Cheap nasty point scoring from #Dutton at #7th Oct memorials ystdy.

Remember hes pro white supremacy (and white supremacists are so very often anti-Jew anti-Papist as well).

Both Dutton and #Albanese would do well to remember that #Judaism is not #Zionism.

The latter was a political philosophy dating back to Herzl in 1896 and spoke of a Jewish homeland in Palestine where Arabs would be at best a minority and at worst entirely removed from the land of Zion.

#Netanyahu and his #Zionist donors and supporters don't want a peaceful two states solution.

We should be very wary of our politicians attending events held by any group in #Australia claiming to be Zionist.

Their voice should support Judaism and peace for Jews and Palestinians equally.

Crikey wrote a piece on the machinations of the debate in Parliament regarding the questions to be included in the 2026 Census.
And of course this centred on gender diversity. It seems to me that it is imperative that the ABS collects this data to enable governments to possess accurate information about the cross section of modern Australian society.
But what has emerged is that Anthony Albanese is so scared of what Dutton will do if these questions are added, he’s backed down.
This has become a characteristic of Albanese’s
government. He is so pathetically weak he won’t govern the country in a responsible manner in order to avoid any negative backlash from the opposition leader.
He has framed his government as Crikey points out, as not confident and a one that needs to be reminded it actually ‘did’ win the last election and people want it to represent their best interests, not those of Peter Dutton.
No one is interested in petty politics or voting for a weak leader, which Albanese clearly is.
He has let so many people down with his lack of conviction and willingness to cave into lobbyists
