Are Australian voters going to side with major ideological parties with a strong, persistent record of damaging this country and repeatedly betraying voters .. Or will voters grasp this opportunity to vote local, independent community representation accountable to communities and provide solutions

A culture change needs to happen. Treating women as less and male insecurity is at the heart of this violence.

Vance tried to come for Angie Nixon telling her to go back where she came from. Does he remember that his wife is the daughter of Indian immigrants from Andhra Pradesh, India? Can’t escape that fact couch boy! #Pinks

It’s not antisemitic to be anti genocide. Tired of the constant emotional manipulation supported by the media and politicians. Israel attempting to annex West Bank and Gaza are no different than Russia trying to annex Ukraine. Innocents are being slaughtered for land grabs.

Adani owes Queenslanders millions in royalties from the Carmichael coalmine. Premier David Crisafulli let them off the hook in Aug 2025 by abandoning the court case initiated in 2023. Adani donated thousands to the LNP prior to the Qld election. #qldpol thepoint.com.au/opinions/260...

What did Adani get for the money it gave to the Queensland Liberal National Party?
If only we knew then what we know now. In August 2025, Queensland’s LNP Government announced it was abandoning a court case against Adani over unpaid coal royalties, a case that started in 2023 under ...

Same with coal mines. People who complain about solar panels and wind turbines for cost and end of life should go visit an old open cut coal mines. They are never truly rehabilitated(if at all) and leave big toxic scars on the earth.

This isn’t a routine extension. It’s the largest coal mine expansion proposed in NSW. Approving 429 million tonnes of coal well into the 2040s is completely incompatible with climate action. If Labor has any shred of climate integrity left, it must reject this project.

Albanese can find $425bn for defence – but not $126bn for free childcare
Defence spending is outpacing inflation as the government says it can’t afford universal childcare, dental or lifting JobSeeker above the poverty line.

Latest energy figures are out for 2024-25 - once again 83% of Australia's gas is exported or used to convert gas to PNG exports. There is no gas shortage. We do not need more gas. We need to #TAXtheGAS
Charts showing in 2024-25 4,862PJ of gas was exported or used in LNG plants, while only 1,016PJ was use by the domestic economy of mining, manufacturing, residential and gas power plants.

This is why fuel prices are pushing $3 a litre. Because Trump has no idea how to end the war he (and Netanyahu) started with Iran. That’s the war that Labor, the Coalition and One Nation all cheered on in February. It’s the war the Greens opposed. The only party that did.
