Listening to Parliament, as you do - LIB Member for Moncrief delivering an economic speech that is so full of holes It’s bloody ridiculous. Polies mouthing the lines of #Business, #Grifters and #TheivingCorporations. The #AlboPM govt may be #Timid, considered #Ineffective and #Unrepresenting #LaborValues, but by golly, those #Libs are a sorry bunch of puppets.

The UK has condemned #Isreali actions in the #GazaStrip as #EthnicCleansing. Richard Murphy claims, presumably as the UK Govt would, that this is not calling what’s happening in Gaze a #Genocide. My Q is, when is ethnic cleansing not genocide?
When the ethnic cleansing is not 100% of the population? When the killings of an ethnic community does not amout to 100% of the its numbers? By this reckoning, the Holocaust was ethnic cleansing then… How abhorant is this play on words when faced with the resolute and calculated mass killings committed by #Israel. I also welcome the lastest condemnations (from twelve coutries… so far) of Isreal, its govt and the military. Sanctions do not go far enough. Now if only #TimidAlbo would step up…“It is very welcome that the UK government has made some important distinctions.
It has said that criticising anyone for being Jewish is unacceptable. At the same time, it has made entirely clear its view that criticising the Israeli government is not an act of antisemitism, because, of course, it never could have been.
It has made clear that Israeli occupation of the West Bank is illegal, which as a matter of fact, it is.
It has said that Israeli action in Gaza amounts to ethnic cleansing, because that is what it is and what it has been from the outset.
It has not yet said that the Israeli government has committed genocide, but it has made very clear that it is inclined to think that is the case and that it would support legal action to confirm that opinion.
These are major restatements of UK foreign policy, and without exception they are welcome.”

It’s not just the UK, it’s twelve other countries including France!
#AlboPM is surely captive of the #ZionistLobby. Shame on you #Anthony. -

It’s yet more of #AlboPM temu-progressive agenda… tinkering round the edges, complicating things when it’s really very, very simple — Ban #gambling #advertising, full stop. Everybody wants it baned except peeps who don’t matter and #betting industry #leeches causing misery. This pile of shite, a sorry excuse for socially responsible legislation has more holes it in than an old sock (trust the betting shops to get around most of it as soon as it’s passed.
Ban the bloody advertising in all forms and pass it with #Greens and #IND #Anthony, show some cojones amigo !
With a bit of luck it won’t pass the #Senate.

@johnquiggin
I sympathise with your frustration John (not just about gun laws) and agree that while #Labor has moved its legisaltive agenda through parliament, there is little in it to establish any kind of ‘legacy’ for the #AlboPM govt. Not least of which is in Firearms legislation. Apart from knee-jerk useless quick-fixes around the edges, especially from States and Territories.From my perspective, any Federal ‘umbrella’ legislation to tighten up gun laws in Australia will run afoul of States and Territories govts. Case in point: though agreed by all jurisdictions, the Federal Gun Register proposed by the Howard govt is still to be delivered (and from an IT perspective, this is a no brainer). How then can any PM even think national gun laws are possible? Imagine the shit fight that would ensue were legislation to be tabled in Canberra to licence and control all 3D printers.
On the contrary, meaningful gun control law reforms must be undertaken by the States and Territories with the Feds providing guidance and funding — because funding is the elephant in the room, for all enforcement services. Not just those policing legal gun ownership, but border control, criminal intelligence, and gang taskforces, and then some. To put it into perspective, how long has our society been waiting to get gambling adds banned?
Any changes to gun laws/processes/regulations require cooperation and coordination at all levels of government together with sustained budgets adequate to the tasks. In our dreams…
I believe the idea that terrorist massacres, DV and Gang murders, can be prevented just by reducing the number of guns that can be legally owned is laughable. Our gun laws may be in need of reform to keep them relevant in changing circumstances like any other law, but if you cannot effectively police them no legislation is going to make any impact at all. Just as no amount of policing is going to prevent illegal speeding on our roads or drunk driving — the later a loaded gun. In the end, society as a whole (not a tyranny of the majority) must want more policing and more effective gun controls if not an outright ban. NSW is, from memory, the State with most (legal) firearms and most por-gun voters. So, NSW is where it must start. But while Minns is in control you can forget it because he is out of his depth on this one IMO.

@bastardsheep
I do not understand how one can champion ‘the rule of law’ and at the same time condone an illegal act. It just doesn’t make sense, Penny #Wong does not make sense (It must be killing her inside I wager).BOO to the #Australian govt, yes, looking at you #AlboPM for not having the guts to stand by your avowed principles just because, you know… fear, dependency, hypocrisy, (add terms as appropriate).
