Peter Murphy

Rupert Murdoch has a papal knighthood. Altho not a Catholic, he was made a Knight Commander of St Gregory in 1998. I wonder if Trump's plan to block a law requiring priests to report child sexual abuse will earn him one too. 🤔 #USPolitics #CatholicChurch

This ABC News headline pushes an anti-Greens narrative. In fact, Hutton was expelled from the Greens after refusing to delete anti-trans posts made by others on his FB page! While he argues it's "free speech", he's defending anti-trans bigotry! #auspol #TransLivesMatter

By the way, @SenatorWong, just for the record— It's not "a conflict." IT'S A GENOCIDE. #auspol #GazaGenocide #FuckLabor #IStandWithSenatorFaruqi

Cowed vassal state Australia continues to quietly pay its tribute to suzerain US Empire, despite no guarantee of ever receiving any submarines, and despite the USA rapidly becoming a fascist police state under a demented dictator. #auspol #USPolitics #AUKUS

Israel’s cheerleaders spend their time denying crimes that Israel’s own leaders are proudly broadcasting to the whole world. It is the most insane atrocity denial in history, where you can see the atrocities with your own eyes, and hear the confessions from the perpetrators

Imagine studying history and politics for years so that when, as a politician, you are confronted with atrocities and genocide you would know the right thing to do… and then not doing it.🤔 @SenatorWong

As a labor life long supporter, I cannot be more appalled, disgusted and ashamed of you .@SenatorWong, and the PM we elected, all of you who've chosen to be puppets and diaper-washers of USRael and participants of the most horrific genocide humanity has ever seen. Shame on you!…

Saddened to hear the news talented actor Henri Szeps (1943-2025) has died. While many will remember him as Robert in TV's "Mother and Son" (1984-1994), he performed on stage and screen in numerous roles. I loved his one-man show "Wish I'd Said That" (2011). 🎭 📺 🎥 #acting

Come on Penny Wong. Paul Hanson wore a burka in Parliament; One Nation turned their back at the Welcome to Country; Maureen Faruqi holds up a statement of truth and you want her suspended. You are becoming petty!

How embarrassing for Penny Wong and the Labor government, censuring and effectively banning Mehreen Faruqi for holding up this sign. Shows how cowered and controlled Labor and LNP is by the Israel and Zionist lobby. Gutless. What a total disgrace. #AUSPOL

Trump admin plans to block a law that requires priests to report child sexual assault! The law does NOT require priests to testify in court, turn over notes or break attorney-client privilege. It simply requires them to notify authorities of child sex abuse. #USPolitics #justice

17,000 children have been killed by Israeli strikes in Gaza since 7 Oct 23. Today I joined a vigil held by human rights groups & the Palestinian community to read aloud names of some of these children. The Aus govt must take decisive action to end the genocide. #auspol #politas

I hear former Astronomer CEO Andy Byron sent Catholic fascist Connor a gift basket as a thank you for taking some social media attention off him. #ColdplayConcert #JubileeDebate

Dear @MehreenFaruqi cc @SenatorWong These words by @CElection2022 sum-up what many are thinking. #auspol #IsraeliWarCrimes #GazaGenocide #RecognisePalestine #FreePalestine

The entire Labor cabinet seems to be under the spell of Zionist lobby groups. A view which is not shared by most of the populace. Labor should get out more, starting with weekly, free Palestine, stop the genocide, let the aid trucks in, we can’t stand what we see on our screens…

Resistance and even armed struggle against a colonial occupation force is not just recognised under int'l law but specifically endorsed. I wish Penny Wong would acknowledge this. #auspol aje.io/feubis #IsraeliWarCrimes #GazaGenocide #RecognisePalestine #FreePalestine

Music teacher Melody Jenkins' tribute to #OzzyOsbourne is something special. #CrazyTrain #music #education Thanks @chromaticteach!

Just fyi, I'm genuinely upset that @triplej #Hottest100AustralianSongs didn't have a single song by James Reyne as a solo artist. "Fall of Rome" would have been in my Top5. 🎶 📻 youtu.be/N4ns3RsY9W0?si…

Dear @SenatorWong You claim we're "understandably distressed by the ongoing violence, ... but also know Australia is not responsible for what is happening in the Middle East". You disingenuous liar! I'm horrified by Israel's #GazaGenocide AND your refusal to condemn it! #auspol
