When oligarchs talk of “personal liberties and free markets” they mean their own liberties to become even richer and more powerful.

When oligarchs speak of “freedom,” what they actually seek is freedom from accountability.

Know the truth.

Original succeeds when passion for the jumper is demonstrated by actions. Big tackles. Valiant acts. Bringing the biff. Have any of tonight’s players got that passion?

They wore Israeli flags on their lapels & screamed at the Prime Minister for being circumspect after a terror attack - but will take a stand on "principle" AGAINST hate laws" and gun control?
I don't understand? 🤔 Are these the hypocrites who many journalists called genuine? #auspol

Threat of Coalition split as three Nationals quit opposition frontbench Three Nationals senators have resigned from the Coalition’s shadow cabinet following their split with the Liberals over hate laws, in the latest blow to Opposition Leader Sussan Ley.

Gotta say, it’s apt - even just - that the first parties burnt by the grotesque politicisation of Bondi are those who fanned the flames in the first place.

Be aware - pretty much everyone in the press gallery calling for a Royal Commission into antisemitism is doing it because they are completely annoyed the government is not "listen to meeeeeeeeee".

Great opinion piece Rocco. Voss was a lightning rod triple premiership captain and leader in field. I don’t think that’s translated at all to his coaching prowess though. If Horse could be enticed to relocate back to Melbourne they could do a lot worse.

Insanely bad set shots. Thank goodness we had Wayward Will Hayward who was kicking straight. Big shout out to our spear head J Amartey with 0.6.

His statement condemns Israel’s actions and those of Hamas. Ie condemns the violence and the killing.

At risk of being rude, have others noticed the extreme irony of the National Party (self declared ‘friend of farmers’) breaking up the coalition because they oppose Net Zero while Australia languishes under extreme floods in NSW and extreme drought everywhere else? No? Just me, then?

What do these Liberal Leaders have in common?

Menzies, Holt, Gorton, McMahon, Sneddon, Peacock, Howard, Hewson, Downer, Nelson, Turnbull, Abbott and Dutton.

They all held seats that are no longer represented by the Liberal Party.

Be proud.

Proud of whom you love.
Proud of who you are.
Proud of who you are becoming. Because your journey is your power.

Always remember: Europe is your ally. I am your ally.

This week and every week.

Be proud. Always.
