  2. Not Reporting A War Part 2

    Pete Hegseth is the Peter Principle applied to the largest weapons arsenal in human history. Pine Gap guides the missiles. Australian-made F-35 parts are in the payload. And our media calls it a partnership. Part Two of Urban Wronski’s investigation into what Australia’s press is not reporting, and what our silence is costing.

  4. NACC's non-public 'Robodebt Six' hearings failed us all

    The NACC Report on the Robodebt reinvestigation described scenarios which all but exonerated Scott Morrison and Kathryn Campbell.

  5. “It turns out that it doesn’t take a regional war. Australian resilience, apart from its test at the hands of #OneNation populism, is being stressed by a medium-sized war far from our region. #AngusTaylor is in a poor position to criticise the government. He was the #ScottMorrison government minister who proudly assigned #Australian (#Petrol and #oil) reserves to the safekeeping of the USA.”

  10. “The #NACC looked at whether former prime minister #ScottMorrison should have further questioned the #policy during cabinet discussions.

    Mr Morrison was the #SocialServices minister when the scheme was proposed.

    The report found his failure to detect misleading information was not in breach because he was expected to rely on the advice of his department.”

    The fact corruption charges were not found against #ScottyFromMarketing is a good indicator of corruption in NSW Labor as well.

  12. Disgraced former Prime Minister #ScottMorrison’s government “is to spend $94m to begin building up a #stockpile of #crudeoil – but will initially store the fuel in the #UnitedStates.”

    The location of the storage on the other side of the Pacific Ocean has drawn ridicule from the federal opposition, which says the “bizarre” plan will not help if sea lanes are closed due to global tensions.

    Fantastic. Great move. Well done Angus. (Who was then Energy Minister)

  13. Angus Taylor resigns from Liberal frontbench ahead of expected leadership spill
    abc.net.au/news/2026-02-11/fed

    Ot appears Angus Taylor's handlers have convinced him that he has the numbers to shiv Susssan Ley.

    My opinion is that Angus Taylor doesn't have a strong enough grasp of mathematics to do the sums for himself — because if he did, he'd be more cautious.

    One wonders if Angus Taylor has been taking advice from the same innumerate people who set-up Peter Dutton for his failed spill against Malcolm Turnbull in August 2018 that handed the party leadership and position of Prime Minister to Scott Morrison.

  22. Tony Abbott intervenes in Liberal leadership battle calling on right to unite to oust Sussan Ley
    abc.net.au/news/2026-01-28/ton

    It hurts me to say this, but: Susssan Ley is right. She's recognised that if the Liberal Party is to survive, to present itself as a credible Opposition, and have more than just a dream of winning an election in the next decade, it needs to be overhauled.

    Susssan Ley has a mountain of work ahead of her if she's trying to reform and modernise the Liberal Party. This comes after years that cannot be swept under the carpet, and memories that stretch back so far in people's minds that we have a clear picture of what is "normal" for the Liberal Party. Some people like Tony Abbott want that "tradition" that he was part of and benefited from to persist, and for the rest of us to forget the aspects that were terrible for most people in Australia.

    But, who can forget the lies and racism and RWNJ extremism resembling Nazism of the Malignant Potato Peter Dutton, the lies and racism and self-serving religious quackery of the Liar from the Shire Scott Morrison, the lies and racism and outrageous sexism and anti-intellectualism and cruelty disguised as boofheadedness of The Mad Monk Tony Abbott, the lies and racism and nonsensical neo-con ideology of Malcolm Turnbull, and the lies and racism and mean-spirited divide-and-conquer class-warfare of John Howard?

  28. "... take some responsibility for extreme ... " - Scott Morrison, Wednesday 21st January 2026

    Some 2000 Australians are dead after Liberal governments targeted them and 500,000 other Australians with illegal debt notices.

    That's one hundred times as many people as killed at Bondi Beach.

    Scottie - some responsibility?

  29. As a follow-up to the #murder of #AlexPretti wouldn’t it be about time that we Australians broke off the AUKUS deal and wound back what ties we have to the #dysfunctional #crazy #racist #UnitedStates?

    If we really need human crewed #NuclearSubmarines, and I suspect we don’t, it would be a good move to try and get back on side with the French who could build our subs for us.

    Of course we would need to build a #nuclear #reactor to produce the fuel needed, or failing that we should arrange for the #French or even the #British to refuel our subs for us when the fuel rods need replacing.

    Or maybe we should concentrate on #unmanned nuclear power #drone submarines capable of working at ridiculous depths and loitering on the bottom for years, ready to kill any threatening ship or submarine when needed.

    The technology is available; perhaps we could lead the world in producing our own version of such a monstrous machine. Again, we could rely on our friendly allies to refuel them for us for a price.

    #ScottMorrison was a lying idiot.

  32. On 26th Oct 2021, Australian PM Scott "don't-be-scared-of-coal" Morrison announced the Coalition's #NetZero2050 #ClimateTarget.

    That same day, I read the document containing Morrison's 'plan'. It contained nothing to get Australia anywhere near the (already compromised idea of) #NetZero.

    There was no plan, no modelling, no change in actual policies. The #ScottMorrison 'commitment' to net zero was still completely consistent with decades of #Coalhugger #Coalition policies. The target was toothless, an exercise in getting a headline to quiet the conscience of the news-skimming voter whose grandkids keep telling them climate is bad but who really wants to vote for hurting marginalised people and/or retaining their current tax loopholes (and who hasn't realised how much the #ALP embraces both anyway).

    So with this week's news that #SussanLey has dropped that pretence, at least now there is one iota less dishonesty in Australian politics (albeit one with its own new lies and contradictions).

    The last time the Coalition's #ClimatePolicy slightly departed from utter loyalty to the #DirtyEnergy industry was the morning of the 1st Dec 2009 in the hours before #MalcolmTurnbull was deposed as leader of her Majesty's Opposition and replaced by #TonyAbbott by a single vote.
