The Albo government's antisemitism bill is a rushed hatchet job. Nobody has proper time to consider it carefully enough, and it will have all sorts of unintended consequences if passed. It is the worst kind of law-making: moral panic induced, pandering to powerful lobby groups' demands.

I’m still amazed that the sub judice aspect has been ignored in the rolling media campaign for a Bondi royal commission.

Rabbi Eli Schlanger is STILL being praised on the ABC News website. This Zionist hate preacher openly celebrated Israel's #GazaGenocide, raised funds for illegal Israeli settlements in the #WestBank AND called for the ethnic cleansing of "Arabs" from Palestine bc "it's our land, it belongs to us." 😲

In a wealthy country like Australia, poverty should be a policy choice – not a natural condition. Yet here we are, in 2025, with government income support payments that sit well below the poverty line, and tax concessions that overwhelmingly benefit the already wealthy.
