Tonight we gathered in Brisbane at the invitation of the Nepalese Association of Queensland, to express solidarity and share grief and wrap our arms around the people of Nepal and Tibet devastated by the natural disaster there that has taken so many lives.

National Party blocked out, (on the left of "for New England", and not a single mention of ONP anywhere. Nothing... Obviously, must find the new 'job' somewhat embarrassing.
One Nation’s migration policy shifted dramatically this week. Same One Nation flagship issue. Very different maths. #auspol
So wonderful to see the outpouring of love and respect for the absolute legend that is @cathywilcox.bsky.social www.smh.com.au/national/nsw...

So now we have a One Nation leader(Newman) who speaks Japanese in “English only” Australia, another leader( Hanson) who can’t speak English and Joyce who speaks Gibberish. Multicultural!
Thankyou @cathywilcox.bsky.social for your outstanding work and advocacy for many Australians through your brilliant cartoons. Like many I hope to see you bob up in our media in the future but whatever you do you will always be respected and well remembered. 10.
On a freezing 1983 night shoot, Dolly Parton laid her shawl over a homeless man. She says Sylvester Stallone yanked it off, calling the man "scum." Parton grabbed it back: "That could have been you, you ungrateful son of a b*tch." The next day, he'd bought the man a blanket.
Refugees,climate change, data centre power usage,wars,disasters..why can’t our Governments join the dots?
The best of America has left us. The worst of America lives on. Vale Dolly Parton She showed what being a great American actually means.

I hope #Australia stands totally behind #Canada in its fight to save the destruction of its economy from the economic insanity that #Trump represents. My best wishes to Canada's Prime Minister #MarkCarney as he defends integrity of his nation.
While we’ve still got him, always great to read the insightful polymath #barryjones in @thesaturdaypaper.com.au. Rare to get such depth of perspective in any press, certainly tinged with melancholy that we, as the human race, aren’t/can’t be doing better… a lot better
No one on the Insiders program corrected One Nation’s David Farley when he suggested his electorate of Farrer produced 40% of Australia’s food. Clearly nonsense. The total Murray Darling catchment made up of nsw vic and sa electorates make up 40% of food production.
Apparently the speech given by John Anderson at the Kings School Foundation 50th anniversary dinner was a real doozy. Blaming girls for the “difficult” situation boys find themselves in these days followed by a racist/religious rant on everyone different to JA’s mould of preference. Religious nutter

Time to toughen up Penny on the Israeli butchers. Netanyahu’s mob are treating us with contempt. #Genocide
Armidale should be very proud of the way the community has been a welcome light for so many from different countries. Joyce’s gibberish on the race card diminishes the truely great work of Armidale over many decades.Wearing an American cowboy hat to a discussion on monoculture says it all.

How incredibly noble of Sean Dorney to show the reality of being an older person with motor neurone disease on #4Corners tonight. Brilliant reporter back in the day. Helping Anne Connolly do her important work on aged care now. #journalism
Thinking of the nuclear scientist from Czechzia I met who was working as a lacrosse teacher because she couldn't get a job in her field here. She tried for ANSTO but her qualification level outranked everyone there so.. This story repeats across so many fields.
Pearls and Irritations@johnmenadue.com · last mo.Australia has skills shortages, yet almost half of skilled migrants are working below their qualification level. A clogged recognition system is wasting teachers, nurses, engineers and tradespeople already here, John Menadue writes. #auspol #Migration #Skills
The entire Labor party should hang their heads in shame today. In one foul deal with the Liberals, the PM has abandoned vulnerable Australians and given predatory gambling companies the freedom to overrun our sport and screens.
