Keep digging that hole, bernardi. After legal threats he quickly deleted his video of him harassing and intimidating and humiliating a girl to say an offensive slogan against his own leader. Your wife and sons must be so proud of him.

This is incredibly important. Huge credit to @SharazDavid and @GetUp! for taking on an issue that affects every Australian. We should all support a free press. We should also support accountability. Right now, there is far too little accountability for inaccurate, misleading and unethical journalism. That needs to change urgently. If you care about fairness, transparency and better journalism, please sign and share.
Huge news! 38,000 people have signed our petition to reform @AusPressCouncil. You can find the campaign at presscouncil.com.au (which it has sent a legal letter over) or at the new website…. notthepresscouncil.com.au

@SenatorHume In my experience, the rising cost of living has made the financial outlook of people on fixed incomes, highly precarious, going forward. It's time to put #PeopleOverProfit."

First Nations people living in remote housing who brought forward complaints about problems like unstable electricity and a lack of air conditioning are now entitled to compensation. This is a huge win for mob living on Country.

Hope you're talking about how to rule out new oil and gas. Not only remove subsidies, but charge polluters for their toxic gases Guarantee loans and returns on renewables Planning reforms for no new gas nationwide, electric is better in every way anyway #LaborConf23 @tanya_plibersek @AustralianLabor @Bowenchris #auspol #Auspol2023

I hope they're listening at #LaborConf23 today - we need to stop fossil fuels and take positive steps against climate damage.
Australia's chief scientist Cathy Foley says carbon reduction must increase by eight times to curb climate change. I wonder whether Government is listening to this? They are listening to the gas and coal lobby with increased production of fossil fuels. abc.net.au/news/2023-08-15/c…
