Best line: “Alabama on the Yarra” (with that ‘fun in the sun feel) 😎 as in: “Victorian Liberals spent the best part of a quarter-century tearing themselves apart, with much of the past decade given over to Christian fundamentalist entryists trying to seize control and turn the state into Alabama on the Yarra.” ✝️Thanks for sharing (even tho’ deeply depressing). 🙂🙏🏻

The problem is, it isn't just the government. Online, I have seen countless comments from individuals that are supporting this. They are supporting the police that "pumped a cunt". They are supporting authoritarian.
I feel this speaks to an article recently in The New Daily that was talking about the shift to the right and the rise in One Nation.

I don't know how you could argue that trust has not been seriously eroded in NSW Police. I feel nationally, NSW has been presented in the media as a "Police state". Between the "pumping of cunts", an innocent man being knelt on the head by officers, and legislation taking away your privacy when it comes to your mobile, it is hard to look at NSW and see it anything other than fascist state.

‘I didn’t go looking for trouble’: Protester sues NSW after allegedly being punched by police at Herzog rally
Shadid had requested officers to stop advancing as people were on the ground praying.
"Const Daniel Stewart then allegedly dragged Shadid, who had travelled from Parramatta, to the ground and punched him in the face and twisted his wrist. Another officer kneeled on his head"

This seems to be a conundrum worth considering carefully, in the interests of native forests and habitat for multiple endangered species.

Probably not ideal to have the boss of a new museum stand down 72 days before it opens, due to an investigation into "governance and procurement practices":
"The opening of the billion-dollar Powerhouse Parramatta has been plunged into controversy after its chief executive stepped down 72 days before the opening of the state’s biggest cultural infrastructure investment since the Sydney Opera House.
"In a shock development, staff were alerted on Thursday afternoon that Lisa Havilah had stood aside from her role of seven years pending completion of a departmental investigation into “governance and procurement practices”. Only five days earlier, the museum had announced its first five exhibitions for the November 7 opening to much fanfare."

TIL about Parliamentary powers to Order Documents be produced (OPD) from the govt. The NSW’s Premier doesn’t like it, apparently. There’s a lot he doesn’t like, protests for instance, or transparency, and even free speach. He’s a peculiar one this one. He’d fit in well as a Liberal Premier.

Recently there have been several misleading media articles (in reputable sources) regarding pedestrian, cyclist and personal mobility device road deaths deaths in Australia.
Some have “inaccurately suggested that e-scooters and e-bikes played a significant part in the rise in pedestrian deaths”, when “the fatalities were in fact the riders of e-scooters” (ABC Correction)

If you live in the #InnerWest, or anywhere in the #Sydney area really, have a look at this petition to make #VictoriaRd better for people:

Since there’s going to be a toll-free bypass between the Rozelle Interchange and the Iron Cove Bridge, we could repurpose some of the above ground space for pedestrians, cyclists, trees and more.
