My article on AUKUS. AUKUS is about madness, militarism and money. Turning Australia into a US military base, sacrificing our sovereignty, and enriching retired politicians, military and public servants while battlers struggle to put food on the table

Pauline Hanson is Australia's Trump. She knows this, she exploits it, and she is as grave a danger to our nation as Trump is to the USA. Her Australian backers are the equivalent of the Heritage Foundation. #auspol #onenation

If you think the political climate is hot at the moment, it's not going to get any cooler any time soon. "Australia faces greater risk of bushfires this year and next because of the El Nino and its lingering effects, but is unprepared." We are led by idiots #auspol www.smh.com.au/environment/...

More than 10,000 people have signed a @getup.org.au petition calling on Basketball Australia to scrap its deal with Israeli AI firm Pixellot. Basketball Australia will rollout AI-powered cameras nationwide, recording thousands of Australian children. www.deepcutnews.com/p/basketball...

Kudos to Zali Steggall for calling out toxic shock jocks for inciting outrage, hate and anger on the airwaves. They are a blight on the Australian media landscape. Shock jocks with skid marks that are impossible to remove Phillip Riley X

Meanwhile, the Australian government increases its national security reliance on the mood swings of the fickle fascist in the White House. #EndAUKUS #auspol

"One Nation is commonly referred to as an anti-establishment populist party, but in reality it looks more like a clutch of mining and corporate lobbies in a trenchcoat." 💥 #auspol

One Nation leader Pauline Hanson said she was "horrified and saddened" by the incident, and wished Haines a "full and speedy recovery". Who does that malignant, hateful ratbag think she's kidding? #australia #ausgov #auspolitics #politicalviolence #helenhaines www.sbs.com.au/news/article...

A reminder that this dangerously incompetent, Christian nationalist, Zionist, racist and misogynist frat boy is who the Albanese government has outsourced Australia's defence strategy to. #EndAUKUS #auspol

One in six Australian children live in poverty. Major parties who do nothing about this - except make it worse - can not pretend to support 'social cohesion'. #AntiPovertyWeek #EndChildPoverty #RaiseTheRate #inequality #auspol

"the only politics that can work [is] one that stops promising 1965 and starts arguing about 2035. Who owns the housing. How work is taxed against wealth. Who pays for an older country. What a decent life looks like when growth is slow." #inequality #auspol pearlsandirritations.com/post/2026/10...

Love to see the Minister caught in either incompetence or a lie by work I put out last month. No, Minister King: Your government hasn't even come close to implementing the Pepper Inquiry's recommendations on Beetaloo. You don't get to claim completion when you're less than 5% of the way there.

I will not repost such horrific videos. But it really is past time that Australia's prime minister should show some moral leadership and stand up to Trump, and call out his dangerously psychopathic behavior for what it is. #auspol

⁨GET THE FACTS: The Coalition doubled Australia's gross debt even before COVID, and racked up almost two thirds of total gross debt. Between 2013-2022 the Coalition racked up more than $600bn of gross debt, and debt went from $257bn in 2013/14 to $542bn in 2018/19.⁩

Australia Institute analysis shows Australia is on the verge of its “biggest improvement in housing affordability in 50 years”. Read more here: https://australiainstitute.org.au/post/turning-point-new-analysis-reveals-tax-changes-are-reversing-25-years-of-housing-policy-failure/

@albomp.bsky.social @australianlabor.bsky.social @tonyburkemp.bsky.social Today your Israeli mates murdered the father of the groom. His name was Iyad. Your Israeli mates are sadistic war criminals and you do nothing no concrete action..nothing Vote Greens for a humane Australia Free Palestine

No surprise; Australia's political & media establishment won't even acknowledge the Red Lines Package: - Labor knows its pretence of upholding international law and human rights would look even more hypocritical, and - politicians & media would need to confront the "G" word. #GazaGenocide #auspol

Seven of nine planetary boundaries have now been crossed, yet Australia still expands coal and gas while talking up its climate credentials. Humanity’s safe operating space is shrinking fast, Peter Sainsbury writes. #Climate #Environment #auspol

"Government hypocrisy in maintaining the charade of Australia as a global climate leader is beyond belief, particularly its insistence that Australia is doing its utmost to assist 'Our Pacific Family'" #ClimateCrisis #auspol pearlsandirritations.com/post/2026/10...

V v good new @earthjustice.org report on the genuinely nutty numbers behind the data centre fossil fuel boom in the US This new update shows emissions from off-grid gas plants for data centres are WAY worse than previously estimated earthjustice.org/feature/data...

By blindly forging ahead with the costly, dangerous and strategically stupid #AUKUS project, Albanese and Marles are a clear and present danger to Australian security and sovereignty. #EndAUKUS #auspol

This has been an open secret in Australia for some time, with the federal government going to great lengths to *appear* as if they have effective climate policy, while rubber stamping mine after mine. It's disgraceful, and they are not held to account for it.

Case study in why I’m glad I’m no longer working in Australian media. They really do expect you to just unthinkingly republish their press releases.

On so many issues (climate, human rights, Palestine) Labor is now right wing. The irrelevant Liberals & Nationals are reps for the fossil fuels & mining industries. Pauline Hanson's One Nation serves Gina Rinehart. The Greens (and some Independents) represent the interests of Australia. #auspol

Well, since imports of our coal by China are way down, one has to wonder who benefits. Disgraceful, appalling, unconscionable: Labor. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Australia wants a UN Security Council seat and promises to uphold international law. But from Gaza to Indigenous rights and Diego Garcia, its own record shows how selectively those rules can be applied, John Menadue writes. #auspol #UNSC

There's just way too much to be very cross about, today. The Australian government investing OUR MONEY in EllenMusk's stupid space project and weapons companies is next level crap. I've disagreed with governments before but I've never been this disappointed in one.

Latest energy figures are out for 2024-25 - once again 83% of Australia's gas is exported or used to convert gas to PNG exports. There is no gas shortage. We do not need more gas. We need to #TAXtheGAS

The ICE agent who shot Araujo in a Houston is named GREGORY FEATHERS. Make sure everyone knows.
