Of course, the same crowd that also opposes any fair revenue from the gas industry ripping off the country.

Just remember, today is as good as any to start to finally start the #BoycottMurdoch you've been planning.

Quite a disturbing read on the influence and behind-the-scenes meddling of vested interest money in democracy. You won't find this in any of the #BoycottMurdoch and related media (sadly, including the sanitised #OurABC in Australia):

Whilst this is an article about US politics, the parallels to Australia are eerie. Not so much on meddling with the electoral system, as luckily, we have an electoral commission. But non-transparent bodies are buying both sides of the major parties.

Probably all you need to know about Adelaide Writers' Week being cancelled. Sad to see the event cancelled, but absolutely the right decision by fellow writers, and I take my hat off to them. Shame on the SA Premier - a stain on his record.

Time to wake up and cancel #MurdochPress and #BoycottMurdoch - get rid of the brown stain on the Australian media landscape #auspol

If News UK hacked Gordon Brown’s communications while he was Chancellor and / or PM, this is why they were afraid

GOTCHA

If News UK hacked or otherwise illegally monitored the communications of a sitting Prime Minister they are not safe

In addition to any punishments they should be banned from owning or running any UK media

Peter Dutton always makes the same face when he talks, so I made him a pina colada.

#ScottyFromMarketting uses taxpayer money to pop up dirty and expensive coal-fired power plant so his coal mining mates can continue to sell more coal!
