Williamstown - Apollo Bay
A disgraceful radio performance by Vic A-G Sonia Kilkenny. Trumpeting ânation-leading hate lawsâ while refusing to comment on specific examples, saying itâs a matter for the police! A farce!

If Albanese allows Marles to join the Peace Board we need a motion of no confidence on the floor of Parliament. We can not allow Albaneseâs cowardice to make Australia complicit in this madness any longer. We are firmly on the wrong side of history right now.

Corbin Middlemasâ âinterviewâ with Gerard Healy at the cricket tea-break was a puff-piece disgrace. Corbin allowed Healy to peddle untruths uninhibited without once questioning why a Royal Commission is so important. And all on our national broadcaster

If you're a reporter, please stop referring to RFK Jr and his cronies as "vaccine skeptics." They're not skeptical. Skepticism would be fine. Skeptics look at evidence and can be persuaded. These people are extremist anti-vaccine cranks, and that's how news organizations should describe them.

It says something that there is no public clamour for a government response to the Daily Telegraphâs âundercoverjewâ operation. This is because the only source of public clamour in this country is news corp.
