@AlboMP You’re rapt this war is happening so you have something to blame your financial mismanagement on.

Conflict in the Middle East is pushing up prices at home, but our focus is on helping Australians with the cost of living.

@MoiraDeemingMP Can’t be bothered fixing the name of the station but that’s ok, they have “welcome” on the door in ten different languages.

🚨 Restore community safety: open up police stations, fill police shortages and legislate tougher laws! 🚨 #police #crime #victoria #liberal #SpringSt #vicpol #fyp

@lukejcr Motte and Bailey arguments are a sign of weakness in logic.

So ‘Restore Britain’ far right clowns want to scrap public sector translation services. That policy is dangerous NONSENSE. Here are 5 examples why: 1️⃣ Our military would be unable to translate NATO intelligence when it isn’t in English. 2️⃣ A&E doctors would be guessing a tourist’s allergies eg if they were going into anaphylactic shock. 3️⃣ Criminals could walk free because key witnesses, such as visitors who see a major crime, couldn’t have their statements translated. 4️⃣ Intelligence services would be unable to carry out foreign language work. 5️⃣ Border Force would be severely weakened by an inability to conduct in-depth foreign language interviews. Impractical, dangerous discrimination.

@Brian5_8_1899 @realTateBrown “If you let people do what they want, they will break the law so it’s not their fault you haven’t policed them properly”

"If anyone is to blame it is not the people....you have allowed the people to do what they want to do..so when you allow the people to do as they please, this is what you get.” May God, what obnoxious people. These invaders will rationalize anything to absolve themselves of blame.

The BBC put out a piece completely dumbfounded by the sudden rise of double-parking in Birmingham. How can the West survive with all of these double-parkers?

@NoticerNews IQ score of below 70 is considered an intellectual disability

@Waddananggu @MarkHope__1 @AntipodeanDream @kevin_kevj2912 The logical leaps required to believe this could win gold in Olympic gymnastics.

@MarkHope__1 @AntipodeanDream @kevin_kevj2912 Its self inflicted from a English colonial system that was designed for these indigenous people to hate themselves. They then pass that down to their chuldren. Learn about colonisation for a better understanding.

Aboriginals have served at a higher rate per capita than European Australians in every major war, Yet not one Victoria cross has been awarded to an Aboriginal soldier.

@grok @xxxcuntacion @dm_short @amazingmap Thanks pal!

The Orion spacecraft on Artemis II will pass near Melbourne around 9:40 AM AEST on April 11, 2026 (high altitude, ~10,000-20,000 km). Same as Brisbane—visible from eastern Australia/NZ in daytime skies if clear, but no sonic boom or landing. Then atmospheric entry over the Pacific, splashdown off San Diego at 8:07 PM EDT.

@grok @dm_short @amazingmap And near Melbourne?

The Orion spacecraft on Artemis II will pass near Brisbane (high altitude, ~10,000-20,000 km up) around 9:40 AM AEST on April 11, 2026. That's 23:40 UTC on April 10—just before atmospheric entry over the Pacific and splashdown at 8:07 PM EDT (off San Diego). Visible from eastern Australia/NZ during daytime if skies are clear, but no sonic boom or landing here.

@S_GerardRennick -3rd gen minimum - must have 10 years work experience outside of student politics, unions, political staffers, electorate officers etc

Barnaby Joyce has reignited debate over who should be eligible to serve in Parliament, calling for tighter citizenship requirements. Critics, including Penny Wong, argue such proposals risk excluding Australians and undermining a multicultural society. 🇦🇺😬

@grok @steve_eggson @TruthFairy131 @Terri_1987a The bulk of Barrett’s medals are for simply being there and doing the job. There are no standouts for exemplary service. BRS has those for active service, but he also has medals for extreme valour and courage, which many others do not have. That’s the difference.

The medals on AFP Commissioner Krissy Barrett (left) are standard Australian honours for long service, operations, and distinguished policing—not "participation" awards. Here's minimum eligibility for the main ones shown: - **National Medal**: 15 years diligent service in eligible roles (policing/emergency services). - **National Police Service Medal**: 15 years ethical/diligent police service (on/after 14 Feb 1975). - **AFP Service Medal**: 10 years cumulative service in AFP (or AFP + Australian Protective Service). - **Police Overseas Service Medal**: Service on approved international peacekeeping/assistance ops (typically 30+ days, e.g., Solomon Islands 2004). - **AFP Operations Medal**: Specific operational service (e.g., Bali bombings 2005). - **National Emergency Medal/ACT Emergency Medal**: Service in declared national/territory emergencies (e.g., bushfires). - **Australian Police Medal (APM)**: Distinguished service (merit-based for leadership/impact; not time-based). The right-side officer's medals are mostly campaign-specific for military deployments. All are earned via official criteria.

WTF are all these medals worn by the girlie Australian Federal Police Commissioner? Are these DEI issued? A war hero who's been in combat doesn't have as many. 🤔

@Nathan_Porter Same vibe

POV: AFP commissioner Krissy Barrett pulling up with her VCE certificate and community service medals to condem a war hero to life in prison.

@CaroDiRusso @BMAU000 Poor Albo. He thought this was his “We shall fight on the beaches” moment.

Tonight, Albo achieved a rare moment of unintended unity amongst Australians. Because regardless of gender, race or age, we were all asking ‘WTAF was that?’ #auspol #socialcohesion

@Madelaine_Burke Was he drunk?

@GrayConnolly @MoiraDeemingMP @szabosolicitors @MarkoMatvikov He walked right into the trap set for him by Andrews.

@MoiraDeemingMP @szabosolicitors @MarkoMatvikov There was always a very wide path of “I respect X ‘s perspective even when I do not share it” that was always open to John Pesutto to tread… and instead he was his own worst enemy

Pesutto shouldn't have defamed Moira - sadly, he was doing a decent job as leader when this happened. The defamation case should never have gone to trial - both parties are responsible for this. Dinesh should never have been pre-selected given his restaurant was infested by rats - a basic vetting red flag. The Liberals could've presented as a united front with policy to get us out of the mess Labor's put us in. Instead, we're about to reward an incompetent and corrupt government with a likely re-election. Sad state of affairs.

@MarkoMatvikov You mean to say Pesutto, a lawyer, should never have defamed Deeming, surely?

@JacintaAllanMP Lead by example and take the PT too

It won’t solve every problem, but it is an immediate step to help Victorians right now.

@ABigCrocLtd @AlboMP What was his security detail like compared to the one he had at Lakemba?

@AlboMP Hey look! There are women attending as well! Did any of the Greeks call you a 'putrid dog' and chase you down the road?

For generations, the Greek Australian community has helped write the story of modern Australia. And our nation is better for it. As we mark Greek Independence Day this week, we remember their fight for freedom, our shared history and their contribution to our nation.

@NoticerNews Another South Park prediction youtu.be/w4Tbji8ZsN0?si…

A popular Australian tourist destination has started a "Keep the poo out of the pool" awareness campaign urging visitors to use toilets. The lagoon has been shut down nine times since September due to "faecal incidents".
