A glaring conflict of interest that for some reason @AlboMP and the Murdoch media just will not touch.

The secret $18 million promised to the Governor General's pet project and the secret signing in of Scott Morrison to his ministries at the same time.

Hey USA! Aussies absolutely stand with you in your fight against nation-wrecking MAGA-extremists and Murdoch. We're beating them, you will too! Love from Australia 💙❤️🤍

Twitter would not act, the police would not act, so @TamePunk had to use her own platform to call out her abuser Bester for his continuing harassment and threats targeting her. Then, Twitter suspended his account. It's not good enough, survivors shouldn't have to do this.

The Opposition can carry on bleating about witch-hunts and rear view mirrors but the rest of Australia is relieved and - yes - enjoying the fact that they finally have to face consequences for their malign maladministration. #auspol

Best news of the day, other than the enquiry into robodebt

[PRGuy @PRGuy17]

BREAKING: The Murdoch machine is in meltdown after independent MP Zoe Daniel announced a motion for an inquiry into media truth, diversity and ownership, and defamation laws. The Albanese Government is expected to back the motion given its stated commitments to integrity. #auspol

[Cath Kerr @cathzena]

Abhorrent, but not surprised

[Bernard Keane @BernardKeane]

The Murdochs and their media empire pose an existential threat to the US & Australia.

I've been threatened with defamation by Lachlan Murdoch for writing an article.

Here's why I'd write an even stronger article next time

Where are these tens of thousands of overseas workers going to live?
Where is the affordable, convenient housing? What happens to existing workers forced out of rentals by an influx of foreign workers?
What is the impact on housing affordability?
Just asking business to explain!

The grubby spoils of office. The National Party has never been anything more than an extortion racket. https://t.co/HdtLJtDWLP

Morrison has form in grabbing power. Go back to his original preselection for Cook when beaten by Michael Towke 82-8 but replaced Towke as candidate after a nasty smear campaign

[Lucy Turnbull AO @LucyTurnbull_AO]

We should not be gaslit about Morrison’s secret ministry roles. The ghost minister arrangements in 2020/21 are a big deal. They challenge core constitutional conventions, democratic accountabilities, and transparency. Democracy dies in darkness.

[marquelawyers @marquelawyers]

As funny as it all is, Scott’s actions were consistent only with those of a leader who has fascist inclinations. What saved us was that he was a lazy, stupid and incompetent fascist.

[Quentin Dempster @QuentinDempster]

The thunderous reprisal of a cashed up oligarch: James Packer emails alleging he once paid $300k to Peter Costello to “secretly” lobby for Crown dropped (leaked) to Rupert/Lachlan Murdoch’s @australian. Did the casino regulators in Victoria know about this? If not .. why not?

[David Sharaz @SharazDavid]

It’s seems two reporters knew about Scott Morrison’s lie through omission to the Australian public, and rather than report this, sat on the important news to sell a few books. And we wonder why people don’t trust journalists anymore.

[Rex Patrick @MrRexPatrick]

In a responsible system of govt where ministers are responsible to parliament, how improper was it for @ScottMorrisonMP to secretly swear himself in as health, finance & resources minister? How improper was it for those that knew to remain silent? #auspol https://t.co/wnBIzMcC3s

[Doug Cameron @DougCameron51]

Well,well,well!
The former Liberal Treasurer allegedly operated as a lobbyist while chairing the Future Fund. If it’s true he trousered $300,000 of Packers money to covertly influence the NSW govt he must resign from the “ Board of Guardians”of the Future Fund.

[PRGuy @PRGuy17]

Now that Matthew Guy has rebranded as Matt, I forgive Vic Libs for kicking Victorians all through covid, undermining health, taking mafia money, burning $1bn on East-West Link, caving to religious extremists on LGBTIQ, secret donors, trashing Melbourne, etc. Oh wait, no I don't.

But note, he’s not only referring to a religion —his words apply equally to the fanaticism pushing aggressive foreign policy.
