#FedICACnow! Vote independent and put the most corrupt parties last (LNP, One Nation, UAP). Vote independent for lower population growth.

This generic "Australia wide staff shortage" is rubbish. Yes there are shortages, but it's not same for every industry. There are businesses seeing 20+ applicants for each job. Some businesses can't get workers- usually low paid, heavy work. But there seems a mis match #insiders

Barnaby says nobody’s talking about Morrison taking on ministries in the IGA, move on. Luckily he was only focused on how to derive political advantage from it. And now he’s showing his classic *deny and dissemble* tactic. Shonks covering for shonks. #insiders

This afternoon, hundreds of antivax protesters blockaded Flemington Rd & made it difficult & traumatic for sick kids, their families & the staff to get to RCH. I am disgusted beyond words at their ignorance & malice. You are beneath contempt.

Love this video for explaining the math of masks & how even a 50% effective mask is better than no mask at all & more effective than 50% when everyone wears masks. People can try to argue with science, but it's much harder to argue math:

Adam Brandt must learn to be less confrontational, less demanding, and learn how to work with others to secure a solution.

How long has it been since Greg Sheridan mentioned deficits? #insiders 9 years?

Dutton's policy for the next 3yrs is ignore the failures of the past 9yrs, propose no new policies & blame Labor. Just turned the clock back to the Abbott era #insiders

Bring it on. I can't wait. Thanks to you and your team (special shout out to Kristo) for all the great work you have done exposing this clearly rotten govt. We all like to bitch about it but you guys do the hard yards and provide the proof. What a great night, even at this age

In Scott Morrison's concession speech he thanked: the defence force, police and tradies (as well as Australians at large) He did not thank any of the frontline workers who got Australia through the pandemic, teachers, nurses, health workers or aged care workers.

Samantha Maiden has just revealed the Rupert Murdoch Newscorp plan for the next 3 years Establish and back Peter Dutton as a "crash test dummy" to act as an Opposition attack dog leader similar to Tony Abbott Then replace Spud later on with someone more palatable 😫 #insiders

Bizarre that u miss the point that the media drives this bullshitty fluff from years ago. How bout u and your colleagues ask about climate change, cost of living, etc instead of just tagging along for photo ops & regurgitating press conferences & releases?

2 1/2 minutes that sums up everything wrong with Australian political reporting In 2010 American professor Jay Rosen came to Australia and nailed it with "horse race journalism". His damning critique of Insiders, and Leigh Sales' defensive reaction, is worth it alone #auspol

recently. Spruiking Smirko's supposed 'miracle' with never a mention of Palmer's $70million, and now the 'we don't know Albo' LNP meme. In no way impartial #auspol

If you think US intelligence is any good, why didn’t they know that Australia’s Minister for Defence was hopelessly compromised and open to blackmail from any number of directions?

"What? A life-long factional warrior playing internal party procedural games? Noooo. The “neutral” press gallery doesn’t want to muddy the waters with a complex story, because they know how much the general readership love a simple victimhood tale."

How the idea of a woman bullied to death can take on hero status

Russia invaded Ukraine because the West is 'weak'... yet a text message killed a senator. These conflicting messages from the right reek of desperation.

The reframing of Kimberley Kitching as a defenceless victim of backroom ALP bullying is hilarious - bare-faced disingenuousness & point-scoring. You can only buy into any of it if you know nothing about her & husband Andrew Landeryou - which is the whole point. It's theatre.

Gareth Evans on Virginia Trioli says the pressure Senator Kitching was under arose from the extreme policy positions she chose to take on a range of issues, positions that did not represent the mainstream party. Exactly. And good on Gareth for having the guts to say it. #auspol

As a journalist, aren't you supposed to be impartial?

Is there going to be a time in the near (or even distant) future where you will check your facts before tweeting out these half baked comments? Aren’t journalists supposed to investigate? A quick check of the media office website?

Not impressed with David Speers interview with Kristina Keneally, he's going much harder on her than he does with LNP interviewees #auspol #insiders

The dolt from Kooyong…lighter than helium… This is a senior government minister, who has no economic agenda, no means to make housing affordable, no intention to bring people out of poverty. ⁦
