We are meant to believe the NACC is still trying to establish if somebody should be held to account on #Robodebt.
They are now preparing for their Xmas time-off while victims and their families have to see off yet another year without justice. I’ll be thinking of them this Xmas.

It’s almost 2yrs since the day Commissioner Catherine Holmes handed down her final report on Robodebt & referred those responsible for criminal prosecution. It was a day we felt like finally something was happening.
I’m so sorry to all victims who are STILL waiting for justice.

What I know for sure is if registered NDIS providers succeed in getting higher rates for complex care, they won’t pass the profit on to the workers who provide the care or use it to ensure better quality of care for clients

this interview, and the subsequent reporting around it, was absolutely infuriating. any other sector's big business lobby wouldn't get this kind of uncritical, uninformed, wildly inaccurate coverage, yet disabled peoples' essential services do [little 🧵]

Adelita Grijalva brought two Epstein survivors to her swearing in ceremony and Congress gave them a standing ovation.

She then immediately voted to discharge the Epstein petition.

She exuded grace and class and never stopped fighting for her right to govern.

She’s a badass.

Their political ideology killed millions. We won’t let Nazism resurge.

The incongruence. “You people want us unemployed, kicked out the street, want our family broken up and my newborn to starve. All because I disagree with you politically. What you try to do to us personally is far worse than any of our general political ideology.”

Special Envoy to combat antisemitism, Jillian Segal has a fully staffed office in Parliament to speak truth to power.
Special Envoy to Combat Islamophobia, Aftab Malik, doesn't appear to have his own dedicated office with staff there.
& First People of Australia have no voice & no office.
Why?

How in the fuck do we live in a place where John Laws insisted female staff wore skirts & had bare legs yet our own PM @AlboMP this morning still called him a “legend” who was an “authentic voice of Australians” and who “built Australia up just as you guys [Kyle and Jackie] do”???

Once every 20 years or so, the director-general of the BBC is forced to resign for being insufficiently rightwing. Alastair Milne in 1987. Greg Dyke in 2004. Tim Davie in 2025. The great irony is that the BBC was in all cases profoundly biased towards established power. But just not biased enough …
