  1. Why Anthony Albanese hates the Greens by Bob Brown

    "Albanese has continued to ignore or put the Greens down, despite relying on their support for gun law reform, housing legislation and changes to environmental law. All up, Albanese has relied on the Greens to pass 91 Labor bills. Without this support, his government would have been stymied."

    'You know if #Peters, #Seymour and the #Tax Payers #Union are panting hysterically about any #policy that they claim is the end of the world as we know it ... then whoever is making them clutch their pearls ... and act in a most agitated manner has raised something that the people they represent want strangled at birth.

    These people do not represent "the people" and definitely not fairness and equality, they represent maintaining a system that rewards the owners of #Capital that benefit from #labour and #business #owners being taxed to #subsidize the lack of #capital gains, #land and #inheritance tax that they refuse to pay.

    Calling the #Greens #communists is factually wrong and laughable but the fact they have reacted so #hysterically to the Greens proposed tax #policies, which would force their masters to pay tax (at all) is telling and all fair minded people should support the Greens because of this, otherwise tax #reform in #NZ will not happen.

  6. A radical idea from Bernard Keane to weight Australia's voting system in favor of younger people. Keane points out that there is already significant malapportionment between different states and territories in Australia

    The simplest way to address intergenerational equity is to lower the voting age. This is already a policy of the Australian Greens. The weighted voting system proposed here is more radical but certainly worthy of debate

  10. @georgemonbiot.bsky.social "Maybe Andy will turn it around" says the Guardian, hoping we buy it.

    As a Green voter I've seen NOTHING that ever makes me want to vote Labour. I've had them at the door, asking for me (and ignoring my wife), but I'm just not interested and never will be.

  14. RE: mastox.eu/@ZackPolanski/117008

    Now I have supported the #Greens for years, but I have to say that in this #Manchester mayoral elections, they really got it wrong with their candidate. At a minimum, to prevent Geraldine Coggins looking like a Temu Teresa May, they could have spent 5 minutes thinking about how she is projecting, removing the chunky jewellery, the power suits, the bright blue then red tops, I mean at least she could be on brand with green?! #Labour's #BevCraig in comparison is Che Guevara.

  15. RE: mastox.eu/@ZackPolanski/117003

    Burnham invites the architects of Austerity to the table, but not the Left Wing Party, like they wouldn't have an input on social care but Kemi Badenoch does.

    I guess the Greens are all 'terrorists' now or something?

  17. Labour invites the Tories to have input on Social Care but not the Greens?!

    I guess Greens are all 'terrorists' now is it? Because we resist the charms of the Rich?

    Fuck's sake....

  19. Hey Andy, what are doing about all those Data Centres nobody wants and the Tech Bros abusing our kids?

    "Greater Manchester Green Mayor candidate Geraldine Coggins is calling for “an end to the folly of rushing headlong into AI development without public debate and environmental protections.”

  21. Burnham: I will work with the Tories and Reform on Social Care, but not the icky Greens, who are all terrorists ...and silly....

    "I want a cross party movement on Social Care.......but I'm not inviting the Greens"

    Is this the new kind of politics Andy Burnham promises, the same as the old. But demonise Zack Polanski and vilify Green Voters as terrorists, that'll win those Green votes back /s

    'I see everyday #politicians repeat like parrots #economic propositions they don't even start to understand, defending a model that a central #bank admitted was wrong over twelve years ago. ... The #Greens propose actual structural change and get labelled "communist" by people who have never read a balance sheet or a #Lenin text. The heterodox approach #predicted #2008, predicted the #housing #crisis, and predicted the current private #debt trap. The orthodox models predicted none of it ...'

    'The orthodox model was declared wrong by the Bank of #England in 2014. Their paper “#Money Creation in the Modern Economy” stated plainly: #banks do not lend out deposited #reserves in a multiplier chain. Banks create #deposits when they make #loans ...'

    (NZ's Social Credit Party got a Court to agree five decades earlier.)

    'The consequences are not theoretical or academic. When you worship the wrong model, you can’t do anything else than design the wrong #policy. You pretend not to see the #monopoly extracting over 6 billions from a #mortgage market they control 87% of. You don’t see that raising rates shift #income from #borrowers to banks and does not touch the supply of housing stock. You end up believing the #household metaphor is literal — that the Crown pockets are empty — when #NZ’s #Crown debt is 44% of #GDP...'

    (The OECD average is about twice that.)

    '... #Galileo was almost burned at stake for simply asking the #Inquisition #judges to look in the telescope. Same old, same old.'
    '.....
    'Gentlemen, it is clear cut #class #warfare, and the #vested interests are so encrusted in #society that they are winning. Remember that their main weakness is in numbers, they are damaging and literally #robbing the majority of us, of the New Zealand society and brainwashing many trees to think that voting for the axe is the #prudent, #family sensible thing to do. The only chance you have is when numbers talk. The #election is coming...'
