Middle East crimes show why we should oppose the US alliance

The world would be a safer place if the Australia-US alliance were broken.

There's 'a shock coming' for Tasmanian Labor, party elders warn

Ahead of a state conference, a former Tasmanian Labor premier and treasurer lash the party's performance, telling the ABC the opposition's policies are indistinguishable from the Liberals — and there's no pathway to government without crossbench support.

I was able to read this from the newsletter link. Hope you can too.

And YEP! Exactly what's pissing off #Labor supporters...

The man who knew too much: Barry Jones on Albo, Putin and the end of the line

At 93, the Labor legend and former science minister is eyeing the “exit ramp”. But he isn’t going quietly, taking aim at Anthony Albanese’s lack of courage on reform and a political system that has lost its way.

Iran would be naive idiots to negotiate with turdmp regime. Twice now , in the midst if negotiations, Iran was attacked by the US.
Its perfidy AND stupidity rolled into one.

I'm so, so deeply disappointed in #pennywong an Asian, Lesbian in a gay marriage being a right of centre politician. She sold her soul to be the perfect party apparatchik.

And once again, #Albo is a wet lettuce "leader"
He was the first leader to lend aid to USRAEL invasion and hides behind a woman because he has no balls to say #ALP supports turds invasion of #iran

Would been better if:

Australia had invested properly in robust, integrated public transport - or in some places ANY public transport

Decades of successive LNP Govts, plus PHON fighting against renewables, EVs etc left Australia vulnerable

#Albo #ALP didn’t cause this #FuelCrisis. It’s global

@sister_ratched I suspect this has something to do with it. My goodness, you can buy the #ALP for cheap. Actually, this may even be BOGOF territory, if the silence of the LNP is any indication.
