The #LNP learning from the #Teals ? Let’s get serious here. That’s never going to happen, not with that mob. They’ll cut their collective feet off before admitting anyone could be more ‘liberal’ than they are.

“#ForeignFossilFuel and #IsraelLobbyists are flooding the 2025 election campaign with cash and smear ads against the #Greens, #Teals and #Labor. #auspol
We investigate the #shadowy players behind #AdvanceAustralia, #better Australia, and the so-called #MinorityImpactCoalition, revealing how these '#astroturfers' are sowing fear and lies, deploying #DarkMoney to rig the #conversation.
Who #funds them? Why now? And why is the #AEC doing nothing?”

“Volunteers wearing #MoniqueRyan campaign t-shirts have been captured on video saying a community organisation, which has historical links to the Chinese #Communist Party’s #ForeignInfluenceOperation, told them to vote for the teal MP.
In the footage, a woman says the instruction came from #JiJianmin, who is the president of the #HubeiAssociation, an organisation representing people from the Chinese province that has also been accused of working with the #UnitedFrontDepartment, a Chinese government agency that advances #CCP interests internationally.”

Day 22 cont 
“Traditionally safe seats are #flipping around the country, as voters put their hopes and dreams in independent and non-major party candidates.
But it takes more than just hopes and dreams to create a seismic political #shift that flies in the face of decades of voting history.
So what does it take for a #challenger to pose a real threat to a #SafeSeat?”

𓅠 Australia’s key ally has gone rogue – and Trump has us expertly wedged. We need a plan B

Zoe Daniel is a "Teal Independent" who made history by beating former Federal Treasurer, Josh Frydenberg, to become the Federal Member for Goldstein. He couldn't read the room; she can. Zoe Daniel also has extensive experience as a foreign correspondent for the ABC. I think that combination of considering local and global matters gives her excellent insights.
Zoe Daniel's insights in this article are well worth your time, in my opinion. She deftly shows the interrelationships between Trump, Trumpism, Peter Dutton, and Dutton's mindless mimicry of Trump when he talks about DOGE and DEI. Zoe Daniel wants you to think about our values and history, and the regional implications for ANZUS, AUKUS, Five Eyes, NATO's slow and rudimentary action to help defend Ukraine from Russia, and more.

Now the Murdoch press is known for its hatred of Australia's Teal independents. What it's not known for is its journalistic rigour ...
