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.

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).

We are meant to believe the NACC is still trying to establish if somebody should be held to account on #Robodebt.
They are now preparing for their Xmas time-off while victims and their families have to see off yet another year without justice. I’ll be thinking of them this Xmas.

It’s almost 2yrs since the day Commissioner Catherine Holmes handed down her final report on Robodebt & referred those responsible for criminal prosecution. It was a day we felt like finally something was happening.
I’m so sorry to all victims who are STILL waiting for justice.

It turns out the private companies contracted to improve the $92 million BOM website were Accenture and Deloitte. I hope this proves once and for all that private companies are ALWAYS more expensive than the government. What a total rip-off. 👎

The true cost of the Bureau of Meteorology’s website redesign has been revealed to be $96.5m, with the environment minister asking the agency’s new chief executive to explain what led to the massive cost blowout.
BoM apologised last month after the new site was criticised by politicians and the public when it launched. The agency swiftly made changes to help users find functions they were used to on the old site. Continue reading...
