Why has an ad calling for the end of native forest logging been taken down, while Santos ads are still running? What the heck?

Labor is feeling the heat of the national campaign for a gas tax, but words are not actions.
We need a 25% tax on gas exports in legislation. Now is the time to lock in and keep the pressure on.

There's only 2 countries in the world with illegal unchecked Nuclear Weapons.
North Korea and Israel
One of these countries has attacked 9 countries in the last 2 years and is committing a genocide.
It isn't North Korea.

I wasn't aware of the extent of the abuse members of the Jewish Council of Australia have faced. Awful stuff. It's so important for the media and government to understand how this happens and not to become complicit in this kind of abuse..... #auspol
Sarah Schwartz tells the royal commission how she has been personally targeted by both neo-Nazis and the Israel lobby.
“Pro-Israel messages have referred to me as a self-hating Jew, a rat, a kapo, a Nazi…assumes that Jewish people who don’t support Israel are traitors”.

It’s hard to imagine how anyone could see the dreadful harms caused by gambling in this country and not try to do something about it. But the Prime Minister and this Federal Labor Government still won’t act in the public interest.

The Socceroos are a true reflection of what Australia is. People from all over the world and different backgrounds trying to make a better life for themselves. We should be very proud of that. Those racist grifters who try to sow the seeds of hate and division will never succeed.

Condensed down to 1.6mins (~10min) train-wreck interview of Joyce, on One Nation's Housing Policy. The basic question,
"Does it include permanent residents?"

Kate Bush's first appearance on "Top of the Pops" was on 16th Feb 1978, where she performed "Wuthering Heights". She would later appear on the show several more times in 1978 and 1979. She was the first woman to have a self-penned song make No 1 in the UK chart; she was just 19 years old. #KateBush

Here's an idea to get housing back on track: build more homes
If it's serious about improving intergenerational fairness and housing affordability in this week's budget, perhaps the federal government should just build some houses.
