Another First Nations woman dead in police custody taking the total to 59 Indigenous deaths in the hands of police in just 2 years.

We have shown how quickly we can act against racism towards Jewish Australians.
Why has that same urgency never existed for First Nations ppl?

In Andrew Bolt's infamous 2018 "tidal wave of immigrants column", he specifically singled out Jewish communities as 'part of the problem'

The idea that the far-right, anti-immigration parties and xenophobe media are going to protect the Aus Jewish community is absurd

Last night @davidpocock.bsky.social and I read onto the Hansard an interview by the President of Nauru that the Albanese Government has been desperately trying to keep secret.

It shows Nauru plans to send refugees to places they fled. No wonder the secrecy.

This is deplorable.

Koalas suffer and ecosystems are trashed, because the Victorian government won't take sufficient proactive measures to prevent koala starvation.

The issue has been known for months, and such crises are predictable and preventable.

This is a massive political failure.

👀 on NSW's proposed planning law overhaul! 👀

Read both the ABC & Guardian reports to understand how the NSW govt is using deceptive language & misrepresentations of ICAC's role in shaping the bill to ram through NSW planning law changes that're a bad-faith power grab 1/
'Deceitful' planning laws bypass environment, corruption safeguards, experts say
There are growing fears that a major overhaul of planning laws promoted to fast-track housing development will bypass environmental protections and remove safeguards against corruption.

There’s some pretty alarming stuff happening in NSW right now with big changes to the planning laws being rushed through Parliament.

The proposed amendments create major corruption risks and should be closely reviewed by ICAC.
