The big, burly tradie pulls his ute off busy Canberra - Queanbeyan road, hazards flashing. Steps into middle of the thoroughfare, halting traffic. Impatient drivers: "mate, what!"
Tradie gently collects ittle turtle who'd been contemplating playing chicken.

Premier tries it on this morning on @2GB873 shifting blame again.

He complained the Upper House is at fault for the govt not being able to get on with the business it was elected to do.

Their Leaders in the Legislative Council has now been removed again for a record 14 days.

[NicholeOverall MLC @NicholeOverall]

And first order of the day:
will the Leader of the Government finally provide the documents that have officially been called for - or will she again be in contravention of the scrutiny measures of the Upper House?

The Greens, @TheAusInstitute, @AlanKohler, @SaulEslake and many others have argued that tax concessions have had large effects on housing prices.
They should now be forecasting large reductions in house prices.
This is a test of their credibility. 1/2

Our #UpperHouse committee has tabled its report into the Local Small Commitments Allocation program, examining how the pre‑election grants scheme was designed and administered, and raising concerns about the use of public funds and grant decision‑making.

“The Premier of Newcastle Sydney and Wollongong (NSW) has today issued a stirring defence to speculation he may have done the dodgy on some donations.”

@marketingandrew Precisely.
And if there’s nothing to hide, then just present the documents as required.

[NicholeOverall MLC @NicholeOverall]

It’s not good enough for Labor to try to decide which rules it will and won’t follow.

These processes are there for a reason - scrutiny and transparency.

[NicholeOverall MLC @NicholeOverall]

We’re all still traumatised by COVID-19 but biological/biosecurity threats remain real and present - as a cruise ship off West Africa this week has shown.

Proactive not reactive is key.

Farmers are fighting back against a push that could force them to hand over their land for a project that will form part of the Allan government’s renewable energy transition. > https://t.co/fXzSkv8zNm

@marketingandrew Interesting debating it too!

🚨

Good news! The NSW Upper House has just passed a bill to lift the ban on uranium mining in NSW. This is a historic day.

The bill now goes to the Lower House which means we need Premier Minns to speak to his mate, the South Australian Peter Malinauskas ... and the SA premier will tell him how great uranium mining has been SA for decades.
