She also said the community don't want all those non-white faces at their Universities. My old uni has a very healthy business educating non-Australians. It's actually one of the things we do best. #auspol #npc

Cartoon for the Melbourne Observer #auspol #OneNation #PaulineHanson

This gallery has had a decade of watching Trump and 30 yrs of Hanson and they walked in the press club like it was first day on the job.

She did crack 🙄 she abused 2 journalists, whined at high pitch about bludgers, spat bitter vitriol at our Islamic neighbours, dissed the UN, squealed like a stuck pig about abc & sbs, threatened to cut funding to FNP & abused trans people- what was this guy watching? repeats of MAFS? #auspol

The getup stunt today was misguided. The press were obsequious in allowing Hanson to get away with her bullshit. Their questions were mostly "gotchas" instead of serious policy questions that would expose PHON's shallow, incomplete & lying approach. Need to take PHON seriously. #auspol

Well played GetUp. #AusPol

Night follows day. And so do complaints that paying those on th lowest salaries a bit more will send businesses broke. Except multiple studies show those same people spend more of what they earn (remember Covid when people struggling could afford new shoes for the kids thanks to payments) #auspol

If even half of this is accurate we should all be scared and angry. @albomp.bsky.social these are complex times but do not let us down by betraying our values and your principles. #auspol #Auspol

The DOJ moved to dismiss its appeals against 4 leading law firms that won rulings against President Trump's executive orders targeting them for employing or representing his critics.

Senate Democrats expect to lose a symbolic vote this week to check President Trump's authority to strike Iran. They're preparing for a bigger fight over the war's funding.

Congress will vote to lower the age to prosecute minors as adults from 16 down to 14 in DC. Let me get this straight: Congress wants to prosecute 14 yr. olds as adults, but they don’t want to prosecute adults who sexually abuse 14 year olds? Release the Epstein files.

John Hewson not pulling any punches #auspol

@albomp.bsky.social Your comments re: bed & lie in it - apart from the cruelty & disregard for Aust policy - reveal a disregard for the coercion, forced compliance required by many women - both in Aust & camps overseas to simply exist. You know this to be true. #auspol #Auspol #Bringthemhome

And note the contrast with the protests in Melbourne. People motivated by the same concerns - but in a different policing environment. @chrisminnsmp.bsky.social #FreePalestine #Auspol

apple.news/AqGYdO_W7TTi... Women jumping the #liberal sinking ship. #auspol

I’m no fan of #SussanLey but the #LibsSpill fiasco revealed the depth of misogyny the #Coalition needs to confront. #auspol

So Well Done Angus has squibbed his first chance to be on Insiders (apparently even David Speers is too tough an interviewer for him), sending out Jane Hume in his place #auspol

And of course, this is all about pretending women are important in the Lib/Nats. More spin, and as content revealed, no substance. No change. #auspol

🤣🤣🤣 Jane Hume making comments regarding taxation, inflation and housing is laughable and completely lacks credibility. #LNPDyingParty stuffed up all three while in government. Hume voted against cost of living and housing support. 🤷‍♂️ #insiders #auspol

“The violent actions of NSW police officers in Sydney ... have a chilling effect on democracy and peaceful protest in Australia and are designed to curtail peaceful public dissent."

Appalling scenes of police violence in innocent, moral protest. Albanese and Minns deeply #ComplicitinGenocide. #auspol

Not in my name ... #israel #warcrimes #Palestine #genocide #auspol #democracy #atrisk

So more of a mumble than a call. #BumblingBarnacles #auspol

You seriously think Grace would give a shit, Barnaby? #Auspol

The actions of the police are reprehensible- the young person needs medical attention. I hope he is ok. Kidney punching is pure violence. #auspol

Unfortunately I agree. This was completely foreseeable and creates more division than unity. #Herzog #auspol #Albo #FreePalestine

This is such a sad and frightening time - to watch our country change and to look into the abyss of what some people in power (Minns) think is acceptable. It is not and we say no. The actions of some police was appalling. #auspol #freepalestine #Albo

Racist thuglord #Minnsolini attacks Grace Tame for her principled stance against genocidal #Israel & its vile apologist, Herzog. www.abc.net.au/news/2026-02... #HerzogOutOfOz #NSWFascism #auspol #IsraelFascism

#Fascism and #Genocide support enabled by @australianlabor.bsky.social This is not what the #FairGo is meant to be, #auspol. There are dangers for all minorities. We should all be protected equally. Recent events in #Australia make it clear that isn't true. #BoorlooTerror showed it again.

TBF, Anthony is a bit of an expert in punching vulnerable people while they are down #auspol

Hey Albo, Wanna ask your genocidal mate Herzog what this is about? #auspol www.abc.net.au/news/2026-02...

No, no no! The police brutality in Sydney is not acceptable, Chris Minns. Albo - tell the NSW police to ‘turn the temperature down’ #auspol #freepalestine

If RFKJ truly wanted gold standard science and innovation, he would use the power of the govt to end the pay-to-play scientific publishing. Go ahead Bobby. We dare you. #aaronsw

The very same "president" that asked his generals if they could just shoot the American protesters in Washington D.C. during his first term.

In a move that will send transphobes spinning Victoria has announced it is making it Free for Trans & gender diverse people to change their gender on a birth certificate. Labor’s Natalie Hutchin says money should not be an obstacle to having documents reflect someone’s gender.✅

The Age reports that leaked recordings from the Exclusive Brethren’s Strive 26 conference this week have revealed the church’s leadership swinging back at the Prime Minister's labelling it a cult and discussion on plans to deal with a tax office probe. www.theage.com.au/national/we-... #auspol

Billionaire power plays, party infighting, and a looming leadership spill 👀🔥 Gina Rinehart’s influence over Andrew Hastie could shake the Liberal Party before Christmas. Democracy or dynasty? #AusPol #LibSpill kangaroocourtofaustralia.com/2025/09/28/b...

Even after a thorough, excoriating royal commission, #robodebt is a stark reminder of how privileged powerful people get off Scotty free. The conflict-of-interest-riddled performance of the #NACC commissioner maintains the cosy status quo: the appearance of oversight, but no-one held accountable.

The president just gathered the highest ranking officers in the military to tell them that he may order them to kill American citizens -- and that they better follow his orders. All in response to a series of crises that have no basis in reality. I don't know how to yell any louder.

This photo just about sums it up
