Powerful statement from Senator @mehreenfaruqi.bsky.social in response to vote against Pocock’s ANU OPDs.

Faruqi called Labour and Coalition Senators out on “running a protection racket for the executive of the ANU” ✊
Senator Gallagher has just torpedoed Senator @davidpocock.bsky.social attempts to bring transparency to ANU governance through Order for Production of ANU budget Documents

Very disappointing to see Senator Gallagher abandoning the ANU community.

ACT Labor Senator Katy Gallagher working hand in hand with Coalition senators to prevent transparency and scrutiny of ANU’s executive and its opaque budgeting.

As Senator @mehreenfaruqi.bsky.social said in the chamber today, this is "absolutely shameful.”

The Albanese government, more than university managers, should be getting the blame for this. Happy to write off $20 billion in student debt because it doesn't appear in the budget deficit, but ripping off current student with high fees and service cuts. #JobReadyGraduates

Its surprising how universities are now being treated as personal assets, while they are public properties.
