Apparently a completely peaceful march across Sydney Harbour Bridge today was extremely perilous.

Yet somehow fewer people (i.e. nobody) died today than when NSW Police were asked to assist with a 95-year-old nursing home resident behaving erratically.

Jillian Segal and husband funding far-right group "Advance" - The Klaxon Antisemitism envoy Jillian Segal and her husband are among the biggest funders of far-right group "Advance”, which spreads hateful propaganda and racist tropes.

It's three entire weeks since we put questions to Antisemitism Envoy Jillian Segal, after she, standing with PM, told us we need sweeping new laws to protect one specific minority.
She still refuses to respond.
Explosive series kicks off tomorrow. (ICYMI:)

How good is it to live in an Australia where a foreign nation is deliberately starving an entire country of people and a South African born white woman is paid from Australian's taxes to defend the foreign-nation-that-starves-people and is also directed by our govt to tell us to shut up about it?

Segal seeking to put uni's "under control of a political lobby" - The Klaxon Hundreds of university academics have called for the rejection of Antisemitism Envoy Jillian Segal’s report, labelling it an “unprecedented attack” on academic freedom.

🚨Antisemitism Envoy Jillian Segal is attempting to put universities "under control of a political lobby" in an "unprecedented attack", say more than 380 academics in explosive open letter.

Comes amid yet more formal calls for PM to "Sack Segal" following The Klaxon’s expose…

I’m confused: did a memo go out this week saying it’s finally okay for politicians and the press to be outraged that Israel is starving Palestinians?

If so, I didn’t see the memo. But I did see the evidence of this war crime back in late 2023.

Where are we at? Starving is bad, bombing is ok?

France to recognize Palestine as a state, says Macron, prompting criticism from Netanyahu – Middle East crisis live French president says ‘no alternative’ amid ‘urgent need to end the war in Gaza’; Israel’s prime minister claims announcement ‘rewards terror’

Australia had a chance to be a leader, had a chance to be on the right side of history.

The govt instead chose cowardice and implicit consent of genocide.

France makes us look very pathetic

What a disgusting, cowardly capitulation! 🤬 Will it have to be labelled as a product of the US, so we can avoid it?

Israel is shooting Palestinian teenage boys in the genitals. I wonder if Australia's ABC News will report this. Or if Penny Wong will claim she's "deeply concerned". Perhaps Zionist lobbyist (sorry, "Antisemitism Envoy") Jillian Segal would care to comment. #auspol #IsraeliWarCrimes #GazaGenocide

Shout to @abcnewsbot.bsky.social, 21 months into a genocide, for still trying to pretend this morning that Israel is bombing all its neighbours, this time Syria, so that it can 'stabilise the region'. If this were a just world, you'd be at the International Courts as well.

The point about the Advance donation issue is the hypocrisy. Jillian Segal wants to police everyone’s speech while defending her husband’s right to fund an organisation that propagates racism. Her position is untenable.

Curious to see the way that Australian media treated Monique Ryan when her husband caught was caught pulling down a sign versus Jill Segal when her husband’s family trust donated $50k to Advance.

‘Gross overreach’: Labor group urges Albanese to reject key parts of antisemitism envoy plan Exclusive: Labor Friends of Palestine concerned by Jillian Segal’s recommendation government adopt IHRA’s contested definition of antisemitism

“A “groundswell” of Labor rank-and-file members urging govt to reject key recommendations from fed antisemitism envoy Segal according to an internal lobby group, urging a focus on anti-racism education rather than more contentious ideas such as stripping funding from universities and arts bodies.”

1. Yesterday, 86 people were arrested in the UK under the Terrorism Act 2000 for holding signs saying "I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action."
They are the opposite of terrorists. They were protesting *against* terrorism. 🧵

This should be more than ample grounds for Segal to step down from the Envoy position

I feel "unsafe" having a publicly funded group, with seemingly no oversight of funding, censoring news and society, as well as trying to make legitimate protest, illegitimate

On 7.30 last night she said she wants oversight of the content on ABC and SBS to make sure nothing antisemitic airs. Sounds a lot like censorship by a very small minority to me. Why is everyone so scared to stand up to this?

Also may not have been the smartest idea to put a ‘luminary’ who thinks of the majority of Australians as proles on the review committee.
