Oh dear. How/why did MMA company get the contract? Good to see some parliamentarians and investigative journalists asking questions and the Audit Office (ANAO) sharpening its auditing tools. Privatising aged care and disability services is a big scam. #auspol thesaturdaypaper.com.au/share/18508/Vt…

COVID in aged care continues to grow at astonishing rates!!! We are at 80+week HIGH now.

One dead resident every 4 hours from COVID last week.

This story should be front page for days…Japan doesn’t even need all the gas we are selling it..it’s reselling it!

While the our Minister for (exporting) Resources says our trading partners are in desperate need for our gas…they’re actually busy onselling it!

What are you doing, @Tanya_Plibersek and Steve Dimopoulos MP? This is an utter disgrace.

Endangered species are being killed and having their homes destroyed.

Please RT if you're likewise outraged and want governments to do more.

The vast majority of Australia’s gas is exported. And the biggest use of gas here in Australia is compressing all the gas we export so it fits on ships…We don’t have a gas shortage we are producing more than ever…and exporting record amounts of it. Great video #auspol #climate

WA and VIC heading for 75+ week record COVID in aged care. OUT OF CONTROL. Return some urgent basics!! RETURN THE BASICS NOW!

Interesting example of the commercial influence on, and the use of, sport.

How does swimming feel about artistic freedom?

First Nations rights?

Our politicians have shown courage at times. Just as the Labor party succeeded in going back on the stage 3 tax cuts, so they should again push for changes to negative gearing and capital gains tax discounts. It's time!

The immigration debate: smoke, mirrors and a dash of xenophobia - johnmenadue.com/the-immigratio…

The socio-political mathematics of Covid minimisation.

Populist politicians have now replaced one model of society, with another. And it’s mostly been done with toxic maths. /1

Our own then-PM declared Covid as good as over in Oz, in late-2021, because he had an election he wanted to win in early 2022.

More than 25,000 people are now dead as a direct result of that action. (And he lost the election anyway.) /21

Every day I come here and watch people struggling to find a ‘we’. So many pleading Tweets about horrible things, that nothing is being done about, as a community.

That to me is the key thing to understand, if we want change.

We need to talk much more about networks. /1

'None of the acts of hate committed by Israel today—not the gangs of roving “settlers” destroying food & water ... not the sniper drones or the 1000s of children turned into meat & memories—are apparently at odds with our professed values as Australians.'
