This shows just how extreme the US is. Livestreaming an execution by firing squad is the behaviour of a bloodthirsty dictator. Yet the Albanese Government is tying us closer and closer to the Trump regime.

The Daily Mail used an image of ex-IDF soldier and right wing agitator Avi Yemini as an example of pro-Palestine protesters “clashing” with cops. Righto. It’s been more than 36 hours since this article went live and despite a campaign for a correction by News Cord, the image is still up.

Nice to see VS candidate for Bass Chris Jobe getting a mention in Crikey for talking sense on potholes at a recent candidate forum on Phillip Island (article link below). No doubt there will be many such moments 'halfway between sincere amusement and genuine irritation' in this campaign!

Crikey article excerpt quoting socialist candidate Jobe linking a drop in road quality to privatised maintenance under Kennett; a crowd corrects "16 years" to 27, and Jobe says, "I'm saying it's privatisation's fault."

We don’t think the case for this has been made. One constant in the global history of policing is that every weapon given to cops, they will eventually use. Therefore, every force escalation requires compelling justification.

Labor's spend on KPMG has nearly doubled from $32 mil in 2024-25 to $59 mil in 2025-26. Labor has been watching a repeat of scandals & still hasn’t delivered meaningful reform. The temporary month-to-month freeze on KPMG is nothing but a pathetic, tokenistic punishment.

It's an indictment of our for-profit, market-driven housing system that so many homes sit empty while increasing numbers are living on the streets. We'll take real action to bring an end to this practice and redistribute homes left empty for no good reason to those who need it most.
