Woke Patricia Karvelas calls Aboriginal man Warren Mundine a liar.
She wants him to shut up and do what she says is good for him. This is what modern racism looks like.

@elonmusk @scotte0507 There are no women at that 'prayer session'. More woke hypocrisy.

@JNampijinpa @Kazz5b I don't know what they are thinking selling defence land in key locations 🤦♂️
English

This nation-wide fire sale of Defence properties, sites and land exposes, yet again, the Albanese Government’s unwillingness to commit the much-needed additional funding our Defence Force requires.
We are living in an age of resurgent autocrats and authoritarian regimes. Australia faces the most dangerous strategic environment in generations.
Our Defence Force must be equipped with modern weapons and munitions to deter — and, if necessary, defend. That also means injecting more funding to harden, expand and multiply Defence bases around the country, especially in our nation’s north. We have seen how difficult and costly it is to regain strategic assets once they are no longer owned — just look at Darwin Port.
Selling Defence land is not reform in itself. Once land is sold, rebuilding a Defence presence later becomes far harder and more expensive. Every divestment must pass a hard national security test and must strengthen, not weaken, Australia’s long-term defence capability.

@SenatorWong @DrSJaishankar On behalf of Penny Wong I wish everyone a very happy Australia day, since it appears she somehow forgot.

Australia’s partnership with India has never been stronger.
Wishing my friend @DrSJaishankar and the people of India a very happy Republic Day.
As India marks this day – and Australia observes our own national day – we honour our shared values and deepening ties.

Tomorrow is Australia Day and I often wonder what Australia would be if the British did not come and form a delicate settlement on the other side of the world, here on the great southern land.
Would the land have been simply left un-colonised? Would it have remained an untamed wilderness? Without modern buildings, hospitals, places of worship, schools and skyscrapers. Without the iconic Sydney Harbour Bridge, MCG in Melbourne, Dreamworld on the Gold Coast, Perth Bell Tower, 2KW building in Adelaide, IXL buildings in Hobart, no Mindil Beach Sunset Markets in Darwin, and certainly no Parliament House in Canberra, old or new.
Would she have stood defiantly bridging the Pacific and Indian oceans. Withstood sail giving way to steam, and steam to diesel? As the world encroached, hungry for land and riches?
Would the various Indigenous tribes have moved past their storied and earthy culture and into the modern era?
Would they have stood against the tide of progress?
It is hard to imagine.
Whilst colonisation was not without its regrettable actions, and modern Australia not without its failings, the world and the forces that drive us tend toward order. Some nation, some Empire somewhere would indeed have claimed this land.
I am glad it was the Europeans, and specifically the British.
I do not dismiss the criticisms of some of the methods of the day. That was an era where people treated each other very differently and in most of the world. People were executed for things like petty theft. Ideas that today would have us recoil in shock.
It is not just to hold modern people responsible for the standards of the past. It is important that we do indeed remember those darker moments and ideas to ensure we don’t go backwards as a people.
We remember ANZAC day, not to glorify war, but to remind the next generation of its cost.
People in power often make mistakes, and they are rarely held accountable. Even to this day they are too often beyond accountability. But those of us that do not hold the reigns of power suffer the punishment for their actions.
Australia, for all its flaws and failings, has been a spectacular success. Drawn out from the red dirt, by the sheer will of a strong and resilient people. It was not the Governor who tamed the land and built the buildings.
Similarly, it is not the Prime Minister that digs the ore, mills the steel, shears the sheep and builds the homes that have built our modern Australia.
On Australia Day, we do not celebrate the deeds and misdeeds of the few in leadership, but the works of our fellow Australian; be they Indigenous, British settlers, European immigrants and those from other parts of the world that have chosen Australia as their nation.
We celebrate each other, and our contributions, and we celebrate our vast and untapped potential, here on this great southern land.
We celebrate home.
The seeds of our modern Australia were sown on the 26th of January 1788.
So, we celebrate together on that day. I remember a time when that celebration was all but universal. It must be again.
Long may we have cause to love our home.
I just want Australia back.

@FranMooMoo There is evidence that smallpox came from Asia, across the Torres Strait, and down the East coast of Australia. It was a coincidence it arrived soon after the first fleet.
He even admits that no one in the fleet had smallpox. But he won't let the truth get in the way of hate.

This is the left-wing activism on the ABC that your tax dollars are paying for. Don't know about you, but I'll be firing up the BBQ on Australia Day and celebrating this great nation we all live in, without a worry in the world about what "some experts" say happened hundreds of years ago involving nobody who is alive today. Happy Australia Day 🇦🇺 ♥️

Defund the ABC.

@Mon4Kooyong This is the 5th consecutive cool and wet summer in Sydney.
I think you have been setting up extra weather stations out in the desert.

We've just lived through the three hottest years ever recorded. The climate emergency has arrived. It’s coming for everything we hold dear.
While communities across Australia simultaneously battle dangerous heat causing emergency room presentations to spike, deadly fires threatening to wipe out entire species, and floods inundating homes and farms, the Albanese government is still approving new coal and gas projects.
This year, I'm committed to cutting climate pollution and saving Australian lives. It's time the government acted with the same degree of urgency. Because the sooner we act, the safer we will all be from the devastating impacts of climate change.

This deplorable scumbag has authorised the slaughter of peaceful protesters who want basic human rights incl free speech.
