Strewth! 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 Victorian Socialists CARF & NUS made the call to leave as a bloc rather than dispersing in small groups. We told you well before we left. NSN had gone, TERF rally was winding down, their speeches were over. Day was already a win. Nothing was to be gained by staying

I will be letting the cat out of the bag in a bit

Met someone Turkish at a @RedFlag_SA stall who didn't know they could vote in Melbourne, shook my hand and ran off to the consulate. Spring's coming

Someone's trying to eat my lunch. Not as sneaky as she thinks 😹

Such a good episode! Ben was 🔥🔥🔥 talking about Chalmers and the Monthly subscribers 😅

Used quick print for my Mass Strike reading group notes with such confidence to only realise it went to the Level 6 printer 😅😮

We had a meeting today about why unionists should support a critical Yes vote for the Voice Referendum 😍

“Tout le monde deteste la police!”—Everyone hates the police—was chanted at demonstrations and riots across France last week. The trigger was an event both enraging and depressingly familiar: the murder of an innocent 17-year-old Black kid, Nahel Merzouk. redflag.org.au/article/no-jus…

One of our organisers on Sunrise this morning, making clear the links between the racism of the state and Nazi ideology. "One of the nazis is the son of a police officer. The police in Victoria have often been at the head of extreme racism towards migrants"

VICTORIAN SOCIALISTS STATEMENT ON PALESTINE We encourage Victorian Socialists members and supporters to attend upcoming rallies organised by Free Palestine Melbourne in solidarity with the Palestinians and against Israel’s ongoing bombardment of Gaza…

Edward will probably be embarrassed that we've singled him out, but you know what, if you live in Darebin South Ward, vote for Edward - he's a socialist and a saxophonist, and he's 100% got the best beard of any local council candidate in Victoria. victoriansocialists.org.au/candidates/edw…

A few days after October 7 last year, we published this statement. We stand by every word of it. In these dark times, when every day brings new horrors, our hope for the future is kindled by the millions around the world who continue to make a stand for a free Palestine. ✊🇵🇸

Whatever ultimately happens here we're very happy to see VS candidate Cat Rose - a nurse and long-time community activist - getting 32% of first preference votes so far in Darebin South West Ward. 🙌
