Can journalists stop labelling politicians like Hastie, Joyce, Canavan, and Antic as "conservative". They are the opposite: radical right misogynist ideologues following American christo-fascist campaigning to strip women [and anyone else who isn't a straight white man] of their rights. #auspol

A lot of people worked for years to expose the scandal of Robodebt. But the big lie of ‘mutual obligation’ is still official policy in Australia. Until we treat people seeking help with respect, this stuff will continue

The brutal truth behind the destruction of not just ancient Indigenous rock art, but the world’s oldest art gallery containing the worlds oldest image of a human face is that for many in the fossil fuel industry destroying indigenous heritage isn’t a cost, its a bonus benefit.

Hilariously, the AFR is showing just how absurd is the scare campaign against the super tax changes. They give an eg where someone's super goes from $2m to $3.18m in a year! Yep a $1.18m increase. How much extra tax? $1,528! OMG!! THAT'S OUTRAG... err... oh actually that's bugger all
Assuming it is $3.1 million, with the $80,000 pension payment it becomes $3.18 million. If your balance on June 30, 2026, is greater than $3 million (say $3.1 million) then Division 296 tax will count a balance of $3.18 million in its calculations even if your balance at the start of the year was less than $3 million (in your case $2 million)

One aspect of Division 296 tax where you have a greater than $3 million balance at the end of the year but a balance of less than $3 million at the start is that it will be calculated as if your year started with a $3 million balance.

When determining your super earnings for Division 296 tax purposes you add together your year-end balance with pension payments and then deduct your balance at the start of the year from this. That’s $3.1 million plus $80,000 less $3 million. This will give you total super earnings for Division 296 purposes of $180,000.

Despite the large increase in your fund from $2 million to $3.1 million, your Division 296 liability will be significantly less given it won’t include the increase in your total super below the $3 million threshold. The 15 per cent tax will only apply to the percentage that $180,000 represents of $3.18 million or 5.66 per cent.

While 15 per cent of $180,000 is $27,000, 5.66 per cent of this results in a Division 296 tax liability of $1528.

This assumes there is no change in the proposed tax when – and if – it finally becomes law.

BREAKING NEWS Dr Greg Malham and the Epworth Hospital have decided to part company following a recent investigation into Dr Malham's conduct when he was filmed at night smashing election signs for Dr Monique Ryan and instructing watchers to "always make sure to bury the body".
A statement from Epworth Hospital's chief medical officer that reads:

STATEMENT
Dear colleagues
An important message from our CEO Professor Andrew Stripp:
I am writing to advise that Prof. Greg Malham has decided to leave Epworth HealthCare.
Prof. Malham, an experienced neurosurgeon and Visiting Medical Officer at Epworth, advised me that it was the right decision for him to step away, and I respect and support his decision.
Following the release of the video showing Prof. Malham pulling down an election poster of Dr Monique Ryan, he decided to take leave while an independent external inquiry was commenced.
Prof. Malham participated fully in the process, which was managed with our focus on procedural fairness. In all situations, we take care to listen, establish the facts, and act with integrity. This approach helps us maintain trust within our organisation and with the communities we serve.
Prof. Malham has also self-reported to the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (Ahpra).

Dear Deputy Prime Minister

The Panel’s appointment commenced on 9 November 2020 for an initial term of two years which you extended for a further 12 months.
During those three years, the Panel has oversighted Defence’s response to the Afghanistan Inquiry’s recommendations, other matters which attracted the Panel’s attention and finally the Enterprise Initiatives comprised in the Afghanistan Inquiry Reform Program. In all of its work, the Panel has received willing cooperation and assistance from all parts of Defence.
The Panel acknowledges the contribution made by Mr Simon Buckley, The Panel acknowledges the contribution made by Mr Simon Buckley, who was the first head of its Secretariat, and his successor, Ms Sharon Dean, who has been an effective organiser of, and active participant in, 
the Panel’s research, enquiries and the preparation of this Report.

“Afghanistan panel suggests military top brass [including GG David Hurley] be held ‘accountable’ for command failures over alleged war crimes.”

From the report Richard Marles received in Nov 2023 - but didn’t publish until AFTER David McBride was jailed.

The independent Panel “has rejected Justice Brereton's conclusion that senior commanders should not be held accountable for the murders of 39 Afghans.”

Of course, Brereton now heads up NACC.
