"Queensland police refused to discipline officer accused of domestic violence against pregnant partner"
There is an entrenched culture of protecting male perpetrators of domestic violence in this State and this country. #auspol #qldpol #MVAW #MVAC

Thousands of Western nationals fought Israelโs war on Gaza: What to know
Thousands of Western citizens joined the Israeli military in its war on Gaza that killed over 72,000 Palestinians.
These stats show over 500 Australian dual citizens fought for IDF in Gaza. Did they commit war crimes? Will they be investigated by Australian authorities? When?

When politicans fail, police go rogue, justice fails to protect - Michael West
Herzog has departed, leaving behind anger and less social cohesion, while politicians, justices and NSW police have many questions to answer.
on the NSW SC decision to not overturn Major Event declaration by NSW Tourism Minister. As Wendy Bacon shows, the decision turns on judicial deference to police (assumed officers act reasonably) and judicial interpretation of a political event as โculturalโ.

Dragged from prayer โ how Muslim belonging became conditional in Australia
The police pulling Muslim men from prayer during protests against Isaac Herzogโs visit exposes how fragile Muslim belonging has become in Australia. Shaymaa Elkadi argues this was not a failure of jud...
"Morrison can demand Muslims be 'governed.' Minns can defend police violence. Leaders can insist we 'do more.' But they cannot undo what Monday night revealed:
Muslim safety in Australia is not treated as a right. It is treated as a revocable privilege." #auspol

A great #SundayShot thanks to all involved.
Couldnโt agree more with comments re police violence. At 79yrs & attending protests all my life, Iโm shocked at level of police violence toward elderly protesters! Seeing injuries that could be catastrophic for elderly but it will never stop me attending๐

Here's what'll happen. Labor will get its lowest ever primary vote at the next election. "Centrist" rusted-ons will blame lefties, instead of themselves, because liberalism is political narcissism drenched in sanctimony, and shit will just keep getting worse.
