If the Bob Brown Foundation was active in Qld there would be blockades on destructive wind farm developments bulldozing tens of thousands of hectares of old growth forests, not turning blind eyes.

This is what forest defenders are supposed to do.

Steven Nowakowski is right and the campaign of denigration against him by the federal government and some conservation groups has been shameful. Thousands of hectares of pristine native forest bulldozed all along the Great Dividing Range for wind farms.

It is about time those of us in progressive politics owned up to our failures. ·       We argued for social justice for all and ended up arguing it should only be for a favoured few identity groups. ·       We argued for women’s rights and ended up arguing men could be women and

It seems that the Greens are not the only ones with problems at the top. The Victorian Liberals are doing their best to help get Victorian Labor back into govt with persecution of Moria Deeming. I’m glad Moria’s tough.

I am hanging onto my current membership of the Greens in the hope that I can wait out their current obsession with gender ideology and identity politics generally, but I won’t wait forever.

Elect me convenor of the Queensland Greens, give me a sensible campaign team and I would end this obsession with gender ideology and performative politics, genuinely address the concerns of ordinary Australians, not just inner city elites, and their vote would be 25% by the next

My interview on Sky News last night. Why the left needs to understand why people are voting One Nation.

Two leading progressives in the US Congress, Sen. Bernie Sanders and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, have announced legislation to impose a nationwide moratorium on the construction of new artificial intelligence data centers amid mounting concerns over their insatiable

The Australian super-tech software company, Atlassian, has just sacked 1600 employees to stay afloat in the face of competition from AI. They will be joined by many other companies which are hit by this new disruption. Some in high-tech jobs will survive, perhaps even thrive, but

When an old fella like me with a loving and much-loved family, living in a supportive community and a beautiful environment, who was one of the founders of the Greens and a life-long left-wing activist says he understands the alienation and resentments that underlie the reasons

Malinauskas is right. Progressives have got to stop sneering at people who love this country and start being a bit mature. At the same time Malinauskis might counsel the ALP (and himself) about dropping all the woke bull***t that is a huge turnoff for most Australians. Fancy

We need political representatives who are not captives of vested interests - big business (ALP, LNP with mining, gambling etc) or ideological extremists (eg Greens)

I’m looking for a centre left party that is sensible, knows what a woman is, could help run the country if necessary, respects working class Australians, loves this country, and doesn’t run after every ‘luxury belief’ in vogue. If you find one, would you let me know, please?

If anyone out there is still confused about why some of us need to remain anon on social media, take a look at what has just happened to Dr Andrew Amos. AHPRA have placed conditions on his registration that prohibit him from speaking publicly on trans issues (using social

Not even the ABC can spin this one "There were cases where paediatric patients moved from psychology to hormone treatment within weeks, without a consistent process for family engagement or education," https://t.co/ht7nZwNK9l

There is no universe in which “Globalise the intifada” doesn’t mean “It’s OK to kill Jews anywhere in the world.” The second intifada killed 1,000 Israelis in pizzerias, restaurants and parties inside Israel. Responsible opposition to Israel’s actions in Gaza and West Bank should

I’m an old white male. We are the most oppressed group in the whole history of the world! If you criticise me, you are punching down on a very vulnerable group and so I shall have to weaponise the party’s complaint system against you and organise a gigantic media pile-on to make
