I don't think it's fair to criticise the bureau for saying $4 million when they really meant $96 million. After all it was just an estimate, and this is level of precision they're accustomed to providing.

I guess this means that the coalition thinks they have more chance of winning back One Nation nutjobs than the more rational teals. Conclude from that what you will.

"Hastie joins Coalition voices backing Rudd, breaking with Ley."

Amusing that the most destabilising Labor leader of the last 40 years is now the source of Liberal instability.

Robodebt Royal Commission is Labor's one and done gesture towards welfare recipients.

They could immediately go back to holding them in contempt and starving them afterwards.

They can only afford principles in opposition.

It’s highly unlikely anyone involved in creating and implementing Robodebt will ever face criminal prosecution because of the class action settlement

When you're watching The People vs Robodebt tonight, remember that this is not simply history - Labor is hunting welfare recipients for dodgy debts to this day.

And more than two years on from the Royal Commission, they've failed to implement key recommendations to prevent harm.

Meanwhile, Robodebt's victims, like Jenny Miller who you'll hear from in the documentary, have been fighting for justice for years - but they've seen little of it. The perpetrators of Robodebt have received little more than a slap on the wrist.

The Greens urge Labor to support our bill to implement the outstanding recommendations of the Royal Commission, to terminate the disastrous welfare suspensions system now, and deliver justice on behalf of the victims of Robodebt.

Robodebt was an intentionally malicious invention; designed to attack the most vulnerable of our citizens. There needs to be serious sanctions on those who perpetrated this knowingly, cruel and dishonest policy. Hold them to account at L the very least.

There’s a lot of righteous outrage in Australia about Optus’s repeated failures with triple zero emergency calls with possibly 4 related deaths. Calls for heads to roll.

I would just like to remind Oz that 2030+ deaths were linked to LNP Morrison et al Robodebt. No heads have rolled.

Get them all.

And I get it, so did I. I wanted nice things too. But I put my life on hold and flushed any semblance of a career banging on about Robodebt for six years. So yeah, I’m ok to be mad when they think Robodebt would’ve just magically been resolved without us. Without the many

We know about Robodebt because recipients 'blew the whistle' on their debts to concerned community activists, who were the first ones to raise this publicly.

Let me be 10,000% clear, this is because welfare recipients were the ones who were targeted and victimised by Robodebt.

Few scandals better illustrate the cost of government secrecy than robodebt.

But the newly proposed FOI bill will make it harder for the public to scrutinise the government and easier for secrecy to prevail
