Yeah right. Wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. 9/11. Yes 9/11. A worldwide pandemic that changed society. Donald Trump. An insurrection on Capitol Hill. The Bali bombing and a tsunami that killed 200,000 in our own region.

Because the queen died! It's more than just a noteworthy event. It's the most noteworthy event for decades.

How can the PM of this country not know that most of the detainees being held in cruel conditions at the park hotel are genuine refugees? Not asylum seekers. We have totally lost our moral compass.

Djokovic lost because the law was designed to make the Minister’s decisions immune from judicial review. That is not a good thing.

Can smokers light up again indoors as a celebration of the new era of personal responsibility?
"We don't have to mandate people wearing sunscreen and hats in summer." Scott Morrison on reimposing mask mandates as NSW Premier Dominic Perrottet resists calls to reintroduce the measure. #9Today

The subtext of @nswcho update at today's presser is that she has been advising the NSW govt and @GladysB they should have shut down business sooner. This needs to be followed up. Has the govt NOT been following the health advice they continue to claim to? #COVID19nsw

It’s pretty clear after this performance we need to boot out @ScottMorrisonMP and get @ak_pennington into politics. Finally someone clear and pragmatic. #qanda

These days he is only interviewed by sycophantic supporters. John Howard never retreated. He backed himself against the best (Kerry O’Brien et al). They all did actually. Hawke, Keating, Rudd, Gillard, Turnbull. Tells you something doesn’t it?
Since the #BrittanyHiggins story broke a month ago, @abc730 has invited Prime Minister @ScottMorrisonMP for an interview more than 13 times. #abc730

A large crowd is gathering outside the Tomb of the Unknown Staffer to recognise the sacrifice made for political transparency. Some have suggested it is a mass grave.

“One trend more prevalent is the complete absence of consequence for poor public behaviour and administration. Now we need consequences, we deserve consequences. The insouciant, lackadaisical attitude of leaders like Scott Morrison is a disgrace.” #auspol thenewdaily.com.au/news/poli…

20min critiquing Labor restructure and then directly to Frydenberg interview with no panel discussion on Govt. Frydenberg can use an interview to push an agenda. This is not balanced. #Insiders
Leadership talk is a self fulfilling prophecy, if the media stops talking about it so will the Labor party. “People don’t care” so why spend 15min flogging the horse on the issue? @InsidersABC #Insiders
All we needed was #Robinhood to bring the country together

RT if you think it’s wrong that the Liberals have spent $1 billion on government advertising since 2013.

Margaret Court has already been honoured for her tennis prowess. She’s already an Officer of the Order of Australia. I think it’s clear for everyone to see that making her a Companion of the Order of Australia has nothing to do with tennis.

Sport Australia has redacted the entire list of #sportsrorts projects whose agreements were signed after the notional 30 June 2019 deadline. All they give is dates, the rest is subject to public interest immunity claim. #auspol
