I agree with this sentiment - I think Albo has been calm and measured in contrast to some hysteria from the combined right wing media and opposition.
Well I think @albomp.bsky.social is doing a good job. He’s giving us calm, considered leadership at a time when hearts are breaking, hounds are mindlessly braying and the far right is doing its best to divide us.
Of all the people who could possibly be leading us, I believe we are lucky it’s Albo

The British state has used every method they can to isolate and break the spirits of the 8 prisoners who stand with Palestine.
They are now close to dying & the British state doesn't care.

The Libs are weaponising the tragedy. It is a disgrace. And many of the community most tragically affected by the events of last Sunday are themselves, immigrants.
So is it only some immigrants that need to be targeted? ….thought so.

I wish to offer my own condolences to Jewish groups in Australia and around the world for the horrendous attack that happened yesterday in Bondi. I believe all thinking Australians want to live in a harmonious multicultural country that brings the richness of diversity to us all. Sympathy. #Bondi

There are now more guns in the community per capita than in the aftermath of the Port Arthur massacre, with at least 2,000 new firearms lawfully entering the community every week

I find it fascinating watching Aussies sitting in a prosperous, functional, well-governed country with an unglamorous but adequate government, and somehow managing to direct their hatred against these things, rather than focusing on shitheads like Dutton/Joyce/Hanson who are trying to destroy it

I don't want to tell Jessica Page how to do her job, but I'd have thought a piece of legislation which united the Greens, One Nation, the Legalise Cannabis Party, and the Animal Justice Party in their opposition was a clear sign that there were issues needing to be addressed, not ignored. #auspol

There was 1 question on the minds of the #LiberalParty today about #NetZero : What policy could we come up with that won't tear our party asunder? No question about climate science, no question about economics, no question even about political viability. Just how can we keep this shitshow together?

Cowardly, irresponsible. It looks like Australia’s L-NP Coalition will dingo out of net zero 2050. Awaiting Sussan Ley’s Liberal partyroom decision = leadership test. Failure to urgently mitigate emissions via new technologies exposes our children to ever increasing risk.

If the US resumes nuclear weapons testing, this would be extremely dangerous for humanity
All of the nine nuclear-armed nations are investing huge sums in new weapons. And the numbers of nuclear weapons “available for use” is climbing again.
