Accountability knocks Will Labor shift the deck chairs first or will voters demand accountability finally? Shifting the deck chairs doesn’t produce deep accountability - it simply avoids it Major party ideology finally exposed for producing nothing Vote local - strengthen community Ind/Greens

Aging boomer here, I’ve ditched alp after a lifetime of being disappointed in them and now totally disillusioned by @albomp.bsky.social and will be putting my vote to the greens. I cannot in good conscience vote any other way.

Dear @davidshoebridge.bsky.social I support the @greens.org.au on most issues, but I am appalled by your position on Ukraine. Ukraine has been invaded by Russia. They are defending their sovereign territory. I cannot understand your reasoning not to provide aid to them. #auspol #SlavaUkraini 😔 🇺🇦 🌻

The Greens under new leadership have made the decision to be a government-in-waiting and many Australians are energised by that Its not only a mess made by Albanese and Labor, its a dysfunctional mess created by major parties in our body politic that serves no-one johnmenadue.com/post/2026/10...

Don’t listen to religious extremist and warmonger Hegseth and his sycophantic mate Marles who claims “shared values” with this obnoxious and dangerous fool. Military experts, politicians, diplomats peace activists, unions, faith groups all oppose the madness that is AUKUS.

Bad enough that successive Australian governments have outsourced our defence and foreign policy to the US. But with Trump and Hegseth in charge, the 'alliance' [aka Australia giving up its sovereignty] is a huge threat to our national security. #EndAUKUS #auspol
