Murdoch’s News Corp has moved into the mortgage business. Where are the regulators?
Australia doesn’t have a regulator suitable to tackle the kind of media, advertising and home-lending giant News Corp’s REA Group is becoming.

I do wonder if Scott Britton has to put Scott Britton on the risk registers he maintains for the federal prosecutor’s office
From me: The architect of the Robodebt scheme, who was told it was unlawful even as he delivered it for the government, is still employed in the public service, now at the Commonwealth Director of Public Prosecutions. And in a senior governance and risk role. www.crikey.com.au/2026/02/20/r...
Exclusive: Robodebt architect remains employed in a senior governance role in the public service
Scott Britton was a national manager of the customer compliance branch in the Department of Human Services and signed a June 2014 minute that first detailed how robodebt would work.
