The hand-wringing today by the Oz Govt and others is hypocrisy on steroids. They’re the very same people condemning the whistleblowers, lawyers and journalists revealing war crimes etc, eg Julian Assange, Witness K & Bernard Collaery, ADF lawyers and the ABC #auspol#freeassange
Just tabled Australia’s biggest e-petition, on the need for media diversity & accuracy. Initiated by @MrKRudd, it has 501,876 signatories, including @TurnbullMalcolm. A healthy media isn’t a luxury - it’s fundamental to a strong democracy https://t.co/COA6dgACb4 #auspol

Theo was Chloe & my lovely neighbour for a decade. Theo's family looked for him for 5 days but St Basil's aged care & the fed govt could tell them nothing. On Sat they were told Theo was dead. They never got to say goodbye. COVID is revealing a lot: Fed aged care is dysfunctional

Today Tim Smith blocked 2 doctors @drvyom@drpete00 on twitter for simply fact checking his tweets and questioning his actions.
I ask everyone to think of this,
