I am Australian, politically left of centre, self employed. I care about climate change, justice for people left behind, and against deliberate ignorance and self interest. DMs will not be responded to.

Trump loves his dictator mates. North Korea is providing a huge amount of weapons and fighters to Russia to support their invasion of Ukraine. Once again Trump is giving in to Putin by going easy on North Korea.

Trump does not understand that counting on economic pragmatism and using threats of violence will not work in the Middle East. He is incompetent and immoral.

Yep, Trump and his crew have created a shit show without a plan or strategy. Like everything he does - it’s criminal, self serving and everyone else suffers.

Nah, just helping the UAE defend itself. No one wants to help Trump out with this stupid war. www.abc.net.au/news/2026-03...

What is a Wedgetail, the powerful aircraft Australia is sending to war?
One of Australia's most sophisticated military surveillance planes will be deployed to the Middle East, along with a crew of about 85 defence personnel to operate it.

Wow, those questions have the credibility of asking “Do solar flares cause global warming?” Asking question to suggest a conspiracy or make an accusation is cheap political manipulation. The world is complex and the answers to all your questions have been answered in credible press articles.

I agree an invasion is very unlikely. However, There are tens of thousands Australians in the lower gulf states. Pre-positioning some of our most capable troops on a shared UAE base to assist in the possible case of a broad or localised terrorist event affecting our people seems wise to me.

Fair point, I am sure most leaders in the Middle East are without clean hands but remember millions of innocent people also live in those lower gulf countries. Are you saying that Australia has evil motives in proving non offensive support to the Arab gulf states?

Matt Stanton @matt-stanton.bsky.social · 03/04/2026
Just interested, what causes your sickening concern with the UAE? I have stopped over there several times on the way the Europe and found it to be one of the most liberal states in the Middle East.

I like the greens policies and passion on climate and housing issues but on this one you are being a bunch of amateurs. Special forces movements are not advertised. Having seen it before I do believe they are there to protect and extract Australian citizens if the region goes full war zone.

If the proceeds of the sale of this prime realestate is going towards housing investments for young Australians I am for it. This defense land is not open to the public and is not used for any real national security purpose.

These new NSW AI deepfake laws make good sense to me. “A person can now go to prison for up to 3 years if they use AI to make sexually explicit deepfake images or videos of someone. The same punishment now also applies to anyone who shares – or even threatens to share – those images or videos”

Don’t forget, when Pauline drops racist bombshells into the media for everyone to react to, she’s now being funded by Gina Rinehart, major contributor to racist propaganda group Advance and inspired by MAGA-guru Steve “flood the zone with bullshit” Bannon. The offence is the point.

Oh come on, that’s not fair. She is desperately doing everything she can to try to rescue her country. If that means fluffing the ego of Trump (evil clown) to try to get him to remove the current murderous regime I am sure she is willing to give up a lot.

I am not comfortable with your post. The plight of the Palestinian people’s in Gaza and the West Bank is driven by an immoral and criminal Israeli government. I will not assign blame to all Israeli citizens or Jewish people, that is clearly wrong. Example: www.jewishvoiceforpeace.org

Jewish Voice for Peace
We have a plan to end U.S. support for Israel's oppression of Palestinians. Join us. You belong here.

I defended your cartoon on LinkedIn suggesting it was illustrating a political narrative and was not a antisemitic trope. I was accused of supporting antisemitism among many other things. I want to submit your cartoon to the royal commission and ask if it is fare political comment or antisemitism?

Wow, the LNP are as usual searching for any opportunity to unleash a performative outcry of scandal. Albo is a well known music fan, Australian’s recognise authenticity and Susan is lacking. The LNP need to settle on some policy if they want to build back any credibility.

I have to admit I was surprised Albo’s office was being blockaded. I live in Marrickville and I have seen many protesters out the front but I have never seen anyone being blocked from entering his offices.

Hamas is fare game in the war zone. Targeting Hamas peace negotiators in a neutral country who has been hosting the peace talks is unreasonable. If I was the Qatar leadership I would condemn the attack and start withdrawing its massive investments the USA.
