  1. ACT Greens leader Shane Rattenbury MLA leaving politics after 17 years

    abc.net.au/news/2026-04-20/sha Amongst other things, Shane Rattenbury made a distinctive contribution to the public policy debate over the right to repair in Australia. See my piece - Rimmer, Matthew (2023) Shane Rattenbury, The Productivity Commission, and The Right To Repair: Intellectual Property, Consumer Rights, and Sustainable Development in Australia. Berkeley Technology Law Journal, 37(3), Article number: 2 989-1056. eprints.qut.edu.au/240739/

  2. The #ACTLiberals having another normal one:

    "Peter Cain, the ACT’s shadow attorney general, has apologised “wholeheartedly” for a 2002 workbook he wrote which does not mention the frontier wars and paints a rosy picture of how Christian settlers helped First Nations peoples.

    One exercise talks about the “unfortunate things that happened” with colonisation then asks students to discuss how Aboriginal people have been “blessed” by the British coming."

    1. Is there a more pointless political party in Australia than the ACT Liberals?
    2. With two of their MLAs in Ginny now disgraced, will the voters who shift go to an Indie, Greens or Labor?
