Bob Carr suing Aotearoa New Zealand’s Deputy PM Winston Peters is for defamation is both funny, and kinda cool on Bob’s part.
Winston does need consequences for the cooked rhetoric his vocabulary has turned into.

There are Palestinian children starving.
There are Israeli children with parents who were forcibly separated from them and are being held hostage.
Any person with influence - politician or otherwise - who isn’t trying to reverse both of those situations are pathetic failures.

Violence against women is a national issue, and we are approaching it with national unity. And today National Cabinet agreed to new actions to prevent it.
05:26 AM - May 01, 2024
Some good things in here, but there isn’t enough urgency coming from our elected officials.
Hopefully the State and Territory governments will announced changes to laws that they over see on their level of government.

The collective history of the subjugation, enslavement, r*pe, and murder of women by men must be considered by far the largest, longest-lasting, and most destructive atrocity in human history. It is long past time to recognize and address it as such.

On 28 April, 1996 at Port Arthur, 35 lives were stolen in the worst mass shooting in our nation’s history, an atrocity seared in our collective memory.
Just as the grief of those who lost loved ones has not faded with time, the devastation of Port Arthur still resonates with all Australians.

“Yeah, it’s very sad, but…” from Biden supporting Democrats is wearing thin.
I don’t want him to lose, because if he does it’s a Trump presidency and the world can’t afford that - on climate action alone (plus everything else) - but Biden isn’t doing enough to save Gazan lives.

An awful event.
And the best policy enacted by John Howard.
Ironically, for a man who has done damage that I would argue Australia still hasn’t recovered from societally (demonising immigrants and refugees, the poor, and diversity) and economically (our housing crisis started because of his him).

The grace he’s carried himself in the face of racism from prominent figures like Lee Anderson, still not called out by Rishi Sunak, is enough for me to like him on its own.
His social housing plans are good too.

Surely the next National Cabinet meeting HAS to be about stomping down on male violence against women.
About getting the Premiers and Chief Ministers to come up with uniform, nationwide reform on support for women, and ways to prevent to violence in the first place.

This is a good statement.
But what is the plan for your government to do better?
Stronger legal punishment for perpetrators?
A requirement to investigate if a woman comes forward with concerns of stalking or violence, not laughing them out of the police station?
