Why doesn’t ABC vote compass have equal focus on Independents?

ABC don’t want a truly apolitical vote compass or they wouldn’t be focussed on only two parties, ignoring the principle of democracy and ignoring the peoples independent voice!

What are they doing to milk that it’s causing death?

Never had a problem drinking milk straight from the cow when I was a kid staying with my grandparents on their cattle station, so what are they doing to this milk which causes death? #FreshMilk

Has Germany banned fracking?

Some memes claim that Germany has banned fracking (1), that sounds great but the memes don’t give any reliable references to substantiate the claim, and a few minutes research shows information from July this year which indicates that the ban is only a proposal, and it’s not very comprehensive (2) (3) (4).
If Germany does ban fracking there will surely be a legal challenge, like what apparently happened in France (5) (6).
I’d love to say “Well done Deutschland” but I’m not going to celebrate yet…
