There was a time when the National Broadcaster was part of my families daily life. A trusted friend, so to speak.

Since everything and everyone recognisable has been stripped away, it’s unrecognisable to me anymore. Joe O’Brien, Laura Tingle and John Lyon. Kim Williams very big question mark.

The Siege of a National Treasure: Why 'Our ABC' Feels Like a Stranger There was a time when the Australian Broadcasting Corporation was as reliable and unremarkable as the morning sun. It was, in the truest sense, “Our ABC.” You might grumble about a show you didn’t lik...

The Albanese Government has still said nothing. Thousands of Lebanese-Australians, not a peep from their government. Seems Labor cannot see the victims when they are killed by Israeli and US bombs.

Australia says it is “not involved” in the US-Israel war against Iran.
But intelligence systems, communications networks and US bases on Australian soil are deeply integrated into the war effort, Peter Cronau writes.

Two Anglo Australian men have attempted terrorist attacks in the past 30 days driven by white supremacy ideology. So when can I expect Pauline Hanson & Angus Taylor to front media calling on Anglo Australians to show they’ve values compatible with ours.

I believe in looking after working class Australians and making sure there is a safety net for all. Guess who doesn’t? Pauline #Hanson and #OneNation who doesn’t give a stuff about the working class and is in the pockets of billionaires.
