National #Integrity Commission update!

In Feb, we spoke with His Honour Anthony Whealy QC and Federal Independent for Indi @helenhainesindi. Watch that discussion here:

We caught up with Anthony again last week for an update: .
The Gmt committed to introduce a #FederalICAC in 2018 and again in 2019 prior to the last federal election. But:

❌ no Gmt bill has yet been tabled in the federal parliament;
❌ the Gmt has made no allowance in the recent federal budget for implementing an integrity body; and
❌ we have heard nothing in response to the many submissions on their model for a federal integrity commission.

By contrast, @helenhainesindi has introduced her own private member's bill but the Gmt has not allowed parliament to debate it.

@DaveSharma handing out flowers on #IWD2021. Intentions may have been good but unfortunately the reaction to his tweet demonstrates that he is simply not in touch with #WentworthWomen and does not understand the seriousness of the issues #auspol

To many, this feels like a trivialising, belittling and tone-deaf response to a watershed moment for women in Australia. For #Wentworth voters it is a national embarrassment. #EnoughIsEnough
There’s no point having a “nice guy” representing #Wentworth. We need a representative who listens, understands and then acts. The issues currently facing Australia are serious. Women’s rights to be treated fairly, with equity, with respect, to be safe in their own homes #Justice
