Yet more questions for NACC Commissioner Brereton to answer after recusing himself from 6 investigations.

I'd like to know if he's recused himself from deliberations or just decision making.

It is fucking disgraceful that after 9 years of LNP Goverment, who MO was corruption and grift.

They haven’t found any corruption.

It defies reality and a will for better Government, Governance, transparency, value, & justice

Fucking unbelievable.

🙄🙄🙄

The duopoly are a disgrace.

A second #RobodebtSix has hit the #NACC

i'd like to know why he's still there

johnnol1.bsky.social•4 days ago

Brereton is acting with arrogant god like behaviour precisely because he can, he has supreme powers that would take a majority vote from a combined sitting of both houses to remove him, pigs will fly before that happens. He is a 🖕 to us from Albanese, Dutton and Dreyfus.

gaz254.bsky.social•4 days ago

Needs to stand aside permanently. Time for a new head.

parahandie.bsky.social•4 days ago

Is the NACC's Brereton as honest as Sofronoff?

qandainpublic.bsky.social•4 days ago

Well the NACC clearly covered up his "office misconduct" to a billion $ scam where as Sofronoff was exposed.

scorpiogcoast.bsky.social•4 days ago

“Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said he had confidence in Mr Brereton and the NACC, but declined to comment on specifics.”

Must be the only person in the country who does have confidence in Brereton and the NACC….

colonialgirl.bsky.social•4 days ago

The draft NACC bill was great. Then LibLab watered it down, put a compromised person in charge, and continued to attack whistleblowers, making corruption much easier to get away with.

scorpiogcoast.bsky.social•4 days ago

Yes the duopoly protecting themselves again.

colonialgirl.bsky.social•4 days ago

Their job is representing us, the shady fuckers 😠

ericbanana.bsky.social•4 days ago

WTF is the point of a corruption commissioner who needs to recuse himself because he may have a conflict of interest in the said corruption.

What fucking world do I live in.

This waste of space is no Elliot Ness is he.

If he has to recuse himself, he is the wrong person for the role.

geewhizzoxley.bsky.social•4 days ago

OMG. Brereton, just resign, mate. You seem to know al lot of dodgy people & are now looking like one yourself. Fall on your sword.

maranoagirl.bsky.social•4 days ago

Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaatttttttttttte.

letmebeseen.bsky.social•4 days ago

Get his resignation

stuart8.bsky.social•4 days ago

Does he still get paid after recusing himself? Perhaps since he himself appears to know that he shouldn't be in the job then he could do the right thing and resign completely!

milennialzero.bsky.social•4 days ago

He has recused himself from doing any work. But not from collecting his pay check.

terry1956.bsky.social•3 days ago

Brereton should resign or be Sacked, in fact he needs to be investigated for corruption

ultraswim.bsky.social•4 days ago

He needs to resign or be sacked

jaymo31415.bsky.social•3 days ago

Watch them close parliament early to prevent this proceeding

maranoagirl.bsky.social•4 days ago

We'd love to find out that, David.

jha444.bsky.social•4 days ago

Brereton needs to resign.

We need transparency and public hearings from the NACC

peggysanders.bsky.social•4 days ago

“The Governor-General appoints the NACC Inspector, by written instrument, on the Attorney-General’s recommendation.
Before making a recommendation to the Governor-General, the Attorney-General must seek the approval of the Parliamentary Joint Committee on the NACC.”

denyer2.bsky.social•4 days ago

What is the point of having a head of the NACC, that continually has recuse himself from investigations?
Brereton needs to be replaced! #auspol

oldwhitebeard49.bsky.social•4 days ago

History says he does not understand the concept of recusal.

dushka66.bsky.social•4 days ago

Remembering fondly the darling Mrs Salt warning us on Brereton’s appointment coupla years ago not to expect much.

Jeez Ronni, I wasn’t expecting much but all this is a bit too much! 😘
#auspol #nacc

pepperpots4477.bsky.social•4 days ago

I think he needs to recuse himself right out the door. How can he possibly do the job he’s been given if he has so many conflicts of interest? Which isn’t an indictment on him as a person - I don’t know him at all - it just means he’s the wrong person for that job.

johnnicolay.bsky.social•4 days ago

Surely it’s time to say publicly that his position is untenable and he should resign to protect the institution (such as it is).

random-aussie-nerd.bsky.social•4 days ago

I'd like o know if he's the right person for the job if he has such relationships with so many people who come before the NACC...

gordonkerry.bsky.social•4 days ago

It’s really embarrassing.

miggieblue.bsky.social•4 days ago

He should be recuse from both deliberations & decisions.

In fact he should resign!

0b5essed.bsky.social•4 days ago

Ignoring everything else for a moment, how can someone with so many conflicts of interest be a suitable NACC Commissioner?

bwanatern.bsky.social•4 days ago

A great and very basic question!

namastecanasta.bsky.social•4 days ago

Everyone who works in the NACC will understand without any guidance whatsoever, what the findings must be. Given his conduct throughout the Robodebt farce Brereton’s presence in the organisation in any capacity is the problem. He must go and be replaced with someone else we can have faith in

pestuman.bsky.social•3 days ago

Brereton mixes with some very dubious people it would seem. Has the 🦊 been given the chicken house to guard? The lunatics have taken over the asylum, so why not?

geoff-hanmer.bsky.social•4 days ago

I think it’s about time Brereton recused himself from his employment. He’s been reliably hopeless.

edenarachnelatro.bsky.social•4 days ago

Or even if we’re getting value for money with a Commissioner who has to recuse himself so frequently.

castlebar13.bsky.social•4 days ago

Has he recused himself from breaking into a sweat?

alhwranyfamily.bsky.social•4 days ago

Hello, I am Wassim. We are under bombardment now, death is not far from us, the crossing is closed, there is no safety and no food. Please help us and donate to us 😭🙏💔

davidpocock.bsky.social•4 days ago

Based on the Robodebt experience, it's difficult to have much confidence that all 6 have been handled appropriately.

This further undermines already weak public confidence in the leadership of what should be an integrity institution beyond reproach.

barrysteeleau.bsky.social•4 days ago

That any have been

againstcorruption.bsky.social•4 days ago

As long as Brereton personally pays for all the independent assessments and investigations we have to now undertake because of this apparent conflict of interest

owrlfs.bsky.social•4 days ago

Yes.

ungala.bsky.social•4 days ago

Recuse his backside out and his cronies that enabled him

mosmanresources.bsky.social•4 days ago

Whenever both parties of our political duopoly vote together as they did for example with NACC and electoral funding it is the parties who win and the Australian people who lose. Independents need control of the lower house to stop this perversion of our democracy.

ourspecialsauce.bsky.social•4 days ago

Unimportant. Please work to end immigration.

kayawanu.bsky.social•4 days ago

Brereton has to go.

robrichards.bsky.social•4 days ago

Well beyond being a farce and a facade.

billfenton.bsky.social•4 days ago

We can have the same amount of faith in Brereton as we have in the USA to deliver the AUKUS subs. i.e. Fuckall

cathlovercath.bsky.social•4 days ago

One way or another he has to go.
The arrogance and hubris displayed last time he was before the Senate Committee showed who he is and why he’s totally unsuited to the position.
