Crikey | Hanson pleads for help, the ADF pleads for noodles, and Cochon pleads to see Milton Dick’s $485 tie by Cochon Truffier
AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.
One Nation leader Pauline Hanson has been found to have billed Australian taxpayers almost $16,000 for private charter flights to flood‑hit regions of Queensland—a claim that contradicts her earlier statement that the travel would cost “no cost to the taxpayer.” The tax‑funded journey began on Gina Rinehart’s Gulfstream G700, flying from the Sunshine Coast to Mount Isa, and then continued to Cloncurry and Julia Creek before returning to Mount Isa.

So imagine my surprise to discover a very brief mention of yesterday's march in this piece in #GuardianAustralia: https://web.archive.org/web/20240303150944/https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2024/mar/03/australia-to-announce-gaza-aid-as-pro-palestine-and-pro-israel-supporters-rally.
What’s this? Actual coverage? Mentioned in a headline? And then read on—surprise, surprise—to discover yesterday's instance of sustained weekly protest demanding an end to genocidal violence is treated as though it were a one-off event in response to the 'Flour Massacre' (one of the few Israeli atrocities to have received more than passing coverage by mainstream media), and Guardian Australia immediately contrasts it with a pro-Israel rally on the other side of the continent, an event that video and other reports put in the mere hundreds (with a pro-Palestinian counterprotest of similar size, the counterprotest unmentioned by Guardian Australia).

Ummm, sorry GA but that is a train, not a tram - I know it’s confusing when your views of the world are coming from Sydney and your sham trams. Next thing you know is that you will be declaring the 612 bus to Chaddy a ferry 😀. It is a shame that you don’t have local people to ask about such things….

In honor of the Tawny Frogmouth's recent 2nd place showing in #GuardianAustralia #BirdOfTheYear2023 I present this picture from 2017 of the only time I saw one in the wild. On a walk in the Mt Glorious area near #Brisbane, I said to my wife, "Hey, that mailbox has a great tawny frogmouth carving... oh wait!"

#GuardianAustralia, typically the best of a terrible lot amongst mainstream #AustralianMedia when it comes to reporting on issues of #justice & planetary crises, is still fundamentally a pro-capitalist organisation.
Today's snapshots:
- https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2023/jul/27/nsw-considering-all-options-to-keep-power-bills-down-as-coal-cap-end-date-looms
An article on how #NSWLabor government under #ChrisMinns is considering expanding #coal subsidies that doesn't mention the fact that these are direct subsidies to the coal industry at a time of soaring profits due to Putin's war in Ukraine. Unmentioned: the "cap" on prices is accompanied by the government stepping in to pay coal companies for the gap between sky-high international coal prices & the cap on what local consumers pay for electricity. The article quotes the head of the coal lobby (former chief of staff to #MikeBaird btw) but no voices critical of the policy.
#nswpol- https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2023/jul/26/house-prices-australia-sydney-rebound-growth
An article reporting on the worsening of the #HousingAffordability crisis framed exclusively in positive language (growth, rebound, recovery, clawed back lost value, recouping, revival, best (=highest)). Senior figure in property market quoted extensively. #auspol -

Ugh. It's happening here! And I dislike it immensely. Further, I really dislike the fact that Guardian Australia has managed to do this:
'The girl was born male but “socially transitioned” at the age of four, the court heard.'
Is it ironic social transitioning? Fuck me. Social transitioning *is* the treatment for children! Has the Guardian gone trans medicalist? Nothing in that sentence needed quotation, or an actual quote the court heard needs to be there. Yuck.

@John Semi-rhetorical question / observation. GA's cookie cartoon policy is weird. 😮

Say what? 🤷♀️

What an awful framing. Anything that slows Australia's outrageous population growth is disparaged in this article.
Ecology, quality of life, well-being, gdp-per-person ... it's as if they didn't exist
