Denmark doesn't have sunshine like Australia does but the Danish government is making a brighter future for its citizens.

I am so grateful there are some politicians who work to help Australians.

Gambling regulation in Aus is a national disgrace. The govt has ignored the Murphy Report & repeatedly blocked my bill to hold gambling giants accountable. If they won’t listen to evidence, experts or the crossbench, they should at least listen to the community. #auspol #politas

Traditional.

Coastal property prices peak as stench wafts inland.

As Australia's housing crisis deepens, pollies scurry in corridors of power.

Just don't expect any action on fossil fuel emissions.

Oregon's stubborn resistance to Texas National Guard troops invading reflects the elitist and closed-minded belief that the people of Portland have nothing to learn from the people of Texas

Support independent media! It has never been more important!

Yep, Peter V’Landys has much to answer for, but the buck stops with the PM.

Albanese's refusal to even consider Peta Murphy's evidence-based review is shameful.

His government pretends to work for citizens, but their priority is powerful industry vested interests. #4Corners #LosingStreak #auspol

Yes, Western Australia's politicians really are that stupid 🤔

The State Government was warned not to prop up Griffin Coal but went ahead anyway.

Blind Freddy could see Griffin Coal would be a black hole in the public purse.

Spud is blaming Hastie for the LNP's election loss.
Yeah Nah, it was you mate and the lack of any direction or policies and just brain farts.

Stoke fear. Exploit desperation. Suspend the rule of law. Fan brutality.

Every time the stronger brutalize the weak, it’s fundamentally the same playbook.

Our duty is to stand up to brutality.

Our moral obligation is to protect the vulnerable and hold the powerful accountable.

The Australian Govt says it is “deeply concerned” about the safety of Australian citizens aboard the #GlobalSumudFlotilla, given Israeli drone attacks on the ships. I'm guessing that concern doesn't extend to sanctions against Israel or expelling the Israeli Ambassador. 🙄 #auspol #IsraeliTerrorism

Hedges Report: NPC Australia caves to Israel Lobby, cancels talk on our betrayal of Palestinian journalists The National Press Club of Australia cancelled my talk on how the media, by amplifying Israeli lies, have betrayed Palestinian journalists, 278 of whom have been assassinated by Israel.

This is a truly excoriating and well-deserved take-down of the National Press Club @PressClubAust by Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Chris Hedges.
