Pauline Hanson’s One Nation has called Andrew Hastie, a decorated three-tour Afghanistan veteran, a traitor and a gutless maggot over a cartoon video, and Hanson refuses to walk it back. Labor has restarted pork barrelling in earnest, half a billion so far by Michael Pascoe’s count. The Senate voted down a Greens bill to stop Australian charities funding the IDF and illegal West Bank settlements, with Bridget McKenzie calling Mehreen Faruqi’s comments antisemitic. The Zionist Federation of Australia has dropped its two-year case against Mary Kostakidis. #auspol #apple #ai
