Polls show that 80-89% of the global public understand the threat of climate breakdown and want their governments to act, but the world seems to be going backwards because the fossil fuel companies face fighting for survival, writes @fionaharvey

Gareth Evans, a highly respected former Australian Foreign Minister, has made a detailed submission to the inquiry into the $400 billion AUKUS Submarine Deal.
His input to the inquiry is what Australia should have had from the start of this costly and controversial deal.

On ABC Melbourne Radio this morning, Barry Cassidy said that if an election were held today, One Nation supporters would be wondering why they didn’t win.
“They have not yet penetrated the cities, and you can’t win without the… cities.”

Pauline Hanson’s Hypocrisy: A Masterclass
"Lower class Australians... the ones who are not on high wages" — WTF? These are the battlers she farms for votes, or the unemployed she ignores.
Meanwhile, she pockets:
→ $349K salary
→ $105K pay rise this year
→ Free luxury flights, private car, huge expense account
→ $9K annual tax cut
Yet she whines about "squandering" while opposing policies that help the very people she claims to represent.
Newsflash, Pauline:
Middle-income earners get
→Medicare,
→tax cuts,
→childcare subsidies,
→and free hospitals.
You get a private jet lifestyle bankrolled by taxpayers. AND THEY DON'T GET TO USE TRUSTS LIKE YOU DO.
We’ve had a gutful of your con job.

Will #Insiders admit that PHON foxed them after it all falls apart? No, they’re like the sports reporters who is sure a team will win but never apologises when they’re wrong #auspol
#insiders It’s only a matter of time before the extreme right-wing One Nation crumbles. Their policies are incoherent and they’re dictated by oligarchs. Frankly, their message is nothing more than racist dog whistling.🤡

#LNPDyingParty and #OneNeuron are indistinguishable.
No plans, no policies, no solutions.
Only outrage, division, fear-mongering and dog-whistling.

Murdoch rides in to save the day for the Liberal Party in Victoria.
For the media obsessed with polls:
"just 5 months out from the state election (One Nation) has no candidates, no Victorian leader and a hidden office beside a gun shop."

Exactly! Australians who complained about Labor government's attempts to rectify this gross injustice that favours the wealthiest should be very ashamed of themselves. #insiders #auspol #budget2026
A TRILLIONAIRE AND BILLIONAIRES ARE SCREWING THE WORLD SENSELESS….
The laws are written by the rich, for the rich.
Billionaires have mastered a system that allows them to legally avoid paying income taxes while ordinary people carry the burden.

The maximum old age pension for a single person is about $600 a week.
Pauline Hanson, at the age of 72, is getting around $340,900 a year (well over $6,000 a week) from taxpayers.
And she believes that people who rely on government pensions are wastrels and spendthrifts.
