So the Morrison Govt sends out an SOS tender for RATs spending federal $ urgently straight after the PM reckons they are a State responsibility. Pattern: do nothing, ignore problem, shed responsibility, hit by crisis, blame others, big announcement, poor delivery.

Another day, another contract Peter Dutton needs to explain.
This one is worth $82 million... for just 282 days of services... and issued without a competitive tender.
Are we simply expected to believe that Dutton doesn’t pay any attention to the contracts his Department signs?
An $82 million contract was handed to a politically connected PNG company to provide services on Manus for just 282 days
