Murdoch can’t quit Mark Latham. Every rant, every stunt, every circus act = front page oxygen. He’s long past relevance, but the Tele props him up because chaos sells & distracts from real issues. #nswpol #auspol

SMH & AFR ran quotes from Hamas co-founder Sheikh Hassan Yousef “praising” Albo. Problem? He’s been locked in an Israeli prison for 2 years with no comms. That’s not journalism, that’s stenography. Time for answers. #AusPol #MediaFail

Murdoch comparing Hiroshima to the Harbour Bridge protest is as warped as it is offensive. In 1945, millions had no voice, no social media, and no ability to protest without being jailed. Today, we can speak out — and we must — to stop mass killing before it happens. #AusPol

Hey @AlboMP, There are 195 countries in the world. 186 do NOT classify Hamas as a terrorist group—they view it as resistance to Israeli occupation. Only 9 isolated nations do: 🇺🇸🇬🇧🇨🇦🇦🇺🇮🇱🇯🇵🇳🇿🇨🇭🇵🇾 Worth remembering before following blindly. Perspective matters. #auspol

When the "menu" is starvation or being shot, it's not a conflict — it's a war on civilians. Wilcox captures what too many still refuse to see. #Gaza #auspol #CeasefireNow

“Private member’s bill” or not, this campaign to ditch Net Zero is a Trojan horse — pushed by the fossil lobby and a fringe of MPs who refuse to deal with reality. It’s ideological sabotage dressed up as patriotism. #auspol

Australia increased fossil fuel subsidies by 31% last year — now $14.5 billion in public money. That's $39 million a day to prop up the industry driving climate collapse. But sure, tell us again why we “can’t afford” dental in Medicare or to raise JobSeeker. #auspol

Jillian Segal chairs the national antisemitism strategy while her household donates $50K to Advance, a far-right group that vilifies First Nations people. She says it's her husband’s money. Sorry, but integrity isn’t optional. Step down. #auspol theklaxon.com.au/segal-must-res…

113 people killed in Gaza yesterday. 15 of them, including toddlers, were waiting for food aid. Their names are known. Their lives mattered. Albanese stood beside Segal and said nothing about this. The silence is complicity. #Gaza #auspol #SegalReport

Albo stands beside Segal to fight antisemitism. Where’s the envoy for anti-Indigenous hate? No 49-point plan for stolen land, over-incarceration, or deaths in custody. Selective outrage isn't anti-racism — it's politics. #AusPol #AlwaysWasAlwaysWillBe theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

When a foreign gov commits war crimes,criticism isn’t hate speech. Segal's "antisemitism plan" risks criminalising dissent & defunding unis cheered on by Murdoch.This isn’t about safety. It’s about silencing. Australia must not be bullied into censorship theguardian.com/australia-news…

Israel’s defenders don’t want debate — they want silence. In Australia, artists are cancelled, journalists hounded, and critics smeared as “unsafe”. This isn’t about safety. It’s about censorship. #auspol #AlboMP #Gaza #Palestine

Australian media platforms uncritically amplify commentary from a foreign leader currently facing an ICC arrest warrant for alleged crimes against humanity, particularly while omitting the ongoing humanitarian crisis under his leadership abc.net.au/news/2025-07-0… via @ABCaustralia

The Libs are being wiped out by a generation that sees right through them. Gen Z is shaping up as the most progressive, climate-conscious, and equality-driven bloc in our history. Keep mocking Welcome to Country, and watch that youthquake turn into a landslide. #auspol

Trump: "I saved him from a VERY UGLY AND IGNOMINIOUS DEATH!" Also Trump: "PEACE!!!" Threatening annihilation while preaching peace is the kind of hypocrisy that defines his foreign policy — loud, reckless, and wildly self-congratulatory. #Trump #auspol #MiddleEast

ABC used taxpayer money to unlawfully sack a journalist for sharing a human rights report they themselves had aired — all because of pressure from pro-Israel lobbyists. Still no accountability. Public broadcaster or political enforcer? #auspol #ABC kangaroocourtofaustralia.com/2025/06/26/ant…

“Israel & Iran came to me, almost simultaneously...” — Trumpty Dumpty’s fantasy fanfic continues. No, two hostile nations didn’t hold hands and whisper peace into your ear. Stop rewriting history with crayon. #Iran #Israel #Trump

The language of modern politics is often self-contradictory: Governments claim to defend peace while fuelling wars. They speak of human rights while arming oppressive regimes. This isn’t just spin — it’s deliberate misdirection. #auspol #MiddleEast #ClimateCrisis

Peace is not a stage for self-congratulation. It's not a beauty pageant where you prance about begging for a Nobel Prize. Real peace is humble, quiet, and just. Not a loud American commercial with your name stamped all over it. Spare us the drama. #auspol #Trump
