@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social Responding to the endorsement of the United Independent Coalition by Reform UK leader Nigel Farage, leader Allegra Spender has said she does not echo his sentiments, was unaware of the endorsement and would distance themselves from the endorsement.

@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social Germany has denounced the International Court of Justice, calling the principal judicial organ of the United Nations (UN) “rigged.” When pressed by a Cheek journalist, Germany denied critiquing the UN. Perhaps it should recall why the UN was created.

@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social When questioned about his controversial conservatism by a Cheek Media journalist, Judge Da Cruz superfluously claimed “when you become a judge, you can judge,” and called allegations of bias “cap.”

@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social Both progressive and conservative judges in the International Court of Justice, notably Justices Conway and Da Cruz, are initially hesitant to explicitly provide their ruling. How can justice be upheld if the public cannot access it?

@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social Cheek Media is proud to platform an opinion piece on the creation of the United Independent Coalition. This merger reveals a greater issue within Australian politics: an inability to do what we pay them for - actually represent the people. (1/2)

@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social In the Leaders' Debate, Opposition Leader Sussan Ley confirms Scott Morrison will be Australia's Ambassador to the US under a Liberal government - another notch on Morrison's belt, following the long string of ministries he accrued as Prime Minister.

@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social Government leaks reveal that Bougainville is infuriated by Australian inaction and will not attend the 2028 Pacific Island Forum. Although we call ourselves a leader in the Asia-Pacific region, our inaction regarding Bougainville's sovereignty is concerning.

@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social Labor has released an official statement, headed by Deputy Minister Tony Burke, on the Liberal Mediscare campaign.

@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social Speaker of the House Milton Dick has lashed out in a Labor caucus meeting at Education Minister Jason Clare for insulting beer. Parliament seems to have a problem with alcohol; insiders say that Labor has a problem with Dick.

@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social Mediscare Returns: Labour has alleged that Shadow Minister Angus Taylor has instructed his Liberal caucus to launch a scare campaign to discredit Labour for their investments into Medicare, dental checkups for low-income earners and open bulk-billing clinics.

@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social Racism-Off?: Hanson and the Liberals shoot snipes at each other, unable to decide who is the most bigoted. Commenting on the creation of the United Independent Coalition, Shadow Minister Angus Taylor called it “filled with racists like Pauline Hanson.” (1/5)

@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social Angus Taylor's proposed bill, "Ensuring a cash society bill 2027," merely lists "to businesses still accept cash," as the aim. This incoherent jargon reflects the fact that the expanded investment in education by Minister Jason Clare has been very much needed.

@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social Deputy Minister Tony Burke has attempted to maneuver Cheek Media into posting "propaganda" for the Labor Party. This blatant attempt to intimidate and manipulate independent media should be condemned by any government that genuinely respects press freedoms.

@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social Opposition Leader, Sussan Ley, brings in uranium, calling to end the nuclear moratorium. A contentious policy, one that many pundits believe was key to the Liberals' loss, Ms Ley has put lives in danger today; uranium exposure can cause bone, lung, and liver damage.

@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social The Liberals have put forward Freya Leach as a candidate in the upcoming elections, who recently had her Sky News show taken off air after inviting an Islamaphobic guest, who was interviewed wearing strips of bacon. The 'dedication' to multiculturalism is astounding.

@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social Campaign materials for the next Labor elections have been leaked. Nice on the eyes, but it must be questioned where our ministers' energies are going.

@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social An anonymous senator has revealed to Cheek Media that Chinese troops are attempting a takeover of a Bougainvillean island, which Labor is willing to stand by and let happen. The 2028 Pacific Island Forum now seems to be a desperate cover up of this egregious inaction.

Cheek Media Co (DOWNMUNDER) @cheekmediaco.bsky.social · 26/10/2025
@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social Speaker of the House Milton Dick is clearly committed to soft power. Australians should be concerned about the lengths this man will go to.

@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social After Bougainville's independence, Australia has presented itself as eager to develop its presence in the Asia-Pacific, successfully winning their bid to host the 2028 Pacific Islands Forum—an excellent move to continue supporting our neighbours.

@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social Guyana's foreboding warning reflects the critical environmental and humanitarian concerns of some members of this committee. However, it must be questioned whether the P5 are ready to commit to this, considering their colonial history of carving up sovereignty.

@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social The Security Council has begun its discussion of lunar resources. As delegates repeat sentiments of co-operation, the United States’ inflammatory claim that “the moon is [theirs]” loom over the committee. Will the UN allow the US to skirt international law once again?

@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social Foreign Affairs Minister Penny Wong unveils new plans to build a Mar-A-Lago to appease US President Donald Trump. His recent statements calling her "gross" and rallying to "leave Australia in the dust bin of history." Wong always seems to be wrong.

@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social Penny Wong has chosen to respond to reports that the US is threatening to pull out of AUKUS by promising further investment into the treaty. This backwards logic is sure to dig Australia’s grave deeper.

