Had a flick through the files for cartoons of the former Foreign Minister (May 2018)
Was overseeing the dramatic cuts to the Australian Government's foreign aid budget her most substantial achievement?
It's been pretty dramatic
Which kicked off with the merger of AusAid and DFAT, to better align aid with the government's foreign policy agenda
I forgot how we almost went to war with New Zealand during their election campaign, when Bishop accused NZ Labour of colluding to dig up info on Barnaby's citizenship - "treacherous behaviour" (2017)

She showed the boys she could be trusted to take on the dirty jobs (climate talks, Sep 2014)
But they still didn't trust her (climate talks, Dec 2014)
I dare say she won't miss cleaning up after Peter Dutton (white South African farmers, 2018)
I could outline the context of this cartoon... or we could just erase all the words and leave it at that. Farewell Julie Bishop.

Every man's destiny is a reflection of hands laid upon him or words spoken into his life.

Words have the power, like hands, to hold a man's destiny down or push him forward.

This is the type of absolute denial of facts and reality occupying the #MAGA crown. There is no where in America, not one state, where the average gas price is not higher, generally by between 40-50 cents, according to the AAA, not known for faking basic data for partisanship.
The link to where you can see this for yourself is provided. I just looked at all fifty states. No state has longer cost gas today than a year ago. And for this particular statement to be true, the cost would actually need to be approx $1.30-$1.50 cheaper than current averages.
For many places, that would mean it being down by almost 50% or more from the average price. Wherever this half of gas sale is, I’d love to know. So there are two options here: this person lives in the one place in America where gas prices are at $1.75 or so, or they are wrong.

My time as a journalist taught me to disbelieve two things above all else, that the cheque is in the post and coincidences, with that in mind I have a little something to say about the @oxfamgb story.... 1/14
The actions of those staff members involved are without a doubt disgraceful and deserve full condemnation, however, the way in which the story has been latched onto to provide cover for a full government review of all the government's work with @Oxfam seems, timely. 2/14
It's worth pointing out that there wasn't some massive conspiracy by #Oxfam to cover up the scandal. As soon as the allegations came to light the charity launched a full internal inquiry. 3/14

Good morning Twitter! I move to Australia today! 1 like/retweet of this tweet = 1 thing you (maybe) didn't know about Australian #sharks.
Alright, let's get this party started: First, numbers aren't 100% accurate but anywhere from 170-190 species of #sharks call Australian waters home. That's a lot, seeing as how there are roughly 500-ish species.
According to the Australian Government's Department of Environment and Energy, of those 170-190 species, around 70 are thought to be endemic. Endemic means "native to a specific region or environment and not occurring naturally anywhere else."
