'FutureCoal is already influencing the Australian debate in a way that amounts to putting lipstick on a pig.
'If the Coalition is ever to aspire to office again, it has to wake up to the fact that a majority of voters, according to current polling, know a pig when they see one.'

Texas influencer based in Russia. Wouldn’t be surprised if most MAGA influencers are Russian based. That’s the state of the manipulated (happy to be manipulated because hate is seductive) world.
X has changed their policy and now you can see where the accounts are based.

A deadly funny thriller. Pure chaos. Dark comedy "Reckless" (2025) is a 4-part mini-series about two feuding Indigenous siblings in Fremantle, WA. Stars Tasma Walton and Hunter Page-Lochard, with Clarence Ryan and Jessica De Gouw. On SBS and #SBSOnDemand 📺

Liberal Leader Sussan Ley has dived into the sewer with her recent tweets, joining Barnaby Joyce, Matt Canavan, Pauline Hanson & Ralph Babet with nonsense attacks on Labor ministers or policy. She's destroying both her own credibility (and that of the Liberal Party) by posting blatant lies. #auspol

So many things I'm disappointed in by ABC News. But it always provides up-to-date news and advice when critical events are unfolding, esp. through local ABC radio. Sending good wishes to the people of the Tiwi Islands and Northern Arnhem Land in the NT. #CycloneFina #ourABC #JournalismMatters

As a child of the 1970's, I grew up on beer and cigarette ads. Fortunately long gone. The ubiquitous gambling ads of today have taught children, teens & young adults that you can't enjoy any sport w/o a bet with your mates. And PM Albo does nothing. 😠 #auspol #GamblingAdBan #SocialMediaBan

PM @albomp.bsky.social sounds like a befuddled 80yo 2GB listener, not the PM of a progressive Labor Govt. The #SocialMediaBan is an insult to engaged teens who use social media to learn about history, politics, world events, science, music, art, film, sport. Yet still no #GamblingAdBan? 🤔 #auspol

Teacher Helga Lam had sexual relations with 4 male students (aged 13 to 16) in the 1970's. The criminal case against her collapsed when the NSW Supreme Court ruled the law didn't apply to women. Now a judge has found she couldn't be expected to have known her conduct would cause harm. 😠 #childabuse
