2020: Anti-abortion activist Tony Abbott thinks the eldery are dispensible. #auspol #abortion #Christianity
Former Prime Minister Tony Abbott has slammed what he calls a "health dictatorship" as we fight the #COVID19Au pandemic, saying it is reasonable for the elderly to die rather than have the government try to save every life. | @hughriminton

2019: One Nation's Pauline Hanson calls for violence against protesters. #auspol #OneNation #HateSpeech
First Credlin twice suggested running over the protesters in QLD then Sky News brings us Pauline Hanson who wants to taser and gas the protesters because she doesnt want to live in a society where protesters disrupt her life. Free Speech anyone🤔 #Auspol #AdShame #SkyNAD

What about this? There could be no greater example of incitement to violence than this photo on the front page of the #SunshineCoastDaily Look at how the men are portrayed as great blokes & then check out how Annastacia Palaszczuk is portrayed. Another example of gutter press.

There's no turning point until politicians address the root cause, and it's not social media, it's the media giants like Murdoch, and dictators like Putin & Netanyahu, who spread wall-to-wall hate in the West for Power. Educate children about #misinformation. #auspol #Finland

7 million young voters have been denied a say on #Brexit by the Brexiteers, who ran on a platform of ‘Taking Back Control’. #UK #polls
📊 The 2016 Brexit electorate no longer exists. Peter Kellner has updated the sums using YouGov and ONS data. Since 2016: 🔹 Around 3.8m Leave voters have died, against 2.1m Remain voters. 🔹 Around 7m new voters have reached voting age, overwhelmingly pro-European. 🔹 Around 5m voters have changed their minds 👉roughly three-quarters of them moving from Leave to Rejoin. His estimate of how Britain would vote now: 🇪🇺 REJOIN: 20.0m 👉 63% 🇬🇧 STAY OUT: 11.8m 👉 37% A majority of almost 9 million. Brexit happened. Britain has lived with it for a decade. But democracy does not freeze the electorate in 2016 forever. The question is what Britain wants now not what it indicated in 2016.

I’ll stipulate that Trump is an agent of Putin. Go down the checklist. 1. Destroyed the Western alliance? Putin wanted that. 2. Threatened a NATO ally over Greenland? Putin wanted that. 3. Pulled out of the intermediate nuclear pact? Putin wanted that. 4. Withdrawing 25-40,000 troops from Western Europe while Russian bellicosity is rising? Putin wanted that. 5. Russian satellites giving coordinates to Iranians killing our soldiers, and his response is “they kill us, we kill them”? What American president says that? I think he’s been compromised. The election of Donald Trump may be the greatest foreign policy success in post-Czarist Russian history.

ASIO boss Mike Burgess: “While political differences, debates and peaceful protests are essential parts of a healthy democracy, ASIO has seen direct correlations between inflamed language, inflamed tensions and acts of violence.” They can't see the Murdoch correlation. #auspol

Tommy Robinson spreads the same Russian propaganda against Ukraine as the Green left. Weird coincidence. #auspol #Russia #Ukraine #propaganda
As #TommyRobinson's trial begins, your regular reminder that his fascist politics and activism includes campaigning against Ukraine - this from outside the Ukrainian embassy in London, 2022
