Locking up political opponents, hand-picking friendly judges. Hmmmm, North Korea, Russia and even the USA under Trump. This is actually sickening. This is not Australia, and this is not patriotic. It’s a dictatorship

Majority of Americans re-elected a convicted felon, funded by billionaires who orchestrated an insurrection and was perfectly fine with his VP being publicly hung Shudder to think about the lengths this sociopathic, dementing crook will go to in order to claw on to power

“ it is time to give up on the fantasy that this country will ever be able to find an execution technology that is safe, reliable and humane. We have not found one yet, and we never will” The death penalty is barbaric, inhumane and uncivilised. It’s not about justice; it’s only about cruelty

It lectures on Australian taxation but pays none itself. News Australia Holdings racked up 10 years of paying zero tax. It earned $1.89 billion in revenue, made more than $300 million in profit (a record for the past decade) & contributed zero. #auspol www.crikey.com.au/2026/10/01/n...

He would be far better off trying to build support for the Greens by using his obvious aggression towards converting wavering One Nation supporters than mounting an attack on taking labor voters

Melissa McIntosh is only one of a handful of Liberal women and boy oh boy she's as dumb as they come, plus shifty and sly preying on those out there that believe her propaganda and bullshit, it's a disgrace that Liberals think everyone is a complete MUG, she's dumber than Jane Hume.

House prices falling by a percentage not seen in 40 years does not mean house prices have fallen to affordable levels - it is just that we have seen them increase so much year on year, that falls seem significant BUT IT DOESN'T MAKE HOUSING AFFORDABLE IT JUST MEANS THE HOUSING MARKET HAS BEEN BROKEN

One would think the transition of Greens leadership would be seamless, but no...... They are imploding because there is a clash of oversized egos. The country needs a responsible third party and the Greens could fill that space if they only got their act together.FFS get a grip! Phillip Riley X

The thing about the leader of the Liberal Party in Victoria is that in every way she resembles the kind of moneyed-up, arrogant, condescending, school-prefect-promoted-above-her-ability-by-her-connections cliché that forever dogs Australian mainstream Toryism.

One Nation has reached the disgruntled members stage of their political cycle with familiar complaints of undemocratic values. It's a loop Australia has seen multiple times since the Queensland state election in 1998. From here comes the inevitable internal disintegration. #auspol
