It’s great to see progress now being made on this but as @thebda.bsky.social point out it amounts to a dentist seeing little over 2 extra urgent cases a month & no new money behind it. 14 years of Tory failure has left 13 million people unable to dental access care

It is true that the sub judice contempt rule needs to be reformed as it is out of step with modern digital reality, however in the meantime the best way to ensure Alan Jones gets a trial at all (let alone a fair one) is to shut up about the criminal charges against him.

Shame on those Senators who voted to censure Lidia Thorpe for demanding accountability for her people from the Crown in whose name so many loathsome acts were committed.

Here's a piece I wrote earlier for The Shot about the galling obsequiousness of so many.

This is what truth-telling looks like  - The Shot
Lidia Thorpe's parliamentary protest is truth-telling in the purest terms. Australia had better get used to this.
