Before people in NSW see this Ad: 30% say don’t #raisetheage of criminal responsibility, 27 unsure, 33 support. After? 26% don’t, 20 unsure, 54 support. THAT IS HUGE. The evidence is in, hearts and minds now, hearts and minds. #nswpol youtu.be/XEYJ0tz2qgo

watched Sky News debate last night, then the comedy of all the Sky commentators saying Dutton was a clear winner until audience vote came out 44 Albo and 35 Dutton. Was worth the $5 for a subscription. #auspol

Just sharing that as of today i am officially retired after 60 years in the workforce, yes I started at 15 as an ‘office girl’. I’ve been incredibly fortunate to have a career that has allowed me to work for justice and healthy communities.

STOP REPORTING AHMAD!!

He’s a real person in need and being BOMBED by fascists in Israel and reporting him to bsky to get his account taken down means you’re on the side of zionism and death.

So knock it off liberals!!!

When Peter Dutton criticises Albo for relationship with trading partners (meaning Trump) someone should remind him about China banning imports from Australia under Coalition. #auspol

To face a severe weather front, or front up to a billionaire fundraiser…

That is the question.

can someone tell me how @smithforflinders.bsky.social an independent candidate, who claims he is supported by small individual donations can afford TV ads, hundreds of tshirts, huge corflutes, 2 offices, flood of social media ads and countless events providing free drinks and food?

Listening to bloke on Q&A talk about US being so generous to protect democracy. Have we forgotten their actions in Latin and South America, in Vietnam, Iraq? They have worked to protect their own interests, not others. #auspil

It seems relations have completely broken down between Trumps America & Ukraine.

Trump & a bunch of his MAGA bro boys held a conference in the Oval Office where they teamed up & bullied Zelensky for the cameras. Putin will be proud.

Australia & our real allies need to step up in place.

i don’t think that’s the answer but there are a very small group of young people who are behaving violently and causing fear which is then exacerbated by the media and law and order zealots. It is complex and yes it should be addressed earlier but what do we do when they use violence?

So @peterdutton thinks PM should be stronger over Chinese ships in Pacific waters. What would he like the PM to do? Send a non existent submarine to intercept?

based on what evidence? Look at US. look at Germany. Look at what happened to Greens in Prahran and Queensland.

3 years is not that long when you have to juggle a needs. Labor is moving in the right direction, not as fast as I’d like but there is movement. The reality is electorates around the world are moving to the right. There is not an appetite for social reform

yes it is and yes i work with people on Job Seeker and DSP. I have mental health issues in my family. We are a wealthy country and we always need to spend more but you can’t fix 10 years of neglect immediately.

you would not say that if you were a worker on a low wage, a veteran needing support, a user or worker of childcare, in the aged care system, using the new Emergency Care Clinics etc etc. But keep on with your carping and help Dutton win the next election.

There is no uni party ticket The coalition voted against every single cost of living, housing and climate change initiative. If Dutton wins it will as much be the left constantly saying Labor has done nothing as it will be the media who are all too ready to spread his lies and fear making.

i almost threw my phone at the television when Trump said Gaza will be the riviera of the Middle East. Then hearing the Jewish envoy say the Jewish community support Trump and his approach. I hope the Jewish community speaks out strongly against that. #gaza

Good to hear Sarah Race, Labor candidate for Flinders talking about Labor’s achievements: Tax cuts for lower incomes, Real wages growth, Energy rebate, shared equity housing, 31 billion into housing, Fee free tafe, Strengthening Medicare etc etc. Sarah is a real local who knows her community.

Funding to electrify homes expanded as Bowen slams 'nuclear fantasy' The federal government is pushing ahead with its renewable energy investment by expanding a scheme that subsidises property owners who are decarbonising their homes.

Albanese govt announces community grants for low income earners to shift from gas to electrical appliances. Scheme will cut power bills & reduce emissions. Minister Chris Bowen slams Peter Dutton's "nuclear fantasy" alternative #auspol www.abc.net.au/news/2025-01...

This Auschwitz commemoration is so affecting. And yet the current world perpetrators of such racist horrors are Israeli Jews. So hard to reconcile this paradox. #abc730

Camp Sovereignity

At dawn, near the Shrine, at a place called Camp Sovereignty, First Nations people, and allies, began a day of mourning by reading out hundreds of massacres that took place in Victoria since colonisation. This is the truth of our history, and on January 26, the very least we can do is acknowledge it
