The government wants to have the powers to do the same thing Tudge did with ARE VETERANS info - http://www.abc.net.au/news/2017-03-02/government-wants-new-power-to-release-veterans-personal-info/8320268 What the gently caress is going on with all this? Is there an actual endgame here or do they really just want to have something to shut down people thinking about making public criticisms? How can they think this looks like anything besides an insanely unethical mess?

“Processing Mr Dreyfus’s request was a long and exhaustive task and had to be done on top of the attorney’s ministerial and other responsibilities,” so of course it took 3 years! Think of all that exhausting work George had to do to fulfill his responsibilities as a minister! The department line seems to be that no record of any meetings doesn't mean that the meetings didn't happen, because if the meetings were spontaneous they wouldn't be entered in the diary. This sounds like a very reasonable reasonable explanation that I definitely believe. It also still admits that he had no plans to meet with legal aid groups, and if he ever did it was probably a result of them chasing him down.

People already think that TAX = BAD so it's pretty easy for the Minerals Council to just run ads with weatherbeaten men in Akubras reminding people of this and get people reflexively mad about stifling Jobs and Growth.

Barnaby wants to take the Leadbeater's Possum off the endangered list so they can cut down more trees in Victoria and save 250 JOBS. I'm not sure what he thinks he's doing or why he thinks people will go along with his idea to threaten a very cute animal. Should have picked an uglier animal to try and justify the likely extinction of.

They won't be committing any more crimes in their stolen cars if they're dead or in the ICU  The Australian ran a front-page story about Sally McManus supposedly faking her CV by lying about being on the Macquarie Uni student union council in the 90s. Turns out they were actually being lazy idiots by not noticing or bothering to find out that the student union and the student council were two separate things, and she was in the union, not the council. Top quality journalism right here.

Apart from the usual 'special snowflake liberals can't handle their hurt widdle fee-fees???  , all I can get from that is 'if we can't abuse immigrants why bother letting them in at all?' A true reflection of the Australian zeitgeist.
