Are these the same Brethren that the Morrison government awarded massive contracts to during Covid?
This tonight on 4Corners is important viewing - it is my view that the Plymouth Brethren should be investigated for their oppressive practices to members and those who leave the church, and for whether it’s appropriate they are tax exempt and have charity status

Barrister charged $5k-an-hour for class action that got workers as little as $10k
They are meant to deliver justice for ordinary Australians, but class actions are being used by law firms to profit at the expense of some of the most vulnerable members of society.

Former PM Scott Morrison secretly appointed himself to five ministries, botched vaccine rollout, left Aussies stranded overseas, oversaw Robodebt, and championed AUKUS without transparency.
Now he’s awarded the nation’s highest honour for “eminent service.”
