$350 billion for Aukus submarines but we can’t afford 350 research jobs
A government that can’t bring itself to tax fossil fuel, big tech or any wealth properly but defunds its critical institutions is not a good government, sorry

I have a new iPhone (thanks to Apple’s build in obsolescence) and I’m using facial recognition for the first time. It doesn’t seem to recognise me in the mornings until after I’m caffeinated

AGAIN we find out that Commissioner Major General Brereton had been involved in undisclosed conflicts of interest. What’s it going to take for the Albanese Government to finally realise his position is untenable??

Easiest way for the Australian government to be able to make policy changes that ignore scientific advice is to castrate the agency that produces scientific research that informs that advice. Job done.

This guy's position became untenable years ago. And yet here we still are, where everytime someone looks at something it just gets worse.
A previous disclosure that the head of the federal corruption watchdog had been consulted 11 times has been corrected to 21 following questions from the ABC.

So much gets lost in the noise and all the misdirects. But it all comes down to, the fact that those in power will do anything to keep it.

The only thing trickling down is the cruelty
Amazon announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year.
UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year.
Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M.
This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

Hey #Auspol
When Massachusetts passed a "millionaires tax" in 2023, conservatives claimed the rich would flee.
But two years later, they haven't — and MA has collected $5.7B for infrastructure and public education.
A reminder that positive change can still happen at the state level.
