        #Shorten ... #Labor ... Skeletons ... closet .... etc. What happens in Canberra stays in #Canberra ... or used to. Sex ban ... hmm maybe that call is a bit late for some in the hallowed halls...

        So is The Oz going to pressure pollies to support Turnbull’s sex ban now? It’s just a diversion from Barnaby, you know.

        It's the corruption and the kickbacks, and the predatory sex. Not all sex between consenting adults is like this #auspol #auspolbarnaby

        The fact that a minister has caused this matter of basic common sense to be spelled out is what's newsworthy.
