Civilians cannot be targets. Never. The images from Gaza are unbearable. The EU reiterates its call for the free, safe and swift flow of humanitarian aid. And for the full respect of international and humanitarian law. Civilians in Gaza have suffered too much, for too long.

It is so late, Ms Kallas. Only sanctions can stop Israel. Suspending the EU agreement with Israel is a must. Anything less will be just performance, which the millions of Europeans who are grieving for the genodice in Gaza, would much prefer being spared from.

The Australian Dictionary of Biography and the Australian National Dictionary are national treasures. Both are proposed to be disestablished under ourANU leadership's plan to slash and burn CASS. NTEU stands against these cuts. insidestory.org.au/the-jewel-in-t…

"Can the Assistant Treasurer clarify how Labor's super tax on unreal capital gains would operate for a farmer who has their farm held in a self-managed superannuation fund when they've had a failed season with no income?" Why is your farm in your super, you tax bludger? #QT

The Australian Federal Parliament is a place where racists who turn their backs on a First Nations 'Welcome to Country' ceremony is greeted with silence but daring to protest Israel's genocide of Palestinians will attract an official censure. Right, Senator Penny Wong? #FuckYou

The Senate expresses “extreme disapproval” against Senator Faruqi and disallows her participation in delegations. FFS! Senators who have supported Netanyahu voted for this yet their reprehensible and inhumane conduct is unsanctioned. Beggars belief! theguardian.com/australia-news…

The UK must immediately recognise Palestinian statehood. There can be no two state solution if there is no viable state left to call Palestine.

Israel’s “drip feed” has caused Gaza to become a land of “walking corpses” according to UN. Deeply satisfying to ethno nationalists and settler fanatics who these days run Israel.

We should follow France and recognise Palestine in line with Labor policy and the near unanimous opinion of ALP rank and file and voter base.

And please, Senator Penny Wong, don’t delay it waiting for the UK. That would be craven. Enough of Europe has moved to make this the conventional position of Western democracies. Send a powerful message to a state now regarded as a pariah.
