You won’t see honest, heartfelt opinion like this in the Murdoch media.

Misleading headline on guardian story about G7

Misleading headline on guardian story about G7

This headline is incorrect. You don’t snub a meeting. A snub is a deliberate act against an individual or a group. It could be argued that he’s snubbing the rest of the G7 but to single out Albo is lazy parochial nonsense.

Hypothetical but would Bob Hawke have publicly condemned the appalling behaviour of Netanyahu and his cabal? I say ‘yes’ because I know he was privately very critical of the Israeli right. The silence of the Labor Government is disgraceful and beyond perplexing

Contemplating this line from the Guardian piece on the ALP’s campaign director Paul Erickson. It might take some time.

Journo mate Doug Holden voting in Bega
“young lady wearing lib shirt, HTVs in hand answered these questions: yes, she was out of town EB, not a member of Libs, Libs had asked them, expenses covered, she didn’t know any policies, and hadn’t a clue about what separation of church and state meant.

Exclusive Brethren are secretly campaigning for Coalition The Plymouth Brethren Christian Church don’t vote but are sending hundreds of their people to hand out how-to-vote cards.

“A separatist Christian sect which tells its members to hate the world and which objects to voting is actively campaigning for the Liberal and National parties ahead of Saturday’s federal election.”

This is a very disturbing turn of events. We don’t need these zealots injecting themselves into Australian elections.

'Public has a right to know': Peter Dutton failed to declare interest in a family trust A Four Corners investigation finds Opposition Leader Peter Dutton failed to disclose his interest in a family trust for two years.

Just incase you were wondering why Dutton decided yesterday to label the ABC as hate media..

A public register of child sex offenders will do more harm than good It might be a popular policy, but it is likely to lead to vigilantism, have no impact on rates of offending and offers no support to victims of sex crimes.

Do some in the political media have permanent amnesia? Twice in Government the LNP and Peter Dutton announced a register for sex offenders, allocating budget money. It never happened. Maybe ask him why not? And what happened to Super for Survivors, also promised? www.smh.com.au/politics/fed...

Good to see international property tycoon Amelia Hamer putting Monique Ryan before candidate "Vader D". ↘️

I reckon "Palpatine, S" might have got the nod though, this being the Liberal Party and all ...

I hope @alifrance.bsky.social is reminding the people of Dickson that if they vote for Dutton and even if he holds the seat, he’ll be dumped as opposition leader and likely quit parliament. Save yourselves a by-election.

Dutton’s use of his son to highlight housing affordability is his Hawaii trip and “don’t hold a hose” moment combined. It will haunt him into his political obscurity.

The issue might be that Albo can’t see this. And who’s tough enough in the party to tell him?
