FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Conservative = conservation 🥴 Jane Hume mustn’t have any connection between her mouth and her ears. Her comprehension and critical thinking is almost non-existent. #auspol #insiders 010
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 25/09/2026I’m not sure that Andrew Bragg with his super as collateral brainfart could be any more contradictory #auspol 001
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 25/08/2026Splitting Court of Appeal in two and politicising the appointment of judges is really only playing around the edges, regardless of the 'merits' of the idea. Small target politics is well and truly alive within the Vic Libs. Jury is out on whether it aligns with the electorate. #auspol #vicpol 001
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 09/08/2026Does Samantha Maiden realise she's on national tv and not at an Oasis concert. You'd probably get better insights at an Oasis concert to be fair. #insiders #auspol 010
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 02/08/2026Jane Hume on Insiders: - Albanese should be more curious about the Victorian ALP - the Reformers scandal is a NSW Liberal Party issue; it's nothing for the Federal Liberal party to be curious about Astounding that she has been a Senator for 10 years. #auspol #insiders 061
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 14/07/2026So, the care economy has 'exploded' and a heavily unionised workforce receiving 'hefty' pay increases deserve them, but only if the economy is 'strong' 🙄 Does Taylor realise that 'smaller government' and trickle down economics has been rejected, particularly by those on min. wage #auspol 030
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 28/06/2026Coorey standing up and fighting for those poor,oppressed self-managed super funds and investors in general. Colour me shocked. And how dare a party elected with a thumping majority have the gumption to do a deal in the Senate to pass legislation and get on with things. #auspol #insiders 081
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 19/06/2026I usually avoid Patricia Karvelas. Having now listened to her on the most recent Politics Now podcast, dealing with ON and Labor's approach to them, I'll continue to avoid her. #auspol 141
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 18/06/2026Hanson's appearance at the NFP yesterday should,if nothing else, be notable for one thing: she lacks any of the charisma or magnetism of Trump. With compulsory voting in Australia, cracks and fissures within her own party and policies will be glwringly obvious and ultimately damaging. #auspol 020
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 15/06/2026Catching up on yesterday's news, including Insiders. How Jennifer Hewett can state that the current conflict in the Middle East is not a white hot issue in America while keeping a straight face is either brilliant acting, or vacuous stupidity. Either way, it's entirely unbelievable. #auspol 020
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 15/05/2026Donald Trump did his best Angus Taylor impersonation in last night's budget reply speech. Or was it Angus doing his best Trump impersonation? Well done, Angus. #auspol #budget 020
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 12/05/2026"The thing is, voters like government services. They consistently vote for them; they consistently hate privatisations. Maybe the government could think about that fact, rather than worry about what media organisations that hate government spending think." Well said @grogsgamut.bsky.social 010
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 11/05/2026Hume and the Coalition aren't prepared to entertain hypotheticals, which may explain why they're determined and committed but haven't released any detailed policies. "You will see a genuinely different Coalition" The same Senator who said policies weren't the role of the Opposition. #auspol #730 020
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 10/05/2026On Insider this morning, it's not hard to tell who the moderate Liberal disappointed in the fall of her preferred party is, who the sensible, national broadcast journalist is, and who the partisan hack handcuffed to the views and vested interests of his employer is. #auspol #insiders 0116
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 28/03/2026Greg Sheridan and Phil Coorey on Insiders - about as much balance as an elephant and a mouse on a see-saw #Insiders #auspol 182
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 21/03/2026Labor SA complaining about GST allocations to WA is as rich as it gets. Koutsantonis should savour the election victory and the near-extinction of the Liberal Party in SA, not seek to employ the politics of envy and create convenient excuses which he may seek to deploy in future. #auspol 000
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 15/02/2026"If you tax something there is less of it" The brain tax is real. Unfortunately for Jane Hume, she didn't have much to start with. #auspol 010
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 13/02/2026There are train wrecks, such as the Lib spill, and there are train wrecks like Abbott's interview on 7.30. Wow. Just wow. #auspol 010
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 12/02/2026Presumably Angus has the numbers. Well done, Angus. The only thing more damaging for the Libs now than Taylor being made leader would be for the spill to fail and Ley to retain her leadership. Either way, the degeneracy and distraction continues. #auspol 030
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 24/01/2026Samantha Maiden back in her safe space - a gossip columnist and rumour-mongerer who's incapable of exercising nuanced, independent or logical thought. #auspol #insiders 030
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 15/01/2026Ley upon assuming the leadership said that she and her party would listen to the Australian people. Despite this, she continues to use antisemitism as a political football, guided by her own misguided political instincts that continue to ring like a hollow bell in her tin ear. #auspol 040
