Speers - ‘The Fair Work Commission is independent.’Except that it has been cynically stacked disproportionately with business interests by the LNP. #insiders

@buitengebieden Well they’re only human 😉

Randa Abdel-Fattah has been awarded the 2026 Jerusalem Peace Prize – recognising her advocacy for Palestinian rights amid mounting pressure and attempts to silence dissent, Stuart Rees writes. #auspol #FreeSpeech #Palestine #HumanRights johnmenadue.com/post/2026/03/r…

Let me explain what just happened 👇 5 minutes before the President announced a halt to attacks on Iran… someone placed a $1.5 BILLION bet on stocks going up and dumped $192 million in oil. 5 minutes… These trades were 4 to 6 times larger than anything else in the entire market. Whoever did this wasn’t guessing. You don’t risk $1.5 billion on a hunch. There was zero public indication this announcement was coming. No leaks. No press. Nothing. The only people who knew were in the room when the decision was made. Someone in that room picked up a phone. And within minutes they made more money than most Americans will earn in a thousand lifetimes. In a single trade. On a war that cost you $4+ a gallon gas and $16 billion in tax dollars. American citizens funded this war. Politicians are profiting from it. This is not the first time. Every major announcement from this administration has had massive suspicious trades right before it dropped. Tariff reversals. Policy shifts. War decisions. This is the most blatant insider trading operation in the history of American politics. It’s not even close. And it’s happening over and over in broad daylight. You would go to federal prison for trading on a tip from your cousin. These people are front running war decisions with billion dollar bets and nobody will ever ask a single question. Nobody will be investigated. Nobody will be charged. By tomorrow this will be buried under the next satisfying headline. Just like last time. And the time before that. The game is rigged. And they’re not even trying to hide it anymore…

Israel’s history of assassinations to gets its way on everything, denying justice for the Palestinian people.

Today I$rael tried to kill me in a targeted airstrike in southern Lebanon as I was reporting on was the targeting of bridges and the forced displacement of 1 million people, an ethnic cleansing operation on a larger scale than the Nakba I have absolutely no doubt that this was deliberate. Despite claims there were no warnings ahead of the strike and no notifications sent to the Lebanese Army who allowed us to film As we have seen in Gaza they want to silence journalists who document and report their war crimes It is the western powers who provide political and military support for I$rael, arming it to the teeth to carry out genocide in Gaza and ethnic cleansing here in Lebanon. They are not simply complicit, but active participants and should be held accountable for their actions. But if I$rael thinks today’s strike will silence us and keep us out of the field they are very, very mistaken

War of choice waged by Israel & US on #Iran is spiraling out of control. The world economy has been upended, threatening impoverishment & hunger for many as higher energy costs flow through. Many lives are being lost. Lebanon too is suffering. Stop it now! theguardian.com/world/2026/mar…

Albo says he’s looking at every practical option to ease pressure on the public, Here’s a couple of options: Deal with the cause not the symptoms. Stop appeasing Trump and Netanyahu tell them to cease their illegal war. Build independence, cancel the AUKUS madness. Put Aus first

French journalist Marine Vlahovic is found dead in her home in Marseille while working on a documentary exposing the israeli genocide of #Gaza

From Gaza to Iran, the pattern is the same: precision weapons, chosen blindness, and dead children. The cost of failing to regulate AI warfare is already too high. ** My thoughts @guardian theguardian.com/us-news/ng-int…

🚨LEAK🚨 Israel’s foreign minister lets slip that Australia’s crackdown on free speech is not about ‘antisemitism’, but is about preventing criticism of Israel. “I want to praise the change in legislation in Queensland designating some anti-Israeli slogans as criminal.” Sa’ar urged on the Zionists Federation of Australia: “I think it is crucially important and to the extent that you can influence other districts or states in Australia to do the same, that would be blessed.” michaelwest.com.au/israel-ministe…

Corporatised universities are engaging in repressive censorship to protect their brand, undermining democracy in Australia. johnmenadue.com/post/2026/03/t…

@KenRoth When a university—a place specifically designed for the friction of competing ideas—refuses to host a UN-mandated investigator because her views on the Gaza conflict are "challenging," it ceases to be a marketplace of ideas and becomes a gated community of consensus.

BREAKING: We just checked the Epstein files and Trump is still in there hundreds of thousands of times, there war with Iran hasn’t erased reality.

The statement on the 🇺🇸 & 🇮🇱 attacks on Iran by #NZ Govt is a disgrace. The Govt knows full well that international law has been breached even though negotiations were under way. It knows that 🇺🇸 walked away from the last nuclear agreement with Iran. Why the servility?

Albanese’s backing of Israeli and US attacks on Iran shows that we are completely devoid of acting independently from Trump and Netanyahu. There was a time when Labor pursued peace not war. That time is long gone. Leadership needed not sycophantic capitulation to militarism.

Imagine the outrage if a Federal MP asked "Show me a good Jew!" Yet Pauline Hanson can rptedly vilify the Australian Muslim community by asking "Show me a good Muslim!" Shouldn't she be charged under the new hatespeech laws?! #auspol #Islamophobia
