In a move of dubious legality, the Modi govt has attempted to overturn the verdict of India’s environment court by approving an Adani-contracted coal mine. The Gare Pelma II coal project threatens thousands of livelihoods in 14 villages👇🏼 #StopAdani adaniwatch.org/modi_governmen…

Thousands of workers again walked off the job in Brisbane today. Labor's laws choking the CFMEU based on untested allegations can be used against ANY civil society group or union. I wonder why corporations with proven criminal behaviour are not put into administration 🤔

Australia’s environment laws are currently not fit to deal with the climate crisis. Anthony Albanese and Environment Minister Tanya Plibersek MUST enact a ❗climate trigger❗ in our environment laws and stop approving new climate-wrecking coal and gas projects. #ClimateTrigger #AusPol

If it were iPhones that were leaving the factory with explosives inside, the media would be a hell of a lot faster to cotton on to what a horrific precedent has been set today. Nothing can justify this. It's a crime. A crime. And everyone in the world is less safe for it.

Ben Pennings I'm impressed with the accuracy of the height measurement. 177cm, not "about 175cm or 180cm", not a range - specifically, 177cm.

I got sick of armchair experts telling me that protesting doesn't achieve anything, so I documented a bunch of recent Brisbane examples where activism got the goods. Enjoy! jonathansri.com/activismworks/

Every obscenity from Israel is met with a mild tut-tut from Labor and more F35 fighter jet parts. Instead of meekly excusing their latest horror Labor should sanction Israel's leaders, stop the two-way arms trade and actually stand up for the people of Palestine.
