Trump has been relying on US allies to be intimidated into silence, and not stand up for each other. 🇩🇰 PM Mette Fredriksen was blindsided over Greenland but is now standing up to Trump. So are all the 🇨🇦 Canadian leaders. Other countries need to do the same - together and fast.

Today, the United States launched a trade war against Canada: their closest partner and ally — their closest friend. Canadians are reasonable, but we will not back down from a fight. Not when our country is at stake.

Will PM Albanese speak this plainly when Trump whacks tariffs on Australia’s aluminum exports? Or will it just be weasel words… #auspol #Auspol2025

Right boy wonder. And what should Australia do when Trump comes gunning for Australia’s agriculture exports, our social media regulation, our universities, and our pharmaceutical benefits scheme. Just take it lying down?

Great to be able to rejoin the Dr Monique Ryan MP campaign after months away! Doorknocking in the rain and happy to have been asked to install 10 yard signs as a result! Kooyong includes Toorak and Malvern now and could come down to a couple hundred votes. Time to volunteer! #auspol

Consistently solid turnouts. @DebLeonard already has extremely strong support in the south of her electorate, and her support in the north is looking increasingly solid. Keep an eye on Monash. This could be one seat that decides the 48th parliament.

A Melbourne surgeon has admitted tearing down the election sign before tutoring men in how to “bury the body”, outraging anti-violence campaigners and politicians. theage.com.au/politics/victo…

This morning Amelia Hamer tried to steal every bit of spot for a sign at Malvern Prepoll. In 2022, we had a respectful relationship with Josh Frydenberg’s team to limit signs and volunteers. This behaviour is childish, petty, and unbecoming for someone seeking office #auspol

Wow, I thought I was just capturing an odd Liberal campaigning tactic on Glenferrie Road. Turns out it was the Exclusive Brethren - a hardline religious evangelical sect - out campaigning for Amelia Hamer. What's going on?

A significant reduction in Liberal volunteers for Amelia Hamer today after religious sect / cult members from the Exclusive Brethren were told to stay away. I guess the religious infiltration wasn’t a great look once the public found out?

Day 2 of ignoring council orders at Kew pre-poll, and the Liberals have escalated - they’ve sent in Liberals in blazers to show they mean business. Council officers are snapping pics. Hope the Liberals have budgeted for fines. Those fossil fuel donations will come in handy.

Just before the last election, Scott Morrison snuck into Kooyong - no invite, no photo with Frydenberg. Tonight, Dutton does the same, meeting Hamer behind closed doors. They want Kooyong's vote, but won’t face Kooyong. Cowardly. Pathetic.
