Between an information access submission and a whistleblower webinar this evening, I went for a walk on a 10 km beach. I was the only person on the beach. Gotta love Australia! ❤️🇦🇺 Submarine Beach, Mid North Coast, NSW. #WorkFromRoam

OMG - they took the kid’s iPads and iPhones away! All they were left with were some rocks, a deep river, some developing (and supervised) risk assessment skills and a level of courage. It was like being back in the 1970’s. Shoalhaven River, South Coast, New South Wales.

Congratulations to Senator David Pocock for the most genuine (and appropriate) reaction to a question time answer that I’ve seen in a long while. #FOI #auspol

In Norway they tax the fossil fuel industry and give kids free university degrees; in Australia we subsidise the fossil fuel industry and send kids into massive debt to get a degree. The major parties aren’t interested in fixing this. Instead they’re rushing around spending money we don’t have on poorly thought through programs - just to buy your vote. I want to fix all this for South Australians (and Australians).

Here’s Admiral Mead in June 2024; a man without so much as a tiny understanding of project risk, running a $368B program on hope alone. #AUKUS #auspol

The Govt has committed to buying 3 US Virginia Class subs, without first negotiating a price🤦‍♂️. Yesterday it was revealed they also haven't negotiated a warranty for the second-hand subs🤦‍♂️. Would officials personally buy a car like that? No! #dumb #OnlyYOURMoney #AUKUS #auspol

@DFAT looked very uncomfortable when David Shoebridge raised the issues of a new Defence Cooperation Agreement with Indonesia and Defence Minister Prabowo Subianto's hideous human rights record at estimates last week. Not something they wanted to talk about. #FOIs lodged! #auspol

Freed from the shackles of Labor Party discipline, Fatima Payman is emerging as a new, independent political talent. She may surprise a lot of people. #auspol

Bills tabled! Jacqui Lambie and I are pushing to end the obscene salaries paid to university vice-chancellors and fat cat bureaucrats. We’ll drag them into parliament to interrogate them on why they think they should retain their million dollar salaries. #FatCats #auspol

Yesterday, while opposing the set-up of a secret Defence oversight committee that'll only have members from the duopoly responsible for the current acquisition debacle, Senator David Shoebridge gave this excellent summary of the mess our naval procurement is in.👏#AUKUS #auspol

Hey Anthony Albanese, if I request security info using #FOI, it’s exempt from release under the current law. If an anonymous person requests security info using FOI, it’s exempt from release under the current law. You’re gaslighting to extinguish transparency! #StickToFacts #auspol

Great question 💪 from Senator David Pocock on Ministers shredding docs! A perfunctory answer from Minister Senator Murray Watt. It’s pretty simple - Mark Dreyfus has to issue a direction to Ministers that it is unlawful to shred their docs and it must not occur. #FOI #auspol
