doing nonstop media milking it for all she can.

John Howard pushed for the invasion of Iraq, which was one of the dominoes which created the conditions for ISIS and caused untold human misery we are still dealing with today. He refused to acknowledge racism was a main driver of the Cronulla riots.
