[Former UN Special Rapporteur FoAA rights @cvoule]

#Australia - I am alarmed at #NSW court's prison term against #ClimateProtester 𝗗𝗲𝗮𝗻𝗻𝗮 𝗖𝗼𝗰𝗼 and refusal to grant bail until a March 2023 appeal hearing. Peaceful protesters should never be criminalised or imprisoned.👇🏽

These are the people who are still subservient to Morrison.
Theses are the people who support Australian's being lied to, being misled, having their democracy undermined.
The support the #LiarFromTheShire

They voted no to censure.

[The Late Show @colbertlateshow]

It’s nice to see Republicans take the House without any zip ties.

[Kevin Rudd @MrKRudd]

Great account of how the Murdoch media uses conspiracy theorists to campaign against democratically elected governments they want to get rid of. Their personal campaign against Premier Dan Andrews over what was a very serious accident is disgusting. https://t.co/IALknbcxHk

[THE POPE…C R A W! ..not craw. 😇 @CharlesSzulc]

I hope Albo backs the Zoe Daniel push to hold an inquiry into media diversity. Don’t know about you? ….but I’m fed up with listening to Murdoch propaganda on our ABC, …well & truely! 😇😇😇

[Mark Dickenson @bugwannostra]

Barnaby Joyce racked up $675K in expenses in 3 weeks as drought envoy. He says he sent texts to PM Scott Morrison who blocks FOI requests & refuses to release phone records.
Retweet if you want a forensic audit & a police investigation with all documents made public. #auspol ICAC

[Samantha Maiden @samanthamaiden]

Peter Dutton is on radio suggesting the non-disclosure clause in Rachelle Miller payout was not included by Labor deliberately. That’s untrue. My understanding is that was agreed in March with Dept Finance under previous government @PeterDutton_MP

[rebes @real65]

Do you think Daisy Pearce would be commentating AFL if she had an affair, violently beat her husband, walked out on him and their twin babies, glassed another partner, was arrested while OS and then had a bag of white powder fall out of her pocket. No? So why should Wayne Carey?

[PRGuy @PRGuy17]

Anyone else struggling to take Victorian media seriously on their faux outrage over the timing of a report while they intentionally turn a blind eye to explosive branch stacking coordinated by extremists which is driving senior members out of the Victorian Liberal Party? #auspol

[Nelson Havi SC @NelsonHavi]

Wafula Chebukati has been vindicated. He remains the hero who prevented the subversion of the will of the People of Kenya expressed through the ballot. Well done Kenyans. Congratulations once more, President Dr William Ruto. Serve with distinction. It is the People’s will.

[Bob Carr @bobjcarr]

Take it from me: the Governor General’s role in getting $18m from Morrison for a charity without a record, office or program and no competitive bid is set to be the most controversial vice regal indulgence since Kerr’s dismissal of Whitlam. https://t.co/5KMxzUMmdx

[Ronni🧂Salt-WhoWroteGunnawahYeahThatOne @RonniSalt]

That's correct

Australians don't realise how serious this is

Scott Morrison has regulated that the GG's pet project will receive $4 million - every year!

There is no end date in the document

So it could cost taxpayers $40 million, $80 million - nobody knows

#GGGate #Insiders

[Dr Monique Ryan MP @Mon4Kooyong]

Today, I lodged notice of a motion to disallow the Morrison govt’s mysterious $18m ‘special grant’ for a non-operational leadership program, co-signed by @WilkieMP

There is insufficient evidence supporting this peculiar grant.

It must be disallowed and reviewed with rigour.

[PRGuy @PRGuy17]

Hi @3AWNeilMitchell, I noticed you went quiet, so I'll ask again: why is Channel 9 boycotting the bombshell Pentecostal Victorian Liberals branch stacking story in the middle of an election campaign — don't Victorians deserve to know the facts? Ball's in your court. #auspol

[PRGuy @PRGuy17]

Peter Dutton has been left red faced after posting a video of a violent demonstration to slam “union thugs” — awkwardly, the video is of the attack on CFMEU offices by far-right cookers. It is unclear if Mr Dutton is aware of the embarrassing mistake. #auspol

[Jay Rosen @jayrosen_nyu]

He tried to introduce one degree of complexity about "taking sides," just one. But it was too much for CNN executives. He had to go. There can be only one continuum: left to right, with the journalist in the middle. It's not their thinking so much as their prevention of thought.

[Georgie Dent @georgiedent]

This thread asks a multitude of valid questions that the Australian public deserves to have answered.

An explanation for the ‘no pre-existing relationship’ comments - despite a documented relationship - in Senate Estimates at the very least.

Thank you @RonniSalt & @jommy_tee

[Kevin Rudd @MrKRudd]

Crikey is outgunned. If Murdoch's wealth enables him to overwhelm Crikey’s legal defence, it would have chilling consequences for free speech. It's why I have just donated to the @crikey_news Defence Fund, and I encourage others to support them as well. https://t.co/beepJWXpES

[The Shot @shot_au]

Okay, so at the suggestion of a wise old person, we’ve upped the price of the Lachlan Murdoch stickers to $10, and we’re going to send the profits to the Crikey legal fund.

Oh and we’ve made it so delivery is now available anywhere in the world.

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
