Four cynically named political parties linked to One Nation, "Refugees are Welcome Here", "Muslim Votes Matter”, “Free Palestine” and “Save the Environment” are seeking party registration ahead of the November election and we need to shut that shit down because they intend funnel preferences to ON.

I remember driving from Melbourne to the Gold Coast in 1986 and having odds and evens rationing. My son was a baby and didn’t like us traveling at night. So I’m sure we’ve had rationing since the 70s.

He dragged Australia back into the past with his black armband view of history; took the country off a progressive path to the future. And his lies about the children overboard were egregious. I’ll never forgive him for that. The only good thing he did was regarding gun control after Port Arthur.

Something weird about these early 40s white men insisting we ditch net zero and fuck the consequences. The pig-headed, nihilistic disregard almost made sense for Abbott (67), Joyce (58), Morrison (57). But Hastie/Duniam are 42. Millennials who might've led the Coalition into the 21st century...
