So much suffering for so many. 💔 “On 19-year-old Aananda Thapa Magar’s phone he has a collage picture of everyone he lost in the disaster. The faces of his father, grandfather, uncle, brother, sister-in-law, and his niece — who was only three years old – smile in the pictures.”

Hanson’s “swamped by Asians” speech. The Coalition’s hawkish language towards China, Labor’s competition to appear “tough on China”, and the Murdoch media’s relentless “China threat” narrative have all contributed. pearlsandirritations.com/post/2026/08...

ALP is a train wreck LNP is a train wreck Constituency is fed up But…… Greens destroyed by years of media attacks One Nation near total media saturation and support Is it any wonder we are here? I told Rudd and Shorten years ago to go after media consolidation. ALP blinked.

The footage coming out of Nepal is utterly horrifying. All those innocent people dead because governments around the world are too beholden to corporate interests to act against climate change. And to all the media who downplay the crisis, you’re to blame too. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/a...

According to the ABC, PM Anthony Albanese has "guaranteed" the Refugee and Humanitarian Program will not be cut, despite earlier reports that it would be cut by 6,250 places. While this is welcome news, we should not and will not cease our advocacy for the protection of the humanitarian program.
Beautiful moon tonight. You can always count on nature to cheer you up.

More evidence - if we needed it - that One Nation is unfit for any form of leadership at a federal or state level. Homophobic, anti-choice, xenophobic, incoherent. It’s absolutely critical that those of us who believe in a diverse, accepting and generous 🇦🇺 stand against this divisive negativity.

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.
Victoria has begun vaccinating about 5,000 little penguins at Phillip Island and St Kilda to protect them against the deadly H5 bird flu, in what is believed to be the world’s largest vaccination program involving wild birds.
