If they won’t abide by the rules then why shld the UN - just shutdown the murderous fascists.

..from any consulting or associated role that influences govt.

The above is quite easy for people with integrity; compassion and competence.

The above is intended to demonstrate a principle that every elected rep & public servant shld be held to.

That all people will be equal in the eyes of the law;
will have equal access to health care (incl dental); education; social services (including Basic Income).

That if found to be intentionally misleading they will resign w/ut benefits & be excluded ../5

Every person/party should sign a Declaration that they will:

Serve all the people of Australia -

Ensure everyone has a safe & appropriate place to live
That children will be protected from predators (including and especially law "enforcement"). ../4

Unless & until we change the paradigm this govt. will drag us into the abyss at the whim of a lump of lard that is poisonous & fuelled by hate; stolen money; hubris; bile & delusion.

@australianlabor.bsky.social has betrayed every value it said it stood for and they must go.

Unless and until we (humans) learn to live in co-operation with all living things; we will continue to drag every living thing into the abyss.

It's easy if you simply take a moment to understand that every living thing has a purpose and should be treated with respect.

In unanimous decision, Australia’s highest court is not having Candace Owens. They're denying her a visa, claiming she failed a “character test” according to that nation’s standards.

More of this, please.

Environment laws that don’t stop new gas and coal are like putting screen doors on a submarine.

People make a big deal about One Nation’s recent polling in Australia. However, their 2025 lower house election vote + 2025 most other right micro parties lower house vote + 3% L/NP vote = around 13-14%. Meh.

Arguably Australia under the Duopoly has already completely and shamefully fully ceded our Defence and Foreign policies to Amerika

It looks like Labor and Albanese are about to completely cede our minerals market to Amerika

www.crikey.com.au/2025/10/15/r...

The dirty secret of Albanese’s 'critical minerals' bid to curry favour with Trump

China has a firm grip on the extraction and production of rare-earth elements and their products. Albanese wants to help Trump change that.

#Israel kills Palestinians in Gaza and has announced it will not abide by the terms for facilitating humanitarian aid, despite the #ceasefire agreement. This is reported by various news sites. Nothing on Australia's ABC News re this. Do they have a blanket rule: no negative reports re Israel? #Gaza

It’s great to see the cross bench coming out early and with strength opposing the Govt’s evil #FOI Amendment Bill. Here’s @helenhainesindi.bsky.social’s amendment killing off the ability of the Govt to charge FOI applications fees and for officials to summarily dismiss FOI requests. #auspol

“Any flotilla member who upset Israeli guards was subjected to twisted & tightened handcuffs… received beatings. I was hung from metal shackles on my wrists & ankles & beaten in stomach, back, face, ear & skull by a group of men & women guards, one of whom sat on my neck & face blocking my airways.”

Any flotilla member who upset
the Israeli guards was subjected
