It is alleged a SYD federal MP "used political influence to expedite the disembarkation of the Ruby Princess because they had some high profile friends on board". The allegation comes from a senior hospital executive. Twitter ... do your work. Who knows more?

In my near two decades as a DFAT diplomat in PNG, Bonn & Washington DC, I cannot remember one single state-appointed Agent-General or Trade Commissioner who made a difference for their state. Not. A. One. They’re a wank, a pay-off, a sinecure. John Barilaro & NSW knows this.

A VERY senior ADF officer tells me the latest asset deployment is way too little, way too late. "The entire government effort has been woeful: 1400 houses destroyed & we did nothing preventative to stop it despite RFS advice re the need for back-burning & capability. Piss poor."

Here’s what’s appropriate: Narooma Golf Club opened its doors for “evacuees” where we’ve been welcomed all day, without power. They’ve cancelled the fireworks, the bands, the NYE dinner so we have somewhere safe. Woolworths has donated foodstuffs. That’s rural community spirit.

We've sadly lost another Cobargo bushfire victim following burns suffered in fires at his property. His dog Bella perished as well. He died in a Sydney hospital following burns treatment. He was a true country boy, a true blue trooper. Out of respect, name withheld.

Why is the taxpayer paying? If the defamation was lodged in Porter's personal/private capacity -- his words -- why are we paying for "official duties Coogee"? If defo action legal matters weren't the "official duties" in Coogee, what were? Is this guy accountable for anything?

Excellent answers, explanations & prosecution of the workers' case by @unionsaustralia president Michele O'Neil today with @David_Speers #insiders . We need more straight-talking leaders like her! No bullshit, no bluster, no buffoonery. Onya Michele.

You wanna what ELSE is done broke in the USA? Democracy. When you force people to line up in all weather for hours, to vote, you've clearly designed a system to suppress the people's voice, not facilitate it. Voter suppression writ large.

This is a picture of voter suppression. Why do Americans have to wait in lines this long? This is the line in Suwannee Georgia today to vote.

What a patronising, condescending dolt. To wipe that smirk from his face, and then his face from any future TV screens would be a job well done.

. @Anne_Ruston knows full well her daily travel allowance (almost $300) equips MPs with enough $$ to buy second/third homes, including in Canberra. The taxpayers fund all of this largesse. @abc730 made Sen Ruston look so vacuous. She had no answers.

@Senator_Patrick @MarekRivers @ScottMorrisonMP You're an irrelevancy to Australia now. After voting -- essentially the deciding vote -- to dissolve the Family Court on the flimsiest of reasons, you have no standing when it comes to sexual violence. As if you give a continental whether it's Gaetjens or Santa investigating.

@amandavanstone Amanda, seriously? I know someone who got about $400K annually for three years (incl two storey house with elevator, salary, superannuation, rep allowance, staff allowance, chef, driver, car) & a Rome stint. I hear it still pays a tidy sum in superannuation, too!

Gawd, this @InsidersABC is painful, woefully slow, boringly drab & it ain't either the subject matter or @sclark_melbs ' doing: why is Simon Benson there? He's as close to a LIB cannula you can find. Never rated him in all my years dealing with him & his DailyTele daily beat-ups.

Remind me again ... which WA LIB MP was it whose wife reportedly threw his clothes out onto their front lawn, then ran the mower over them? Was it his first or second wife? Is it true? Was he a state or federal polly at the time?

This is so, so dodgy. The case notes are bog standard for visa cancellation. The "tourist" is well aware she will be breaching her visa upon return. It's why she calls her au pair work "volunteer". I', gobsmacked Dutton wants us to believe it was "humane". What unfiltered B.S.

@CroweDM No it's not David, & I'm amazed you would be so naive. Seasonal workers are associated with immigration, short-term visas, & compliance with Cwlth (Fair Work) legislation. These are ALL issues the feds control, not the VIC state government. What makes you think it's Andrews' job?

Let’s just name the alleged rapist. @4corners @Milliganreports & much of parly/press gallery knows his name. I suspect his identity was very close to being revealed in NOV’s 4Cs’ report. Let him explain his actions as an 18-year-old. Though the dead can’t talk, there is a diary.

Passing strange a @4corners journalist/producer ( @PeterCronau ) is appealing for further follow-up from fellow journos to tonight's report. It suggests to me the Press Gallery is sitting on facts it knows; there may even be Gallery journos compromised themselves by the story.

Dear other journalists, We need your follow-up, your ongoing scrutiny to this story. We need you to keep digging, for there is much more there. We need your support in holding power to account. ABC leadership withstood "extreme & unrelenting" political pressure. Ucan2. #4Corners

Hugh is 100% on this ... have arranged access to the WH in the past for Aussie media, including i/v requests many times. The Paul Murray "fan show" was an appalling abuse of the relationship, & of respected journalists' craft. What a joke. That's not journalism.

To get an interview with the US President (I know, I’ve tried) the White House media team clears you with the Australian ambassador in DC, who in turn clears it with the Prime Minister’s office. This is what the PMO put forward. It is not journalism. Simply reward.

Got info on @PeterDutton_MP 's use of ministerial intervention powers regarding au pairs (as many as three on last count, it is alleged)? Whistleblow by 31 August. Let's nail this guy & show no mercy.
