Did my time working in #auspol. Know some stuff about grants, policy and projects. Would like a fairer Australia where the PM doesn't need an empathy coach.
Bill Shorten on #afternoonbriefing is on 🔥 saying the Feds leaving Aussies stranded overseas is 'cowardly' and 'morally reprehensible'. Pulling no punches on the mismanagement of the NDIS as well. It probably helped that he followed a woeful interview by Jane Hume.

When Voldemort attacks you, as has been my lot in recent days, you know you're doing OK. The two-bit thug responsible for locking up the Biloela kids, au pair visas for mates, attacking GP bulk-billing, boycotting the Apology & failing to bring our Afghan interpreters to safety.
Kathryn Campbell, the top bureaucrat who oversaw the beginning of the unlawful $1.8 billion robodebt scheme has been promoted to heading Australia’s diplomacy as Secretary of the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade. As always with the LNP, a promotion on merit. #TNL#auspol
He was brought in to add to Morrison's optics of control.
His uniform & all he represents is a powerful psychological image of safety & security in Australian's minds.
If it was about operational rollout logistics let's be blunt - they'd have brought in the CEO of Toll.
Covid tales. The general brought in to run the national vaccine rollout is asked to explain why he is here. "I was brought on by the Prime Minister to take operational control and the messaging around the rollout".
Simon Birmingham explaining why another LNP rort, not based on need and designed to influence the 2019 election, is just fine and dandy.

Why is the ABC able to find every disgruntled gym and cafe owner in Perth, Brisbane and Melbourne during their lockdowns, but can’t seem to find any in Sydney to whinge and complain about the @GladysB lockdown? #AUSPOL#SydneyLockdown
You know - and stay with me here - I'm starting to think Scott Morrison may be an average if not variably incompetent sales manager, who befriended the right people, agreed to follow the behests of the powerful fossil fuel and media moguls and is now totally out of his depth.
Breaking:
James Hooke, a former boyfriend of the woman who alleged she was raped by Christian Porter told New South Wales police in a statement in March last year, that Mr Porter had boasted to him in the early 1990s that he had had sex with her.

OMG Tge Morrison government’s tactic to avoid @abc730 just back fired spectacularly .. Queensland’s @AnnastaciaMP didn’t miss them on vaccine and international quarantine failure.
In today's session of 'Definitions of words from the dictionary' brought to you by the NSW Premier...
"whenever I use the word imminently I mean very soon"
Thanks Gladys.
#MorrisonLockdown#auspol#CaptainObvious
Qld government presser and they are going to town on Morrison. People being allowed in by the Feds that aren't returning Aussies and are bringing in Covid. Qld denied enough vaccinations. This is like war...will await the Morrison spin.

PORTER PROSECUTION
@VaniaHolt9 and I are both ex prosecutors. We have read the Porter dossier. We can’t believe the failure to take action. As a result we intend to launch a private criminal prosecution against Porter. Anyone with further evidence please contact us.

Difficult news for Greater Sydney, the Blue Mountains, Central Coast & Wollongong today as they go into lockdown until Fri 9 July. We’ll get through this together, by looking out for each other & following the measures put in place by the NSW Government.

NSW, it’s the #ScottMorrisonLockdown. Making sure he was first in line for the Pfizer shot, he failed to get it for all Australians. He buck-passed quarantine to the states. Aged care is a disgrace. This leering, lying, incompetent buffoon is the worst prime minister in memory.
Ummm...Peta??
Rachel??
Are you guys there??
How about anyone from the IPA? Or maybe Jim's Mowing?
Scotty? Little Joshy? Mr Kennett? Campbell? Anyone???
Where are you guys?? Can't believe how quiet it's gone.
GUYS???
Just listen to the new venues. Makes absolutely no sense that they’re not going city wide. They knew that yesterday. This is politics not public health.
