Ellie Smith - who was unsuccessful at the recent election in Dickson - is now running for the Moreton Bay City councillor seat of Division 11, following the resignation of Darren Grimwayde. An election is set to be called shortly. @6NewsAU
The continued use of BOMBS ON children and the weak as a weapon of war by Israel as a means to exterminate Palestinians in Gaza is shameless. SHAMELESS TOO
Mere detail…..👇🏾
Trump: It looks like it’s about $3.1 billion Powell: I’m not aware of that. Trump: It just came out Powell: You just added in a third building Trump: It’s a building that’s being built Powell: It was built five years ago. @Acyn
If a defender of Palestinian lives/rights or intl law said Israel was racing to "wipe out Gaza" & "make it Jewish" they'd be accused of antisemitic blood libel. But when an actual minister in the Israeli govt says it? Meh.

The Nazis didn't begin with gas chambers. The Zionists didn't begin with mass starvation. The road to a final solution is lined with escalatory actions and rhetoric. At every stage our governments have encouraged an openly declared and entirely preventable holocaust
The continued use of starvation of children and the weak as a weapon of war by Israel as a means to exterminate Palestinians in Gaza is shameless.The ghosts of the Warsaw Ghetto surely would not agree to these tactics.
Thanks @CaseyBriggs big shoes to fill bud doing and did a great job in Tasmania 👍

"The big mistake made by critics of the [@AlboMP] government and businessses is that they only see risks from the economic relationship with China when, in fact, one the big benefits is enhanced security". New piece from me in today's @FinancialReview 👇
NEW: in emphasising economic links on his trip to China last week, PM @AlboMP earned the ire of prominent national security commentators. And, as usual, businesses were portrayed as geopolitcally naive and only focused on dollars. Wrong, wrong, wrong. 👇afr.com/policy/foreign…
Feels impossible to concentrate on domestic Australian politics given what is happening in Gaza (we have now allowed irreversible damage from malnutrition to occur, as well as the intensifying slaughter of starving civilians) FWIW the blog is running live.australiainstitute.org.au
One of my favourite cartoons by @Broelman Lend me your ears... broelman.com.au/2024/07/18/len… via @Broelman
EARLIER THIS WEEK: Dr Ken Henry AC addressed the National Press Club of Australia on “Our last, best chance – national environment laws to restore nature and power the net zero economy.” Missed it? Watch the replay on ABC iView or our YouTube channel. Fernanda Pedroso…
Thumbs up to PM @AlboMP re his China visit…a much needed reset of our economic and diplomatic relationship with our largest trading partner.A marked improvement on warmongers Morrison’s Marauders and Dutton’s Doomsday Warriors.
If this is a “hoax” and only perpetrated by “stupid people” then why did Trump hold a party at the White House to perpetrate it?
We need to reduce hysteria about changes to the tax system. Hopefully this ‘leak’ will expand the scope of what’s possible. It’s pretty obvious we need to balance the budget & look beyond personal income tax - the money has to come from somewhere. #auspol abc.net.au/news/2025-07-1…
