I hope it is widely recognised that there are multiple voices in Israel opposing Netanyahu’s war. The sooner he and his right wing cronies go, the better www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...
‘Humanitarian city’ would be concentration camp for Palestinians, says former Israeli PM
Ehud Olmert says forcing people into camp would be ethnic cleansing, and anger at Israel is not all down to antisemitism

While many recipients were recognised for their services to the community, Morrison was the only one recognised for pretending to be of service the community.

What Jacinta Price’s defection from the Nationals to Liberals shows is that she has no loyalty to anyone but herself. But we already knew that from the way she treated the 80%+ Aboriginal community who voted Yes for the Voice. Price ruined a once in a generation chance at reconciliation, for what?

Amazing that this cartoon is from 2022. Nothing has changed. #auspol #ausvotes25 Dutton wont be missed.
In memory of Peter Dutton's political career, here's a cartoon from Eureka Street in 2022 when he became leader of the Opposition and was trying (again) to soften his image.

Does anyone who works for the Murdochracy own a mirror?
How can they look at themselves in a mirror & not feel utterly ashamed?
Bill Shorten took a positive, balanced, thoughtful, fact & science based panoply of well constructed policies to 2019 election.
RW media & LNP lied & crucified him.

On the day Dutton announced his nuclear power plants policy he said details would be released within days.
A year+ later, there is still no detailed policy information. No consultation with communities, no costings.
It’s impossible to know the costs for a plant design that doesn’t actually exist.

In a time-honoured display of procrastination over a 1000-word article I'm supposed to be writing for @theshot.net.au on Dutton's lack of policy, I got on a "when he got there the cupboard was there" jag & wrote a 55 word limerick instead. Not sure that Dave will think it a viable substitute.
