    Indigenous issues are not ‘Left issues’ they are Australian issues.

    Putting in Dutton to move the Liberal party even further to the right completely misses the point. If Dutton is seen as the answer what the hell is the question? This move will not bring us back.

    Sad Nine terminated my regular SMH/Age column this week. Neither Morrison Govt nor MSM actually believe in free press(noun) not controlled or restricted by govt or their sycophantic mates censorship in political or ideological matters

    Double standard? Ardern is being lauded and electorally rewarded for what is virtually a COVID eradication strategy at very significant cost yet Andrews is being attacked everyday for his efforts to contain the virus.

    No more cheap shots. If Morrison doesn’t like/accept Andrew’s pathway let him detail his alternative for which he can then be held fully accountable-be sure to focus on aged care his clear responsibility

    Imagine what a Federal integrity and anti-Corruption Commission would discover with Sports, Carpark, and Regional Rorts, gas-led recovery dollars to mates and donors? Take the Glady’s example. Australian public should demand this before the next election.

    Please give me a break. Dutton blaming Albo for splitting the country when he has spent almost every waking second in recent months attempting to do exactly that.

    What shameless hide of Morrison to call a summit on women’s safety having been instrumental in cutting funding for women’s services,emergency accommodation for victims of domestic violence and failing to respond to accusations of sexual harrassment and bullying in the Parliament

    Trump apologists in the Murdoch and other media and commentators should finally hang their heads in shame for the chaos, insanity and indecency they have facilitated

    Does Morrison have no shame? In the spirit of blaming anyone but himself and his Govt he is now blaming ATAGI the medical advisors for the stuff up of the vaccine rollout. The real reason is that Morrison Didn’t Order Enough Vaccines - pass it on

    How irrelevant does Dutton want the LNP to be? Opposing the climate bill confirming their position on the wrong side of history. Devastating.

    Congratulations to Penny Wong for overturning Morrison’s knee-jerk Trumpian decision to recognise West Jerusalem as Israel’s capital

    If you needed a reminder of Dutton’s lack of grace, dignity, and empathy and arrogance catch his press conference to comment on referendum outcome. Couldn’t help himself in turning it into a political campaign speech just as he politicised the Voice proposal.

    Morrison has form in grabbing power. Go back to his original preselection for Cook when beaten by Michael Towke 82-8 but replaced Towke as candidate after a nasty smear campaign
