Australia to recognise Palestinian statehood, New Zealand may follow Prime Minister Anthony Albanese says two-state solution is ‘humanity’s best hope’ to end suffering in Gaza.

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese says two-state solution is ‘humanity’s best hope’ to end suffering in Gaza.

I mean, if we’re honest, two fifths of fuck all on the ground. But it’s symbolic, and that has meaning in its own right. But we are also just barely a middle power, so the impact is less than say France or UK.

Yeah, true. Did amuse me for a moment, though.

I only just realised the proportion of Labor voters who support recognising a Palestinian state is higher than the Greens, but I wonder if that is a ‘who did you vote for at the last election’ artefact.

For the ‘why didn’t people post about Gaza before now’ scolds, I think the 11 point shift from ‘don’t know’ is pretty telling. Not everyone reads Green Left Weekly or was involved in Stupol 20 years ago. They rely on a small pool of media resources who were also shitscared of reporting on the issue.

“This decision...puts Australia at odds with the USA, our most important ally” - Opposition Leader Sussan Ley.

I suspect a vast majority of Australians would want our government to be at odds with Trump on most issues, especially on Gaza.

It’s only ever women of a certain age in Facebook groups who call me a bully for disagreeing with them, and never say the same about men who say *exactly* the same things I do.
