Several of One Nation's leaders have expressly said they will ban all abortion for all girls & women, then 'clarified' they meant just the ones they decide should be forced to give birth. Believe them first. Believe them when they're not spinning. A One Nation vote is a vote for forced birth.

The Greens want a public housing developer to ensure people’s right to quality homes ahead of developer profits. The govt did it after WWII - they directly built 26% of all homes nationally. A public developer would deliver homes for communities. Homes before profits!

Bathla’s collapse is why Australia needs a public developer - not private developers profiteering off a housing crisis. Bathla owes over $3.4 billion to creditors, subcontractors & suppliers, with 14,000 homes in the pipeline. Hundreds of jobs lost. People’s entire savings are on the line.

Can anyone give me a good reason as to why we keep fighting wars in the name of “defending our country” when all we have accomplish is the death of 100’s of thousands of mostly innocent people, including our own?

OpenAI won't even consider renewable investments in Australia until the country agrees to kill its copyright laws so they can freely train on creative work.

When Albanese caves and agrees to this, OpenAI will just run on fossil fuels anyway: guaranteed.

Of course Hanson shouldn’t use Albanese’s mother to score political points.

Unless he’s willing to invest in public housing and lift disability pensions to a dignified level, he can keep quiet about his noble mother.
