A massive 7-metre red banner has been put up to block prized views of #Sydney Harbour after nearly 300 trees were illegally cut down. Councils across NSW are cracking down on this destructive practice, labelling it "the worst act of environmental vandalism."#environmentalvandalism #sydneyharbour #illegaldeforestation #nswcouncil #treeprotection #environmenthttps://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2024/sep/14/huge-banner-scuppers-prime-sydney-harbour-view-gained-by-killing-of-300-trees

@thejuicemedia This isn’t just a bad bill; it’s a betrayal of Australian voters. These changes were rushed through Parliament without proper scrutiny, debate, or transparency. The biggest changes to electoral laws in 40 years deserved a multi-party inquiry, not backroom deals. It’s clear: the major parties are more interested in protecting their duopoly than serving the people. This is why we need strong, independent voices in Parliament, voices that aren’t beholden to corporate donors or party machines. #DemocracyForSale #AusPol #Independents

Should Politicians Own Multiple Properties?Imagine a football match where the Liberal Party and Labor Party aren’t just players—they’re also the referees. Would fans stand for that? No. Yet that’s exactly what’s happening in our housing market. Politicians make the rules (and profit from them) while everyday Australians struggle to afford a home. When the “referees” benefit from the game they control, it’s not fair play—it’s a rigged system. Time to demand accountability. Should we ban politicians from owning multiple investment properties? #HousingCrisis #FairPlay #PoliticalReform #vestedinterests https://www.smh.com.au/money/investing/should-politicians-be-banned-from-owning-multiple-properties-20250318-p5lkde.html

Oh look — another totally coincidental share sale from Peter Dutton! This time he offloaded his BHP shares just two days before the mining giant made a major move. But don’t worry, he reckons there’s absolutely nothing to see here.

News Corp owns much of the Liberals' spectacular defeat. The Liberal Party needs to wake up: News Corp is a foreign-owned media empire pushing division, resentment and fear — not good policy. Its alliance with the Liberals serves the Murdochs and shareholders, not Australians. And it pays zero tax here. #auspol #murdochmedia #liberalparty #MurdochRoyalCommissionhttps://www.crikey.com.au/2025/05/05/news-corp-liberal-party-defeat-sky-news-coalition/

@Beltliner403 @dan613 @RealJournalism Yet more billions poured into war machines, while our schools crumble, housing becomes unaffordable, and health services are stretched to breaking point. How long must we keep pretending this is about “defence” and not US geopolitical dominance? Australia is being dragged into another Cold War, and we’ve seen this play before. The Whitlam government was ousted with US backing when it dared to assert independence. When we ignore that history, we repeat it.#nomoremilitarybillions #auspol #MurdochRoyalCommission #pissoffyanks

Treasurer calls out misinformation on super changes. Only around 80k Australians—those with super balances over $3 million—will be affected. That’s a tiny fraction of the population. Most people won’t notice a thing. #auspol #superannuation #taxtherich #vestedInterests https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-06-04/treasurer-accuses-opponents-of-lying-about-super/105377296

Disappointing that the national broadcaster @abcnews can't use accurate language. “Accuses” suggests doubt, when the Treasurer is simply stating facts. Let me help: Treasurer Jim Chalmers rightly points out that opponents of the ‘extremely generous’ super tax changes are spreading lies.#auspol #abcnews #superannuation #greed #supertax #taxtherich

A banned chemical found in fresh berries on supermarket shelves—alarming but crucial to acknowledge. Professor Kirsten Benkendorff from Southern Cross University tested supermarket blueberries and detected a long-banned, highly toxic insecticide (thiometon), confirmed across multiple samples. This raises urgent questions about oversight, supply chain safety, and pesticide regulation.Time to strengthen monitoring, protect public health, and ensure our ‘superfoods’ are truly safe.#pesticides #foodsecurity #publichealth #banthiometon #regulatoryreform #berries #safefood #environmentalhealthhttps://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-09-07/pesticide-review-thiometon-dimethoate-blueberries-raspberries/105701674

@Gargron Once you’ve bought the hardware, it’s yours, not a lease where the vendor still dictates your choices. Calling it sideloading makes it sound like something shady, when it’s just freedom to install what you want.#freesoftware #digitalrights
