@Kurt56289658 @PeterOB24979769 For years Aussies have voted in idiotic conservative govts that cruelled our uptake of renewables...we are now paying the price!

@PeterOB24979769 Aussies FREELY voted in politicians, who suppress oil and energy mining and then whine that their energy is crushing them.

How come we go to Singapore, an island 50k by 20k, and beg for their assistance to keep an entire continent running? It’s because Singapore has had stable conservative government since WW2. We have had multiple left wing governments that have dismantled our economy and society.

Victorian Liberals day since last chaos clock resets to zero for about the fifth day in a row. #springst

@Batman2242 Remote WA communities are increasingly powered by renewable energy through Horizon Power. They have reduced diesel reliance by over 90%. Major examples include Onslow (solar/battery microgrid), Cockatoo Springs, Blackstone (Papulankutja), and Exmouth with dozens more planned.

To the butt dumb EV people Go to rural, any state, and try charging your EV , they use a diesel generator. Without diesel you can’t charge

@MAGACult2 You need regime change in the USA. It is gobsmacking that one man can do so much damage around the globe

If you are human and not from the U.S.A. what would you like to say to us right now?

@Warwick_Long That's hilarious...he's about as useful as an ashtray on a motor bike.

3AW just said Brett Hosking is announcing he is standing for the Nationals next election (we’ve asked about that in the past) I can see he is booked in for an ABC interview tomorrow And then the Premier shares this pic… Does it feel like an election year yet?

@OneNationVic Was he trying to check in with a probation officer?

Darren Hercus, One Nation candidate for Nepean, visited the Dromana Police Station this week — he knocked, there was no one there. This is the reality local communities are facing all over Victoria. We have police shortages in the middle of a crime epidemic, leaving stations unattended, and communities exposed. One Nation will restore law and order, and the first step will be to increase funding to recruit and retain more police personnel.

A brilliant piece from Simon Tisdall, Foreign Affairs reporter with The Guardian. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Wouldn't it be sensible if state governments could make public transport free until the oil supply blockade through Hormuz was resolved?

@mumbletwits I could probably agree with some of that

“These things can both be true” tweets are the rage atm. Here's my version! The execrable Netanyahu is largely responsible for the huge uptick in antisemitism in last 2.5 years. Ppl have agency, responsible for own actions: antisemites are very bad ppl deserving of condemnation.

@JNampijinpa Fuckwits like you have emboldened Trump, that's what has happened. We just get to live with the consequences of your stupidity and MAGA arse-licking

Anthony Albanese once claimed rising petrol prices were a national outrage. Diesel is now over $3 a litre in parts of the NT, up 50% - or $1 a litre - since Labor has been in power. What changed? What are you paying for fuel where you live? Post your local fuel prices in the comments — share a photo if you can.

@MRobertsQLD A man with no clue🤦‍♂️

Without fuel ⛽ the country stops. The WHOLE nation stops!

@kevinbonham Clearly a slow learner

@newscomauHQ Jewish leader...pig's arse

Jewish Australians have seen “the single sharpest decline in physical security of any community in the world”, a leading figure says. Full story: bit.ly/4rRxKAf

@dubzyxbt You need to shop around a bit more you knucklehead🤣 Craft beer drinker?

In Australia petrol is $3 ($0.80 is tax) Cigarettes are $50 a pack ($35 of that is tax) A carton of beer is $73 ($28 is tax) Income tax is 47% The tax collected is used to bring in more immigrants

@SenatorCash You are not a credible person Senator Cash

The Australian Human Rights Commission just released its new Strategic Plan and it reads like a political manifesto. This taxpayer-funded body declares that colonisers committed 'genocidal acts,' and that Indigenous sovereignty co-exists alongside Australian sovereignty. These are not established legal facts. No court has determined them. The Australian Parliament has not legislated them. A body entrusted with shaping the national conversation on human rights must approach its work with impartiality: not be ideologically pre-committed before that work even begins. I will be demanding answers at senate estimates.

@mawworn @noplaceforsheep Sadly, there are so many people who hanker for the memories of the 1950's

@noplaceforsheep This isn't being done to us, it's being done by us. Simple things; $0.50 public transport. Free school lunches. Energy & Rental reforms. Things people could see, touch, use every day. Then Queensland voted him out for Crisafulli. Who ran on the exact opposite. Grinds my gears.

You’ve smeared Australians as anti semites who must be punished with speech control. You’re a fanatic, & the enemy of ordinary people. Globalise the resistance. From every stream to every ocean.

@Qldaah Wasn't it Angus Taylor that made this decision?minister.industry.gov.au/ministers/tayl…

There were 6 Australian fuel refineries when the Coalition came to government & 2 when it departed. These 2 are government supported. 90% of fuel comes from refineries in Singapore, South Korea & Japan. Reserve laws were strengthened in 2023. #auspol theguardian.com/business/2026/…

@TLease194784 @RodgerShanahan I'm not sure anybody will value that

@RodgerShanahan Idk about that but if I was one of those Aussie sailors I’d be cheering about getting a US combat action ribbon

The issue of RAN personnel on the US submarine that sank the #Iranian ship is a big issue. Third Country Deployments (TCD) normally require ministerial sign-off. So did the MINDEF/DPM permit ADF pers to help kill dozens of sailors from a country with which we are not at war ?

@Anton___Illich @janinegebert Turn?

@janinegebert I cant watch that show without loudly yelling at the television. Mainly two words...one of them is "OFF!"

Oh for fucks sake. Can we bring back the Drum and get rid of the dribble on Afternoon Briefing.
