The hypocrisy seems par for the course not just for all politicians on all sides, but us too. We're incompatible with nature, despite our dependence on it.

Scamps presses Albanese over claims of staff offer to Coalition Independent MP Sophie Scamps has questioned Prime Minister Anthony Albanese about reports that he offered his Liberal–National Coalition rivals extra staff in exchange for their support for the Labor ...

He's even less suitable to lead this country than we thought ...

"Mr Albanese dodged the question ..."

Slimy, gollum-like, sycophant ...

Hanson-Young backs Wildlife Recovery call for urgent funding to save injured native animals Australia’s struggling wildlife rescue sector is calling for the Albanese government to fund a national system for treating injured and orphaned native animals.

"They are part of our life, our culture,” she said.

“They belong here just as much as we do.”

Given what we've done to our wildlife -

"More than 100 Australian species have been formally recognized as extinct since European colonization in 1788, including 34 mammals ..."

... I don't think we do

It's utterly obscene. A symptom of the arrogant, unchecked, self-entitled, narcissistic & meglomanical greed. The beginning of the end. We're witnessing the fall of the "American Empire".

Could they be any more contemptuous, any more insulting to the average American?

In one month, they spent
$2m - Alaskan king crab
$6.9m - lobster tail
$1m - salmon.
The Defense Department:$140,000 - doughnuts
$124,000 - ice cream machines
$26,000 - sushi prep tables
$15.1 million - ribeye steak."

Way better to be 'difficult' than to be a sycophantic, lily-livered, obsequious, fence-sitting leader of an equally sycophantic ... blah blah ... political party.

Fuel security fears spark overseas talks for minister Australia's resources minister is heading to Japan for talks with her global counterparts about shoring up fuel supplies.

Oh bwaha-fucking-ha ...

"‘Un-Australian’: Aussies blasted over fuel panic buying."

What absolutely is Australian is Albo getting blasted over 'socially cohesing' with the "US govt" (aka the Trump family) WHICH - Albo, what? hasn't realised - is making shitloads 💰💰 over forcing the cost of fuel UP?

The difficult truth Writing exclusively for Crikey, Grace Tame reflects on the prime minister calling her 'difficult', the media storm following her pro-Palestine chant, and which social causes do and don't ignite public...

It's not 'difficult' at all to have Grace Tame & leaders like her in this country. We're so very lucky.

May more & more of them emerge - in droves - to balance out the absolute crazy-making the current & opposition govts are perpetuating ... & perpetrating.

For Albanese, joining a global atrocity is far less “difficult” than Grace Tame - The Shot Lack of widespread accountability has always protected horrible men. This layer of protection has lasted so long and grown so...

May we all follow Grace's lead & be as 'difficult' as is needed to get Albanese's attention & to ensure he's attentive to what is common decency & public interest, nevermind what's legal. May our govt NOT find their way into the crosshairs of the ICC unless that's necessary to gain his attention.

(But, not a single word incorrect though, from McKim ... we're all embarrassed that our govt has jumped into bed with a thieving paedophile thug rapist. 😤 Furious, too.)

Gobsmacking. Seems to be par for the course with all our 'leadership', 'treading the fine line' so as not to 'upset' either "Kings", or Bibi, & threading absolute & utter 🐂💩 instead of the truth, to ensure that. Even more gobsmacking is they missed the memo that we can see it all, now, live.

First people arrested under new Queensland laws banning 'from the river to the sea' chant The Queensland government is under fire from activists who consider the hate speech laws to be "hallmarks of an authoritarian police state".

Well ... I'm not in QLD & I agree 👇

"... activists say (that) those words & "globalise the intifada" are calls for Palestinian freedom & human rights, rather than violence or the destruction of Israel."

Israel must be held accountable for its war crimes. And that's NOT an antisemitic statement.

We get them even if we don't vote for them. (I didn't & won't again).

We need an entirely new system, this 19th century devised, 20th century enacted farce of a system with two available primary options (that in fact are the same as each other) is a nonsensical way to govern in the 21st century.

Australia could have been world leaders in the production & use of renewables.

The cost of living would not have risen so sharply, the economy more equitable & fairer, CO2 emissions would be less than they are, & our environment far healthier.

Shame about our successively useless governments.

What possibly could?! Thugs!

France has sent in "8 frigates, two helicopter carriers & their nuclear powered aircraft carrier, the Charles de Gaulle", to support Lebanon which bibi's also targeting under the guise of going after Hezbollah but in fact to thieve their land & add it to the Gaza haul.

They're not friends of us or any other species needing to survive in that 'natural environment', either, if their obsequious and bull-headed ignoring of climate science, in favour of the big miners, is anything to go by.

He is absolutely the worst PM we've ever had in terms of being a sycophant to the US & a 'lily livered' fence-sitter on things that matter most to us. (Morrison - of course - takes the cake for 'the' worst, ie: most useless/laziest & god help us all if Angus gets elected!)

So has the WA govt ... and they just fined Alcoa $55m for the illegal clearing of jarrah forest to mine for bauxite. But, that equates to only $27,000 per hectare for restoration. They've rendered it 'unrestorable' & Murray Watt has approved their continued operations. Enraged ... to say the least

The Bibi and Don Effect: Global economic crisis created by the US and Israel shows the need to unlink from America Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu have brought the world to the edge of an economic crisis. Sensible risk management dictates that Australia needs to delink itself from the sources of major threats.

"...Trump & ...Netanyahu have brought the world to the edge of an economic crisis. ... Australia needs to delink itself from the sources of major threats."

How many of us have raised our voices asking our govt to do just that until they can behave like an equal & fair player on the world stage.

I had not read that. Thanks for the heads up. I did read that China has - or had - significant business interests in oil in Venezuela but have not seen anything covering that further. Be interesting to know whether Trump's stunts are aimed at blocking China's energy needs?

Biggest move in history to tackle soaring oil prices amid war panic The International Energy Agency says 400 million barrels of oil will be released from emergency reserves amid the war on Iran.

So much for 'reducing emissions' ...

"US Interior Secretary Doug Burgum ... did not believe the world faced an energy shortage."

We're sure as hell facing an 'energy crisis'. And one of 'intelligence lacking', too.

And, is Trump still hoarding the 300 Billion barrels he stole from Venezuela?
