Dear #PennyWong, #MarkDreyfus et al:
1. Was assange found guilty of a crime by the US? (hint, it google 'Assange Saipan')
2. What was he found guilty of? (Hint2 the ABC reported at the time "conspiracy to obtain and disclose national defense information,")
3. Shouldn't you be hmmm, how should I say this, ahem concerned that Trump's Defence Minister couldn't keep a secret to save himself?
4. More than you were ever concerned about Assange and #Wikileaks? hmmmmm?

Also

5.What in all the actual fuck are you fucking doing the fuck about fucking AUKUS you fucks and fucking Five fucking Eyes fucking too? Sever military links with these useless cocks now.

BREAKING: MCBRIDE PUBLIC INTEREST DISCLOSURE CASE DISCONTINUED. @MurdochCadell legal team pulled out after the Court refused to allow expert witnesses. Simply appalling. No justice here. They will wait for the trial.

@augustusbrown

Is this the I'm reading this as the first sledge-hammer level change in the public service that would act to prevent future #RoboDebt-like illegal actions by the #AustralianGovernment.

Show me what I've missed.

#HowManyDied

I'm not counting the $3000 fine that could be applied to Australian public servants who refuse to give evidence.
AIU that' s around $1.50 for each RoboDebt death. FU #MarkDreyfus.
And, AIUI, they could just quit and avoid the fine entirely.

@tonycart

A $3000 fine - let's see, death toll of RoboDebt remains secret, but 2000 has been estimated.

If so the fine would be about $1.50 for each RoboDebt triggered death.

As an excercise in supposedly recreating confidence in government, this insulting stuff from #MarkDreyfus is a garbage fail.

Looks like blowing the whistle on the Australian Tax Office doing over small businesses might get you life in prison.
And Boyle accuses the ATO of being "callous", after taxpayer threats of suicide were ignored by senior staff.
Brings back memories of #RoboDebt suicides and reported multiple replies of #SoSadTooBad to a social worker's concerns.
Ethics collapsed across the #APS?
