In Australia, political candidates and parties don’t have to tell the truth in political ads. It’s actually legal to lie in a political ad!? It is unacceptable abcfriends.net.au/truth

Buttrose’s tenure as chair was tainted by being a Morrison government ‘captain’s pick’, but she nonetheless defended the ABC against tat government’s predations.
