When Barnaby made his comments it was in an effort to deny human rights to others, so I'm pretty loving okay to have his hypocrisy spread over every front page in the land.

Well yeah but it would be even better if he had been imprisoned for it I guess IMO but like you I find it hard to muster much outrage over this particular situation, and would enjoy it escalating far further - maybe time to start talking to everyone employed by BJ-in-the-bush over the past couple of decades and look for any other evidence of affairs, harassment etc?

Much as I think Molan's a disgusting racist poo poo stain, he was in no way responsible for putting Australian troops into harms way in Afghanistan and Iraq or for Operation Sovereign Borders that was work by other war criminals.

He is however Erin Molan's father. And thus it seems in the Rugby League community at large, responsible for a war crime.

Lol if you think my complaint about Iraq was increasing the chance of upf members getting blown up by ieds, also he consistently and publicly argued for more boots on the ground and I can’t find any example of him refuting at any point any of the multiple times he has been introduced on panels as an architect of OSB

quote:

The Victorian Department of Premier and Cabinet has launched an investigation into who in the department is editing the Wikipedia page of Labor's leader in the Senate, Penny Wong.
Wong has two daughters with her partner Sophie Allouache. Under South Australian law, two women have been able to register as the coparents of children since June 2011.
The change made to Penny Wong's Wikipedia page several times over the past three months removes mention of Wong's partner giving birth to "their children", meaning Wong's and Allouache's children, and replaces it with "her children" for just Allouache. Some of the edits also mention that Wong "has no children".
The changes were captured by a Twitter account devoted to tracking anonymous Wikipedia edits from Australian government IP addresses.
The changes were either quickly caught and changed back by registered Wikipedia editors or IP addresses within Australian Parliament House.
The edits to remove Wong's parenthood from her Wikipedia page claim that they are "correcting inaccuracies", despite Wong being legally recognised as the parent of her two children.

Not to pick on you but could you give some examples of this because I couldn't find any. I mean, she bothers to watch him on Q&A and I think that's insanity, but she doesn't do more than report his words, and I would expect a Turnbull shill to take a more approving stance than that. She can hardly avoid talking about him when his leadership was a constant issue. And I agree it isn't helped by playing horse-race journalism with the Opposition at this stage after giving Abbott his head for so long.

you're probably quite right, i think i'm misremembering pieces she wrote quite some time ago. i have a recollection that soon after the '16 election she was one of the ones who were certain that turnbull would lead the lnp and the country on the sort of sensible, compromise policies that would save us, but it's probably tainted by my general disdain for journalism in australia.

The military's extremely integrated into college and professional football, which probably works a lot better than a classical march

Also if the department of defence can have a say in the script and cut of your movie they'll loan you free military hardware and consultants and such

I think she was genuinely hoping for a change from Abbott but like everyone else she's been very much mistaken. And that probably accounts for her bleating on and on about how the media landscape has changed because she really can't cope with being utterly wrong like most of the CPG she so clearly thinks she's better than. I take seriously her claim of very nearly quitting a year ago as a measure of her recognition that the people in Parliament House are of far lesser stature and how difficult that would make her job as political editor above everything else that goes with the CPG.

If they get the podcast going again this year, it's worth a listen, not just because she gets interesting opinions from the usual suspects on it, but how you can hear that she's not as cool and collected as she seems from the printed page, and you also get to hear from Gabrielle Chan.
