@bagucci This won’t either very soon, but it’s a good point. Perhaps I need to be doing more on mastodon

@zbendr I do but don’t really use it

@DrDemography And there it is… thenewdaily.com.au/news/indigenou…

@DrDemography Not surprised in the least by the replies/comments, with a lot of bot-like behaviour throughout from the No posts. I'm expecting anti-Farnham posts to be out in force soon, too.

This is just breathtaking. Cried the whole way, increasing with intensity as each moment came. This is your history, my history, our shared history. History is calling. Please say #Yes23. We need to move forward as a unified nation. Together. #VoiceToParliament ✊

Sorry to miss Alex and Denise live (I’m hosting a conference) but I look forward to listening in later!

Read this story - especially the part about food waste and hunger in Australia - in the context of this week’s record supermarket profits abc.net.au/news/rural/202…

Assuming no further increase in wealth, if you taxed Bezos 20% of his wealth per year he’d still be a billionaire in 2048.

The Teals won over some of the wealthiest and safest Liberal seats, but as the cost of living becomes the most pressing issue for voters, their views on social inequality are being tested. @rachelrwithers joins the show. trib.al/B2g07fT

We can fund science as well as sports, as well as the arts, and not sacrifice social programs to do it. The ‘we can’t afford to do everything’ crowd just don’t want to tax the wealthy.

The current government is: - approving new coal and gas; - cutting taxes for high income earners; - adopting market-based solutions to social and environmental issues; - protecting corporate profits and property prices; - giving tax breaks to investors Centre-left my ass
