Western media is simply dedicated to justifying the slaughter of Palestinians.

Happy to share my latest piece "Decolonise to Decarbonise" published by the Institute of Strategic and International Studies (ISIS) Malaysia ISIS Malaysia isis.org.my/wp-content/upl…

“Austerity has left scars, so we need more austerity to fix that” is a bizarre strategy.

I'm told our paper was the 4th most downloaded paper published by the journal Global Sustainability over the past year. It turns out a lot of people ARE interested in a critique of what remains mainstream economics. research.torrens.edu.au/en/publication…

Looks like the Greens support is holding up and becoming a trend - broadcasters will need to start reflecting this shift in public opinion by featuring Greens more
