This claim is patently false, @s_deery - the CFA have not 'announced' this: please update your story to reflect the facts. @JaclynSymes

“It’s not just social media which is to blame for spreading division. The UK tabloids have long been whipping up anger against immigrants, asylum seekers and Muslims Fanning fear, breeding hate, and now leading to violence.” #MediaWatch

X persists because it has so many active, engaged users - users who look at ads, who are paying Elon Musk to host them here Posting here, reading stuff here, engaging with people here all contributes to the broader effect of this remaining the place for "engagement"

The Bangladeshi government has declared war on dissent. Thousands are missing, dead, injured in state violence executed to silence opposition to an anti-democratic regime. smh.com.au/world/asia/almost…

74% of Australians support a wealth tax on individuals with over $50 million. Turns out folks like Gina Rinehart, Clive Palmer and Anthony Pratt aren't exactly beloved national treasures. crikey.com.au/2024/08/05/g20…

This is ridiculous. The ACF is a well respected mainstream ENGO. If it can be suspended for 'breaking X Rules', then no environmental group is safe from censorship here.

For Australians in the Bush, renewable energy is so much more than climate action. It’s a transformative opportunity to reduce cost of living pressures and to promote energy security and independence. Read and share my blog.👇🏽 lyrebirddreaming.com/post/be…

The 1992 Disability Discrimination Act mandated that ALL Tram Stops be accessible by the end of 2022 At last count only 400 of 1700 had been done - in 30yrs It’s a disgrace that vulnerable members of our community are excluded from basic services like public transport #springst
To show massive improvements Melbourne has made over Toronto, is that there's at least a program to replace tram stops in corridors, but it is slow, needs more funding and also better traffic priority. But it's far better than nothing. We need to do more of course, a lot more.

☢️ Too dangerous, too expensive, too slow. ☢️ We'll be fighting to let Peter Dutton know Victoria is a NUCLEAR FREE STATE, and we plan on keeping it that way. These t-shirts are ethically made right here in Melbourne. Get yours: weareunion.org.au/shop#!/Vic…

🇦🇺 must do our part to support ppl fleeing one of the worst humanitarian catastrophe's many of us have witnessed in our lifetimes. I've been calling on govt for months to offer humanitarian visas for Palestinians, just as we did for Ukranians & Afghans. smh.com.au/politics/federal/…

Right across Australia, the big four banks are facing heat over their continued backing of fossil fuel expansion – shoutout to the Denmark Bulletin in regional WA for this piece. In 2023 @ANZ_AU, @CommBank, @NAB and @Westpac provided $3.6bn to fossil fuel companies.

Environmental groups back in a First Nations rights based reform agenda in the Basin. It's time for change! Thanks allies.
Last Friday, more than 80 people joined us in Swan Hill for the River Peoples' Forum! Together, we explored what needs to change to deliver water rights and water justice for First Nations in the Murray-Darling Basin ✊ 📷 Samantha James, Swan Hill Guardian
