A gas exploration drilling rig has appeared within sight of one of Australia’s most loved natural wonders, the 12 Apostles. We don’t need to turn our iconic natural wonders into gas fields. We need to prioritise Australians over exports. @emmashortis.bsky.social went to take a look ⤵️

This weekend we saw a rejection of Dutton’s far-right, pro-nuclear, Trumpian agenda. The Greens will always refuse to engage in this kind of politics. We will always be for people and planet, not on keeping the status quo or culture wars made to discriminate and divide.

Look, I'm so happy that Dutton is gone and it's a Labor win rather than the LNP. But, to see Labor win such a majority and people turn their backs on the Greens and others pushing for *genuine* progress for social and environmental justice makes me very sad. Labor are neoliberal light. #AusVotes25

Inner cover quote (had to split into 2 posts): "When someone is honestly 55% right, that's very good and there's no use wrangling. And if someone is 60% right, it's wonderful, it's great luck, and let him thank God. But what's to be said about 75% right? Wise people say this is suspicious..."

My next book to read arrived today:- THE CAPTIVE MIND, by Czeslaw Milosz. It is an oldie (1951) but won Nobel Prize in Literature, The Guardian says "A frightening book. It ought to be read". Very relevant to the present situation in the U.S.A. and potentially elsewhere.

Eating salmon? You're killing Tasmania. This Parliament has gutted our environment laws to protect an industry selling salmon from diseased pens & sending the Maugean skate extinct. Our research shows what needs to be done: theaus.in/fix_enviro_l... Watch + share our TV ad with Richard Flanagan ⤵️

I've been pre-poll volunteering💚 in a regional electorate. Labor volunteers call line is 'Vote Labor, strengthen Medicare. Vote Greens, get Dutton'. How does that ever make sense?

Sadly the Greens are at the bottom of the pecking order, and they have experienced increased bullying if they try to 'fight' back, even legislative changes to restrict them.

I've said I am watching big political youtubes for hours a day since Trump, but these mainly regurgitate the same big picture themes. Just gotta say, I love Bluesky for all the additional interesting (and just as important) stories that don't make it to a podcast.

On grocery prices, Dutton appears to have taken the 30% figure from a Daily Telegraph secret shopping study in March. The ABS puts the increase in food costs at about 14% www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Peter Dutton is painting a grim picture of the past three years. How do his claims stack up?

The opposition leader’s election pitch maintains Labor has presided over a litany of price rises – but experts say some problems began on Coalition’s watch

NEW: @motherjones.com reports that one of the men renditioned to El Salvador is Neri Alvarado, who was working in Dallas as a baker. An ICE agent told him they were questioning all men with tattoos. Neri has an AUTISM AWARENESS TATTOO in honor of his 15-year-old brother with autism.

A picture of Neri Alvarado, a young man, standing next to his brother, who is a young teenager. Both are smiling for the camera and wearing matching shirts. Neri has his arm around his brother.

A picture of Neri's tattoo, which is an autism ribbon in rainbow colors with his brother's name "Neryelson" written on it.

Probably because the salmon farming issue has an immediate impact on food supply?

It's always wrong to vandalize personal property and that certainly includes Teslas, and also: your government is actively disappearing innocent people without due process, so, you know, that second one is taking up my empathetic bandwidth at the moment.
