Due to changes by the Albanese Government at least 250 refugees seeking asylum that the ASRC helps have just lost their Medicare Card. It will cost us $270,000 for the next year to cover this. You can help by choosing welcome and donating today: donate.asrc.org.au/donatetoday

and a GIGANTIC SUCK SHIT to Mark Zuckerberg and Meta.

As First Nations spokesperson for the Greens I'm deeply concerned that the NT Govt has cancelled funding to the Bush Bus and cut whole communities off - I'm calling on the Federal Government to follow this up and do whatever possible to make sure people aren't just stranded.

Jacqui Lambie really unloaded on ON’s Mark Nicholson (fake criminal lawyer), says he should “not be in parliament” for refusing to apologise for his misogynistic cartoon & claiming it’s his “job to pick on ppl” Lambie “He should drop out”🔥 Grown man bullying women—yep, drop out

Legal and Con Estimates today, I’ll be asking: 🔎 Why the NACC has still never held a public hearing ⚖️ The Brereton reports that were never released 🎙️ How private court recordings were offshored ❌ How new hate laws are being used against Palestinians

The @news.abc.net.au needs to stop supporting violent men who attach women Signed - all the people who used to rely on the ABC but no longer

Folks will recall Sen David Pocock asking how Yaron Finkelstein's firm - Society Advisory - was awarded a contract by Jillian Segal's office. This was answer.

I don't know who is writing the headlines at Australia's ABC News, but I wish they'd stop looking for ways to praise Brendan Nugent, the alleged attacker of Helen Haines. The Australian mainstream news media need to srsly examine how they report men's crimes of violence against women. #auspol #VAW

Israel has joined the Pacific Islands Forum, the region's principal political organisation, as a partner. www.rnz.co.nz/news/pacific...

In 2019 Helen called him her "soulmate", today, he is her rock. I’m just glad that out of the many nasty, violent men, there are some genuinely good, supportive men out there too. Phil Haines is proof of that. Men should be more like Phil, & we should all be more like Helen. 🩵

Greece has joined the European protests in France, Spain, Italy and Albania. We are sick and tired of billionaires and their blatant theft.

Full costs of Segal's overseas travel since she took up the job.

Here's @ronnisalt.bsky.social "The violence we still refuse to name"

Big tech will try and tell us the rollout of AI and data centres is inevitable but here’s the proof it’s not. Community opposition to a data centre in Victoria has delayed the project so much it cut the developer’s net revenue by 1/3 and dropped their stock price 40%.

Why? Israel is nowhere near the Pacific. Australia better not have had a hand in this. 🤬

Obscene bank profits are never enough - $15.1b in combined profits and they still hunt for ways to sack thousands of staff - this time using AI as the driver. The issue here is the profits, not the workers.

Liberal Leader Angus Taylor says he's "deeply saddened" by the attack on Indi MP Helen Haines. Just 6 days ago, in the HoR QT, Liberal MP Angie Bell called for the PM and Small Bus. Min. Anne Aly to be "stoned in the square". A vile dangerous remark. His Party is part of the problem. 😠 #auspol

Do Y'all Qaeda see how stupid this sounds? Doubtful.🙄

Billionaires should never be allowed to fund Election Campaigns..

If only Anthony Albanese showed half the spine of Carney, stood up to Trump, and set out a plan for Australia's independence. As well as being the right thing to do, he might even improve his electoral standing. #EndAUKUS #auspol

I wonder if the government has ways of confirming that the $400 billion we're giving the US, is even going to the shipyards that are supposed to be building our subs. Or is it going towards a genocide, or buying oil from Russia, or building new weapons of war, or into the Trump family pocket.

Anyone able to attest to whether Plymouth is a “pass through” operation for political donations from outsiders? #Auspol

Pauline Hanson’s attack on a medical condition impacting Jackie Lambie should result in every politician calling a media conference and utterly condemning the comments and demanding Hanson resign from her position because she’s failing half the population with this gutter shit! #PHONPol #AusPol

Please see the doco #NAZA. The film is a series of confronting interviews. There's no graphic war footage at all, until the last 5min. of bodies under ruins. Locations & session times: flicks.com.au/movie/naza/ #GazaGenocide #IsraeliWarCrimes #EndTheOccupation #FreePalestine

1/3rd of companies in Aus don’t pay tax on their profits including: Murdoch’s News Holdings $1.8B Adani $1.3B Chevron $17B Exon Mobil $23B Transurban $2B Energy Aus $7B Shell made $30B paid only $47M Glencore $25B paid $67M Google $10B paid $89M Netflix $1.4B paid $8M But it’s the immigrants!

I saw the part of the video where ON mock Jacqui Lambie and her health condition (pelvic floor prolapse). It is absolutely disgusting. Every politician should call this vile video out. Pauline Hanson needs to step up and apologise and have the video removed from all platforms.

It's inexcusable, ABC, to not state clearly that this is PALESTINIAN land. Those attacking & destroying lives & olive trees are not "settlers". They're ILLEGAL INVADERS, seeking to remove the existing & rightful inhabitants by destroying their means of existence & in many cases killing them. #Auspol

Hey @albomp.bsky.social - this is getting confusing. Time to tell the Australian people whose side we are supposed to be on: Ukraine's? Or Trump & Putin's? And then explain how having dozens of US bases on Australian soil - or Australian military bases controlled by the US - makes us more secure?

Wonderful to be on this week’s episode of The Guardian’s Australian Politics Podcast, speaking with political editor Tom McIlroy about what dominated the headlines this past week. We spoke about a range of topics - from the private health bill to what's next for Kooyong, JSCEM, and more.
