The Senate expresses “extreme disapproval” against Senator Faruqi and disallows her participation in delegations. FFS! Senators who have supported Netanyahu voted for this yet their reprehensible and inhumane conduct is unsanctioned. Beggars belief! theguardian.com/australia-news…
Richard Marles talking about a sober serious and thoughtful defence plan😳 Defends AUKUS. Have we thought about attacking China, Are we serious about conflict with China, and have we soberly assessed the implications of attacking our biggest and most important trading partner? 😱
Starving civilians and children being slaughtered by the IDF. When will our parliament take action against genocide? Recognise Palestine and sanction the Israeli govt. theguardian.com/global-develop…
A significant debate took place in the UK Parliament on Gaza. Massive condemnation of the Israeli govt and calls for sanctions against Israel. The Left of the ALP must demand a parliamentary debate and seek sanctions against the genocidal Israeli govt. theguardian.com/world/2025/jul…
I reckon if the parliament is to be “dignified” then treating the genocide in Gaza as only requiring platitudes and reluctant expressions of concern demeans the nations dignity. How about sanctions on Israel and its genocidal ministers? How about expelling the Israeli ambassador?
Ley and Duniam attack Labor for joining other nations to condemn Israel for denying humanitarian aid to Gazans. Hostages should be released but ignoring the Israeli genocide in Gaza is heartless and inhumane. Goodness knows what they say in private! theguardian.com/australia-news…
ABC projecting David O’Byrne will support the Liberals. This is a big call when David’s politics have always been progressive.
Eric Abetz flailing around trying to justify claiming govt without a clear pathway to a majority or confidence on the floor of parliament. His angst is understandable, Labor has a real chance to form govt.
Heartened by Dean Winter’s speech. Saying he wants to work together with respect opens the prospect of a Labor govt with the support of the Greens and Independents. Building a good society in Tasmania needs a progressive parliament.
Given that there is a real possibility that there could be a progressive govt in Tasmania with a Labor /Greens/ Independent coalition Dean Winter should not rule this out! Housing, climate, health , workers rights and education could be improved with a progressive coalition.
Morrison to testify to the US House of Reps on economic coercion😂 Must be giving the Trump regime tips on how to coerce the sick and disadvantaged. A masterclass on lies deceit and RoboDebt on the cards. Who’s paying for this? theguardian.com/australia-news…
Time to stop the handwringing and platitudes. Implement Labor policy recognise the state of Palestine and increase sanctions against a state that is committing genocide. abc.net.au/news/2025-07-1…
Peta Credlin spewing out a disrespectful, uninformed, bile ridden temper tantrum masquerading as political commentary. This twisted excuse for journalism demonstrates why the electorate rejected the Coalition and their Murdoch masters. This demeans Australian journalism.
Richard Marles running the line that Labor has done a review into AUKUS. Absolute rubbish! No analysis of why we need nuclear powered subs to sit off the coast of China or why we signed off in 24 hours with no critical analysis. Sick of militarism dominating the ALP.
Peace through strength and deterrence over and over again as Angus Taylor talks tough, claims he is clear on defending Taiwan but dodges a straight answer. We should not commit to a war we know we cannot win. Diplomacy will produce better results than the crazy AUKUS ever will!
Nick Dreyenfurth , the Labor darling of the Murdoch press, launches a disgusting attack on Louise Adler, Antony Loewenstein and Jewish Australians who courageously oppose the genocide in Gaza. He ignores 50,000 deaths and attacks those who expose the inhumane Israeli government.
Treasury calls for a “coherent and well prioritised housing policy”. Surely addressing -ve gearing and CGT would be a priority. This would remove distortions in the market and assist in focusing on building affordable, well designed public housing for working class Australians.
I welcome Albo’s refusal to bow to US demands to join US in a war against China over Taiwan. AUKUS is an expensive, dangerous military and economic mistake. Jim Chalmers claims we have conducted a review 😳 What review? What outcomes? When? By whom? theguardian.com/australia-news…
I hope that the demand by the Trump regime for Australia to commit to supporting the US in a war with China over Taiwan is a wake up call on the dangers of AUKUS and the Force Posture Agreement. Labor should reject involvement and put peace over war! abc.net.au/news/2025-07-1…
