#NSWICAC Berejiklian says that Sarah Cruickshank adivised her in 2018 not to have anything more to do with Maguire. "Obviously I didn't follow that particular advice ... "

#NSWICAC Asked if she had told Cruickshank the relationship was over, Berejiklian says she can't recall, but that she thinks she said it had been "on again off again". "Certainly I wanted to make it clear how close we were."

#NSWICAC Robertson: "Did you lie to Ms Cruickshank about the timing of the relationship?"
Berejiklian: "No. I made it very clear that it was a very close relationship."

#NSWICAC Robertson: "Surely the question of whether the relationship was ongoing, or had finished before you were premier had a very big impact on the political impact of that information?"
Berejiklian: "No, I don't accept that...I don't think it would have made any difference."

Is PM Scott Morrison a liar? It's a question that is being asked now on the international stage.

A Crikey investigation reveals the answer is, "yes", the PM is a systemic and unremitting public liar.

And we've got the proof:

Back in May, we published #ScoMosDossier – a list of lies and falsehoods delivered by the prime minister since he took office, on issues of national importance.

Since then, the list has grown.

Here's why we published the list:

Today we have 39 lies and falsehoods – and we'll be adding more later today because these lies just keep coming from Scott Morrison.

Here's his first lie about Australia's climate targets #climateaction #auspol #scottytheliar

#NSWICAC Robertson refers to her statement the weekend after Maguire's 2018 ICAC evidence, that he had "let down" his constituents, state and party. Robertson asks if by then she suspected he had engaged in corrupt conduct. She says no.

#NSWICAC She is asked how that can possibly been the case, she says "because that wasn't the person I knew ... "

#NSWICAC Berejiklian insists that if she had any specific concerns about Maguire, she would have reported them. Robertson asks about *everything* that has come to light this morning and Friday. Berejiklian restates that she simply trusted that Maguire had done nothing wrong.
