#ABC news director Justin Stevens spent the same amount of time covering Michael Rowland's hair as he did to covering a major press conference from the PM on 30 new pieces of legislation...150 seconds.

Why is David Speers all-in on the #Murdoch driven #SocialMedia ban?

Murdoch's brainwashed Speers that Social Media is evil and Murdoch is pure.

2022: Speers caught on a hot mic on #insiders (via SquizzSTK).

"... since Israel’s genocide in Gaza, Palestinian identity, if publicly expressed, is being treated as a threat by the NSW Education Department."
...
"It should be unthinkable to ask a Jewish student to remove their kippah at a graduation, so why is anti-Palestinian discrimination acceptable?"
...
"The Education Department document on “conflict in the Middle East” has been quietly updated recently to remove the word “neutral” ..."

"It is possible that the keffiyeh makes supporters of Israel’s genocide in Gaza uncomfortable, but schools shouldn’t pander to that. Schools displaying the Aboriginal flag, or giving an acknowledgement of country may make some racists uncomfortable, but schools don’t buckle to racism in those cases."

Albo from Focus Testing seems pleased with himself this morning.

'We've got your back,' in a year, sort of, now go bet on the cricket.

#Meta (#Facebook) claims it's concerned about 'age-appropriate experiences and the voices of young people'.

If #Murdoch and David Speers are backing it, we all know what the #SocialMedia ban for children is really all about, and it’s not about protecting children from harm.

Murdoch wants to ban children from getting political news from Social Media. Traditional media is dying.

#ABC news director Justin Stevens ran Trump rallies uninterrupted for hours, but when the Oz PM is giving a major update to the public about 30 pieces of legislation he gets cut off after just 150 seconds.

Any questions from journalists? 🤷‍♂️

Senator Birmingham cashing out. Won't be any so-called Coalition moderates left.

Who do we reckon will 'reward' him. What was he a minister for ... Education, Tourism and Fiance. So a bank or hedge fund. Gonna get loaded.

Don't know what's worse. Shorten losing an election running on good policy, or Albanese winning with no policy, which he goes on to prove was not a tactic but the deal.

Sure we all imagined an Albanese Prime Ministership would have something up its sleeve to define the first term, but nope. Here we are at the end and what is there to show for it?

Little but noise and thought bubbles, some dumped, some desperately clung to, but no consistency. No overarching narrative. Albanese is Labor's Morrison. How depressing. What a waste of three years.

Reminder: Russian assets like Katie Halper, Cornel West and Jill Stein used #Israel’s #genocide in #Gaza as a prop to divide and conquer the Left and help #Trump win (again).

They are fake progressives.

Cuts to NDIS too quick. It's ok to question programs but the federal government has to give the stakeholders time to respond & adjust. Aus Music Therapy Assoc had no warning.

A baby announcement shouldn't be a leading national news item unless it's for a head of state or a human-alien hybrid.

"When you look at Anthony Albanese, who founded the Parliamentary Friends of Palestine, and Penny Wong, and Richard Marles, do you see monsters? Perhaps not monsters but appalling moral cowards and rank hypocrites, who witness Israel’s blatant crimes against humanity and do nothing, breaching Australia’s legal obligations to prevent and stop the barbaric carnage."

Oooph. Greens flag they may vote *for* the Social Media Ban and digital ID legislation according to ABC Radio National.

Looking for confirmation.

#auspol #socialmedia


On reflection, smells of a lot more than damage control.

Who doesn't let their own party line up to speak in favour of their own tent pole legislation?

What are Labor afraid backbenchers will utter? Truly weird behaviour.

Labor and the Coalition are combining to create a legislated weapon that can be deployed by the government in power, and specifically the Minster for Communications, against virtually any online platform, forcing every Australian to show identification to use it.

This is the largest digital power grab Australia's yet seen and eclipses virtually any other government short of the likes of China, Russia or North Korea.

#auspol #socialmedia


Legislation as written gives the Minister for Communications blanket powers to proscribe anything they consider 'social media'.

Current and future govts and ministers could wield the legislation like a weapon against virtually any platform that allows online communication, banning under-16s and forcing all other Australians to use identification to use them.

Edit: Corrected name of Coalition speaker, Wallace referred to Coleman and it was not Coleman himself speaking. Coleman spoke earlier.

#auspol #socialmedia


McCormack, a senior member of the Coalition, flags extending the ban to gaming platforms.

Late to the party, but House of Reps has been debating the Social Media Bans since 12:17pm.

Notably, no Labor members will speak according to Michael McCormack, currently on his feet. Not even the Minister? Kind of strange and gutless.

Shit-ton wrong with Labor's social media thought-bubble ban made legislation, and subesquently rammed through parliament, but perhaps the worst is that it's little more than a smoke screen for the Albanese Govt's communications portfolio dumping gambling ad reform.

Deliberately implemented long after the election when it'll be dumped or radically altered anyway, it serves its puprose of generating noise and sucking up attention badly needed elsewhere.

Politicking destroying policy to mislead and deflect, just to retain power, not use it meaningfully. Disgusting on multiple levels.

Question Time should be interesting.

Dutton: My question is for the Prime Minister. Why are our social media and donation bills so fantastic?

Albanese: I'd like to thank the Member for Dickson for that excellent question. And it's great that we've shown the Australian people that together, Peter, we can do anything. We want.
