Walter Sofronoff knew material shared during Bruce Lehrmann prosecution inquiry was confidential, Federal Court hears msn.com/en-au/news/aus…
ACT Integrity Commission says #Sofronoff gave documents to journalists knowing they posed a significant risk to Drumgold’s career. “It wasn’t an accidental disclosure, it was a knowing disclosure”. Who was protecting #Lehrmann and why. #Toowoomba theguardian.com/australia-news…

It is genocide. It is ethnic cleansing - the removal of a people. The essential truth of the rolling war crimes that constitute the Gaza tragedy from Israeli journalist Gideon Levy writing in Israeli paper Haaretz. johnmenadue.com/post/2025/07/i…
I’d not have expected this from the Daily Express ! Now, how about some Australian newspapers, if they can pause just a moment from fretting about Real Estate, Albo and the footy…
Australians are dying waiting to receive Homecare packages & we're hearing report after report about bed block. The XBench asked govt to bring forward 20k packages to help with the 87k backlog but the Minister said no. I will keep pushing & this inquiry will gather the evidence
Trump-backed clergy overturn Washington state law requiring the reporting of child abuse After his involvement with Epstein should we be suprised 🤔 msnbc.com/msnbc/amp/show…
“Nothing unusual” says @AlboMP. That’s is, there’s nothing unusual about $800M more in cash being sent to US shipbuilders, bringing the total gift (so far) to $1.6B - with no guarantee of sub delivery and no refund possible. Trump must think we’re absolute suckers #AUKUS #auspol
Scott Morrison's "Truth in Testimony" declaration to the US House of Reps hearing on China. Australian media please note his fiduciary interests in the subject matter and perhaps report that as a rider to any article.
Good move Minister @JasonClareMP re reduction in HECs debt. But to make Australia a smarter country we need to eliminate uni fees for all eligible Australians. See the Scandinavian model.
Today, I’ll introduce legislation to wipe every HECS debt by 20%.

Is an appeal by #sofronoff on @ACTIntegrity Commission findings of corruption just an opportunity for tame media to headline his claims for innocence? How can he seriously claim his actions didn’t trash integrity of the inquiry #auspol #Lehrmann region.com.au/walter-sofrono…
If a new Tasmanian government wants to fix the Hobart stadium debacle, a citizens' assembly might restore what's been missing from that process, @bernardkeane writes. crikey.com.au/2025/07/21/tas…
Useless. How about publishing a national list of known sexual offenders. That might be a start. Longer paid maternity leave would keep kids safer for longer #auspol theguardian.com/australia-news…
#Sofronoff had not “acted in good faith”, his actions “undermined the integrity of…processes & fairness & probity of proceedings to such an extent as to…have threatened public confidence in integrity … of public administration…serious corrupt conduct theguardian.com/australia-news…
The economy is like a large ship, slow to respond to helm movements. The majority of its board don’t understand this; ignoring data showing inflation is in retreat and the economy is soft, and believing unemployment at 4.1% is causing inflation 🤦♂️. #auspol michaelwest.com.au/interest-rates…
