Roshena Campbell: Ferntree Gully (Aston, 2022) Melbourne (as Dep Mayor, '24) Werribee (Western Metro, '26)? As Graeme Connors might put it: 🎵"I head a little further west each year..."🎵 At this rate she'll wind up next to me in Adelaide! 😱 #auspol

Don't wanna rip the scab off, but ... how would this medal tally have looked if they'd held the Commonwealth Games in, y'know, Victoria?
It's called Battered Woman Syndrome, Max. 👇 Stop with the excuses and seek help. #Congress #Midterms

You'll need to plant more than a "poor me" story in the tabloids to rehab your image, Kyle Sandilands. Yes, you copped a couple of death threats. Compare that to Fatima Payman's average week ... 👇 👀 < t.co/FYg5BHjLgb >

Lib narrative on new Vic Premier Ben Carroll: "He's the latest in a conveyor belt of bobooshka dolls. Allan/Andrews in a different skin". Steve Price: "He's the latest in a conveyor belt of bobooshka dolls. Allan/Andrews in a different skin". Got any ideas of your own, Pricey? #NewsCorpse #auspol

X is calling recent interactions between comedian Dave Hughes and "fact-checker" @aaronsmith333.bsky.social a "clash". ⤵️ Which is accurate, if you can't think of a better word for "freight train collides with small marsupial" ... 👇. Kudos to you, "fact-checker". #auspol

MY LATEST: With the right on the rise, Victoria finds itself on the precipice. Will our most progressive state - next in line for an election - become a 'canary in the coal mine’ of far right thinking? Bookies say 'yes'. #auspol #springst @MichaelWestBiz tinyurl.com/mry72sxm

Today, the Federal Court will decide if Hanson's attack on Faruqi breached racial discrimination law. It's "the latest threat to Hanson's surge" after her Sicilian sojourn with Gina last week drew fire. Are you kidding? The "free speech martyr" will print t-shirts if she loses. #auspol
