Chris Minns exaggerated the scale of antisemitism in NSW – and won't apologise

The NSW premier had Australia believe antisemitic hate was running rampant. Police data has shown that to be false.

Among the most hideous & ubiquitous historical fables taught in this country are about the “discovery” of America and the “settling” of North America by pioneers. But there’s even more.

This Indigenous People’s Day,decide to learn.Ned Blackhawk & @rebeccanagle.bsky.social’s works are extraordinary.

"Maria" is rolling up raisins under the hot Madera sun. To earn $70, she has to roll 1,000 sheets! Each row has around 250 sheet. It's hard grueling work walking on the burning sand for hours rolling one sheet after another. #WeFeedYou

The best songwriter you probably don't know, but will, Peter Milton Walsh wants you to listen but it's even better if you feel. "I am literal in many ways but music works beyond that, the power is different. And it’s irresistible.”
Some words here anyway.

Do you remember the deal @albomp.bsky.social and @australianlabor.bsky.social did with the LNP remnants to establish a # NACC
…and how has that turned out?
Not hard to forecast the effect of a duopoly ‘deal’ on environmental protections (a political oxymoron)

I don’t know about you, but I’m a bit scared of any new ‘environment laws’ that Labor can get Matt Canavan and Andrew Hastie to vote for…I think they will be better described as ‘ how to build more mines faster laws’ www.abc.net.au/news/2025-10...

This guy would rather co-govern with the LNP, an otherwise irrelevant soon to be minor party, than negotiate with the Greens.

That says so much.

How's that fire-ant program, big fella?

I never normally get any kind of review or feedback but this tour is something people can approach more easily. Here is a lovely, thoughtful piece on our Sydney show last Friday. (though I am not into any kind of karate movement as perceived here) cityhub.com.au/dave-graney-...

David Pocock asks Don Farrell some serious questions about why the govt has not implemented an important recommendation from the #RobodebtRC.
Farrell caught playing on his phone, not even paying attention.🙄 Pocock hasn’t the patience to try again & moves on. #Estimates

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

It was intense in that it was the first time we had ever played a lot of the material. So it was very challenging and exciting.

There are 2 types of @davegraney.bsky.social @claremoore.bsky.social shows: those where you lose yourself in the music & those where you lose yourself in the words. Tonight was the 2nd sort. It rekindled some of the creative projects I've locked away in a drawer over the last 25 years....
