BASTARD CAP ON TIME. 1/14
Craig has spent the best part of the last couple of days abusing people in poverty/poverty activists (much like Poe, Sarky, Dawson et al), with the seeming intent of becoming the next superstar of auspol.
But all is not as it seems. 2/14
Craig states he's on DSP, and his wife receives a carer's allowance - and that if he received the 60k as a lump sum, he wouldn't get a reduction in payments.

His DSP is for being "allegedly held hostage during an English lesson at Townsville Correctional Centre three years ago" which worsened his existing PTSD.
Every article (paywalled, sadly) talks about it being due to workplace bullying by staff though? 4/14

Craig however is a man of many talents - including being the treasurer of the Australian Democrats, sadly there's no info on if that's a paid position - but one position in particular draws a certain amount of interest.
Managing Editor, China News.

Let's check out China News, shall we?
So, his own profile states he founded and ran it, and it dives into his history including a factiod about his home town of Goulburn. Relevant later.
For now though, notice it's called "China Daily Mail"?

Weirdly, the first two results are of some kind of controversy about Craig!
Oh my, well we'd better see what's going on in here, shouldn't we?
7/14
First link off the rank (chinadailymailscam.wordpress.com), and this is interesting, turns out he uses multiple aliases.
I wonder what we'll find if we try to search for his actual full name?
... oh well now. 8/14
The Supreme Court Library of QLD has a few documents.
This one definitively links Craig Hill as Kenneth Craig Hill via Sarina Russo, RE workers comp w/ Big Issue from 2006. Matching his injury claims from his own site. 9/14
sclqld.org.au/caselaw/QIRC/2…
So, we now know 100% his actual name is Kenneth Craig Hill - publicly available information from the Supreme Court Library.
What else has he been up to then? 10/14
He has a bit of a history of playing silly buggers, misinterpreting what people say or flat-out ignoring them, to the point of refusing to collect registered mail or claiming phone interference (but still hearing just fine). 11/14

Checking the ABN on his website, it all matches the timeline of various events described on that wordpress site.
Although it's funny how he whitewashes certain incidents on his entertainer profile. 12/14

Let's move on to link 2 craighillchinadailymail.blogspot.com.
This covers in *much* more detail some of the acts Craig/Ken undertook, as well as documenting some of his legal battles with Big Issue (funny how he doesn't talk about that either). It's worth a read to get into his mindset. 13/14
It's no surprise that Ken, serial grifter and cowdust artist, would once again attempt to rise to prominence.
This thread wouldn't have been possible without some very interesting info sent in by concerned parties, so thank you all! 14/14
All credit to @MelgotCourt - we now have solid proof that Ken lied in his newspaper interviews when he claimed he left the jail after being assaulted by a prisoner.
Wonder what the news sites'll say about this?
@MelgotCourt Paging @7NewsAustralia @9NewsAUS @sunriseon7 @DailyMailUK @Yahoo @dailystarnews @TheSun @seniorsdiscount
You interviewed "Craig Hill" about his lotto win, where he claimed to be on disability benefits due to being held hostage at Toowoomba Prison 3 years ago.
He lied.
@MelgotCourt @7NewsAustralia @9NewsAUS @sunriseon7 @DailyMailUK @Yahoo @dailystarnews @TheSun @seniorsdiscount Oh, yeah @newscomauHQ as well - you interviewed this guy and posted his fake story about being held hostage at Toowoomba Prison.
@MelgotCourt @7NewsAustralia @9NewsAUS @sunriseon7 @DailyMailUK @Yahoo @dailystarnews @TheSun @seniorsdiscount @newscomauHQ Additional.
1- a tweet he made then swiftly deleted claiming websites that've existed for years were magically created by the AUWU as a timewarp conspiracy.
2- more context confirming it's all him.
3- rape apologist PRGuy gets in on the action (of course they'd love a grifter)
@MelgotCourt @7NewsAustralia @9NewsAUS @sunriseon7 @DailyMailUK @Yahoo @dailystarnews @TheSun @seniorsdiscount @newscomauHQ Kenneth has a long and storied history with the courts, whether lodging claims then abusing court staff, ignoring their attempts at contact, or refusing to pay.
Every one of these cases matches his very own timeline.

