Do you care about an issue? _Always_ vote _against_ the incumbent - Liberal or Labor - unless that candidate has categorically stated they will support your issue. Together we can clean up the mess. #nswpol #auspol

Australia burns through about 25 billion litres of petrol and diesel every year. Replacing petrol cars with EVs would cut our reliance on expensive imported foreign fuel. But EVs still make up only about 2% of Australia’s 20 million vehicles. More affordable EVs & a strong

What will it take for the major parties to put Australians ahead of vested interests from gambling giants to multinational gas companies to big tech? If AI data centres are putting strain on our construction workforce, energy and water supply, the least we can do is get some

Our Navy is “essentially non-existent”. We’re vulnerable to drone warfare. We’ve limited munitions. We’ve no fuel security. We’re spending our Defence money on a never arriving #AUKUS sub force. And Govt just kneecapped oversight of the organisation that put us here. 1/2 #auspol

Apparently, the first navy to refuse to help Trump secure the Strait of Hormuz was the United States Navy.

Minister Wells has revealed who's really running the show when it comes to online gambling reform: the gambling companies themselves. The same companies that Peta Murphy, who chaired the inquiry that produced the Murphy Report, described as predatory. Time to ban gambling ads

Last year the Australian Government gave the fossil fuel industry $16.3 billion of taxpayers money, $31,000 a minute, more than it spends on our airforce. https://t.co/zn6wmzW4N3

Launching #taxdata so you can search top companies and find out how much tax they do/don't pay https://t.co/A9Ja7feHKP Just pop the name in for data (on say Newscorp's zero tax on more than $20B in income) Also - the $37B Defence black hole Video: https://t.co/2nO4xr1RXh

Nice country you've got there, Australia. Sure would be a shame if someone loused it up. #auspol

Luckily The Australia Institute can help! Last year the Australian Government gave the fossil fuel industry $16.3 billion of taxpayers money, $31,000 a minute, more than it spends on our airforce. Link to research in 🧵👇 https://t.co/y6gKYBVrNz

It is important to be well armed. It is also important to be not too well armed. Being too well armed arouses suspicion in one's neighbours. It also leads one into temptation. Australia is lucky it has nothing to send to the Gulf. #auspol

Noting Defence can’t refuse Auditor-General access to its information, shutting down the Major Project Report is a significant oversight hit on Defence’s already too secretive procurement activity. More info is needed on how this accountability shutdown has occurred. #FOI #auspol

This moment from February 2025 may go down as one of the most prescient exchanges in modern diplomatic history. Zelenskyy warned Trump that while the United States may feel protected by an ocean today, a time could come when America would need help in war. Trump scolded him

When nearly 4,000 Google employees sign petitions, 13 Palantir employees walk out, and OpenAI’s head of robotics resigns over AI drifting into warfare, surveillance, and state power… we should listen. When the insiders sound the alarm, that’s a warning.

"The goal in the West Bank is to create a homogenous ethnicity in a space that is being cleansed of Palestinians, and to expand the Israeli footprint there." This is the country the war is for, what the Albanese Labor Party is supporting. https://t.co/bfq0JnuHao

@aaronsmith Under the Coalition 2013-2022 there was a decline from 5 to 0 of AUS-flagged (coastal) petroleum tankers, a decline from 8 to 2 of domestic refineries and an offshoring of petrol & diesel stockpile to Texas. Apparently now the Coalition are to be turned to for secure supply?

Massive defence projects will no longer be subject to thorough public scrutiny after a parliamentary committee ended an almost 20-year practice of having the Auditor-General publish regular reports on the progress of key military programs https://t.co/QGY84j6pIL

Defence spends the most public money on projects, by a long shot. They waste 10s of billions. A Govt controlled committee has ordered the Auditor-General to stop auditing Defence major projects. Politically good for @AlboMP - very bad for taxpayers #auspol
