Australian here 👋 Stop saying the tragedy in Sydney demonstrates that strict gun laws don’t work. There were ZERO mass shootings in Australia in the two decades after strict gun laws were passed in 1996. We have so much we need to do, but strict gun laws remain a critical part of the solution.

I got my hands on a second hand copy and devoured it. Excellent writing and marvellous storytelling. And I happened to be visiting Sydney when I read about the travelator, which as a Melburnian I didn’t know about, so I visited. Thank you!

You can rationalize it however you want but staying on twitter is a terrible choice. It is not the “town square.” It is the world’s disease-ridden dump. You don’t need to be there to think critically or write relevantly or stay abreast of current events.

I’m guilty of this hope that a thumping majority will give Labor the courage they lacked last term. I think I’m probably kidding myself.

Dutton will ALWAYS be the racist who walked out on the apology,the jerk who denied a toddler in detention critical medical care, the bigot who fabricates divisive fake Culture wars for cheap political points and the bastard who fuelled racism to sabotage an Indigenous Voice to Parliament #TemuTrump

Hey Dutton, we haven’t forgotten your attacks on Welcome to Country ceremonies. Don’t treat Australians like fools. You walked out on the apology, and destroyed a generation worth of reconciliation with your No campaign based on cruel lies. This is your legacy. You can’t undo it now.

Compare an electoral system with compulsory voting and the obligation of the national electoral body to ensure that everyone can in fact vote with... ...A country where authorities deliberately make it hard--or impossible--to vote. Australia -v- US. No contest. #auspol

Good to remember too that Paris is so gorgeous in places where there aren’t a lot of tourists. We stayed near Rue Des Martyrs last year. Nice and quiet. But, yes, if you do want to spend time in the busy places it can get a bit intense.

Dan Tehan in Wannon kept away from a panel on bushfire and climate change in Colac. Greg Mullins basically said if you are concerned about increasing bushfire risk, liberals should not be getting your vote.

Liberal Party sources reveal Albanese Govt upset Canberra contractors by rehiring them as public servants instead: "They loved their life as contractors. ... They were paid more." No kidding. Just reinforces @australiainstitute.org.au research that public servants are better value.
