Chris Uhlmann in The Oz on Friday in his climate change denial screed suggested that "No one can model the future".

And err what???

Chris seems to think that because he is ignorant of how something is done, that must mean it isn't real.

I know one thing. If I were a young blonde, white woman, and a police officer shot me ON CAMERA, my settlement would be large enough to have its own itemized line on LA's yearly budget.

The media calls Labor fiscally reckless
But under Labor, the deficit is shrinking, employment is near record highs, and net debt remains lower than most OECD peers
The real recklessness was $1 trillion debt under the Coalition with nothing to show for it #auspol

Taxing unrealised gains on super balances over $3 million isn’t radical
It’s about closing unfair concessions for the ultra-wealthy
Most Australians will never see a $3 million balance
Labor is making the system fairer, not weaker #auspol

The only thing China had to do this entire time was wait until the deranged criminal eventually caved on his own trade war tariffs and he proved them right. Great businessman my ass.

Taking a bribe in a very public way doesn't mean you aren't corrupt, it means your corruption is shameless.

Dear @abc-news.bsky.social

Why is Tim Wilson being given a platform on the national broadcaster for his long acceptance speech?

How many other HoRs candidates got that opportunity? #balance

Have you learnt nothing from this federal election?
Bcuz I sure as shit hope you have!

He’s just won the largest Labor majority since WW2, destroyed the leaders of two parties and run a government where there have yet been *zero* scandals… so perhaps claims Albo was “weak” were somewhat fanciful?

I have never seen an #auspol leader covered in so much blood that wasn’t theirs.

Dutton can now sit and ponder how a No vote really feels.

Sam Maiden in Insiders was right - Allegra Spender should be the Libs shadow Treasurer - heck leader.

But the Liberal Party spent a generation ignoring women and pretending climate change is a UN conspiracy.

Not sure they are ready to reverse either. - eg see Hastie

Remember how legacy media thought we should debate Welcome to Country for a few days because a neonazi arsehole said so?

Really hope a few editors reflect on this election result and the racist fucking cancer they pushed.

Glad electorate has comprehensively said fuck off.

Boomers were scared into voting right to protect what they had. Gen Z and Millennials have nothing to protect. The politics of fear collapses when there is nothing left to lose

Trump becomes first American President to lose an Australian election.

Left returned with increased majority. Trump-backed Conservative Opposition Leader lost his seat.

Total repeat of Canadian election.

Thank you Donald.

Labour won despite Murdoch, Dutton, Trump, Musk, Advance, Atlas network, project 2025, Gina, and most of the media, including ABC against them.

Given how much more fucked up the world is about to get, the question isn't are you better off than you were three years ago - it's what do you think the next three years are going to be like and who do you want making the decisions? And that's not just about a PM, but the whole parliament.

Empty chairs = empty promises. As your Independent, I stand up, speak up and show up — every time. Goldstein deserves more than this — it deserves commitment. In 2025 Independence works even harder. #Goldsteinvotes

Muslim Vote urges Parramatta constituents to preference Libs over Labor The Muslim Vote campaign has taken aim at the Labor Party's "failure to stand for justice on Gaza and Palestine" as it looks to unseat Parramatta MP Andrew Charlton.

How cooked do you have to be to think the Liberals would be more supportive of Palestine than Labor? Greens, sure, but the LIBERALS? 😂 #auspol #ausvotes2025 www.abc.net.au/news/2025-04...

The coalition spent three years going on about the $275 in energy cuts. They kind of blunted this as a weapon. The line has been heard before or heard too much? #leadersdebate #auspol #ausvotes

If the LNP didn't have the Murdoch media as its comms team, they would be a minor freak show fringe party.
