If a troll is trying to waste your time geting you into stupid arguments about nothing, if you argue with them, they're winning and you're losing. Im happy to have good faith debates. Bad faith accounts will be muted and reported. DMs disabled.

“…by ignoring the spirit if not the letter of the Geneva Conventions, the U.S.* is endangering the lives of service members in this and subsequent conflicts.”

After Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan:
"Now the Australian government supports the US again in another war. But worse this time, because Donald Trump is in charge.
...Hopefully this won't be the worst war in my lifetime. But it could be the dumbest." - Barrie Cassidy. #auspol
A good reminder. #SolidarityWithIran
You’d be a simple, reckless and dangerous soul to go to war on an imagined possibility but that's what Trump has done.
And Australia is supporting him.

Rick Aaron @RickAaron • Mar 6 Twitter BREAKING: The United States has threatened to drop their biggest bomb on Iran. B-52s are being loaded with DVDs of the Melania documentary.
Seen elsewhere, I'm still chuckling....
Oh.
“We have agreed” — how nice of them! Surely they’re doing this work pro bono right?
Many Australians are yelling this at our current government, but they refuse to acknowledge it
No legal basis. No clear objective. No exit. And much of Britain’s political class spent the week calling Starmer a coward for noticing.
Latest substack from me.

For someone who portrays himsellf as a tough guy, Hegseth seems to attack a lot of unarmed targets.
The House of Lords Digital & Communications Committee just published their report on AI, copyright & the creative industries, and their conclusions could not be clearer.

Over 160 schoolgirls are dead. Anthropic and Palantir executives must immediately testify and tell the public whether their AI is responsible.
I see Farage is off to Mar-a-Lago to talk down Britain and suck up to Trump.
There's nothing patriotic about cheering on a foreign leader whose illegal war is sending British families’ energy bills through the roof.
“And for him to turn around in the last week and have a crack at David Pocock and Grace Tame, you could not be further departed from the reality of Australians to do that.” – Hannah Ferguson

Kanwal Sibal @KanwalSibal • 6h X The Iranian ship will not be where it was if we had not invited it to talk part in our Milan exercise. We were the hosts. I am told that as per protocol for this exercise ships cannot carry any ammunition. It was defenceless. The Iranian naval personnel had paraded before our president. The attack by the US submarine was premeditated as the US was aware of the Iranian ship's presence in the exercise to which the US navy was invited but withdrew from participation at the last minute, presumably with this operation in mind. The US has ignored India's sensitivities as the ship was in these waters because of India's invitation. We are far from politically or militarily responsible for the US attack. Our"responsibility" is at a moral and human plane. A word of condolence by the Indian Navy ( after political clearance) at the loss of lives of those who were our invitees and saluted our president would be in order.
Some context to the Iranian boat that was targeted by US off Sri Lanka coast
Former Indian FM: “US was aware of the Iranian ship's presence in the exercise to which the US navy was invited but withdrew from participation at the last minute”
Last week, UK lobbying regulator closed investigation into ex Tory MP Ben Howlett
We offered Howlett money to work for a fake Chinese investor. He introduced us to a dozen Labour MPs
Regulator didn't even speak to us. Our system is broken

A new analysis of 95 posts by BBC political editor Chris Mason suggests the issue may not be accuracy – but framing.
No single headline is inaccurate. Impartiality rules appear unbroken. But repeated talk of “predicament”, “backlash” & “U-turn” frames a misleading story of permanent crisis..

A footy is an oval shaped ball you have to put on the ground in your opponents in-goal area to score a try. Which is how you score points to win a game of footy.

Apparently Iran is run by religious fanatics #USpol #auspol
By Jen Sorensen.
Quietly, calmly and forensically, BBC just dismantled the Trump communications shitshow on Iran.
No hyperbole, just laying out an unprecedented military, diplomatic and reputational shambles.
Worth a watch.

Sun headline about £500k compensation for migrants, discussing human rights, and public outcry over payouts.
Did you see this headline?
Did you feel the requisite anger and rage at asylum seekers that The Sun was asking of you?
Did you maybe blame Starmer because.... um... it was probably his fault🤷♀️
Would you like to know the reality behind the headline?
Course you would!😜
Let's take a look

No one is blaming the Conservative government who acted unlawfully under British laws
And that is down to our highly partisan media landscape
So keep those critical thinking skills sharp when you see headlines like this!
Watch out for the red flags and ask all the right questions!

There is just something deeply disturbing and offensive about watching a Labour govt keep kicking the most vulnerable in our society.
Extraordinary from the Liberal Party's 2025 election review: not all shadow ministers are "equipped" to develop policy.
Their main job is to "cultivate relationships" with interest groups, who are "keen to assist in policy development".
Private donors are keen to assist too.
