Dear media,
Israel is not an 'ally' of Australia.
Israel is not party to the ANZUS, Five Powers, or AUKUS agreements. Nor is Israel party to our less formal agreements with Japan or Indonesia.
If there are big words you don't understand, look them up. Start with self-respect.

The instigator from the very outset.
And the fvker walks away smiling, again.
Morning. ☕️
Antisemitism Envoy Jillian Segal-funded disinformation network “Advance” is now attacking one of the nation’s best and most respected journalists, over doing his job and pointing out the bleeding obvious regarding Israel and the US.
This is where we are, Australia’s MAGA.
Bravo Nick! His anger is my anger too - and many of us. 👇👇👇

Australia is at war, Dr Richard Tanter states. The right of "collective self-defence" is invocation of UN charter Article 51. Through facilities like Pine Gap & agreements like AUKUS, Australia has enmeshed itself in the American war machine. #auspol www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

I’m shocked! Shocked I tell you!
During covid, we recognised the need for self-sufficiency... but it seems we haven't really acted on that, adequately. (with apologies to public servants who have probably prepared many briefings and policy documents to try to support action on this front) #auspol
The world is not safe while Trump is POTUS.
It is very freeing, as a voter, to be able to vote for someone who doesn’t tow the party line. The independent candidate looks at each issue, bill, proposal or whatever and votes whichever way they feel is right.
Sue Barrett: “This is not unique to the Liberals. It is structural. When you belong to a party, the party comes first. Donors, factions, ideology, internal positioning - these shape decisions, not the community that sent you to parliament.” #auspol
Excellent article. 👇
The most neutral country in the world has chosen a side, and rightfully so it’s not with the USA. youtube.com/post/UgkxOBa...
David Shoebridge has called out the ‘three war parties’ Labor, the Coalition & One Nation for joining forces to shut the door on refugees who are now fleeing the illegal war on Iran.

Grace Tame silenced from speaking events. She gave her final presentation for the year at the No to Violence national conference in Hobart.
Based on the last 24hrs, if she uttered the banned phrases in Queensland she would probably be arrested. #auspol www.abc.net.au/news/2026-03...

Just watched a fab film called Five Star Final from 1931 (d. by Mervyn LeRoy). You’d swear it was about the Murdoch newspapers. Eerily still
relevant. Well worth a viewing. Currently showing on Criterion
if anyone is interested.
Disgusting.
What? Does he really watch that? He probably thinks he keeping in touch with us common folk but who watches that crap?
I would never put ON or Family First ahead of even the Libs. ON is blatantly racist and Family First is anti-abortion. I will be voting green 1, Labor 2, and, sadly, Libs 3, as the other 2 are the only other options in my electorate.
