    “The ABC Overton window has shrunk to reduce the presence of strong left-wing commentary. A climate-change denialist is more likely to appear on an ABC discussion panel than a trade unionist.” @JoshBBornstein on the “creeping depression” infecting the ABC.

    “It’s an insult to women everywhere that this donation was considered more worthy of inquiry by the government than the horrifying letter that kicked this whole thing off.” @rachelrwithers today: bit.ly/3nHhHGY

    🖊️ The Politics with @rachelrwithers: Attempts by the right-wing media to turn this into a game of “what killed Kimberley Kitching?”, and to make this an issue of misogyny in order to downplay the Coalition’s own issues, are deeply grotesque. #AusPol bit.ly/3IjoqgX

    It’s great that the Coalition is suddenly concerned about online disinformation, but where was the outrage over Craig Kelly, George Christensen or the disinformation-fuelled protests that rocked Melbourne last month? @rachelrwithers today:

    A coward’s crackdown
    What is driving the Coalition’s sudden interest in reining in misinformation?

    🖊️ The Politics with @rachelrwithers : “It is ludicrous to hear the Libs decry ‘Labor’s’ cost-of-living crisis, when they oversaw a decade in which 93 per cent of economic growth went to the top 10 per cent (far worse than in other nations).” themonthly.com.au/the-politics/r…

    Victoria is going into a snap seven-day lockdown because the Morrison government refused to take responsibility for quarantine and has bungled the vaccine rollout, writes @rachelrwithers. Victorians know it, Australia knows it.

    The lockdown we didn’t have to have
    And the Morrison government doesn’t mind if we have another

    🖊️ The Politics with @rachelrwithers: Do Coalition MPs not realise how much worse this is making them look, as they weaponise a rape allegation, leaning on illegally acquired texts of the woman whose alleged assault they swept under the carpet? #AusPol mnth.ly/JFxy0IO

    “Just imagine for a second that it is true. What would it mean if such a man was allowed to remain attorney-general of this country, without so much as an inquiry?” @rachelrwithers writes:

    “Dreyfus is receiving the full wrath of the media over an incident that has been stripped of its context – many mainstream outlets have been treating his moment of frustration as worse than the misinformation the Coalition has been spreading.” #AusPol mnth.ly/rw1NUWA

    🖊️ The Politics with Rachel Withers: “For months now, Dutton, who holds one of the most influential positions in the country, has been using his platform appallingly, stoking misinformation and bigotry.”

    Peter rabid
    The ‘No’ campaign has emboldened racists, and emboldened Peter Dutton to become the worst version of himself
