- My actual job description is activist and here’s what I tell people in despair all the time: do not underestimate how much harm you can prevent by being just a little bit annoying.
- Penny Wong on ABC #RNbreakfast fails to address Chris Sidoti's legal and ethical argument for the arrest of Isaac Herzog. Her response: "The Australian Jewish community requested that President Herzog visit to provide support." The last person I want to provide "support" is a genocide enthusiast.

- Just a reminder that universities are supposed to be places where ideas and opinions can be expressed freely, including defending human rights. To be clear, if it wasn't already for some people, antisemitism is horrific, not tolerated, and never should be. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...
- Secret correspondence between the Attorney General and the head of the NACC Brereton show just how little faith anyone has in his ‘leadership’ of the NACC. Finally the govt has qiestioned his failure to disclose the extent of his ongoing side hustle with part of Defence.
- The response from Brereton was so full of self justification, half truths and obfuscation that it’s hard to believe he is the head of the National Anti Corruption Commission. There are even more answers needed now. But the most obvious answer is clear - resign!
- People often ask me why I left the U.S. and there are various reasons but the thing that made me start really making an exit strategy was when journalists covering Standing Rock were being arrested. Historically a very bad sign for democracy. Seeing it get worse and more blatant is scary and sad

- A friend pointed me to a post on social media of a letter by Kerry McCarthy MP (Labour, Bristol East) about a request for a televised emergency briefing on the #ClimateEmergency I was stunned by how casually the idea & its urgency were dismissed. Let’s unpack why this response is so wrong-headed 🧵
-
View full thread17/ Yet if the government won’t step up, the public cannot afford to wait. You can watch the National Emergency Briefing, share it, & help organise community screenings this spring. Civic action is critical, not a replacement for leadership, but a way to amplify the urgency. 👉 Get involved
- 18/ Encourage your MP to watch the talks and attend a local screening, then ask them to join the Parliamentary Call for a televised emergency briefing. Civic pressure is how leadership can be summoned.
- 15/ As newly reported by @ben-cooke.bsky.social in The Times, a UK #climate risk report warning of cascading crises, including migration & conflict, was kept from public view. This is not caution. It is political evasion.
- 16/ The letter shows a lack of leadership. Complexity isn’t a reason to avoid action, it’s why the state must lead. Community groups can support engagement but cannot replace the government’s duty to clearly communicate national risk. This is a failure to govern in the face of a known emergency
- 13/ There’s also a legal obligation being ignored. Under Article 6 of the #UNFCCC, governments must ensure: – public access to #climate information – education and awareness – meaningful public participation People have a right to know the risks they face. unfccc.int/resource/doc...
- 14/ The wider context makes this worse. The Labour Party is now in government. The responsibility to level with the public lies squarely with them. Instead of rallying society to respond to #climate risk, key information has been delayed, downplayed, even suppressed!
