ah yes Duttons'e extremely radical plan (do nothing for energy except use taxpayer's $$ to keep a bunch of coal plants on life support for decades, while repeating the word 'nuclear')

🧵 Good night from Dublin. Here’s the sun disappearing west, over Grattan Bridge. I love sunsets in being nature’s most vibrant palette.

My art is about joyous colour too, as you can see in this thread of my one-off ink on paper drawings. [1]

Australia's journalist class has basically collectively and immediately decided last weekend's terror attacks were the direct result of anti-genocide protests and the entire political response is now going to be guided towards actions that won't prevent another terror attack

"internal ambiguities" on migration?
The Liberals need "less politicking"?

The word you are looking for, Michelle Grattan, is "racism". #auspol

Grattan again doing the LNP’s spin-meister job for them. And our ABC platforms it.
"If Mr Dutton became PM, we know he would be stronger on anti-Semitism, and move to repair relations with Israel."

Bizarre from Grattan.

If Dutton became PM, he would label any criticism of Israel as antisemitism, support genocide, and ignore international law.

Most older working Australians who rent do not have sufficient savings to keep paying rent in their retirement, according to the report from the Grattan Institute www.theguardian.com/society/2025...
Retirees who rent ‘really struggling’ financially, researchers say – and the problem is getting worse
Two-thirds of retirees in private rentals live in poverty, Grattan report finds, with more than half reporting net worth of less than $25,000

It’s been an odd day on Blue. The amount of interaction fell quite a lot. Not sure why. I’ve noticed that some days & put it down to the poor boffins trying to keep the beast alive.

But it’s late now & these are the seahorses on Grattan Bridge, Dublin as the sun heads West to America.

Sleep well!

Grattan Institute recommends withdrawing taxpayer funding for the small minority of specialists who charge patients on average more than three times what the government pays them. That would affect less than 4 per cent of specialists grattan.edu.au/news/its-tim...

Like most mainstream political journalists, Grattan misses the real danger:
In an effort to outflank One Nation, the Coalition uses racist dog-whistling phrases like "take our country back" and "mass migration".

Straight from #FarRight playbooks of Nigel Farage, Germany's AFD, and MAGA. #auspol

Interesting practical lesson in getting off gas today!

Grattan Institute wants to replace the broken gas cooktop in our kitchen with an induction one.

Uni of Melbourne (our landlord) says no dice: its policy is "like for like" replacement.
