Victorian Liberal MP Moira Deeming at the Advance conference State Liberal (conservative) MP Moira Deeming is posited as the party's future leader. This raises the issue of Christian Right politicians and possible secrecy about their goals.

We need to show fellow voters that we can’t trust Christian Right political candidates to tell us what voting for them means for our rights & freedoms. Even if they tell us which beliefs & goals they have relinquished, can we trust them?

Albanese government rejected advice on Tasmanian salmon farming impact before passing pro-industry laws FoI documents show ministers ignored recommendation for fresh inquiry that could have reduced or paused farming

Far out.

“The environment department advised the government in late 2024 that it should revoke a 2012 decision that allowed salmon farming to expand …”

Such beautiful trees. Hope you'll find a similar walk at your new home.

Developer quietly guts ‘affordable’ housing promise in northern suburbs An “ethical” property developer favoured by the state government is seeking to slash affordable housing quotas after winning controversial height concessions.

Developer: We're good guys, honest. 60% of our apartments will be affordable. Can you fast-track approval?
State Govt: OK.
D: Can we build 16 storeys in a 10-storey zone?
SG: Well, since you're good guys... OK.
D: Haha, sucked in! Only 20% will be affordable.

Bastards. It's all about the $$$ and privatisation of housing is a disaster.

"Pack of Mongrels". Politics beats extinction of Maugean Skate - Michael West A decision brief on protecting the threatened Maugean Skate shows that the Labor Government puts wildlife extinction second to politics.

Old enough to remember Rupert Murdoch saying the illlegal 2003 bombing and invasion of Iraq (to seize its oil after a disinfo campaign about nuclear weapons) would drop oil to $20 a barrel and thus a booming economy. Millions of Iraqis died. OIl prices went up🇺🇸💰🤑.

Extreme rhetoric in right-wing political circles deserves more attention The rhetoric in Australia's right-wing political circles is getting more extreme and the media should be paying more attention.

ABC journalist notices that journalists aren’t doing their jobs.

Sunrise at Altona beach this morning

The association between building works and Aspergillus infection in immunocompromised people is well established. I wonder what precautions they took given this is a known problem.

As most will turn away in horror from even the thought of ocean acidification, pls forgive my pedantry when I say we physically CANNOT fight against’ it, nor can we ‘combat climate change’ or ‘act on climate’. We can only fight those making it worse: Shell, Exxon, Peabody, Adani, Santos, Aramco.

I regularly get people telling me how nice it is in Yarraville now with truck bans, to which I respond: “How nice for them.” The equivalent of throwing your dog poop over the neighbours fence and admiring your clean lawn.

I guess in the winners and losers transport game we are the losers.

And it's not dangerous for active transport at all!

The truck redistribution system is working as intended in Millers Rd #WestgateTunnel

A new species of moth, found at Toolangi during a bioblitz. One of the shield-bearer family, it is black and white and very small. It also looks really pissed off Forest Fire Management wants to burn its habitat.

Unlike the aforementioned moth, this moss has a name: Calyptrochaeta apiculata. It has a curious lattice-like look and a distinct border around the edges.

A new species of moth and a rare moss, both found during our bioblitz along a track in Toolangi lined with tree ferns. The government is planning to set this forest on fire.

Kinglake Friends of the Forest had a bioblitz recently at Toolangi, in an area soon to be burnt by Forest Fire Management Victoria. A new species of moth and a rare species of moss were discovered.

FFMV don't survey before they burn.

Did you ever get that sneaking suspicion - that tiny seed of doubt - that the politicians were not always acting in your interests?

C’mon, what about all the investments in submarines Australia never received or contracts with Palantir? Surely the average Australian knows the ALP truly has their best interests at heart?

Australian gas not keeping the lights on in Japan. What's the scam? - Michael West In 2024, Japan exported 40% of the gas it imported from Australia, keeping prices high here. What's the scam?

Australia, you are being scammed! #IEEFA shows Japanese export 40% of Aussie gas exports. Yep, they on-sell our gas for a profit while the corporations cry poor about tax and royalties and gas shortages @kimwingerei.bsky.social

Wouldn't it be great if you could ask them. I have so many questions!

I'm assuming it's a genetic predisposition in that case. 😉 Lucky she came with him or you wouldn't exist

I think you're right. My 2nd fleeter stuffed 6 yards of cotton up her dress in London and got a free trip to Australia. Being poor is crap.

One of mine wanted to be transported! She even got to travel with her 2 friends.

So politicians want school kiddies to be taught more ‘Australian values’?

Which ones are those? Alcoholism, toxic masculinity, colonialism, anti-science, anti-expert, ecocide, racism, genocide of First Nations peoples, banning public protest, profit at the expense of affordable homes?

Which ones?

Whatever political compass Albanese had has gone if he thinks he can be dismissive about voter’s anger at resources companies not paying enough tax, and questioning Pocock’s sincerity in raising it as an issue
