Strangely, people who have been in the press gallery for decades have not twigged to this and are treating it like a novelty, a triumph for hope over experience
Just a reminder that Pauline Hanson has fallen out with every ambitious man she has ever worked with other than Ashby, and Barnaby Joyce has fallen out with everyone he's ever met. This is going to be *exquisite*.

Australia’s major human rights inquiry urged clear legal protections and reform. Eighteen months later, the government has still not responded. That silence now demands an explanation, writes Kym Davey. #HumanRightsDay #auspol #HumanRights
Australia’s human rights report has been quietly buried
The world marks Human Rights Day this Wednesday 10 December. But a comprehensive parliamentary report calling for a national Human Rights Act remains unanswered. Its silence speaks volumes about the gap between rhetoric and action in Australia’s human rights commitments.

What I never hear: “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.”

"I just want everyone to remember that at the heart of the matter we have a young man who was accused of rape at Parliament House.
"He maintains his innocence.
"Bruce's life has been destroyed.
"I'd]just like to say that we hope Bruce is seen as an inspiration to those who say they've been wrongly accused ... because he will be seeking advice for special leave and it's not the end of it in respect of his pursuit for justice.'](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ag4wck6i2ulx7lwkakouqs56/bafkreiex6ic4cbcebechjbfmciehkzcjuwy24f7wwam4pv3dwxblhmws4q@jpeg)
