AFR today highlighting plummeting Liberal party membership rates - Highlights Sandringham (in Goldstein area) down to just 180 members (40% drop) No wonder why Tim Wilson is worried - esp the leaked group chat showing issues to find scrutineers. #auspol

The factional Liberal political knives are out again. 🔪 "Sky News host Peta Credlin slams Opposition Leader Sussan Ley for having 'almost no political identity'". And adds a barb about her name. Ms Credlins' remarks are in response to Sussan Ley's press club speech. #auspol

In investigating Nike’s claims, reporter @robwdavis.bsky.social‬ had a breakthrough when he received payroll information for a Cambodian factory. Quick calculations showed that just 1% of workers made 1.9x the minimum wage, the amount that Nike said was typical.

I think what should should send chills is how ridiculous two of the world's most "powerful" and influential men are. And how easily behaviour from insecure men like this, can set off actual global wars, impact the welfare of so many etc at the whim of their thinking #auspol

While two juvenile influential men are beefing with each other in the USA (Musk and Trump), their decision making means people are dying around the world from their aid cuts or their complicity. #auspol

A reflection of how culturally diverse esp the inner west of Melbourne is - here in Highpoint on just this one billboard we have the digital advertising in Arabic, Hindi, Vietnamese and Mandarin.

As you see Elon and Trump embroiled in messy public beef, I can't help but observe that there's a distinct theme of these "unhinged very fragile & ego filled men" seeking political power - both in Australia and globally. Case in point - "Goldstein Trumps'" behaviour #auspol

Bradfield community Independent Nicolette Boele thanking the community after the AEC called the seat in her favor after a close result. 👏 Whilst the Liberal party continues to implode more into cringe and sexism, prompted by Alan Stockdale being a total dinosaur.🦖 #auspol

I'm noticing a trend of all the annon accounts who are still trolling my Twitter account (literally @ tagging me with ridiculous narratives) are these "business bro men" trying to act like chiefs online. They started swarming after the Antony green "situation" and taken issue being blocked

Problem over there is that even if you block an account, they can still see your content. That's why its unsafe because you literally could have a case of stalkers or bad actors still having full visibility.

Australia to lobby Unesco over barring of ancient rock site from world heritage list due to Woodside emissions

theguardian.comAustralia to lobby Unesco over barring of ancient rock site from world heritage list due to Woodside emissionsSite is home to more than a million petroglyphs, some almost 50,000 years old, but reports say it has been damaged by the Karratha gas plant * Get our breaking news email, free app or daily news podcast The Albanese government will launch a lobbying campaign in a bid to reverse a Unesco recommendation that an ancient rock art site in Western Australia can’t go on the world heritage list until damaging industrial emissions linked to a controversial Woodside gas development are stopped. Government officials were aiming to meet Unesco next week after its advisers said the nomination of the Murujuga Cultural Landscape in north-west WA – home to more than a million petroglyphs, some almost 50,000 years old – should be referred back to Australia until nearby “degrading acidic emissions” were halted.

Senator Dorinda Cox by jumping to Labor from the Greens has now put herself into a predicament now. She says her values now align "more with Labor" yet just last Wed, issued a pointed statement against the Labor environment minister about approving the WA north west shelf gas extension. #auspol

Journo Rachel Withers: Sort of weird to run for Greens deputy leader/deputy whip when you don't think the crossbench is the place to make change 🤔 I'd be willing to entertain the idea that Dorinda Cox has decided "change from within" is the way to go, but not within that 2-week turnaround #auspol

Goldstein facts: The 2025 margin is 175 votes - out of 115,673 formal votes (3,198 informal votes). As of time of posting. Thats only a formal vote margin of 0.15% In 2022, Independent Zoe Daniel won with a larger margin of 5,635 votes. A formal vote margin of 2.87% #auspol

Dorinda Cox said back in 2023 that Labor was a “puppet for the fossil fuel industry". Only last week Ms Cox said the WA North West Shelf gas project “must not go ahead”. Yet today when defecting says it “wouldn’t be for me to make public commentary during provisional approval stage” #auspol

Goldstein facts: What happened to Tim Wilson's "Goldstein blue tsunami" - per social media posts and leaked group chat. 🫠😵‍💫 Considering its Liberal heartland, only a 175 vote margin (0.15%) - awkwardly lambasted akin to "a rounding error" by the Spectator magazine #auspol

Goldstein facts: Goldstein, which is Liberal party heartland, is now the second most marginal federal seat in Australia. Bradfield (undergoing a full recount) currently most marginal - at time of posting. #auspol
