    "The Maritime Union of Australia (MUA) originally agreed to back Husic’s resolution after other left-wing unions were pressured to withdraw their support."

    Had a spouse who got shit support from the ACT AEU while they and the rest of the teachers and admin assistants were bullied.
    If a union isn't militant then it's enabling.

    Just a reminder he was the bureaucratic front* for the department/government during the #RoboDebt days.

    Blood on hands.

    * That he still there says something about the current government. The current situation has more in common with Howard and Abbott/Turnbull/Morrison persecution than the service ethics of pre-Howard Depart of Social Security (1972-1998) & CES (1946-1998).

  16. It is absurd that after the horrors of #Robodebt that literally murdered people that Albanese wants to wander that path again.

  17. Predicting people being failed by a system that hasn’t seen massive overhauls post #Robodebt fiasco and corruption concerns, and serous instances of human rights abuses against Australia’s vulnerable and poorest, including deaths, isn’t hard. It is indeed predicable. #FixSocialSecurity #auspol

  19. People mystified by how One Nation can be getting votes, here's a perspective: Lose access to your NDIS funding under Labor, or lose the NDIS under ON, but have the consolation of seeing #AlboMP's place in history recorded as "defeated by One Nation".

    Now, project that onto every issue on which Labor have just continued previous LNP trajectories. #RoboDebt, #NACC, #AUKUS, etc.

    If your own grave is already being dug, you may as well dig a second to settle scores.

    An actuary could calculate the sizes of groups 1. and 3..

    Indeed the Royal Commission and the government could have had this calculation done. #AnthonyAlbanese's government still could.

    But instead we are being kept ignorant.

    What we can be certain of is that more people died than those who have already died after receiving Robodebt notices.

    And we can know that new deaths are continuing to occur.

    Robodebt: How many deaths did this illegal action trigger?

    tldr:
    1. future deaths +
    2. existing deaths of debt notice recipients +
    3. existing deaths of family & friends of Robodebt targets.

    We've got ~2000 dead Australians for group 2.

    Group 3 will have included deaths in friends & family of both those who survived receiving a debt notice and those who didn't.

    Future deaths: AIUI suicides spread out in social groups. How long for? How widely?

    I've been thinking about the RoboDebt deaths - the rough figure of 2000 was AIUI for people who'd personally received a debt notice.

    Realising now that the impacts would have been far wider than just direct recipients - spouses, children, parents, close relatives & close friends would be in the wider group of those impacted by the stress of the illegal debt notice being received.

    On top - the terrible impact of a close person's death being #RoboDebt linked.

    How many more deaths?
