I was calling for thinkers to give the @ABCaustralia a big miss twitter.com/i/lists/156112… seems like #afternoonbriefing's opposition, #Insiders' one-sider, #QandA's letmetellyouwhattothink, @abcnews' repetition, & #breakfastnews' irrelevance are doing my job for me 😜😂
No answers #auspol
Let me tell you @QandA #auspol knows I'm right
Sack the Board & Ita #auspol are #friendsoftheABC

.@palaceletters the idea Hurley didn't know the ministries had been kept secret is ridiculous
"The last of these b appointments… made more than a year after the 1st, so clearly by then the GG did know that they weren't being made public bbc.com/news/world-aus…
"The Aus public need to know whether #Hurley counselled the #PM against the moves, & why he didn't disclose them himself."
The govt has already announced an inquiry into #Morrison's actions, but Dr Hocking wants it to look at the #GG & his office too.
"If the inquiry is to find out what happened in order to fix what happened, it would be extremely problematic to leave out a key part of that equation."

My best buddy, a lawyer in London, spoke to me today about the debacle. I’m surprised, she said, the Australian government did the right thing in regards to Djokovic. My answer:
hey are like Boris; they have no basis upon which they do the right thing; they always act according to political stuntism. Everything they do is for the wrong reasons. They are in there just to rip off the system of democracy for their own benefit.
So, if they ever do the right thing, it is to fix a mistake.

@vivchook Thanks, Vivienne. I have been waiting for the term furrow, as you can see, to come up since 1983. But it never does, until now, that is. Amazing how we have all accepted these numbers, just because the Mother Country told us to, without asking, Y? a symbol of our learned humility
@vivchook even the cricket never chirps, does it?
@vivchook And in answer to you #QandA, I think you may be onto something there. A furrow is certainly an agricultural #thread of the sixteenth century, which seems to be a long time before the only one to #Twitter were in the trees.

furrow #artwiculate's 220 yards; the distance you can drive a plough, pulled by an oxen, in a heavy soil, before he needed a rest. Then you turned him round & began another furrow. If you did that all day, the width of the furrows completed was 22 yards.
At the end of the day the area of th furrows was 22*220=4840 sq yards, commonly used to #artwiculate an acre. The oxen was tied up at night with a chain. To tie up th oxen at the end of th day, you had to go & get your chain. A chain is therefore 22 yards.the width of the furrows
To get from the town to new new furrows you had to stop to rest the oxen 8 times. This is 220 yards * 8 = 1760 linear yards which is used to #artwiculate 1 mile.
