Circular deals is certainly one way to write unjustified bubble.

With all that's been going on hard not to see this from the AFP as a cynical redefining of terrorism to suit their masters.

In the Trump era, this is terrifying. Apparently criticising capitalism 🥴🤣 is terrorism now in the US.

Australian Federal Police ®

The AFP has set up new National Security Investigations (NSI) teams to target groups and individuals causing high levels of harm to Australia's social cohesion.
The NSI teams will work closely with state and territory police, law enforcement and national security partners to provide a coordinated, consistent and intelligence-led response to security threats, and also work on a global level through operations, capabilities and relationships with the international law enforcement intelligence community.
There are current and emerging groups dispersed across Australia and in some cases, overseas, who are eroding our country's social fabric by advocating hatred, fear, and humiliation. While many of these crimes may not meet the threshold of terrorism, the AFP has identified concerning behaviours which could escalate to politically-motivated violence or hate crimes, which seriously put the Australian community at risk.
There is no place for hate or violence in our communities and the AFP will defend and protect Australia and Australia's future from these threats.
Anyone with information about possible threats to the community or suspicious activity should make a report to the National Security Hotline on 1800 123 400. In an emergency or life-threatening situation, contact Triple

Your job, for the moment, is to boost at least 2 lovely posts each day - you know, the people who post beautiful birds, animals, nature, etc. so everyone gets something nice in their TLs, since there's so much awful stuff out there. Thank you for your cooperation with this community effort.

KPMG fined £710,937.50 for dud audit of N Brown Group.

Failed to perform proper accounting checks.

Fines are just another cost of doing Nelsonian audits, passed to other customers

Audits by big firms are worthless, but highly profitable. Partners collect millions, exploit state guaranteed market.

Sanctions against KPMG LLP and Anthony Sykes
