Survey finds Australians think Welcome to Country ceremonies are divisive

[No link to Daily Telegraph article]

That's what you get for surveying Daily Telegraph readers after poisoning their minds for years with racist propaganda from RWNJ media.

Seriously, those racist fools at News Corp are so bitter about showing the slightest bit of respect to Indigenous people. Talk of Welcome to Country makes them clutch their pearls in fear and recite Peter Dutton's words.

Lesson for the Liberals: do the opposite of what Peta Credlin says
theage.com.au/politics/victori

This article lists fundamental problems with the Liberal Party. Peter Dutton led them to a record defeat — that's largely due to Dutton being a malevolent potato, but his image and message were not helped by the Sky News stooges such as Peta Credlin, who have been parroting the same awful talking-points since the days of Tony Abbott.

#Australia re-elects Anthony #Albanese as #Labor rides #antiTrump wave to seal crushing win

Australia’s centre-left PM, Anthony Albanese, has won a 2nd term with a crushing victory over the opposition, whose rightwing leader, #PeterDutton, failed to brush off comparisons with Donald Trump & ended up losing his own seat.

The Guardian · Australia re-elects Anthony Albanese as Labor rides anti-Trump wave to seal crushing winBy Sarah Basford Canales

Peter Dutton has lost. No federal opposition leader has ever lost their seat at an election...until now. Ali France won the seat of Dickson. This has to be up there with the time Scott Morrison lost his own seat of Wentworth.

The LNP is on track to receive the lowest primary vote in the history of the Coalition. Well done, Dutton.

“The #Coalition’s plan to raise $3.6bn by increasing #tax on #VAPES and making them MORE WIDELY AVAILABLE would lead to “serious short- and long-term harm” and is “exactly what #BigTobacco have been asking for”, according to public health experts.”

Day 33 cont 🥔🤓🗡️🥷

A Lady Macbeth comes to mind.

“Hume says it’s too early to discuss replacing #PeterDutton Shadow finance minister #JaneHume was asked on #ABCNews (#HateNews) Breakfast a little earlier about whether she sees shadow treasurer #AngusTaylor as a future #leader of the party.

Hume says it’s “too early” to have those conversations.

You do not read the #entrails until you have #gutted the #chicken. We will be working for every vote up until 6 on election day.

(my emphasis, "Out, damned spot!”)

Asked whether she wants to keep her finance portfolio, Hume says: “I hope so … but that is entirely up to the leader.” She adds:

#DemocracySausages are my favourite meal. If I was on #DeathRow and they asked me what my #LastMeal would be? A sausage in bread with onion and #TomatoSauce.”

A Freudian slip (#parapraxis)?

“Support for #Australia’s ongoing ban on nuclear energy has risen sharply since #PeterDutton (Liberal) ☢️ made the issue a central plank of #Coalition #EnergyPolicy, according to the country’s largest independent survey on #ClimateChange and #energy.

The survey also found fewer people thought any benefits of #NuclearPower ☢️ outweighed the #risks compared with the previous year.

Even among #people intending to vote #Liberal, support for #nuclear ☢️ power was not overwhelming, with only 53% in favour of the party’s intention to lift the #NationalBan if elected.”

“If #PeterDutton (#Liberal) ☢️ were to form government, safety could come to the fore again because it would need to overturn the #FederalBan on #NuclearEnergy, implemented in 1999 by #JohnHoward (ex PM, Liberal) in a deal with #TheGreens.

Despite the dangers being dismissed by Labor☢️ (AUKUS) and the Coalition ☢️, Caldicott remains concerned about #NuclearWaste being improperly stored in #Australia and contaminating water supplies – or even a #Chernobyl-like #reactor meltdown.

“It’s not being discussed at all, which is amazing to me”, Caldicott says. “People are very ignorant.”” — #HelenCaldicott MD

Q Where is the hottest Nuclear waste in Australia right now? (hint 1950s Nuclear tests exploding #Plutonium above ground)
