Don't tell Jewish people this but Israel is dragging down Judaism worldwide. Jailing students and protesters for protesting the GENOCIDE, starvation, rape, murder, destruction, lack of health care, medicine, theft in Gaza, the West Bank & Lebanon committed by Israel has not helped Jews worldwide!

The ombudsman agreed that the government failed to learn the lessons of #robodebt. But it's the opposite. For #agedcare, #NDIS, #jobseeker payments & employment services, the Albanese govt has learned precisely how to apply cruel, arbitrary & dehumanizing policies to the most vulnerable. #auspol

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.

Labor brags about its economic success, yet this is getting worse. If they don't make some drastic policy to help battling Aussies, they're going to see their majority disappear. Give those votes to Independents, the only ones who fight for the starving. #Auspol theconversation.com/food-insecur...

“The principal purpose of Carbon Capture & Storage has never been to tackle the climate crisis. Instead, CCS serves to align public opinion & government policies with the fossil fuel industry’s plans for unrestricted expansion under the cover of “net-zero". www.nationalobserver.com/2022/04/06/o...

nationalobserver.comLessons from Australia show CCUS is about capturing public opinion and public finances, not carbonExperience from Australia shows the CCUS technology was not designed to contribute meaningfully to emissions reductions.

This is where the “capture and storage” plant that we were promised that has NEVER worked

AI is based on the business model of creating mass unemployment, where businesses lay off millions of workers and replace them with AI subscriptions instead. Richard breaks the issues down further on “What’s the Point?"! ⤵️ australiainstitute.org.au/post/whats-the-point-of-data-centres/

"It is blatantly irresponsible for politicians like Jess Wilson to be linking legitimate and peaceful protest of Israel’s genocide in Gaza to the Bondi terror attack. We unequivocally condemn her mislabelling of peaceful protest as antisemitic." @jewishcouncilau.bsky.social statement. #springst

If pollution laws meant anything (ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha) then both Canberra and the WA government would immediately move to shut down Chevron’s Gorgon plant

Climate disaster keeps disastering: Satellite monitoring has detected massive plumes of methane pouring from Chevron's Gorgon LNG plant in Western Australia. (This is the one connected to the world’s biggest carbon capture and storage project WHIICH IS ALSO FAILING) www.abc.net.au/news/2026-10...

It's almost as if countries look at the US and vote "Nah, fuck that!"

Excellent news. First Serbia, now Brazil, next the US. But whoever Israelis elect as next PM, seems likely that the genocidal #FarRight will remain ascendant. www.abc.net.au/news/2026-10...

We export 8x more gas annually than Qatar does and yet they tax their exports enough to completely eliminate personal income tax and we provide subsidies for our big exporters

See, we can still do good stuff!
