Pt1/4 "I don't accept the premise of your question." A lot of questions on the Religious Discrimination Act to follow. Basically, Scott Morrison is not implementing anything outside of the RDA. He blames Labor for it not being passed in the parliament. #ausvotes

Pt3/4 "I don't think you are across the legislation."
"I think I am."
Scott Morrison says the RDA will trigger the law reform review for LGBTIQA+ students & maintains Australians of religious faith are discriminated against every day. #ausvotes

Pt1/2 In which Scott Morrison is asked again if he's a buffoon for describing the NSW ICAC a kangaroo court, stands by his comments & proceeds to explain how state & federal jurisdictions are different. #ausvotes
Pt 2/2 "I don't care if barristers & lawyers up there in Macquarie Street - I don't mean in the parliament - I mean sitting around in the barristers' chambers disagree with me." Scott Morrison has never had much truck with barristers & their jabots & all the rest of it. #ausvotes
Scott Morrison deep in Campbell Newman country now who described the Qld judiciary as living in ivory towers. Then came the backlash culminating in Gary Crooke QC & later Tony Fitzgerald QC appearing on ABC News. There was no way back. #ausvotes brisbanetimes.com.au/national/queen…

The bond between Queensland & Victoria is much greater than we know. Qld's greatest premier was TJ Ryan. He was a Victorian. He died in office in 1921. So loved by the Qld people, funding was raised to erect this statue. There are no statues to any other Qld premiers.
Queensland Premier TJ Ryan rests in Toowong cemetery in Brisbane. He was Queensland's greatest premier & the nation's greatest premier. He instigated many of the rights Australians have today. 100 years on, he is with us in these difficult times.
What would Queensland Premier TJ Ryan think now? He'd be along the same lines as Victoria Premier @DanielAndrewsMP & Qld Premier @AnnastaciaMP. I don't think he would be very impressed by the PM or the NSW Premier at this point.

Pt 1/5 A train wreck in five parts. Gladys Berejiklian scoffs at Victoria as she's pressed to define essential work for the lockdown.
"Victoria did it very successfully.
"No they didn't." #nswpol #springst
Pt 2/5 The media continues on the essential work definition subject. Why not suspend some government infrastructure projects to set an example for people? Gladys Berejiklian puts the responsibility back on citizens. #nswpol #springst
Pt 3/5 Media continues putting it to Gladys Berejiklian that by not defining essential work it makes employees powerless. Still not getting it. #springst #nswpol
