I hope so Peter. The lack of transparency, FOI limitations, not being decisive about climate or renewables, supporting fossil fuel industry are all pretty abhorrent.
He’s 2nd only to Morrison in terms of deception. Sad.

Absolutely agree Peter. This has happened so many times in history!!
Complete corruption is so visible now.
We won’t tolerate a govt behaving badly either!! Albanese is the biggest disappointment. He could have been so great but it turns out he’s a sellout who is worse than the liars before him!

It’s the Feds making Portland look like a war zone— not the protesters.

And honestly, these protesters are brilliant. They’re flipping the whole authoritarian cosplay on its ass!

This was exactly my objection to Merivale taking over Rose Bay RSL!! Any business that doesn’t pay its staff properly tells you they don’t value anything but money.
We seem to live in a world where bad actions have so little consequences for filthy rich. I know 1 day it will change.Hope it’s soon.

Why would they not want to answer??
Hiding something? Unlawful? Illegal? Unethical? All of the above??
If they don’t know the answer then no job for them!!

What a line from the Pope! I am so pleased he is carrying on Pope Francis’ advocacy for immigrants.

More pointedly, the pope said, "Someone who says, I'm against abortion, but is in favor of the death penalty is not really pro-life. Someone who says, I'm against abortion but I'm in agreement with the inhuman treatment of immigrants in the United States, I don't know if that's pro-life."

So now we know Penny Wong supports the rorts?? Oops I mean lobbyists??
Disgusting.
What a decent ethical person would say is that’s not right, let’s look into it to make sure it’s all above board!!

Independent Senator David Pocock and Labor's Penny Wong clashed in Senate estimates yesterday over whether the Parliamentary Sports Club could be considered a lobby group, as reported in Crikey last week. The club is registered as such, and lists Responsible Wagering Australia as one of its clients.

AI should be treated as a risk management problem — and we need flexible policymaking processes to deal with its unknowable future, @keanebernard.bsky.social writes.

Can wise heads fix the hard problem of AI policy?

Here's a list of questions for Senate estimates that will probably, definitely, not be asked

We’ve compiled a short list of the questions that could be asked at estimates, but probably won’t be.
