Another week, another mediocre white man whinging about being “cancelled” in his syndicated newspaper column, tv show and radio show. Wailing that women of any colour and minorities get the chance to be astronauts and go to moon as is they have taken his place.

A friend & trans blak man is in urgent need of life saving care for anorexia, they have been turned away from the public system for being “too sick”, their BMI is too low & time is running out. They could die. Please give anything you can to help ♥️💛🖤

Thank you, esteemed gentlemen, for your rational and objective analysis of how migrants should be forced to pay a penalty for being migrants and just wanting to see their parents and family.

BREAKING Steve Price rapidly becoming Australia’s biggest boomer whiner.

Aiming to put a person of colour or woman on the moon, having a netballer help select an AFL coach, ignoring colonial history, gender neutral racing; Steve Price is over it all. bit.ly/3q6Y23g

BREAKING: We have filed an emergency court application to order the NSW Government to stop making false and misleading statements about the NSW and Sydney Trains dispute. This comes after multiple reports that train staff have been abused and threatened over strikes. Thread🧵

Sydney drivers are the worst. I’m half way across a pedestrian crossing and some Karen in a jeep is like nah I’m driving here. Surry Hills you are wild today.

3 problems with new trains: #1 Guard doors automatically lock, preventing guards from assisting passengers on entry and departure #2 CCTV blind spot below 1.1 metres. Children, prams, etc. are in this blind spot #3 CCTV screens are in drivers line of sight when driving

If Dom thinks that playing hardball with safety makes people think he’s a great leader, then he’s more of an idiot than I thought. FWC aren’t going to help you out on this one bud. You’re making things worse. Pay people fair wages, across all the critical sectors. Not 🚀 science
We are kicking off industrial action today. All we're asking for is a fair pay rise, some guarantee of career progression for younger journos and a floor for freelance rates while our company makes record profits off our work.

On Sunday the NSW Government wrote to rail workers saying the would agree to safety concerns and would send a signed commitment. They paraded this around media. It's three days later. No signed commitment has been sent. The NSW Government is playing everyone.

Twenty years of no industrial action produced foreign built substandard trains, falling safety outcomes and shrinking wages. A world class city has world class safety, world class wages and respect for the people who make it work.

1/ ‘In 2015, the NSW Government ordered the New Intercity Fleet. They wanted them to be “Driver Only” trains. This meant they’d be operated by 1 person with no guard. Instead, the CCTV systems would be used to ensure the safety of the vehicle’s passengers.’

Premier Perrottet offered rail workers an $18,000 bonus in exchange for dropping safety concerns. Workers turned it down. But the commentators say it's all about self-interest and money?

Strikes are designed to be inconvenient. It’s hilarious watching young lib muppets et all suddenly care about public transport when it fits their fantasy. Solidarity with workers who have had our backs through a pandemic even if it’s hard.
