Rejection of Indigenous advisory council a kick in the guts by a gutless and witless Turnbull and cabinet.

Poor Colin Barnett. We thought he was better than this — a man of principle. Genuine Liberals must be aghast.

Great news, go Julia! https://t.co/lNqCuYSJDp

No doubt about that 'so-called' Judge Robart. He's one really bad hombre. But don't worry, he'll be fired.

Ditch the deal Malcolm. This volatile POTUS has belittled you and the nation. Find another solution.

Congrats to @julialawrinson on Before You Forget hitting the bookshops. A great read and an important book on early onset Alzheimer's.

Like many others, I was delighted when Turnbull ousted Abbott. Now I'm embarrassed that he's our Prime Minister.

[Lawrence Apps @appsl]

Dear PM, the issue of Nauru and other detained asylum seekers surely warrants a Royal Commission.

Rally and free concert this Sunday (1/9) at Freo Arts Centre at 2pm to oppose forced amalgamation of Fremantle with Melville.

CatsVDockers. It would be great if the Fox commentators actually called the game. I've switched off the commentary. Bliss!

Now we're hearing the achievements of the Gillard government: the economy, education, disability, etc: great PM, great Aussie, great woman.

[Lawrence Apps @appsl]

Interesting that mainstream media commentators have failed to comment on the singular reason for Gillard's downfall: the media. Onya Rupert.

@MignonShardlow What's this protected? Will you let me in?

[Lawrence Apps @appsl]

@1CathyJ @croakeyblog And hello to you. Yes, I guess Sweet's turned out okay. And looks like you've been a busy person as well. Best wishes.

Top health journo and Croaky editor Melissa Sweet mentioned in West Australian after Perth visit to talk about social media in health care.

[Lawrence Apps @appsl]

Excellent letters in The West Australian today taking the paper to task over yesterday's shallow editorial on Julian Assange.

[Lawrence Apps @appsl]

Doug Cameron (Q&A/news) not helping Assange's cause by referring to charges against him when there is none. ABC should clarify.

[Lawrence Apps @appsl]

Strange editorial in The West Australian today on Assange. Shallow research, flawed arguments.

Great effort a recipe for success http://t.co/h6inclYd via @fremantle_fc
