@HeyneKathy@paulinehollywoo@christianlexus Morrison’s emphasis is heavily on the public service’s delivery role, which he wants substantially improved. He sees its advisory role primarily in terms of how best to implement an agenda set by the government.
@SebFurlong@PRGuy17 Interestingly, it appeared that Australian TGA rescinded its ban on Ivermectin a couple of days after they made it. There was no media on that but there was when it was made. I wrote and asked for clarification. Crickets
@jobsts@GrogsGamut Wasn’t 2019 all about the silent majority? Voting for Izzy Falous to have right to tell the gays they were going to hell on social media, not caring at all that the rights of public servants to have an opinion about government policy had been squashed by the High Court
@lukehgomes@GrogsGamut The only “journalist” I know who is not afraid to speak out is Friendly Jordies. And his house got firebombed. We’ve got a long way to go before we can expect this to be anything more than idealist sermonising typical of Australian media.
@Medicayy And we as a Nation respond like sheep from one outrage to the next, and then go back to barracking for our chosen political team. It’s hard to know what the solution is but I think deconstructing the duopoly that is the media is a great start. Murdoch is a cancer.
@Medicayy Yet the media whip up a shit storm about people with more than $3 million in super having to pay more tax. Or gas companies having to cap their price so that Australians have access to their own energy.
@Medicayy Individual welfare recipients are hounded, humiliated and impoverished while corporate welfare and white collar crime goes through the roof. Harvey Norman gets overpaid millions in Jobkeeper and doesn’t have to pay it back. Resource companies pay zero tax.
