Shoebridge is tough, smart and instinctive. a killer combo in politics. Australia needs a real opposition given hollowman Albanese's effective coaltion with the right.

Peter Caffin @pcaffin.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Interesting. If it takes 6-8 years for a rich person to get a sentencing for a sex crime in the US, Trump would probably never serve a day in prison, even if he were charged for Epstein Files crimes this afternoon. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/s...theguardian.comHarvey Weinstein sentenced to 15 years after sexual assault convictionSentencing comes after years of appeals and retrials in case involving former TV production assistant Miriam Haley 010
