Likewise. He used to be my local member before Fenner was created. I tried to engage him on Labor's appalling treatment of asylum seekers and received anodyne responses from staffers in reply.
Now I just shakes me head while he champions charities instead of making them redundant via raising the support for social services.
You know the ALP is cooked when two of what the Libs would call 'moderates' (Payne and Leigh) are somewhere to the Right of Malcolm Fraser. Kind of highlights the myth of Canberra being a 'progressive' jurisdiction when we vote these people in when there are alternatives like the Greens and genuinely progressive Indies available.
@MarkDeasy yep, I'd written to him a number of times about the Australian women and children that have been abandoned in Syrian camps. The replies were pathetic.

An opportunity just dropped to support the re-election campaign for our local MP here in #canberra
Do you support being represented in parliament by a low-profile, careerist passenger?
- Who fails to represent the values of Canberrans with respect to the #Genocide in #Gaza?
- Applauds the State Capture of #Australia by the #FossilMafia ?
- Sits on her hands while the deliberately terrible #NACCtheNACC is stood up and fails to deliver?
- Does nothing while new coal and gas mines are approved during a #climatecrisis ?
- Attacks the #Greens and progressive Indies for their calls to take meaningful action on the #housingcrisis instead of stupid punts on the stock market like the HAFF?
- Sits idly by while #whistleblowers are persecuted yet Zionist war criminals are protected and feted by our appalling Attorney General?
- Politely averts her gaze from the gifting of our sovereignty to an increasingly rogue United States?
Then do I have an event for you, #auspol !! You can even pay the 'solidarity' price in recognition of the due process and solidarity not afforded by the political wing of the union movement to the #CFMEU after they starred in a Channel 9 TV show.
(More seriously, I'd be genuinely interested to see if anyone turns up to this. Also, I can gob off like this confidentshe only has social media accounts on the terrible platforms (X and Meta) - of course. Can't even tag her on Mastodon. Ugh).
I cannot wait till the era of 'safe seats' is officially behind us.

@MarkDeasy @smitjo I received the same invite. Was going to send my thoughts in return but it only aggravates me, and is pointless. I’ve written before with no response.

Would be curious to know where you get your information. We are talking about Australia going against majority world opinion at the UN, and abstaining on votes (until very recently) calling for a ceasefire. Supporting a regime the leaders of which are subject to arrest warrants by the ICC, and is plausibly committing genocide. Australian complicity is as appalling as it is inexplicable.
'Yes' Australia is effectively 'doing nothing' compared to what it should be doing. Including but not limited to ending the two-way arms trade, recalling our Ambassador, increasing our support for the humanitarian response generally and UNRWA in particular, and ESPECIALLY preventing young, Australian coreligionists from going to the Middle East to participate in war crimes. Mohamed from Lakemba cannot go and fight for ISIL. So why should Joshua from Bondi be permitted to go and fight for JSIL?
Rather than freely letting these potential war criminals come and go, responsible nations are arresting them, prompting travel advice in the Israeli media on how to manage the risk of arrest while abroad. It is sobering stuff, and not remotely Greens initiated political spin, but real world countries taking human rights seriously. Unlike Australia.

2023: Labor calls for a ceasefire.
"Yes' Australia is effectively 'doing nothing'"
Repeating a lie doesn't make it true.
Arms? The US is arming Israel and the Greens have refused to call for the end of all military ties with the US.
Trade? What trade? Soda streams.
Expel ambassadors? Cheap stunt that never works.
The Greens in the US have put Trump back in power now the Oz mob are aiming to put Dutton in the drivers seat. #auspol

Found a Zionist Jordan Shanks.
And noting (not for the first time) the Gaza Genocide is like a Rorschach Test for many. Esp Australian Jews and Labor rusties.
There are those among us who see crimes against humanity, including ethnic cleansing and genocide. And are disgusted at official Aust support for such an odiously violent, rogue regime.
Then there are those reflexively loyal to the Israeli or Labor cause and see Israel 'defending itself' from an unprovoked attack by terrorists. They also see antisemitism in everything, esp criticism of the Israeli State. Accusing most of the UN GA, Ireland, The Pope, uni protesters, anyone supporting international law while holding a Palestinian flag, and of course the Greens of antesemetism.
These robots have internalised the most vile and base of 'politics' in what used to be the progressive and idealistic political wing of the union movement. They get triggered when they see 1.4 million primary votes flow to a Party that does not take money from fossil fuel or weapons companies, takes climate change and the housing crisis seriously, seeks to restore Australian sovereignty, and has been calling out the Israeli apartheid state for decades. While Labor on the other hand has been enthusiastic supporters of the US empire and politely averting its gaze from its military and political support for a regime credibly accused of war crimes and ethnic cleansing.
Because 'politics', of course.

@MarkDeasy @fixatedpersonsunit Zionist? 🤣
The Greens and their rusted-ons have been using Israel’s genocide in Gaza as a prop to win cheap votes for a year. They think they can peel votes away from Labor, when all it’s doing is killing the Greens primary vote and helping the LNP to a win.
Israel doesn’t care what Australia does, and claim otherwise is simplistic and cynical virtue-signalling nonsense. #auspol

Concur.
Labor stans be like, 'sure Albo is enabling genocide, but look how much better his govt is compared to Morrison's on these other things.'
Labor WAY down there, but above LNP, PHON et al.
@MarkDeasy @fixatedpersonsunit
"Albo is enabling genocide".
Are you serious? Check a map. Australia's on the other side of a planet.
Greens belong one notch above the LNP and One Nation for spreading misinformation about genocide to win cheap votes.
