Federal government should initiate a wholesale review of ABC governance, charter, complaints process, independence etc.
What’s been revealed in the past week is an indictment on basically every layer of management. And it’s only been revealed by this case. Imagine what we don’t know.

![Peter Dutton is asked whether it was a mistake to try and shut down Mark Dreyfus, the son and grandson of Holocaust survivors in question time yesterday.
Dutton says:
“He was closed down because he made a suggestion that we were politicising anit-Semitism, he was completely out of order and if he had the decency that you would expect from the first Law Officer he should have withdrawn that without us requesting him to do so.
It was a [slur], it was misplaced, he apologised to the Prime Minister* on the front bench afterwards, and so he should.
Mark Dreyfus has largely been missing for 15 months**. I think if you speak to people within the Jewish community, there are a lot of people who would be that commentary of the contribution or lack thereof made by the Attorney-General given the rise and flourish of anti-Semitic conduct we have seen***. It is appropriate and the right response for somebody regardless of who they are who, seeks to say that we are politicising what I think is an incredibly important issue and made that point felt.”
*We are seeking confirmation of this – but I didn’t see any of that on the broadcast.
**Oh wow, this is low. Dreyfus’s wife of 44 years, Deborah Chemke, passed away in November 2023, which is 15 months ago. This was after a long and difficult cancer battle. Anyone who has lost someone knows how much it takes from you, and I do not have personal insight into how Dreyfus has been coping, but I do know that everyone in the parliament knows what he is going through. So for Dutton to then accuse him of ‘largely been missing’ for 15 months, and dress it up as concern from the Jewish community is a low, low act. Even for Dutton.
***Mark Dreyfus is a Jewish man. Who lost family in the Holocaust and was raised by survivors of the Holocaust. Dreyfus is very involved in the Australian Jewish community who is now being lectured by Dutton on how the Jewish community feel during this period, while claiming it is outrageous to suggest that he …](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ebyirfmcml2wmydrexhxu27t/bafkreigp4l2kvuwtc5j54cxtlenc6lysd3gqewhvoxtwkpepr7ejy5ntly@jpeg)

This is an extraordinary picture. It shows the measure of household income per capita used to produce the Henderson Poverty Line. The post-COVID decline has us at an average income level not seen since 2009.

“raw milk is a reasonable choice for some people” is a good example of being so open minded your brains start to leak out of your ears
Oster writes that “With more information, we provide room for people to drink raw milk but also vaccinate their kids. Which is, basically, a reasonable choice.” Oster claims she is being far more nuanced, but I don’t think there’s enough nuance here. Raw milk is not “reasonable” for many people.
