The Posie Parker Effect continues to roil Aussie politics. Liberals feared failure to throw PP nazi rally speaker Moira Deeming out of party would cost them Melbourne seat. 1st time for 100 years govt has taken a seat from opposition - with help of KJK! dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1…

Bit of a long one, but it's so important. Today Canberra passed a law making the Voice referendum official. It means later this year Australians will make a pretty simple choice:

It cost billions, to steal millions (from the poor), to empower a few. For a long time, the Australian public’s view of their democracy can be summed up by this front page. Faith in our institutions is at rock bottom. There is some poetic justice though. The man these named

A proper comrade. Tom Morello. Finds civilians being killed in Gaza horrific but is equally repulsed by the disgusting attacks on Jewish people around the world. Jews in Australia, the UK, the US etc - have no control over the conflict in Gaza. 100% of people know this.

Statement about the Lee Judgement. 🙏

May Gerald Ridsdale rot in hell with his partner in crime, George Pell. I was not one of his many victims but knew a number of boys who were. I knew Ridsdale from the pulpit where we lived in Warrnambool & at Inglewood in my paternal grandparent’s parish. My father was deeply 1/5

involved in the church. When I was in grade 2 or 3 the church was made aware that Ridsdale had abused a close family friend. Discussions about police involvement were had with Ballarat Diocese, Vicar-General Monsignor Leo Fiscalini(also Warrnambool Parish Priest & Ridsdale’s 2/5

direct boss) The result was Ridsdale’s agreement to 2 or 3 months voluntary admission to Lakeside Psychiatric Hospital in Ballarat. Coincidentally, our family had a reunion at Lake Wendouree during his apparent hospital stay. Playing with my sisters & cousins, I saw Ridsdale 3/5

walk through a playground full of children, with a tall dark haired priest. The next time I saw that priest was around 20 years later on tv news & in newspaper reports when Ridsdale was before the Melbourne courts. That priest was George Pell! When Jesus said “Suffer the 4/5

little children” I am quite sure the suffering inflicted by these evil men was NOT what he had in mind. This horrendous saga is unfinished business, for the church I was raised in. Thoughts are with families who have endured more than any human should. theage.com.au/national/austr…
