Police authorisation of Sydney neo-Nazi demonstration sparks calls for protest law review A neo-Nazi protest received NSW Police authorisation to go ahead outside NSW parliament on Saturday morning.

I don't understand why the NSN isn't banned, in Australia.

Just spitballing here, but wouldn’t power prices go down if power companies weren’t allowed to gouge customers?

Labor doubles NDIS workforce to 10,000, driving public service blowout The government’s 38,000 public service hiring spree has led to an explosion of staff with just months of experience in the sector.

ICE is still being paid.
Congress is still being paid.

Private jets are still being bought.

The White House is still being renovated.

In the most prosperous country in the history of the world...

ICE is inflicting a lifetime of trauma on families. And it’s being carried out in the name of the United States of America.

'Broad, unspoken consensus': silent Labor MPs want action on gambling Andrew Wilkie has asked the PM to allow a free vote on banning gambling advertising and it appears many Labor MPs would support it.

Good on Andrew Wilke for persisting
Shame on Albanese for not doing what most Australians want

🚨I can’t tell where this officer who swore to β€œprotect and serve” by way of starvation is being filmed, but I can see he takes great pleasure in depravity. What a disgrace to humanity! Shame!

According to the video, this woman was reporting sexual abuse in Riverside Court House & was accosted by ICE.

What if she were your daughter, sister, mother or wife?

How does this #ICELawlessness make us safer?

Let this sink in. The President of the United States is now appealing a court order forcing him to feed starving children.

Morales: I don’t care if you’re the most individualistic person on the planetβ€”because you β€œlift yourself up by your bootstraps” and think government should stay out of your business and β€œdon’t tread on me.” Climate change is already treading on you, and you should care about this issue.

What is the purpose of Barnaby Joyce?

Next to no infrastructure has been built in Joyce’s electorate in the past decade, other than the ill-thought-out relocation of the Australian Pesticides and Veterinary Medicines Authority to Armidale. The man who promised to build 100 dams has built net zero. satpa.pe/b7rYz3e
