#insiders being taken for a ride. Four days ago no-one had heard about Telehealth for assisted dying, which will affect a handful of people a year, now it’s squeezed out all other serious debate. ALP will be delighted no one is questioning how it’s governing! #Auspol

Some misty eyed revisionism going on as #insiders panel tries to convince themselves there are “exchanges of ideas” at Alp National conference. When was the last policy debate at these conferences that made any difference? It’s all or/theatre and the media are the actors as well. #Auspol

Give the PR champs a gold medal for distraction. In the face of global turmoil, reportage from ALP conference leads with Telehealth for Assisted dying: who knew that was a pressing problem? Palestine, gambling, housing, Trump, economy, tertiary education, Aukus, AI not mentioned. #Auspol

#Alintaenergy genius right there on LH scale that is! All those resources and a graph that makes no sense! You don’t need AI to create slop.

The #Ausalert is a disaster. The Minister says the technology is better than available to States, but states issue warnings, not the Feds. The govt should make the tech available to states. Also it’s being rolled out in parallel…confusing much? DV survivors have to turn their phones off! #Auspol

Gambling donations (From The Age today) to ALP/Libs/Nats which explain why we aren’t banning betting advertising, and shows why we must vote Community Independent. #Auspol

Geebus The Age, the kid’s school isn’t connected to the possible crime. This is salacious reporting. Do better. @meadea.bsky.social

Average exec pay up from $5.7m to $6m, about 6%….profits up 4.2% last calendar year. It’s not workers’ wages which are driving up inflation. #Auspol

Good news for beef industry. #auspol

Looking forward to specified anti-racism protection for our Indigenous people, and Kurds, Rohingya, Armenians, Macedonians. Actually intolerance legislation covers all this but “backlash…”

#adelaide airport Pantry coffee shop. $20 for 1 large, 1 regular Chai. $6.50 for banana bread. In 1 hour customers cleaned own tables, floor not cleaned and they've introduced machines to reduce staff. Inflation is not a wages problem - it's greedy rent seekers.

From The Climate Brink, a deconstructed emissions graph that makes more sense to me. #climate

They put Jewish Council on. Sarah got reported fairly in AJN, before the article was taken down.

I just saw this alert advertisement on Instagram. I’d never heard of “Presidential alert” so looked it up. If Aust emergency agencies can’t sort this mess out, why are they even in charge? Or is Google Azi completely wrong? #Auspol

Well that’s all good news for grain farmers in Australia…from “episode 3” newsletter.

Just reminding people that when the #anti-semitism crowd raise “synagogue bombing” as evidence, in the Adass Synagogue in Melb the Iranians did it and the place was anti-Zionist anyway. #auspol

Sophie Cunningham #WNBL is being pilloried as racist for being a white woman defending against black women in a black dominated league she loves! MAGA and Fox are losing their minds. Don’t buy it. #Auspol

Don’t let politicians keep you informed, they’ll mislead. Here are some commodity graphs from Trading Economics to keep you up to date. Over 10 years… #Auspol

“Largest increase in peacetime budget…” says Conroy. $117bn. Defence on forward estimates. Defence inflation (see attached) is about x4 2001 to now. His budget is equivalent of $41bn… clearly lower than previous spend. Lying about defence…building trust! #Auspol #NPC

I’m angry with journos at Nat Press Club again…today they ARE following up with questions forcing Conroy to answer, which they did NOT do for Hanson. It’s marginally better. Also what’s with “Gidday Minister” and “congrats on reforms.” Neither reek of impartiality. Do better you lot. #NPC #Auspol

When Chalmers says inflation is too high remember this….Household consumption includes “stocking up for cyclones!” Bugger all discretionary funding increase. The RBA data screws employment and reduces wealth creation. #Auspol

The idea that a company could take over another and immediately “cut wages by 30%” must make One Nation leadership in Australia salivate on behalf of their funding masters. #Auspol

Aust Story doing it again - rehabilitating Scott Miller’s reputation. Cares for his granny, cleaned her pool once, explained how he went broke, crying wife. Almost no mention that his drug dealing killed people and ruined lives. No questioning him on that! Next up, Ivan Milat! Shame #ABC. #auspol

Bloody hell @peterfitz1.bsky.social who seems to be mentoring his partner @lisawilkinson1.bsky.social by explaining her book has to be very big and bloody thick! 568 pages!

The ABC should be extremely disappointed with this survey, but you just know it will trumpet “Australia’s most trusted news.” But…70%! From Capital Brief. #Auspol @meadea.bsky.social

That’s 3 gambling ads in six mins #Albomp. Your gambling reforms are rubbish. Gambling destroys families and kills people, and you did nothing. #Auspol

@albomp.bsky.social two gambling ads in 5 mins on SBS #Worldcup coverage. Kids are watching. Your reforms don’t work but I’m sure the gambling companies are rolling in cash. #auspol

@albomp.bsky.social must be so proud of letting down his friend the late Peta Murphy on gambling reform. Every kid in Australia right now is watching #Worldcup and they get to see their heroes endorse gambling which destroys families and kills people. #auspol

The only giant cuttlefish breeding season in the world has completely failed this year! #Climatechange, #oceanwarming, toxins in our waterways. 🧪 www.facebook.com/photo.php?fb...

The Liberal Leader on the SA Senate ticket says we can ignore bird flu because it’s just big pharma boosting profits from vaccines. He’ll be first into bed with One Nation. Meantime birds die, laying hens at risk, farmers’ income at risk. #auspol
