From Papua to Gaza, military occupation leads to climate catastrophe

Environmental destruction is not an unintended side effect, but a primary objective in wars of occupation.

I think there is an appetite across the whole Parliament- all except Libs- to close Ashley within 100 days of taking Govt with funding allocated to service providers to care for the 18 young people currently detained. Tas can do this now! #politas

Most Tasmanians think Ashley is closed because Libs announced its closure but it is still operating and closure date gets pushed out. Now @jeremyrockliff wants to fill it up again with his crackdown on youth offending. We need every party to commit to a date for closure. #politas

Eye-watering waste. We know for sure from decades of evidence that this will not keep the community safer. We will have wasted $627m that could have been used to redesign out-dated health, education & social services that should be helping kids & families with complex needs.

🧵Queenslanders are calling for a smarter approach to youth justice that improves community safety & makes meaningful change to prevent crime. Spending $627.6m on building costs alone to construct a new detention centre fails on both fronts & makes future offending more likely.

"We can stop the revolving door and improve community safety by addressing the drivers of crime. It's time for the ACT to truly lead with a smarter approach to justice." More from Tom Calma and Kate Carnell, two of our ACT patrons, in the Canberra Times today 👇

The attacks on journalists and teachers for 'taking sides' in the #Gaza conflict is deeply troubling. Imagine if, when #apartheid was in place in #SouthAfrica taking the side of Mandela and the #ANC was prohibited?
