If we want change, we must vote for change. @davidpocock.bsky.social is the perfect example of how effective a politician can be. Because he isn’t influenced by vested interests. David works for his electorate & Australians first and foremost. Community Independents are the change we need.

Trump had people arrested to cover up his incompetence. An impeachable offense for any other president. For Trump, probably just about the 17th worst thing he did that week.

Spot the difference? Bush Jr's pointless illegal neocon invasion of Iraq - another country with NO nuclear weapons (unlike North Korea) - cost the lives of hundreds of thousands of civilians

Imagine someone saying that the US could have stopped the war with Japan if they did a deal after Pearl Harbour and gave up Hawaii

Both matters are in the Adelaide Federal Court today for an initial hearing. I’m asking the Court to give me a protective cost order of 5 cents (the smallest coin in the realm) to set a precedent for others, who in future, might face the Govt’s new secrecy strategy. #FOI #auspol

The Govt has appealed another of my #FOI wins to the Federal Court. Again it’s seeking costs against me if I’m unsuccessful defending my win. It turns out winning an FOI in a Tribunal is expensive - and that’s exactly the message the Govt wants to send to citizens. 1/2 #auspol

The federal government must take responsibility & ensure a roof over everyone's head. Six months of research has resulted in a comprehensive report detailing our way out of this crisis. Public housing, national rent caps & affordable mortgages are a fantastic place to start.

Housing in Australia has become a vehicle for private wealth accumulation & a primary driver of widening intergenerational wealth inequality. Meanwhile the banks, real estate industry, big developers & investors are winning from the housing crisis. The system needs to change.

The Greens-led senate inquiry into intergenerational housing inequity spent 6 months hearing evidence on Australia's housing crisis. Final report, published today, shows dire need for the government to stop shirking responsibility & act. Public housing, rent caps & affordable mortgages.

The rest of the world - "Why, yes. unit roots are a problem" The US finance world - "What club do I have to join and how much does it cost to get one?"

The greatest secret in finance is that nobody knows what they’re investing in and another is that a lot of the “very smart people” with “lots of data” base their powerful “financial models” based on extremely simplistic scenarios, many of them as obvious as “growth continues as it always has”

I was a rape crisis counselor for many years. The Cornell story is not just Cornell. It’s all colleges and universities. And it reminds me why I am so relieved that my own daughter is done with college.

Did you know that a Farage Reform govt intends to scrap the NHS? The private health care system he wants to introduce would cost you £10,000s, like the US, where getting ill can bankrupt you. #ReformUK #Labour #GreenParty #Newcastle #SAFC� #NUFC

Every glaciated region on the planet lost ice for four years in a row now. From 2023–2025 alone, glaciers lost around 1,400 gigatonnes of ice, equivalent to roughly 560 million Olympic swimming pools (the official weird measure for anything water related). Source: bit.ly/WMOStateofWa...

Western governments: So, AI is going to cost jobs, it's eating up all investment dollars, it's environmentally ruinous, it's stealing everyone's work with no proven benefits, and people hate it? SIGN US UP.

The AI industry is unsustainable in every way, and will likely also cause a financial crash of unprecedented proportions. Our legal system needs to find a way *stat* of holding the industry responsible: for $mismanagement; for stealing copyrighted material; for hacking orgs & companies; harm, etc

Executives working on AI at Microsoft and OpenAI admitted what its critics have been saying all along: LLms are predatory pieces of technology that have been built on what a Microsoft executive called “an astonishing theft of unprecedented proportions.” www.404media.co/doom-loop-op...
