Does Robert Reid, Reynolds' partner, seriously expect us to believe his evidence that her cardiologist said they could lose her, then just sent her home? Absurd!

I live in the West, but Steven Miles seems to me to be doing a brilliant job since becoming Premier. He has matured quickly and well into the job. His ideas are progressive, proactive, and positive. Well done,

Thank you everyone for sharing

Queensland media is predominately controlled by Murdoch - so Miles doesn't get a fair go in the media up here - never has done
That's why social media is critical for a fair state election up here

This decision alone shows how flawed Linda Reynolds' judgement is. That a 59 year old woman has put her home at risk purely to seek revenge, speaks volumes about Reynolds. To think this incompetent was actually Minister for Defence in the previous government. Frightening stuff.
Reynolds “putting my house on the line to be here today just takes the cake. I have no words for it. It’s gross. It’s unfair. I put everything on the line to be here today, that ain’t comfortable”.
It was her choice. It was her choice to attack a rape victim.

Remember how Leigh Sales popped up in a Melb presser & got stuck into Dan Andrews, just like Peta Credlin did?
Never once did Sales stand at the front of Berejiklian's presser & asked her questions with the same tone & verve.

@AJGardineresq

And the disgraceful stitch up began with Linda Reynolds, a handmaiden of Scott Morrison if ever there was one. Her lack of courage, integrity, and truthfulness in recent times is a slur on her shaky reputation. As a parliamentary woman, Reynolds is repulsive.
This matter isn’t closed. It needs a Royal Commission into the steam cleaning, the AFP leaking & backgrounding to the media & the juror who defied the judge 17 times. This is the biggest stitch up against a woman in Australian history.

It seems significant to me that the powers that be in the ABC made sure Laura Tingle was not a Budget commentator last night. Methinks Laura is too measured and unbiased for inclusion among the likes of David Speers and Andrew Probyn, who never hide where their allegiance lies.
Laura Tingle says this first surplus in 15 years is politically significant and should mark the end for Labor enduring political attacks of being the lesser economic managers.

Does anyone now seriously believe that errant juror was not a plant? There has to be something enormous going on beneath the surface of this case. Something far beyond one very ordinary, quite cunning, but weedy Walter Mitty type called Lehrmann. The plot thickens every day.
Lehrmann’s presumption of innocence ‘until proven guilty’ met a decided ally in the singular juror misconduct that halted the criminal case from seeing the court reach a finding of guilt or innocence (a sheriff knocked a folder onto the ground and “in picking up the material”

What a perceptive woman is Fiona Brown proving not to be. It just goes to show there are some very ordinary people working in highly paid jobs in Parliament, and furthermore, some are far more ordinary than others.
So Fiona Brown admits Brittany Higgins said Lehrmann was “on top” of her but apparently it wasn’t enough for her to realise a possible sexual assault had taken place or even that Higgins was crying - even tho she admits Higgins had “water in her eyes”. Hmm.

The one thing we can say for sure is Linda Reynolds won't retire from her spongey job with her "reputation" intact, having never had a reputation worth a cracker. She's been a dumb woman, easily manipulated by mysoginistic male Libs needing a sacrificial female to take the blame.

Australia’s justice system is not the forum for failed politicians like Linda Reynolds to enact disturbed revenge fantasies. A psychologist or psychiatrist might help her with hurt feelings. The public pays the price for politicians launching defamation cases in our courts.

Linda Reynolds needs to do herself and everyone else around her a favour, and go grow a brain at this late stage of her life. West Aussies despise her. She has no talent, no capability, and has always been a Liberal puppet, especially in the Morrison days.

It's ironic that she is suing for defamation yet that very act makes her look even worse than she ever did before.
I wonder how that comes into it legally? It clearly shows that the law suit is about revenge, not her reputation.

Whoever will forget that outdoor press conference where Morrison denied having any knowledge at all of the rape accusation? It was completely inconceivable to believe what he said was true. I can't imagine Morrison's credibility as a witness for Reynolds has improved.

