1625615732762644481 | .@abcmelbourne @alimoore004 No we don’t have to open up new fossil gas fields to meet Australia’s energy needs - just don’t export as much gas (like in WA). @SmartEnergyCncl @EnviroVic @WWF_Australia #BigPolluterProgram #auspol https://t.co/Ckme52LSY5 | 30 |
1624861577169231872 | I’ll be co-hosting The Conversation Hour with @RichelleHunt on @abcmelbourne today at 11am — talking about prevention, the planned national CDC and a new report from @GrattanInst. Tune in with 774! | 14 |
1625656344350183424 | So he's innocent until proven guilty right? Pity the same wasn't applicable 4 Clarko/Fagan. What say you @AndyMaherDFA @Robbo_heraldsun @theage @abcmelbourne The media absolutely guilty of double standards & huge societal bias. The @AFLcomau racism Probe has zero credibility now. https://t.co/GsHlT7l46k | 12 |
1626348363229843456 | FFS @abcnews Have your people study the tapes of Jon Faine, Emma Alberici, Barry Cassidy, Kerry O’brian. Make yourself relevant again. Stop broadcasting beige. #insiders @abcmelbourne #RNbreakfast #AusPol | 10 |
1624860732419616768 | #abcnews @abcmelbourne @RadioNational framing of Labor’s lifting of temp protection visas is clearly written by the IPA-LNP. Mouthing off #MurdochGutterMedia’s war on refugees, stoking racism for LNP votes, kicking Albo’s govt…is giving me PTSD. #auspol #ThisIsNotJournalism | 9 |
1624680594016980993 | A very clear message from an Iranian protester in Melbourne: “Do not provide billions to the regime by JCPOA deal.” @PahlaviReza #IranRevoIution @abcmelbourne @ABC @Channel7 https://t.co/Ahy3iZD7GO | 9 |
1625283925559099392 | Have you ever been concussed? I have, just once as a kid. It was the weirdest feeling. Now we know about the seriousness of concussions and the link with CTE - but how serious are we taking it in sport? Hear @alanpearcephd on @abcmelbourne on the Convo Hour now. @RichelleHunt | 7 |
1626004022510649344 | On this morning's Map of Melbourne on @abcmelbourne we spoke about traffic in Kalkallo now school's gone back - this pic is at 7AM! It's taking up to an HOUR to get out of the estate. https://t.co/69DZD1yHwE | 7 |
1624974698902872065 | #DefundTheABC They are nothing but a lying corrupt racist media organisation that hates Australia & it’s Citizens..it allows this garbage to go to air without questioning the lies told by this man @ABCthedrum #TheDrum @abcnews @QandA #qanda @abcmelbourne @abcsydney https://t.co/Jwox9ezLdW | 6 |

1626114769051873283 | @margaretpaul @abcmelbourne Very discouraging, but not surprising. The thing is, almost everyone involved in the planning process can predict this is exactly what will happen when you continue to build heavily car dependent communities with little public transit. They keep coming. | 51 |
1626174472272384001 | @margaretpaul @tonybmorton @abcmelbourne How is it legal for Stockland to build such a large estate with only one entrance? I can see at least 4 potential internal connections to existing roads. It’s 8km from an internal street to the Subway on the Hume! That’s some American-level dysfunction. https://t.co/CrEPrPHbDX | 47 |
1627463580227612672 | I loved this chat with @annaspargoryan and if you've ever cried at work perhaps you'll love it too. @abcmelbourne https://t.co/ROaWnRNRm8 | 46 |
1626364076787138560 | i was just on @abcmelbourne chatting about Poker Face, and I'm thrilled by how many people called in saying they love the monster of the week format... bring it back I say, let's have a new x-files boom | 43 |
