You hit the nail on the head. The anti-protest law was passed to protect business, at the expense of human rights https://www.hrlc.org.au/news/new-western-australian-bill-threatens-protest-rights

I started out with dokuwiki but it unexpectedly stopped working. I caved and used the default wordpress. Wordpress isn't actually popular, it's just the default provided by most ISP.

One day, he may type something in the search bar and miss you. No guarantees, though. Solo time gives space to work out what makes you happy. π€ new hobby. New friends. New interest. Self care. Counselling. Metamorphosis. New butterfly π¦ β¨οΈ

Our record on international relations isn't squeaky. Papua is basically an Australian mine. We essentially invaded east Timor. We routinely ignore obligations to less fortunate island nations. Our indigenous situation is a source of international shame.
Good passport though.

That is very insightful. obviously if the greens had more power, they would also end up having to strike more deals to get their bills passed. I understand that some compromise is how party politics works. Very sad that senator Payman had to go.
Still allowed to voice my dissent over issues that bother me. The anti-protest laws suck. In WA the fines are $15,000 for disrupting normal activity. 'Republican' is a confusing word. the anti-protest laws are downright Cromwellian

I love most things about the labor party, but the anti-protest laws passed on their watch. The law is undemocratic and does not represent my rights as a worker. Democracy under attack https://www.hrlc.org.au/news/2024/07/03/protest-peril
@Zagorath @unionagainstdhmo
Allow me to focus on the anti-protest law.
How did that arise from the workers?
Isn't industrial action a fotrm of protest?
@unionagainstdhmo
I was being sarcastic. I meant republican in the American sense of being reactionary. The Labor party seems compromised by the mining lobby.

Municipal councils in Broome, Karratha, Geraldton and Carnarvon held closed meetings to promise various amounts in millions of dollars toward continued Qantas services during lockdown. In Geraldton, the amount was three hundred dollars for every member of the population, even though only about ten percent are ever likely to use it. No consultation. Appalling plutocratic governance. Thank goodness for road coaches.
