Covid vibes as Leaders step up in separate press conferences to outline actions they are taking to deal with the crisis. I will put my country, my State, my city first.

Just watched a live interview with Nancy Mace on CNN where she discussed today’s classified briefing. She said she didn’t want to divulge details because of the classification level, but she did say she opposes taking Kharg Island and using U.S. troops to control the price of oil.

The draft redistribution of the ACT's three federal seats was published this morning and I have completed my analysis. Voters were swapped in both directions on the Canberra-Bean and Canberra-Fenner borders, but it has minimal impact on margins. #auspol www.tallyroom.com.au/64607
