If you're a politician who responds to letters with "I notice you didn't condemn this, unsavoury constituent!", bear in mind that many people possess moral clarity, but not all people loan it out for the purposes of 'mowing the grass'.

@FetchStep @Greens Grow up and take responsibility for the fact that hundreds of thousands of people have peacefully protested your complicity, Penny.

Difficult to know which of her long running online stoushes she's referring to but this person is absolutely renowned for telling women who've grown up in poverty that their criticism is because they are/are acolytes of private school boys and have no working class credentials.

@nareenyoung @DawsonEJ Hello Nareen. I have never harassed Emma Dawson but her tweet conversation did appear in my feed last night, and I did do a double take, and I did criticise it. I am forty six and have watched friends- single parents- struggle endlessly. Mutual supports are eroded by the fact 1/

Probably the maddest thing about Greg Sheridan's take (okay, one of the mad things) is that most of the young people not having babies are not having babies because they can't afford to house and feed them.

I finally read the whole Greg Sheridan "more babies" piece and I hate to inform you it is worse than I could have possibly imagined. "Babies are brothers and sisters for other babies."

PM Albanese on 3AW radio, asked about pro-Palestine uni protesters and "from the river to the sea" chant PM says "I reckon if you asked those people chanting it, heaps of them wouldn't have a clue, wouldn't be able to find the [river] Jordan on a map"

@JElliotMP All I have seen directed towards you today, on here, is valid criticism. As an MP you are responsible to voters and you are accountable for the things you do and say. The genuine campaign for better treatment of women is cheapened and obfuscated by this. Do better. Both of you.

Counterpoint: collective action exists because established interests have a habit of telling people what it isn't okay to organise for.

Bill Shorten on 7:30 says that “industrial action in the pursuit of workers wages is fine, but when it is in the pursuit of any other purpose it is a red line which is being crossed”. - I wonder what he’d say if the 8 hour movement were to occur today, or perhaps the Eureka

@joshburnsmp Why weren't you talking to her about more than eleven thousand dead children? Or the judgement of the ICJ? Or Australia's responsibilities regarding either? Or suspended aid on the basis of no evidence? More to the point, why wasn't she talking to you about those things?

@JulieMcCrossin He also wrote a biography of Mark Leibler, in case anyone reading your post should be interested in this minor detail. For the rest, Israel is reporting a similar death toll to any numbers coming out of Gaza, and no amount of sophistry makes it acceptable.

@kate_raindrops @RageSheen Exactly. I'm not especially anxious about catching it. I just think a sensible thing to do with a virus which kills and can have long term sequelae is to take what steps you reasonably can to not get it and not pass it on.
