Former NSW Premier Barry OβFarrell resigned as heβd βforgotβ to declare an expensive bottle of wine.
Federal Labor minister Mick Young waa forced to stand down in 1984 as he didnβt declare a Paddington bear in his luggage thru customs.
Hanson is gifted a new plane and $2M cash from a billionaire and the media thinks itβs a blow up over nothing?

If youβre under 45, you have no experience of how effective the nationwide, not-for-profit, client-focused, one stop shop Commonwealth Employment Service was. Set up after WW2, it functioned effectively until John Howard shut it down for private sector mates in 1996. #auspol

Dear @AlboMP : does this mean that the federal government will pick up the tab for the inevitable cost blow-out?

I wish I didnβt have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture.
They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as βthe most openly corrupt president in American history.β /1

When did "wear your seatbelt correctly" become a "lesser-known rule"?

Australia doesnβt need the gas from fracking the Beetaloo, which would produce over 9x what's required between now and 2050.
It would take the National Electricity Market 237 years to use this much gas β blowing way past Australia's 2050 net zero target. #auspol

Scott Morrison did not earn an ounce of respect as PM. He was a shallow, self-serving, mendacious, grifting, back-stabbing, evangelical RWNJ & these are the nice things I have to say about #5MinistriesMorrison It is beyond me how @abcnews gives him any credence at all.

Look, I get everyone has a lot of content to fill, especially on a 24 hour news channel, but Scott Morrison is the most unpopular prime minister in recent memory, who is now a shrill for defence and arms companies. Thereβs no need to ever have him on

I want well funded hospitals and public schools, cheaper housing and a living wage.
I don't want AUKUS.
Who's with me?

The great Aussie gas giveaway is set to continue under Labor π€―π«
This is a total scam - we havenβt received a cent of PRRT for offshore LNG exports & the weak changes Govt made last term arenβt fixing it.
Parliament needs to fix the PRRT.

With the Coalition losing the election, the 7 promised nuclear reactors will now never be built. Which coincidentally is the same as if the Coalition had won the election.

The second term of the Albanese Government must now seize this opportunity to be bolder in delivering real reform to fulfill its promise of leaving no-one behind.

If you've ever been injured by a stray football kicked by Peter Dutton, you can now get treated quickly and free of charge at one of our Medicare Urgent Care Clinics.
We all know Dutton loves making cuts, whether itβs to journalists' heads or the Health Budget. #DontRiskDutton
