I see that last Wednesday’s appalling exchange between Senators Abetz and Fierravanti-Wells and @wesachau@redrabbleroz@yun_aus is in the news again today, so for those new to it here are the details.
A thread...
Last week the Senate Foreign Affairs, Defence and Trade References Committee was hearing evidence in its Inquiry into “Issues facing diaspora communities in Australia”. Quite the irony. The exchange starts on page 5 of Hansard (page 9 of the PDF). drive.google.com/file/d/1Pmiakd…

Excellent News 1: As I type this we’re at 72% of the first target, for those first five podcast. Can we get it all the way up by the end of tonight? I THINK WE CAN. Go on, click through now. YOU CAN DO IT. stilgherrian.com/endofspring2020
If you’ve missed the link for this, it’s stilgherrian.com/endofspring2020. Also, @jeamland’s pledge and others bring us to 59% of the first target. This is marvellous!
@jeamland What pleases me most, @jeamland, is that it looks like the five-podcast series is probably in the bad, and that means we’ve a very good chance of reaching the BAD SEX target as well.
Last night I launched a crowdfunding campaign for MOAR PODCASTS and some BAD SEX. This thread has all the details, or just click on the link. stilgherrian.com/endofspring2020
We’re already 29% of the way to the first target so please give it a push and spread the word.
