I’m feeling particularly sad tonight, the #LNPCorruptionParty have nothing to offer except lies & bullshit, the MSM, not doing their job in any meaningful capacity. Nothing from NACC which is more than disappointing, I guess it will happen eventually 💔🤷♀️💔

Been keen student of #politics since high school days in 1940's. Heard lots of crude comments from people who should never have been elected to #Parliament but can't remember any uttering more crude & disgusting than this one. Its time @sussanley for you to resign.

Flood the world with disinformation, pay bugger all tax, refuse to pay for news content, give govt the 2 finger salute? That’s Meta for you. Game on. Enforce the code, close the tax loopholes to raise revenue and make them responsible for disinformation and misinformation.

What’s happening with Dutton’s Palladium’s billion dodgy contact? Is that before the NACC?
🚨Bill Shorten slams Peter Dutton for jumping the gun on the mistaken arrest!!!!
Bill Shorten said "Peter Dutton basically used the parliament to prosecute some individual detainee who had been released by the High Court, and he accused him of all manner of things. But the problem is they got the wrong guy
"Pete, when you run a lynch mob, make sure you get the right guy.
"Let's sit back, let the experts, you know, pursue what they want to do. What do you think of that, Pete? No more playing in the traffic."

I wonder if the Liberal candidate for Dunkley has rescinded his Irish citizenship?

Caught up yesterday with the kids from Kincumber Public School at Parliament House.
Dr Gordon Reid MP and I had a great chat with students about how Parliament works.
We also got a few questions about Star Wars after we showed off our Darth Vader and Ewok socks.

Bill Shorten runs rings around Peter Dutton. He said something like he makes more deflections than Wonder Woman. #auspol

Sadly for Jane Hume, Bill Shorten was on hand to call out her bullshit.
She couldn't even stick to her lie which moved from "an hour" to "a day" until Stefanovic bailed her out.
Hume later tried to word salad out of a question. Shorten "a lot of words died in those sentences"😂

And this nasty, infantile, racist shit is still there. This woman is disgusting, a disgrace.

Another appalling policy announcement from the Liberals, who will expand salmon farming if re-elected. This commitment will sell out our public waters, endorse extinction, and ignore the 74% of Tasmanians that have serious concerns with it. #politas

Love it!
1. It doesn’t treat people like “mugs”/“enemies” for getting sucked in by clever disinformation. It focuses on the disinformation itself
2. Meanwhile, it equips us mere mortals without policy research staff to bust disinformation when we encounter it in our communities

The Accord says we need to break down two big barriers if we want more young people to go to TAFE or uni.
One of those barriers is artificial. The other one is invisible 👇👇👇

“Most commonly, they offer their targets consulting opportunities, promising to pay thousands of dollars for reports on Australian trade, politics, economics, foreign policy, defence and security.”
Like the ones Hockey, Pyne, Morrison all work for?
