“If the Royal Commission is serious about investigating the nature of antisemitism and its “key drivers”, it should begin with Australia’s Israel lobby – the leading proponents of the conflation of antisemitism with antizionism.” — Louise Adler www.deepcutnews.com/p/if-the-roy...

Attempts to reopen abortion access in Australia show how women’s rights are made negotiable through language, media framing and political theatre. The fight for abortion rights is also a fight over who gets to shape the story, Janine Hendry writes. #auspol #AbortionRights
When women’s rights become clickbait
Attempts to reopen abortion access rights in Australia show how women’s rights are made negotiable through language, media framing and political theatre – and why independent journalism matters in resisting that backlash.

"In the 23 years from 2007 to 2030, Australia will spend 50% more on the diesel fossil fuel subsidy than on transitioning our energy system to renewables by 2050." This is Australia's shame + stupidity writ large. Transition? What transition? #NZPol #AusPol fyi @marcdaalder.bsky.social
Capping Australia’s biggest fossil subsidy is the productivity reform we can’t afford to ignore
Australia will spend 50 pct more on this relic of fossil-era policies than on transitioning the country's energy system to renewables by 2050.

Dr Sarah Hendrica Bickerton 🏳️🌈@sarahhbickerton.bsky.social · 2mo agoNot to mention, what got the likes of Aussie to the position it is now with solar (and continuing the massive transition too) was government spending including subsidies.
