I saw the words Trump and intelligence used in the same sentence and guffawed. And then I realised youโ€™re saying he is loose with the confidential information.

"โ€”as if we are a people beyond the boundaries of humanity.

"I canโ€™t recall a time in modern history when the world treated a famine with such coldness and indifference. Even the harshest humanitarian catastrophes have elicited some degree of empathy, except for Gaza."

Why does our country not recognize the Palestinian state? Why are we not sending RAAF planes with Australian food?

States should be implementing policies that make the world a safer and more equitable place, so that no one feels the need to flee their native home.

Norman Hermant was unhinged when interviewing a Miznon protestor on ABC730. What a shocker.

Fancy all-Australian ham on your toastie? Good luck with that With a billion dollars worth of ham and bacon imports pushing Australian pork out of supermarket delis in the past year, the industry wants consumers to push back and demand locally grown.

Child care and aged care should not be privately run for profit. Community run organisations should be the norm. And what is the point of a royal commission, if its recommendations arenโ€™t implemented with oversight from the government?

1. Qantas retained data it didn't need, as an analytical convenience.

2. It outsourced something to an overseas company, and handed over data mentioned in (1).

These incidents will end when a chair or CEO suffers criminal penalties for a sequence that's so bloody predictable.

Hungary banned anything that โ€œpromotes homosexuality,โ€ which means Pride.

However, today over 500,000 people in Budapest told the government to fuck off. ๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€โšง๏ธ

Tomorrow marks two years since the release of the parliamentary gambling report chaired by the late Peta Murphy. Despite strong public support, Fed Govt has failed to even respond to the report. For those harmed by gambling, this is a shocking betrayal #auspol #politas

Not to rain on everyoneโ€™s ceasefire-not-ceasefire parade, but that wrecking ball of a big dumb bill is still working its way through the Senate and still launching an assault on women, wages, benefits, and the entire working class

The disrespect that the US under Trump has shown Australia in recent times should remind @albomp.bsky.social that we owe them nothing and will not follow them into another stupid war.

Australia can no longer view Trumpโ€™s America as an ally. We need to leave AUKUS

I would like to hear what engineers are saying about a solution, if there is one. Rather than only the opinions of King Canuteโ€™s descendants.
