I have had deep and detailed discussions with a former ALP PM and a former Party Leader. Both privately acknowledge that Murdoch is a cancer on democracy. Both refused to do anything about it. The ALP are suffering Stockholm syndrome when it comes to Murdoch. www.crikey.com.au/2023/06/15/n...

It would cost $26 billion a year to give pensioners and income support recipients an extra $100 a week. We give the wealthy over $40 billion a year in rorts and benefits. See what’s wrong? theaimn.net/100-a-week-b...

Not fully understanding this. So, the election worker was tasked with delivering 2 locked cases of votes to the central AEC depot in Barton after the votes had been counted? And they only delivered 1 case, yet nobody at the AEC checked at the time? Also, what was the person hoping to achieve?

The federal Liberal Party handed over sensitive voter information to the Exclusive Brethren as part of a mammoth phone campaign in which members of the secretive Christian religious sect made nearly a million calls on behalf of the LNP in the run-up to the federal election. Thread .. 🧵 #auspol

"The President is selling access and influence to the highest bidder. Qatar isn't giving a $400 million jet out of the goodness of their hearts – they expect something in return. That's how transactional relationships work, and nobody understands transactional relationships better than Trump."

Zoe Daniel is refusing to concede Goldstein to Tim Wilson. Good and if I were her I would demand a full recount. Amazing that 200+ votes in Kooyong were 'accidentally' put in the Liberal pile on election night. And let's face it, how good would it be to wipe the smile off Tim's face! #auspol
