Dismayed by the whole “this happens in every workplace” being suggested by female MPs on #insiders . I don’t know a workplace where there are orgies, an alleged rape, sex in the prayer room, sex workers brought to the workplace and masturbating on desks.

Here it is folks. The reason NSW towns have run out of drinking water so soon is the Nats in NSW changed the rules so they didn’t have to reserve drinking water in case of a “worst case scenario” drought. That water was used for cotton instead. Discuss

For the record, I didn't say "nobody likes Bill Shorten".What I actually said was "He's not well-liked". I was referencing multiple opinion polls the latest, April 14 Newspoll showing only 35% rank Shorten as preferred Prime Minister. #auspol #ILikeBillShorten #thedrum

"We all deserve to be treated with courtesy and respect" says a Centrelink recorded message after a robot misunderstands what you are saying and demands you say it over and over for a minimum 5 minutes before they answer any call. AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Prof Tanya Sorrell - the straight talking doctor helping to manage coronavirus in Australia. How wonderful to hear someone on @RNBreakfast in the key 7.30 (usually politics) interview slot actually ANSWERING the question asked. I’ve had to lie down on the couch to recover.

Wash ya mouth out Izzy. Kids who want to change gender need the approval of the Family Court if their parents won't give consent. Leviticus 19:11 Do not deceive one another.

This is how stupid twitter is. We had a discussion on #thedrum about flimsy labour protections in NZ and the absence of awards. Ardern wants to reintroduce award minimum conditions and pay. This was interpreted as an attack on Ardern. Avalanche of abuse followed. Ffs.

Here’s an earlier fact-check on One Nation claims that 3 men a day are suiciding due to family breakdown. Result: no available statistics to support that. ⁦ @RNBreakfast #auspol

Someone in power must prefer myth to history - we can’t speak of invasion, frontier wars, the rape of our nurses in SE Asia in WW2, war crimes + our archives rot while we extend the war memorial - only ever meant to be a small quiet place of reflection.
