This government is a pack of utter bastards. Isn’t Labor meant to be FOR the workers?
Young people pay tax. They pay GST even if they don’t earn enough to pay income tax.
How do they expect any worker to save enough for retirement?
#Labor is for employers.
Absolute fucking traitors.

BREAKING: The Albanese Labor Government just joined with the Coalition to vote against an inquiry into AUKUS proposed by the Greens.

41m ago 07.28 AEDT Josh Butler Josh Butler Labor MP to shave off his beard in hopes of raising $100,000 One of parliament’s biggest characters, Labor MP Dan Repacholi, is shaving off his enormous beard today in the name of charity. The member for Hunter, a former Olympian and Commonwealth Games champion in pistol shooting, has worn his long beard for many years but has decided to take it all off in a bid to raise $100,000 for the Mark Hughes Foundation, Royal Flying Doctors Service and CareFlight. Dan Repacholi will shave off his famous beard today for charity. View image in fullscreen Dan Repacholi will shave off his beard today for charity.

Charity is a failure of government
Two of the charities @danrepacholimp.bsky.social is raising funds for in particular - careflight and royal flying doctors - should have their services fully funded by governments

Reminder that Mount Rushmore was designed by a white supremacist and literal Klansman as a deliberate desecration of a site sacred to multiple Indigenous nations. Imagine if a Klansman blew up St. Peter's Basilica or the Western Wall and built a statue of Trump instead. That's what Rushmore is.

Trump meets Albanese, and leaves with his wallet, his keys and his bank details.

It is my understanding that David Wakeham @wakehamamr.bsky.social died on 7 August by suicide, secondary to housing instability caused by the apathy and malice of the Queensland and Australian Governments.

I met David once, at a Senate inquiry. I did not know them well. They deserved better.

Reminder that the US under both R and D administrations sent billions of dollars in weapons to Saudi Arabia, including illegal cluster munitions, to kill Yemeni kids.

And the US, under both R and D administrations, is still sending billions of dollars in weapons for the UAE to do genocide in Sudan

This isn’t diplomacy. It’s just supporting fascism.

The government is happy to lock kids up at 10 but will not allow kids on social media till they're 16.

Coal and gas corporations will love Labor’s utter failure of a climate target.

To be clear: I abhor gun violence. I abhor political violence. That's why I'm an abolitionist, an antizionist, and a socialist. It's also why I opposed Charlie Kirk, who supported political violence and gun violence.

The US wants Australia for the money, it wants us for the bases, and then they treat us with contempt.

Australia poised to recognise Palestinian state as soon as today Prime Minister Anthony Albanese is preparing to imminently announce Australia’s plan to recognise a Palestinian state, following moves by France, the UK and Canada.

Will they pair it with ending the two-way arms trade and sanctioning Israel?

To be fair, Mia Freedman is a Zionist.

Of course Labor rusted-ons let both of these slide. When Labor and Liberal team up to vote for a problematic bill or against a progressive bill, they don’t care. But when the Greens vote with Liberal on remotely anything, they get mad. It’s hypocritical!

For instance, Labor teamed up with Liberal to vote against the Greens’ bill calling for the recognition of Palestine last year. Not to mention that Labor also teamed up with Liberal to vote against Lidia Thorpe’s UNDRIP bill ensuring basic protections for First Nations people.

I am so fucking sick and tired of Labor rusted-ons complaining when the Greens vote with the Liberals but are fine with Labor voting with the Liberals to block progressive policies.

It was already part of the axis of evil because it was funding genocide, been saying this for like 2 years now

The Gaza genocide won’t be forgotten. There’s not going to be a home for this style of politics anymore. Trump could have cultivated one, but he’d rather have blood. So, you’re fucked, y’all. Fix your hearts or die.

I’m sorry, Labor defenders, but Labor isn’t progressive. If Albo’s progressive, then sitting on a chair is exercise. Labor and Liberal need to be voted out.
I also say Liberal because they’re much worse, and they should be voted last.

Just a reminder that both Labor and Liberal both voted against Lidia Thorpe’s UNDRIP bill that would’ve ensured basic protections for Aboriginal people – and considering how Labor was advocating for the Voice referendum, it’s hypocritical on Labor’s end.

This happened today on Al-Rasheed Street, the road people use to return to northern Gaza!
Again, this is not a ceasefire!

They also didn’t ban Azerbaijan despite its genocide of Armenians. Roughly four years ago, Efendi called Armenians terrorists at the wake of Azerbaijan’s ethnic cleansing of Artsakh, and they didn’t ban her or Azerbaijan from participating in Eurovision.
Eurovision’s racism is crystal clear.

With Eurovision recently announcing the representative of Israhell for this year’s contest, reminder to boycott Eurovision. They banned Russia at the wake of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, but not Israhell despite its ongoing genocide of Palestinians.

Criticism of popular headcanons does not ruin anyone’s fun. In fact, headcanons that are justified in bigotry deserve to be criticised.

You might wanna unfriend Wothen/Keegan.
