Stefanovic has already started, but no doubt Sandilands will be going “independent” too - let off the leash outside ACMA rules to spread lies, hate and bigotry for profit the quickest. It will be ugly to watch!

YouTube livestream at 2pm with @IRanalyst Dr Scott Burchill. Lots to chat about. No holds-barred. 'Free flowing' on Australia, the US, Israel and the invasion of Iran

Look - Canberra is more expensive in general than other jurisdictions, but choosing to have your 'cost of living crisis press conference' in one of the most expensive suburbs in Canberra,where the median house price is $2.1m and luxury cars are parked all around you is maybe not the greatest optics

"US military commanders have been invoking extremist Christian rhetoric about biblical “end times” to justify involvement in the Iran war to troops, according to complaints made to a watchdog group."

Cut-price Costello Tim Wilson on Sky just now: "It’s very clear to me that when there’s an increase in petrol prices, Jim Chalmers collects more excise revenue."
Excise is not based on price changes. It's indexed twice a year in line with inflation.
if you are near a TV tune in to the ABC and hear the mighty Tahlia Isaac, first ever formerly incarcerated woman to speak at the National Press Club #NPC

Meet the new Ayatollah Khamenei,
Just like the old Ayatollah Khamenei.
Top stuff, everyone.
Well, something's very clear to everyone

The phrase What the Utter Fuck is much overused these days, but…

At this point, the Environment Department (and new EPA) exists to make recommendations that can be overruled as a political signal to industry.

Excerpt from Loberal Party election autopsy.
Yes, women think the Coalition are sexist, and migrant communities think the party is racist, but that's burying the lede: four in five young people loathe it.

Independent news media are excelling in their coverage & commentary of the US attack on Iran. You won't see this in MSM!
I've got it all in TrueNorth's newsletter this afternoon

Best review ever! So chuffed. Thanks, David.

Important piece by Thomas Mayo (if you can get past the paywall). I feel culpable in this myself. This begs the question of the Royal Commission being called into one kind of racism alone, while we blithely walk by another so common as to be almost banal. themonthly-admin/march-2026/n...

For anyone else in Australia, John Lyons has been doing an amazing job summarising what's happening in the Middle East in a fair and reasonable way on ABC.
His knowledge and experience is invaluable.
Extreme rhetoric

Holocaust minimisation

He was, he spoke like he actually knows what’s going on, raising the issues that count. Sadly journos like him are few and far between.
Also Ms Shrivell thank you for being Difficult!😀
Propaganda.
The Albanese Labor Govt is pushing propaganda at us.
What a betrayal 😞😞 #auspol
probably should have waited a bit at least before being an absolute moron

I haven't seen many people talk about why Iran was attacked in broad daylight.
It's probably worth a few neurons.
