A closer look at the Channel Nine poll asking people if they support the extension of #COVID19 restrictions in Melbourne. The spike of 160,000 'no' votes this afternoon is a bot attack - it instantly stopped without tapering off and is a consistent incline. #IStandWithDanAndrews Image
The results prior to the bot attack show wide support for the extension of restrictions (as you'd expect). Image
The results after the bot attack where the results were flipped. Image
UPDATE: The poll no longer appears on the Channel 9 website.

There's a bunch of trolls and commentators saying they're voting 'No' to get Albo out of the lodge — so here's a great big thread of all the times in the last 100 years a PM has quit over a lost referendum (hint: ZERO): #auspol
4 September 1926

To authorise the creation of authorities to control the terms and conditions of industrial employment.

Result: Not carried (43.50%)

PM: Stanley Bruce — 1923-1929 (didn't quit)
4 September 1926

As media figures frantically try to misrepresent two more horror polls for Peter Dutton, here's a brief thread of all the times News Corp and Nine have declared Albo's honeymoon is over. Enjoy. #auspol

Here's how the Liberal Party's plan to sabotage Indigenous Australians will look: Dutton will try to deceptively rebrand their geographically diverse voice to 'The Canberra Voice' — it's a nod to Trump politics, intended to muddy the waters and take Aussies for fools. #auspol
The 'No' campaign will “borrow” Indigenous artwork and feature it in ads to try to disguise the campaign as authentic and create the false impression it's predominantly led by Indigenous Australians. It will go to great effort to hide who is really behind the 'No' push.
It will continue to deceptively claim that detail is “missing” or being “hidden” — despite that being 100% false. The campaign will also use quotes from anonymous First Nations Australians which will be impossible to verify (and could be completely made up).

BREAKING: Moira Deeming has assured an organiser of the rally in Melbourne that she “never condemned” them or “KJ” (Posie Parker) — just hours after John Pesutto claimed she “condemned” comments by anti-trans activists she attended a rally and post-rally meeting with. #auspol
Pesutto today said the condemnations made by Deeming were “the most important part of this”, when justifying his backdown on her expulsion. Before changing his mind, Pesutto had previously said it would be “a great failure of leadership if I didn't take this action”.
Deeming's comments throw a major spanner in the works just before Pesutto is scheduled to appear on #abc730 — it is not yet known if the interview will be live (uh-oh) or pre-recorded.

FACT CHECK: Is the government really doing nothing to slow the spread?

THE CLAIM: Critics say the government has “given up” or “caved to big business” and is “doing nothing” to slow the spread.

VERDICT: False. Read on...
Australia is in the grip of a Winter wave and many people are sick. Hospitals are under pressure and while vaccines have allowed us to get as close to 'normal' as pandemic life allows, there are tragically many dying and, sadly, many deaths could be avoided with vaccines.
Vaccines are available to all Aussies over 5, and it is vanishingly rare to have a genuine medical reason to abstain. Vaccines are the reason we're not seeing death tolls many-fold higher, and unvaccinated people are massively overrepresented in hospitals and morgues.
