A song for the times Gnarls Barkley, Cee Lo Green and Danger Mouse 'Tomorrow Died Today' youtube.com/watch?v=xXZelc… So take cover, all Gods children Even the sun has gone to hide Oh The sky is raining bullets And I'll never forget the day that tomorrow died

Late-term abortions (occurring 21 week) account for less than 1% of abortions performed annually in the USA. There are 8 facilities across the country that will perform a LTA, and access to it is HIGHLY restricted and regulated. No woman is walking into one of these facilities at 39 weeks pregnant and requesting an elective abortion because they no longer want to be pregnant. Stay in your lane and stop discussing things you clearly lack understanding of.

BREAKING: Major BDS victory. Energy giant Eni withdraws from Israel’s illegal offshore operations in Palestinian waters. Following this major vote of no confidence in Israel’s economy, BDS calls for an escalation in pressure on Eni to end all complicity.

Block the straight of Hormuz for a week and the world goes mad but block the Rafah crossing for years, preventing the entry of food and humanitarian aid into Gaza and nobody bats an eye. It’s not hard to see that this world values markets, profit and capitalism over human lives.

It was the biggest massacre for decades - 10,000 Sudanese killed over two days. The international community knew genocide was inevitable. Why and how did it happen? Huge thanks to @Sihanet @ikhlassahmed77 @nattyray11 @KholoodKhair theguardian.com/global-develop…

Jordon Steele-John fires up at Labor & the Coalition for once again rejecting a proposal requiring parliament approval before Aus troops are sent off to war “The Albanese govt has led Australia into an illegal & an immoral war started by a tyrant President on a whim.”🔥 #auspol

Hey @AlboMP & @MurrayWatt I marched wth 1,000's of Aust's who want to see you #EndNativeForestLogging NOW! It's the most effective way of saving wildlife, water catchments, & acting on the #ClimateCrisis We are witnessing a climate & biodiversity collapse. You can change that.

Two excellent questions about corporate handouts for r&d when the startup is owned by tiny outfits like Rio Tinto (and Gina-related companies previously) because industry has government over a jobs barrel. Neither one answered by Tim Ayres. #npc

Wasn't his performance abysmal - that three pronged answer was totally incoherent - he basically refused to answer why non start up companies with billions in profits were STILL on the govt teat and why they've screwed the CSIRO. The only thing he kept repeating was jobs (ex union guy just nbanging on about people already employed).. All the figures from actual start ups in the room must have gagged when they heard the deflection. That was the most inarticulate waffle Ive ever wtinessed for a Labor politican for sometime. He came across as clueless and deceptive. There will be no innovation whilst that bloke holds that porftfolio.

@Darkhorseman82 @lesstenny Dash cam footage videos suggest otherwise.

@lesstenny Social parasites being social parasites. Has nothing to do with safety. Its wealth extraction, power, control. Restricting movement of teens for control purposes.

Parents caught allowing a child under 16 to ride an e-scooter or e-bike would faces fines of up to $5000 under tough new Qld gov laws. while speeding will carry fines between $333 and $6676. Wow wonder if other states will follow

The UN has exposed the truth: torture is being used to destroy Palestinians. Our government is complicit We’re in Canberra right now — demanding sanctions.

This is the most satisfying news you’ll hear today ! Do you remember when a group of boys, strangers to each other, formed a human chain to save a dog from fast flowing water? Today, local authorities unveiled a “Unity Statue” at the same place to celebrate human unity.

Not content to place its company at the disposal of just one genocidal Nazi death machine, Volkswagen is going for the double whammy

While Australians complain about Medicare…… This is what the LNP Pauline Hanson wants for Australia. “My daughter recently had an ear infection. Took her to the doctor, who prescribed an antibiotic. That doctor visit cost $244. My insurance covered $60, so we owe $184 out of pocket. I pay $556/month for family health insurance. Something seems broken.” @UziCryptoo

I'm waiting for every Labor Party branch in Australia to follow the lead of Lismore. @AlboMP is no different to Howard who led Australia into wars in Afghanistan and Iraq based on massive lies. Now Albanese kowtows to the USA in the same way. Time for branches to show courage

Labor Minister for #Woodside King rules out a 25% tax on Labors biggest donors’ #Woodside #Santos , reading from the same script supplied by the Gas cartels to all Labor MP's. Labor receives large donations from these Gas companies to stop the tax. #TaxTheGas #LaborLNPCoalition

This isn’t monetary policy. It’s a transfer of workers wages to the wealthy. I am a board member of the John Curtin Research Centre, and delighted to see Lachlan Kerwood-McCall appointed as our new in-house economist. His op-ed is exactly why. Lachlan’s piece details something that rarely gets said plainly: the RBA’s rate hikes don’t punish the people who drove inflation. They punish the people who had nothing to do with it. Australia’s inflation was largely driven by corporate margin expansion, firms using cost pressures as cover to grow profits and global supply shocks from energy markets. Workers didn’t cause either. Neither did mortgage holders. Yet the policy response works like this: rates rise, mortgage repayments rise, and that money flows directly from workers’ wages into the hands of the global capital markets that fund home loans. Investors who had no role in causing the inflation, and no stake in fixing it, are now being handsomely compensated through it. Sounds fair? Wonder why One Nation is on the rise?? The people who drove inflation, corporations expanding margins, face no equivalent discipline. The people paying the price are the ones who simply had the misfortune of needing somewhere to live. Lachlan’s alternative, CGT reform to curb speculative demand, a windfall profits tax on those extracting rents from inflationary conditions, and serious investment in productive capacity, actually targets the source. That’s the kind of structurally honest economics the JCRC exists to advance. Welcome aboard, Lachlan.

The Australian government will force you to stop driving your car to save fuel soon, instead of stopping the open cut coal mining industry from burning through 380-390 million litres of diesel a month.
