Abbott can unify a deafest Liberal Party and whisper in the ears 👂 to the One Nation voter defectors not to abandon the long term established party of the right. #auspol #nswpol

This whole ‘start fuel rationing’ debate has the echoes of mandate mask wearing in early days of covid. Health said they were relatively ineffective given the huge public imposition. The govt resisted but in the end got perception finally gave in. It seems the same #auspol
Totally legitimate in our robust democracy for a politician to combine official business with party political activity. We need to strengthen our liberal democracy not gaslight it! #auspol

“Copenhagen reported that 62% of its residents are now commuting to work or school by bike — an increase from 52% in 2015 & 36% in 2012, when the City Council launched a 14-year-plan to improve the quality, safety & comfort of cycling.”

Remembering a dear friend, the always late Graham Chapman. He ceased to be 35 years ago today.

Extending Sydney’s light rail along Broadway, supporting start-ups, enhancing the night-time economy and accelerating the transition to greener industries are all part of a 10-year plan by the City of Sydney to boost the city’s prosperity. smh.com.au/politics/nsw/ligh…

My fellow Democrats, I have decided not to accept the nomination and to focus all my energies on my duties as President for the remainder of my term. My very first decision as the party nominee in 2020 was to pick Kamala Harris as my Vice President. And it’s been the best decision I’ve made. Today I want to offer my full support and endorsement for Kamala to be the nominee of our party this year. Democrats — it’s time to come together and beat Trump. Let’s do this.

SYDNEY | Light Rail patronage figures have been released for June 2024, meaning we now have a full picture of ridership for FY23/24. 40,596,335 trips were taken on the Sydney Light Rail network in FY23/24, up almost 25% from FY22/23.
I was part of the Baird gov that banned this ‘sport’. We compromised and put them on notice. Time now it seems to revisit the world wide movt to close it down. #nswpol #auspol

Noting no one commends the Liberals for their founding right to ‘cross the floor’ on issues of policy or conscience. Hasn’t weakened strong party governments of the day #auspol

Sensible. I recall Black Summer fires attending RFS briefing in blue mountains and hearing fire resources had been redeployed to protect the north coast timber forests because it was expected 1000’s of replacement power poles would be required #nswpol

With a heavy heart, I tell you that my father, Donald Sutherland, has passed away. I personally think one of the most important actors in the history of film. Never daunted by a role, good, bad or ugly. He loved what he did and did what he loved, and one can never ask for more than that. A life well lived.
