Always worth remembering the extent to which John Howard diminished our ethics, & scorned humanity. The Tampa travesty was perhaps only outdone by his ‘weapons of mass destruction’ lies & support for subsequent invasion of Iraq. A miserly, misery man

I call on the Australian government to #RaiseTheRate of all support payments to a living wage. This would be the single most effective way to lift the productivity, quality of life, and well-being of the whole country. #CommitToALivingWage

40 straight years of budgets geared towards them, and one year the (rich) boomers are not at the forefront of the politics and you get this.

criminal law is wielded against low income people on behalf of the propertied class and this landlord story tells you that as clearly as any deficit discourse Y0uTh CriMe coverage that pretends police do not decide who is traumatised and impoverished through criminalisation and who is not.

Our hearts are shattered – and some have broken them further
There is no going back to where we were before December 14. But a social contract Australians relied on has been destroyed by the Coalition.

I am shocked by Premier Minns- trashing democratic freedoms in NSW to appease authoritarian extremists who characterise the March for Humanity as violent. A violent lie to protect genocide.

Australia Institute analysis shows that the privatisation, deregulation, and outsourcing of public services has failed to provide economic or social returns to Australians. Read the full report: australiainstitute.org.au/report/priva...

Privatised Failure
For many years competition has been enshrined as a goal of economic policy.

In Crikey, Catri Menzies-Pike and I wrote about Creative Australia's decision to drop Khaled Sabsabi from the Venice Biennale. If conservative media is going to dictate cultural policy, Creative Australia might as well pack up and call it a day www.crikey.com.au/2025/02/17/k...
crikey.com.au
Instead of defending its artists, Creative Australia hangs Sabsabi and Dagostino out to dry
If conservative media is going to dictate cultural policy, Australian culture will face a reckoning.

The real ‘magic’ of our beautiful ocean baths is that they’re free to use. They were built by governments that thought long term & thought about providing amenity to citizens Its not complicated. If we could afford nice things 100 years ago then obviously we can afford them now

Nah. Tax is good. Australia is a low-taxing nation. We should raise more tax and provide better funded services and assistance
