Bless. What a day that was.

Michaela Cash - who’s set to take his position as leader of the Opposition in the Senate - is busy giving a speech. Her excitement for her promotion whilst trying to keep focused on Birmingham is bizarre, but not unexpected.

“Vote for us cause long-gone dead blokes gave you Medicare” just isn’t the vote winner that Labor thinks it is in 2025.

With the news that the PM scuttled the environmental bill to avoid an election scare campaign, looks like the Coalition runs the environment ministry as well.

There are several examples of this government being forced back to the legislative drawing board on competence grounds (think Naru designation; NZYQ). It feels like this will inevitably return to the parliament for amendment in the future because it’s being jammed though this week. #auspol

No fan of David Speers here but I suspect the return of Donald Trump to the White House would be fair to ask about in the PMs first sit down interview since the poll.

Another cracker of a story from @squigglyrick.bsky.social
