Now, this is what really pisses me off

@The_Nationals have endorsed Kimberly Hone (nee Goldsworthy) as their candidate for Richmond (NSW)

Kimberly is a woman of faith but you wouldn't know it from her bio on Nats' website

Lying by omission
🐝
#auspol #ausvotes #AusVotes2022
Kimberly doesn't mention a word about her deeply-held faith

So, either she's deliberately trying to hide her faith from voters or she's not really a woman of faith

Her social media is all about her faith
Her business is all about her faith

🐝
#auspol #ausvotes #AusVotes2022
I don't have a problem at all with Kimberly Hone being a woman of faith, not at all

But, I have a huge problem with her & the Nats not being honest about it in an election campaign

That's just deceptive behaviour

It's done to deceive voters
🐝
#auspol #ausvotes #AusVotes2022
Kimberly has quite the cyber footprint

Her Insta page bio lists Jesus at No.1, her Nats bio doesn't mention Him....at all. Not once

It doesn't mention her thoughts about Islam either, thankfully, I found a Twitter account she failed to delete
🐝
#auspol #ausvotes #AusVotes2022
Richmond voters have the right to insist on authenticity from candidates who run for public office

Faith is fundamental to Kimberly's life.

I'd like to know why Kimberly Hone & @The_Nationals are being dishonest with the ppl of Richmond???

Hi #ausvotes #AusVotes2022

Let's have a chat about the election

A 🧵

On May 21, 2022 Australians will vote in a federal election. Voting is compulsory for all citizens over 18.

If you're not enrolled, you still have time:
Close of Rolls is Monday 18 April, 2022
🐝
#auspol
Australians will vote for candidates in the House of Representatives (Lower House) and a half Senate election (Upper House)

This is NOT a 'double dissolution' election, so that means we are only voting for half the Senate (38 Senate seats will be contested)
🐝
#auspol #ausvotes
First of all, starting with the House of Reps

All 151 seats will be contested.

The Green Ballot Paper is for the House of Reps

You DO NOT have to vote according to 'How To Votes', these are a guide only.

You can choose which order you put your numbers in

Hey @ipeaAusGov

I've just been double-checking @mattjcan's expenses for Oct-Dec 2021

Senator Canavan has claimed Travel Allowance of $1332.00 for 4 nights 'Parliamentary Duties' 5 Dec 21 to 8 Dec 21

&
Unscheduled Transport $1075.67 4 Dec 21 to 13 Dec 21
🐝
#auspol #insiders
Senator Canavan was in Newcastle on 7 Dec 2021

Same day, there was a Select Committee on Job Security hearing in Newcastle.

Senator Canavan is Deputy Chair of the Job Security Select Committee

But Senator Canavan didn't attend that hearing
🐝
#auspol #insiders
As a Senator from Queensland, and no longer a Minister, Senator Canavan would not have 'Parliamentary Duties' outside of QLD

Except, if he actually attended the Senate Select Job Security hearing, that would constitute 'Parliamentary Duties', but he didn't

Ok media, I'm gonna have a red hot go at y'all

For years we've been saying our 4th Estate is letting us down, it's dysfunctional & corrupt

We are now enduring THE worst govt in Australian history bcuz of YOUR failure. I hold the mainstream media responsible.
🐝
#auspol
Yesterday, @friendlyjordies presented ANOTHER brilliant investigation into Australian politics

AGAIN, it has been ignored by mainstream media

Jordan & Kristo are familiar to Australians bcuz of Barilaro's corrupt use of police to violently arrest them & charge Kristo
🐝
#auspol
ICYMI here's the tale of Kristo's arrest

Mainstream media were happy to report on FJ's arrest but when they do kick-arse journalism the mainstream media is completely silent

Why is that?

Re: Towke

1. If allegations levelled at Towke in 2007 to remove him after winning pre-selection 82-8 (i.e. branch-stacking & misleading the Lib Executive) were true & deserving of losing his pre-selection, why was he allowed to remain a member of the Liberal Party?
🐝
#auspol
2. Why was Towke employed by a Liberal Senator after losing Cook pre-selection for supposedly lying & branch-stacking?

If Libs thought Towke was dirty, then why did CFW employ him? Why did the Liberal Party allow that?

#auspol
3. Article by Phil Coorey June 13, 2009:
Phil discussed on-going tensions in Cook & said sources suggested the candidate should be "somebody who was not hard left and was PALATABLE to the local branch members"

Is "palatable" a euphemism for non-Lebanese? non-Muslim?

FWIW, here's my advice to 'swinging voters'

1. I understand that in the maelstrom of media it is hard to differentiate btwn authenticity & bullshit, especially when some media run protection rackets for some pollies

Basic rule of thumb: mud only sticks if it's true
🐝
#auspol
2. A strong democracy needs a strong Govt & a strong Opposition. A good Opposition will push a Govt to be it's best, it'll hold power to account

3. A strong democracy needs the yin & yang to be it's best, a blend of conservative & progressive voices.
🐝
#auspol
4. The current stewards of conservative ideals in Australia are the problem, not conservative ideals which are integral to a strong democracy. Sadly, the current stewards of conservative ideals in this country are largely corrupt grubs, racists, misogynists & elitists

Ok, I'm gonna weigh-in on the PvO thing

1. I believe PvO's claim about being abused

2. Grace is right, trauma doesn't excuse bad behaviour.

3. This all started as 1 issue, during the escalation there was an admission of abuse from a survivor. We're now dealing with 2 issues
🐝
4. Issue 1 is the original issue of PvO's behaviour for which he deserves no compassion or understanding. He must acknowledge his behaviour & remedy it, it's never too late.

5. Issue 2 is PvO's abuse for which he does deserves compassion and understanding
🐝
6. CSA makes survivors act in ways that are often inexplicable to fellow survivors or ppl who've never been abused, sometimes they act the opposite of how you would expect. Trauma does that. There is no predictable pattern of behaviour for survivors.
