After two years of genocide in Gaza, western media still privileges Israeli lives
Mainstream coverage of the Israel-Hamas captives exchange exposes western media's enduring pro-Israel bias, as Israelis are humanised while Palestinians are erased from view

Jillian Segal’s report, the entire double-spaced, decorative and glossy 16 pages of it, is largely insulting dross.

Dear PM @albomp.bsky.social
I am deeply disturbed by the Zionist agenda being pushed by your Govt's Antisemitism Envoy Jillian Segal. The Australian Federal Court has ruled that opposing Zionism and criticising Israel's genocide in Gaza is NOT anti-Semitic. I agree with Dr Max Kaiser. 👇 #auspol

I'm in the occupied West Bank for the Irish Times, as Ireland deliberates whether to become the first European country to ban trade from Israeli settlements considered illegal under international law.

Blame John Howard for enabling super to be used as an inheritance fund instead of just being for funding people’s retirement as Hawke and Keating set it up to be

Super changes will hit those with millions but they say the impact could be devastating
This farming family has millions in super but proposed reforms have left them in a position where they may have to sell the farm.

Worried you might one day have more than $3m in super and then might get less of a tax break?
First off, seriously, you are worried about having $3m in super??
Secondly, as @grogsgamut.bsky.social writes, stop worrying you are not going to ever have $3m

There's a lot of fearmongering about a potential modest change to super tax concessions.
As Greg explains, the changes would only marginally affect the very wealthiest; those with over $3m in super, less than 1% of all Australians.
It's a good idea. @grogsgamut.bsky.social #auspol

Critics of the changes to super tax want to scare you by saying many people will one day be affected.
But their *own* numbers show that very few people under 30 currently working will have more than $3m in super #OffTheCharts @grogsgamut.bsky.social

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.

The two biggest selling cars in Australia are utes.
And if you think they’re all being used for work then you probably believe in a few weeks Santa Claus is going to deliver some presents your way.

A tax system that incentivises people buying big utes for "work" is terrible for the environment.
Emissions from passenger cars have fallen since 2005.
But that has been more than cancelled out by the increase in emissions from utes and other light commercial vehicles.
