As someone who covered Robodebt in part, it's clear nothing has really changed. Worse: the politics of federal Labor on social security are baffling. We keep hearing about how people have "lost trust in institutions". Wiping these debts seem a simple answer to help. Instead, they rewrote the rules.

Politicians telling us to ‘turn down the temperature’ is peak hypocrisy, @amyremeikis.bsky.social writes. "Why is it the people pointing to the fire are those being told to stop being so vocal about it?" www.deepcutnews.com/p/politician...

I often wonder if Cash is ever embarrassed by the nonsense she spouted about utes
Michaelia Cash tries to smear young First Nations leader Ethan Floyd over his Young People's Award nomination—for daring to challenge NSW’s proposal to ban phrase globalise the intifada & trying to provide aid to Gaza from a flotilla. Blatant political bullying. Shameful.

In which the ABC establishes a clear history of longstanding mental illness in a man whose political views considerably overlapped with those of Helen Haines… Only to go on to draw the longest bow in the world by platforming Dr Josh Roose, who links anti-Zionism with unhinged mental illness.

Remember the story we at #4Corners did about Channel 7, 2 years ago? About soul-crushing culture of sexism & exploitation, particularly of young women? Their internal review has vindicated our reporting, despite legal threats at the time (which went nowhere). Report: www.abc.net.au/news/2026-10...

No doubt that big tech and social media algorithms have a lot to answer for. But it’s a handy distraction for a political & media establishment who won’t critique themselves. When NewsCorp’s business model is punching down. And most legacy media is in click-baited symbiosis with One Nation’s hate.
The prime minister has accused social media of “promoting rage over reason” as MPs express concern over their safety. Meanwhile, Nationals leader Matt Canavan might be looking to switch to the lower house and Treasurer Jim Chalmers has yet more bad news for us. www.crikey.com.au/2026/10/23/s...

Asked about calls for budget discipline and cutting spending, Pocock replied: “You can make cuts, or you can grow revenue. I don’t understand why we’re slugging everyday Aussies and yet we’re happy to export gas for free.” What's remarkable is not Pocock's position, but that it isn't Labor's.

Joel Fitzgibbon has been lobbying for Ben Roberts-Smith since at least April. He appeared on Murdoch News 24 multiple times and called 2GB at least twice. Never once did the media tell their audience that Fitzgibbon is being paid by the weapons industry, and this is a coordinated campaign. #auspol
Labor Party guy Joel Fitzgibbon was once Australia's Minister of Defence. Now he works for lobbying firm CMAX. He lobbies for military and oil companies: • Navantia (navy ships) • Electro Optic (space/military) • Raytheon (weapons) • Stryker (weapons) • SYPAQ (drones) • Emperor (Oil & Gas) #auspol
Blathers on about social media while appointing NewsCorp lieutenants to consular positions. He can go fuck himself.
Albo wrote an opinion piece and aside from saying nice things about Ms Haines which clearly she deserves, he singles out Social Media playing a part and turning the temperature down. He has failed holding Big Tech to account for harmful content and does not say how he will lower his temperature.

“This started the minute that Ley took over from Dutton as federal leader,” a source said. “And Abbott is now federal president, Loughnane is now president of the Victorian division, and Peta has her nightly show on Sky and her newspaper columns.” trib.al/cExeQUh

Minns thinks this is police doing a good job
Judge Scott Nash has ordered that NSW police provide internal documents the defence team had subpoenaed, which "would include communications between police, the premier, other NSW cabinet ministers and their staff. The papers would also cover directions by senior police to officers."
Crikey has piled on the anti Victorian bandwagon over the years. Could start with a bit of balanced reporting eh?
The alleged attack on Helen Haines, politically motivated or not, has propelled a discussion about “lowering the temperature” of the country’s political climate. How did we get here? www.crikey.com.au/2026/10/21/h...
