Today’s privatised government services are tomorrow’s royal commissions.

β€œWhen essential services fail their citizens, governments should not entrust the clean-up to private consultancies…A system corrupted by the unaccountable motive of profit isn’t repaired within that same logic.”

It’s still 1.2 million people choosing an overtly racist party as their first preference, an increase of over 300,000 ppl since last election. I’m not saying it’s the most important result but still worth talking about as we see support for far right parties grow around the world.

It’s a very dark reflection on the state of Australian politics that Labor (including Albanese) seem more satisfied with defeating Bandt than Dutton.

Progressive voters are tricking themselves into thinking this election was a great result, but Australia’s centre of gravity keeps going right.

Liberal Party's "Advance" in Indigenous hate rant - The Klaxon Mega-millionaire-funded disinformation group β€œAdvance” has declared the Indigenous β€œWelcome to Country” is part of a secretive plan by β€œelites” to β€œdelegitimise Australia’s history”.

The welcome to country was booed at the Melbourne dawn service.

This group of bad actors, "Advance", has been aggressively sowing hate and division behind-the-scenes against the Indigenous ceremony.

Advance is quietly funded by the Liberal Party. (ICYMI:)

Interesting how all the politicians who rushed to condemn the hecklers criticised them desecrating the solemnity of ANZAC day and not for their racism and disrespect of Aboriginal people.

Crikey is running for Parliament. No, actually. Here’s why We’re investigating all the loopholes and privileges afforded to sitting politicians and people running for office.

It's a lot of work, and not cheap either. So why bother? We're making a point.

Even if we reverted to 2015 tax rate, illicit cigs would still be cheaper. People who buy cheap illicit products won’t suddenly switch back to legal ones. Yes, taxation may have contributed to this problem but it is misleading to suggest that we can simply tax our way out of it.

A DOGE-like report called Indigenous health research 'wasteful'. Now the Coalition wants to cut it Coalition attacks on a $1 million grant to improve Indigenous breastfeeding rates are at the centre of a campaign by right-wing group ADVANCE shown to millions of Australian voters.

If you thought Australian funded health research was safe from Trump style attacks and interference, have a look at what my Aboriginal colleagues leading an MRFF breastfeeding promotion project are facing: www.crikey.com.au/2025/04/09/i...
