    What’s clear is media teams have been working overtime with the Australian cricketers in obfuscating the truth. Ownership isn’t enough. Neither are tears. It looks rehearsed & hollow.

    Foreign Minister makes a stunt out of Russian expulsions. The public of 24 retaliating countries are still waiting for proof of Putin-sponsored assassination using nerve agent. Russia is member UN Security Council. If guilty as charged consequences will escalate.

    When you hear the Liberals & the BCA say Australia needs to cut corporate tax b/c Trump has cut company tax - remember- 1. US companies also pay state taxes 2. US does not have dividend imputation 3. American companies pay for their employees health care. No Medicare there.

    Wow Commission of Audit chief Tony Shepherd tells “we cannot afford not to do it” - company tax cuts - pushes the discredited Laffer Curve and ignores budget impact.

    For me, Australia's name got slurred the day I learned about your offshore detention system. On the international scene human rights are still bigger than cricket.

    .: As a nation, our name has been slurred, and as a nation, we must be seen to react: Steve Smith must go

    OMG the Australian cricket team’s cheating brain snap is reprehensible. Steve Smith’s poor form on tour has utterly distorted his clear thinking powers. What was Book up to as well?

    C'mon Gerard Henderson: you of all people who personally lobbied ministers for the release of certain asylum seekers know full well Dutton's fingerprints are all over these Nauru transfer decisions. All ministers have specific interests & intervene regularly.

    Businesses need a company tax cut to ensure they hire more people. That's why the government introduced a bank levy...on the biggest contributors to company tax. Get your head around that....but don't worry, apparently the levy & company tax cut cancels each other out. 😂

    Because it's not an echo chamber featuring me wearing a LIberal Party logo t-shirt Chris. Journalism involves talking to all elected representatives. Is sensible. Is newsworthy. Is in national interest. Is not a brain dead echo chamber.

    Why does Sky give the hateful, divisive and idiotic bile of Greens like McKim a platform? Not sensible. Not newsworthy. Not in national interest. Demeaning for the station.

    Tonight, I’ve called out Pauline Hanson’s lies about herteaming up with the Liberals to cut the bereavement allowance, which is paid togrieving, low income Australians, when their partner dies. Retweet to expose Hanson selling out the battlers she claims to care about – AGAIN.
