I am taking a break from posting to catch up on all the burdens the rich don't have to worry about. I will leave you with this and please brace yourself for what is coming. It won't be pretty. #supplychain #MiddleEastCrisis #climatecrisis

Israel is a Terror State and Ben-Gvir is a war criminal. Never forget! #lebanon #genocideawareness

@AlboMP @SenatorWong Since Israel has defended keeping this vile creature in its government - WHY have you not sent the Israeli ambassador home?

You too can join @Qld_Socialists. Imagine a new world, because that which seemed all but impossible a short time ago, is not only realisable but an urgent necessity. #qldpol #auspol

Note to corporate media - Israel''s actions are not 'killings' they are 'murders'.

Another dodgy LNP Government 'of the privileged for the privileged'. The sooner they are gone the better. #qldpol

Premier David Crisafulli acting like Tim Mander was sent to the South Pole. Mander in New Zealand when informed of AFP referral, arranges flight return to Qld but doesn't tell the premier. Somewhere over the Tasman on Thursday a media release. Premier told by staffer. #qldpol

These irreplaceable old growth forests continue to be logged across British Columbia. Over 1,200 people have been arrested trying to keep them standing. There is no time to waste. Protect the Irreplaceable. #ActOnClimate #climate #nature @bcndp #bcpoli #bcgov Pic @TJWattPhoto

This isn’t peak solar. This is early innings of system replacement. Australia leads per capita as rooftops turn homes into power stations & BESS scales fast. Centralized grids aren’t competing anymore—they’re being replaced faster than linear models anticipated. #Bettrification

"There is no antisemitic undercurrent to this march and there are a very large number of jewish people on this march as well. Jewish people who want to see peace and respect for the Palestinian people. Criticism of Israel is not antisemitic." Jeremy Corbyn

Proud to join hundreds of thousands of people to mark 78 years of the ongoing Nakba against the Palestinian people. We are a mass movement for peace — and we are never, ever going away.