Linda Reynolds has once again revealed herself to be a complete narcissist. A truly pathetic creature who has never grown up. Her Mummy and Daddy are due to take the stand this week, no doubt to attest to more sob stories about their poor Linda who has been so terribly wronged.
Linda Reynolds is so incredibly low I cannot comprehend it.
Imagine how Kimberley Kitching's family feel hearing her death linked to the Bruce Lehrmann ordeal?
I stand with Brittany Higgins and those impacted by sexual assault ❤️

So now you are a mind reader as well as a journalist Leigh Sales? We in the West are very happy we have a competent, proactive Premier in charge, looking after both our health and the economy. He has been supremely effective. Why do you have to knock what works?

It just demonstrates the adults are not in charge of the Liberals with this Linda Reynolds circus happening in the Supreme Court of WA. It is doomed, and is only serving to make Reynolds look completely deranged. Morrison appearing as a witness will only add to the circus.
So Scott Morrison who was criticised at the
#RobodebtRC
for giving “untrue evidence” about his illegal scheme, who only agreed to give evidence about his multiple secret ministries through his lawyers, will this week give evidence to try help Linda Reynolds sue a rape victim?

Kathryn Greiner was magnificent on The Drum, as were all guests. Kathryn Greiner, being a Lib from way back, spoke with courage and decency regarding Dutton's failed leadership. For true Liberals it must be heartbreaking to see what an insignificant, toxic party it has become.

At last someone is finally talking about the elephant in the room! It is bleedingly obvious! These present tired old guys need to retire and leave young, decent, educated, talented Americans untainted by corruption to run the country. Amen.
The average age of retirement is somewhere between 55 to 65 years old.
Why do we allow politicians and Presidential candidates who are 70+ 75+ 80+ years old?
Does this age fly your planes? Perform your surgeries?
No they don’t. For good reason.

Clearly Linda Reynolds doesn't have the nouse to heed the advice of the Judge. If she seriously thinks suing Brittany Higgins will restore her reputation, damaged purely by her own actions and omissions, she is in La La Land.

The one thing we can say for sure is Linda Reynolds won't retire from her spongey job with her "reputation" intact, having never had a reputation worth a cracker. She's been a dumb woman, easily manipulated by mysoginistic male Libs needing a sacrificial female to take the blame.
@Russputin2
You're kidding, right?
Reynolds has only one interest, feathering her nest by claiming defamation, chasing another payout to supplement her parliamentary pension when she pulls the plug on her less than illustrious career.

Wouldn't you know it, failed diplomat Marise Payne, is preparing the ground for Morrison's non attendance at Glasgow climate conference. Morrison knows he would get the rounds of the kitchen. He is a gutless bully.

To watch desperate Bulldozer Morrison in action with Leigh Sales tonight was enough to boot Morrison out forver. It was the most senseless word salad ever, and that's saying something. Persistently refused to answer questions and aggressively talked over her with his own agenda.
@ScottMorrisonMP
'I'm not speculating on these scenarios Leigh.'
In other words, I refuse to answer your question.

Yep, that was the day Morrison learnt the lesson. Don't mess with a smart woman. Laura Tingle could easily outsmart Morrison any day of the week. In her ever so subtle and extremely clever way she has done him slowly and ever so well. Bravo Laura!

With hard evidence such as this document posted plus many more similar instances, it is quite beyond my comprehension how Linda Reynolds' lawyer, Martin Bennett could have, in all conscience, advised her to take this vexacious action. It's very likely doomed to fail. Incompetent.
Linda Reynolds, your lies catch up eventually. You recant, double back, edit and recreate for the purpose of destroying Brittany, a young (24), year old who was fiercely loyal, professional, committed. Is it jealously? BH has integrity and you don’t?

Linda Reynolds is truly a disgusting creature. How can she live with herself?
“Brittany Higgins to sell French getaway as she faces crippling legal costs.”
I don’t think people realise that Brittany could lose everything.
Her mental health really suffered due to the rape and now she faces massive legal costs in the Reynolds case🤬

As a West Aussie myself, I found it incredulous when this incompetent, nasty Morrison handmaiden Linda Reynolds was voted back into the Senate. Simply did not make sense.

Bettina Arndt is a truly vile creature who has a psychological need to bottom feed from blokes who are seriously disturbed, ugly mysoginists. She is a hateful parasite of the most foul kind. Any woman who enables or feeds off sexual disturbances of men deserves utter contempt.
Have ONE guess who’s going to be a “keynote speaker” for an alleged event held by Bettina Arndt???
