Nup, this is not on!!! The nerve of this woman to tell South Australians to go back to their own country when she doesn’t even live in this state!!!
Everyone in our state deserves to feel safe in the community. If you choose to be abusive, you should be publicly called out for your revolting behaviour.
Let’s continue to support local businesses and treat all workers with respect.
EXCLUSIVE: A Michelin-selected North Adelaide bistro is fuming after a diner ran up a hefty bill and eventually left without paying. The woman turned her aggression towards staff who claim she yelled they do not belong in Australia. @mjstanley7

#Insiders oh look back to another LNP talking point on EV's and home batteries. Oooh @David_Speers has a table! Suddenly Speers is interested in means testing. Not interested when pointed out to him these programs have been changed. Speers frankly bullying the Minister.

Segal is at it again, demanding to police the universities, the ABC and SBS. She is an arrogant menace .

The excellent Ms Salt comprehensively demolishes Segal’s latest farrago of wild assertions, baseless assumptions and plain, old-fashioned, right wing flab-dabbery.
I've been reading through this, which was released today, and let me tell you - it is a hot mess.
Jillian Segal (well let's face it, the taxpayer-funded team who work for her) has delivered a line of limited thinking that aims to insert itself into every aspect of Australian life - with no peer review, or any form of independent assessment. We are expected to simply take the Antisemitism Envoy at their word and shut up.
As usual, it presents as a wandering discourse of unevidenced claims, taking particular aim at the increasing dissatisfaction with Israel by most of the western world and hiding it within the cloak of 'antisemitism' - a word tossed about freely throughout the document, a word that underwrites the document and all it's radical thought-policing, but a word that they fail to provide with any concrete definition or cohesive meaning.

The fact Jillian Segal waited til after her Senate appearance this week before releasing an updated report with further crackdown measures on Universities and public freedoms, after already being caught lying at the antisemitism RC, is an absolute disgrace and she must be sacked.

I feel more people should be discussing Pauline Hanson suing over a satirical song about her back in 1997 and 2003.
@PPantsdown (Simon Hunt) released a song, 'I'm A Backdoor Man' that arranged Hanson soundbites to have her saying . . . 'I'm very proud that I'm not natural. I'm a backdoor man for the Ku Klux Klan' and 'I'm a very caring potato', among other words of wisdom.
Interestingly, Hanson's so-called support of satire escaped her and through her lawyers, she lodged defamation proceedings in the QLD courts, arguing the satire was injurious and defamatory and the lyrics and audio imputations falsely portrayed her as:
• a homosexual, a transvestite/man, or a prostitute
• engaging in unnatural sexual practices or pedophilia
• associating with the Ku Klux Klan
• being a subhuman or a "caring potato"
(please try to read that with a straight face)
The proceedings resulted in the granting of an injunction in Pauline Hanson's favour restraining the continued publication of the satirical material.
After remaining legally dormant for roughly five years, Hanson reactivated the existing defamation case in the Supreme Court of Queensland in mid-2003. Legal analysts and media noted that Hanson revived the lawsuit specifically around the same time she was facing high-profile criminal charges and prison time for electoral fraud.
Anywhoo, it seems Pauline Hanson and her team of bald men are very happy to cruelly and sadistically mock others, especially women with disabilities, but when it comes to mocking Pauline, that so-called sense of humour suddenly vaporises.

The ABC is taking legal action against One Nation for its use of the Bluey character.
Take note, cookers, trolls and cultists.
Bluey is the property of @ABCaustralia
One Nation has stole ABC’s property.
I congratulate @ABCaustralia for taking this action and showing some fucking balls and standing up to Hanson.

The price of electricity in Victoria’s state grid was lower than every other major economy for the first nine months of 2026, according to Rystad Energy.
This will be devastating news for those who insist the exact opposite is happening.

Absolute fire here from Monique Ryan:
“She is a negative force in Australian politics.”
For decades Pauline Hanson has been platformed and legitimised despite the racism, bigotry and division.
If you’re going to give her the platform and the reach, then hold her to account.

Very good reporting. BUT what is missing is an honest look at how febrile things became during and post-COVID pandemic and the destruction of the social contract. A hostile media and desperate political parties have so much to answer for abc.net.au/news/2026-10-24/v…