Cheek Media Co (DOWNMUNDER) @cheekmediaco.bsky.social · 25/10/2025
@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social The most recent AUKUS summit has reflected cold US sentiment towards the security deal. After years of the Australian people telling their government to pull out of the militaristic treaty, it has finally come to bite this Labor government in the back.

@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social The global South is fighting back against Trump's America with a level of vigour expected from Australia. When will our officials stand up against the rise of fascism in our ally - or will Australia succumb to the wave instead?

Cheek Media Co (DOWNMUNDER) @cheekmediaco.bsky.social · 25/10/2025
@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social In a statement to Cheek Media, Home Affairs Minister Tony Burke has confessed to spending half a million of taxpayer money on building an escape room in his office. When over half of Australians are concerned about affording food, is this really where our money goes?

@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social Labor has traded one war criminal for another: Israeli President Isaac Herzog will be visiting instead. The leader claimed the "entire [Palestinian] nation" was responsible for October 7, and was photographed signing artillery shells destined for Gaza.

@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is visiting Australia; under its Rome Statute obligations, he must be arrested upon arrival. Labor again has revealed its true colours by inviting the leader of a genocide onto our land - settler-colonialism continues.

@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social The Migration (Visa Cap) Amendment Bill proposed by Senator Andrew Hastie has failed. The bill would have cut temporary visas by 25%; its failure shows that perhaps the anti-immigration tide in Australia is turning, for the better.

@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social The delegate for the United States has declared that lunar sovereignty belongs to America, saying "the Moon is ours," a statement that was deceptively and purposefully ignored by Fox News in its reporting. Will Australia support this claim?

Cheek Media Co (DOWNMUNDER) @cheekmediaco.bsky.social · 25/10/2025
@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social Education Minister Jason Clare's cheeky call out of Sussan Ley is an echoing reminder of the poor Liberal policy-making dealing with climate change. The jibe also reflects the laidback demeanour of Labor that often gets in the way of real action; less play, more work!

Cheek Media Co (DOWNMUNDER) @cheekmediaco.bsky.social · 25/10/2025
@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social In committee, Leader of the Opposition Sussan Ley denounces Labor for “throwing away money” on the current bushfire season. Acting Prime Minister Jim Chalmers shakes his head in disagreement. If Ley doesn’t believe this is a worthy cause to spend on, what is?

@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social Tensions in the International Court of Justice are rising, as Judge Da Cruz slammed Judge Conway's dissenting arguments. He also questioned her knowledge of courts, to which Conway was unable to respond. The Court is full of everything except professionalism.

@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social Minister for Home Affairs Tony Burke has lashed out at a Cheek Media journalist, telling them to “do their research” as the journalist inquired about the budget of the Immediate Bushfire Bill. It seems that American hostility towards free speech has caught on in Aus.

@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social Dissenting judgment in the International Court of Justice has proclaimed that “the right to safety is not interrelated with the right to a healthy environment,” an uninformed statement that fails to consider the humanitarian ramifications of climate change.

@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social An Agence France-Presse journalist has been arrested by the IPG police for false reporting on the outbreak of war between China and the US, a reflection of Western mainstream media’s itch for war.

@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social Sussan Ley’s accusation to the Labor caucus of lacking fiscal discipline has a taxpayer-shaped hole in it; that is who funded her trips to the Gold Coast.

@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social Albanese is missing, last seen in Trump Tower and Kevin Rudd has been ejected from the United States by Donald Trump. It seems that all efforts to cozy up to fascist America have failed, but Labor doesn’t seem ready to let go yet.

@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social A leaked text of dubious origins by Minister Katy Gallagher stating "Let's downplay burnt koalas - optics better than accuracy," has been denied by Labor. 8000 koalas died in 2019; what does Labor plan on doing for the worst bushfire season Australia has ever faced?

@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social Former minister and attorney-general Mark Dreyfus has resigned from parliament, resulting in a byelection in the Melbourne seat of Isaacs. Liberals seem likely to put forward Keith Wolahan as their candidate, potentially running on pro-Israel sentiment.

@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social AusPoll has revealed that Labor would win the seat of Longman if an election took place today. This comes after a continued commitment to calling for Israel to follow international law.

@ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social Somalia has revealed the USA has killed 60 Somalians since 2020, and that Mogadishu has been threatened to be nuked twice. This comes after threats from China to Somali domestic security as well. In these shifting global dynamics, who can Somalia call a friend?

Guyana's call for humanity when utilising weaponry strikes close to the heart when considering the attacks on boats in Venezuelan waters by the US using human-operated kinetic strikes. Can the Security Council do anything about this—and if so, will Trump listen? @ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social

The delegate from the United Kingdom has called for strict regulations on autonomous weapons systems (AWS). Considering the nation's bloody, colonial history, what role the UK has in the future of this debate must be reflected upon. @ipgchairdownmunder.bsky.social
