I think this is a fair alternative: "Mr. Lehrmann has always denied raping miss Higgins, however, was found to have done so on the balance of probabilities, the standard of proof in a civil court matter"...

I am with you !

Reynolds entitlement to try and control the narrative about a rape in her office pushes boundaries of compassion and solidarity amongst women.

Reynolds has no idea about the trauma of sexual violence . It never leaves you.

Reynolds was upset about posts on social media . Spare me

I can't help but think that this whole Anika Wells "travel rorts" outrage, which is almost laughable coming from the super-rorting coalition, is just a distraction from Barnaby's latest alcohol-induced stunt, defecting to One Nation.

I would pay for any accommodation the day the conference ended . I would often have a weeks holiday at the end to see family .

I guess I could have come back to Perth and done 2 trips .

Am over the smash the duopoly mob and the worried white well . Labor and Liberal are nothing at all alike . Teals want a 15% GST and Chaney supports the live sheep trade .

Would love to see a few spend 6 months on a remote community or do a few night shifts in a Tasmanian ER . They have no idea

LNP hold $10,000 a head fund raisers . Teals and Pocock get over 1.5 million in donations from billionaires. A sea of white privilege
Meanwhile state Labor MPs start fund raising yrs before elections with raffles , quiz nights and $150 a head dinners . Sam Lim fundraisers are the best !

Some names and faces just keep reappearing whenever corruption in the federal public service is mentioned. No real surprise just further disappointment that she hasn't gone to jail. #auspol

Home Affairs Sec Stephanie Foster insists refugees in Nauru detention are “not being held”
But turns out they are still surrounded by wired prison fencing & they can’t say whether they are being monitored by a guard.
Sounds like they are being Held to me. #Estimates

Just in! Bruce Lehrmann’s defamation appeal has been DISMISSED by the Full Federal Court!

He was also ordered to pay costs

Reminder! Judgment in Bruce Lehrmann’s defamation appeal will be delivered tomorrow!

Stream via the Fed CourtYouTube from 10.15

Lisa Wilkinson has also challenged parts of the original judgment, the outcome of which is far less predictable than the outcome of Bruce’s appeal…

Just guessing, there won't be any answers and zero accountability. If Mark Dreyfus had set out to design a #NACC that was deliberately evasive, opaque, mysterious, and ineffectual, with an ever-present whiff of imminent scandal, he could only have come up the one we actually got. #NACCfolly
There is $1 million budgeted for the legal assistance needed for NACC to properly reconsider the Robodebt referrals - this funding ends in February 2026 and I hope for all of us that means there will be answers and accountability at this time (6+ years after Robodebt ended).