@MelgotCourt @7NewsAustralia @9NewsAUS @sunriseon7 @DailyMailUK @Yahoo @dailystarnews @TheSun @seniorsdiscount @newscomauHQ A very long history.

Confirmation of him working under Senator Andrew Bartlett.

@MelgotCourt @7NewsAustralia @9NewsAUS @sunriseon7 @DailyMailUK @Yahoo @dailystarnews @TheSun @seniorsdiscount @newscomauHQ Kenneth is a serial grifter and provocateur, no different to Avi Yemini.
Followers mean nothing, except they do.
@MelgotCourt @7NewsAustralia @9NewsAUS @sunriseon7 @DailyMailUK @Yahoo @dailystarnews @TheSun @seniorsdiscount @newscomauHQ His goal is simple.
Traffic, which equals money.
Drive traffic to his website for the ads, and to get the boost to his "campaign".
@MelgotCourt @7NewsAustralia @9NewsAUS @sunriseon7 @DailyMailUK @Yahoo @dailystarnews @TheSun @seniorsdiscount @newscomauHQ Hang on a sec.
"30 years lived experience".
It's 2023, so 30 years = 1993 to now.
Liar liar Kenneth.
@MelgotCourt @7NewsAustralia @9NewsAUS @sunriseon7 @DailyMailUK @Yahoo @dailystarnews @TheSun @seniorsdiscount @newscomauHQ Surely a week at most until Shanks gets Craig on his podcast, yeah?
@MelgotCourt @7NewsAustralia @9NewsAUS @sunriseon7 @DailyMailUK @Yahoo @dailystarnews @TheSun @seniorsdiscount @newscomauHQ Sorry Craig, about 90% of those were me scraping your site onto the wayback machine.
@MelgotCourt @7NewsAustralia @9NewsAUS @sunriseon7 @DailyMailUK @Yahoo @dailystarnews @TheSun @seniorsdiscount @newscomauHQ How'd your last court case go Kenneth?
@MelgotCourt @7NewsAustralia @9NewsAUS @sunriseon7 @DailyMailUK @Yahoo @dailystarnews @TheSun @seniorsdiscount @newscomauHQ Two things to note here.
1- Kenneth is obsessed with getting back into the courts in order to fuel his persecuted grifter schtick.
2- Prattling on about follower counts once again, I thought they didn't matter hey Ken?
Each day that he's unable to get the media attention he craves makes Kenneth Craig Hill go further deeper down the rage spiral.
None of this is actually true, but it's great for attention purposes.
No great surprise that he's also vile towards women.
Jansant is 100% right. You can only trace phone calls that are active at the time.
If anyone who blindly supports Kenneth used google for 5 seconds they'd find this out from any phone providers' website.
Is anyone surprised that the perpetual troll of many suspended accounts Dante/Beachie/Revardin has latched onto this latest person?
Since Poe's no longer driving content after all, he needs someone new.
What's more, Pascal himself is still lurking around, as you can tell by this RT.
Who else is gleefully hanging on the latest centre-right serial grifter?
Dr TERF Sheep, of course!
Here's the kicker: Kenneth Craig Hill started out wanting to find the truth about welfare/social security.
Someone completely disconnected from his current twitter stoush did the investigation and politely posted the link to him.
He blocked them and hid the reply. Why?
AusPolMate (formerly otheraudi & SuxHypocrisy, the digital blackface account, and still murdochboycott & jimmylock1968), known for stalking and abusing women activists chimes in with support for Kenneth, and doesn't care that he's a serial grifter or fraud.
But back to the main character of AusPol.
After being the one that caused him to be suspended, Kenneth Craig Hill (of chinanews/chinadailymail scams) crows about it.
I hate to say this, but get him, Emma.
Just to note - only 1 of the two people publicly involved in this situation has posted their call logs.
It's not Kenneth.
