@senatorwong.bsky.social is Labor's leader of the Senate. Labor & the LNP have agreed that no matter how just legislation introduced to the Senate might be, if it is not from either the LNP or Labor they will combine to defeat it. Callous, ruthless, despicable - www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

You hypocrite @albomp.bsky.social, bleating for Xmas gifts for families doing it tough when you know your @australianlabor.bsky.social govt's billionaire-friendly policies are responsible for the jump in child poverty & homelessness. And you have the chutzpah to ask *us* to 'tone it down'? #auspol

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

βLarge AI firms are shopping around the world trying to sell their snake oil and the price is copyright reform. International creative businesses are looking at Australia and cannot believe the government has been duped.β The Albanese govt isnβt just risking Australian IP. It is exposing the world.

Your Legacy @albomp.bsky.social why are you not on top of any issue. Marrickville Golf Club an instance? At least fire the staff member who lied to you. Or did they?
Labor has introduced a βrobo assessmentβ algorithm to assess aged people for home care packages. CARE FOR ELDERLY PEOPLE SHOULD NOT BE DECIDED BY AN ALGORITHM! 8 out of 10 QLD health professionals said it underestimated levels of need. It is unacceptable to remove HUMANS from this decision.

Hey @albomp.bsky.social - you may have misinterpreted the demand to #RaiseTheRate. #inequality #auspol
$2.2 million is an outrageous sum of money for one public servant to earn. What's more, 17 people in the Future Fund are now on more than a million - only one woman among them. Australians who can barely afford groceries right now, will share my outrage. tinyurl.com/mak89juh

It's very, very telling, I think, that the markets are so concerned about the pro-democracy incumbent winning

"If approved, it would be the first time a critical habitat has been designated since the Threatened Species Protection Act came into force three decades ago." Alternative headline: Can a 'critical habitat' designation save the endangered Maugean Skate from extinction & salmon-farming threats
The environmental regulation process propping up Maugean skate-endangering industrial salmon farming, is as diseased as the salmon produced by Salmon Tasmania #ExtinctionFlavouredSalmon #ToxicSalmonFarming
Can't imagine what it takes to be a Public Servant when we have an evil Government @albomp.bsky.social
No one should have to choose between the life theyβve built here in Australia and the parents they left behind. The Greens are fighting for a system that lets families have both. Because of a go-slow on processing by Govt a parent visa today means waiting 18 to up to 42 years.

Apartheid Israel's genocidal crimes against Palestinians are documented, evidenced, relentless. All enabled by the so-called international community, including Ireland. We have legal obligations under international law to act to prevent egregious human rights abuses. #SanctionsNow
Ahhhh I remember restaurants in Hirafu (Niseko, Hokkaido) during Chinese New Year when expatriates from all over Asia descended upon us with their hordes of children. The noise was unbearable. Then came electronic games & later smart phones, what bliss, not a word spoken, well not by the children.
Sardinian restaurants ban families from using phones at the table | Italy | The Guardian share.google/eJ1EY4r3SiYG.... Fantastic, more should do this. Mobile phone usage during meals is so bloody rude.

So, ICE will round up innocent US citizens, even shoot them dead, on the vaguest of suspicions yet roll out the red carpet for a fleeing non US citizen criminal?
The U.S. plans to issue a visa to defeated Brazilian presidential candidate Flavio Bolsonaro, a senior State Department official announced, confirming reports that the senator fled Brazil following his loss.