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 15/12/2025"These are valid questions, and the NSW govt will obviously make its statements in due course. But because today is the day when people are in hospital beds and their families are by their sides, it's not a discussion that I will engage in." ... only discussion critiquing the Fed Gvt then Sussan? 000
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 01/10/2025The People vs Robodebt - shocking. Almost as shocking as the program's decision to represent Rachelle Miller, a political operative and central to the government's role in the scandal, as a victim. #auspol 2102
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 07/09/2025Gee Sussan sounds as though she's struggling to even convince herself about many of her own answers. Understandable given the division and lack of discipline in her own party, as well as her just lacking any real insight or talent #auspol 130
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 24/08/2025Phil Coorey has clearly read his Coalition talking points prior to Insiders this morning #auspol 010
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 15/07/2025Angus Taylor is like a child's toy. You pull the string a few times and it's readily apparent that there's onlu a small, underwhelming number of predetermined responses. #auspol #730 1103
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 13/05/2025So in 2018 the Libs could've had their first female leader in Julie Bishop. Fast forward 7 years and it's the Minister for Misappropriations who becomes the first female Liberal leader, beating out the Treasurer that never was. #auspol 020
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 03/05/2025Colour me shocked. Jane Hume was an author of the LNP's review of their previous train wreck 🤣 #auspol 030
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 03/05/2025Annabelle Crabb left the tie at home and chose the hot water bottle instead #auspol 110
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 27/04/2025Channel 7's debate coverage is cringeworthy. Plenty of gimmicks being employed in order to stretch time and 'hook' viewers. #auspol 040
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 29/03/2025Does Phil Coorey speak to anyone outside the Coalition? #auspol 021
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 25/03/2025Labor needs to continue to play offense. Taylor declining Chalmers' invitation to debate him reflects a clear weakness in the Opposition and should be exploited by Labor. Similarly, other strong performers like Clare and Gallagher should be spoiling for a fight with their shadow counterparts. 000
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 08/03/2025Clear pattern emerging in the WA election: large swing against Labor, however mostly to minor parties. Suspect we'll see similar in the upcoming Federal election. #auspol #wavotes 1131
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 01/03/2025I guess the only reason Speers can't jam Michael Stutchbury and Jennifer Hewett together on Insiders is because they both work for the Australian Financial Review. I'm not sure who the bigger cheerleader for the LNP is. #auspol #insiders 182
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 01/03/2025MLB peeps - what are you most looking forward to this season (other than some sun and beers after a loooong winter)? I'll be following the Orioles and Nats (likely on delay down here in Aus or while 'working from home'), while deathriding the Yankees - sorry, not sorry #MLB #orioles #nats 010
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 27/01/2025Disgusting from Channel 9, showing Musk's Nazi salute in a promo 000
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 19/01/2025Last day of the regular season. Aces need a win to stay in playoff contention at minimum and hope for other results to go their way. 3-1 down, bottom 3rd, 2 outs, 1 on 110
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 15/01/2025I understand that the LA fires is a large and tragic event that is unfolding daily, however I question why it's a lead story on 7.30, an Australian news program, particularly given the impending election. 000
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 10/01/2025Favourite home run of 2024? Hard for me to go past Mike Trout against Miami - just the way he swings from down to up, scything through the ball. Ohtani so casual when he connects too. Love it. youtu.be/5fR4AtoNh-k?...youtu.beThese balls were ANNIHILATED! 🤯 The BIGGEST HOME RUNS of the 2024 season!YouTube video by MLB 010
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 05/01/2025If anyone forgot just why the Indian cricket team is disliked, Gambhir certainly gave everyone a quick refresher in his press conference yesterday. #AUSvIND 141
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 05/01/2025Any chance someone like Tori Amos (circa 90s) emerges on the mainstream musical scene again? If not, why not? 120

FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 29/12/2024Did Brad Battin pay for the Herald Sun to be delivered to each and every home in Melbourne / Victoria today, in order to distribute his puff piece editorial? Not a subscriber but a copy turned up on our doorstep and our neighbour's doorstep this morning. #auspol #vicpol #lnp #vicpolitics 120

FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 23/12/2024Cutting the Throat of God was easily my favourite album of 2024, in what was a particularly strong year for releases. Ulcerate's performance at The Espy in August was pretty special too. 100
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 22/12/2024Filthy step from Daniels followed by that! 😍 #washington #commanders #PHIVWSH 000
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 22/12/2024Shout out to Super Roast in Brisbane. Prompt delivery, attentive service and most importantly, some very tasty and well-priced beans. #filtercoffee #coffee #coffeeaus 000
FloPic.\ @flopica.bsky.social · 18/12/2024What happened to live debates between Ministers and Shadow Ministers on news programs? I can't recall the last time 7.30 put a member of the government and a member of the opposition head to head. Instead, frauds like Angus Taylor are permitted to grandstand in the absence of any real rebuttal. 000
