Allegedly, the US has given the all clear over Australian earthquake concerns & nuclear reactors. That's good enough for Ted O'Brien. Wonder if he's told his Qld LNP mate, Keith Pitt? #auspol

The Climate Council is warning that there is a growing risk that different parts of Australia may face more than one disaster at the same time or in quick succession, with cascading severe weather events a real possibilitythis summer.

“We call it climate whiplash,” a former commissioner of Fire and Rescue NSW, Greg Mullins, said during a media briefing today.

“We go from heatwaves and fires to floods and storms.”

#auspol #ClimateCatastrophy
Above-average temperatures are predicted forthis summer in many parts of Australia, based on the Bureau of Meteorology’s long-range forecasts. This summer will also likely be wetter than normal – especially in December – with a greater chance of unusually high rainfall in parts of Australia’s east and northwest.

Many Australians do not like the way politics is reported. Here’s how it can improve

Many Australians find political news off-putting, but it’s vital for our democracy that media outlets work towards making their reporting more accessible and relatable.

Irony of any Landlords complaining about this, … is that we wouldn’t be in this situation had they protested against Climate negligence and denialism that was practiced by Red-Blue politics the last three decades

Journalism students - including this one - are taught a sacred code of ethics is practised in newsrooms that dictates the separation of advertising and editorial to maintain integrity and audience trust.

Only to enter commercial old media and discover that is complete bullshit the first time they're tasked to cover anything to do with real estate.

Or in the case of News Corp, anything at all.

Don't let Peter Dutton divide Australia. Discuss sensibly what's happening in Gaza, Israel & Lebanon but don't come to blows over it. He's chafing at the bit for something to happen. Then he'll blame Labor & offer himself as the only saviour. #auspol https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-12-04/dutton-claims-un-resolution-israel-withdraw-for-votes/104682622

If MPs want more public money, they should do their jobs first - The Australia Institute

‘Tis the season for poor process, rushed law-making and railroaded parliaments. With the end of the year rapidly approaching, governments have lost patience for democratic niceties like consultation, parliamentary reviews and public hearings.

Instead what will happen is obvious too, those who want to find a way around will do that, parents will also then have a scapegoat to blame for this - the government (yes you did put your foot in it), the government will then try to blame some random implementer (contractors beware the poison pill), lots of pointing fingers.

A virtual (in more ways than one) shit storm, when all of it, all of it, could have been resolved by spending more time with your kids, maybe you should do that anyway.

Edit: Just to ram it home, think about the lessons you are teaching your kids, "set it on auto-pilot", "your morals are what somebody else enforces upon you", and so on, I know my parents never taught me that, and I highly doubt your parents did either for the most part.

This one's for the government, respect and how much you've all been going on about that lately, do you honestly think that depriving kids of knowledge and social experiences is a form of respect, or disrespect (devaluing their input in society)?

So what are the solutions then, well it is pretty obvious to me, education, guidance.

Yes that means you have to spend time & effort to do things that, lets be honest here, you should be doing as a parent anyway.

If you're not prepared to do that, or don't give a stuff anyway, don't blame anyone else except yourself, for one, having kids in the first place, not being responsible for what you have done.

So yes, it does appear to me as if there a hell lot of bad parents out there, looking for someone else to blame for their own inadequacies.

Disclaimer: I am not a parent, not by choice, just the way the cookie crumbled, some might then say, how would I know, well, I have a brain, and I AM abstracted from the situation so I can analyze what is happening without bias, and this is what I see, however unflattering that may be, and is not what you may want to hear, but constructive criticism rarely is.

Right-wing hacks at the #ABC are still attacking Joe Biden over pardoning Hunter.

They're not telling viewers that Trump's new pick for FBI director Kash Patel has threatened to come after Trump's enemies, which should be a huge story.
