"Liam, age 5, was the fourth child in the district to be detained by immigration agents in the past two weeks, school officials said.

"Two of them are high-schoolers.

"One is a 10-year-old girl who was apprehended on her way to school..."

Weird that it’s turning out to be the providers, not the recipients, ripping off the NDIS.

It’s almost as if the Morrison government was so incompetent that it’s taken three years of organised work to clean it up. Incompetent and/or corrupt.

Christ this is bad.
In Albo's new antisemitism bill, the definition of "hate crime", which underpins the new regime to proscribe "hate groups" like the Nazis, specifically excludes "advocating genocide". That is, advocating genocide is treated as not being a racist hate crime. Now, why would that be?

Just astonishing good news. We are on the way to end Multiple Sclerosis.

University research delivers. Always has. Now a cabal in the White House is shattering it.
Epstein-Barr Virus #EBV was linked to #MultipleSclerosis - now a plausible cause has been found, misidentification by longterm memory T-cells that pick on the wrong protein, ANO2, instead of the EBV-antigen. Massive inflection towards the elimination of MS!!!

The Albo government's antisemitism bill is a rushed hatchet job. Nobody has proper time to consider it carefully enough, and it will have all sorts of unintended consequences if passed. It is the worst kind of law-making: moral panic induced, pandering to powerful lobby groups' demands.

We'll say it again: "social cohesion", when uttered by the holders of political and social power and privilege, means simply the maintenance of the dominant culture and silencing of any challenge to it.

This bill is truly awful, an embarrassment
The hate speech bill is an omnibus disaster — and there's a glaring exclusion
The argument the government is putting forward for excluding 'advocating genocide' from this bill's list of hate crimes is nonsensical.
