@cori_crider @nyunt_pye @AdaLovelaceInst @ImogenParker @Foxglovelegal Hi @cori_crider!100% of your NHS cases conceding pre-permission just shows they dont have the resources to engage in a long drawn out legal battle.

There are so many uses of machine learning& automated allocation in social commissioning models in local govts across the UK 1/12 @cori_crider @nyunt_pye @AdaLovelaceInst @ImogenParker @Foxglovelegal They use it to speak to NHS, allocate resources& predict need for services-built by private analytics consultancies

Esp in integrated planning systems bridging local authorities, NHS& other agencies with responsibilities for pub health, #ML is used to curate info for people 2/12

@LorettaJRoss on how she arrived at the call out/cancel culture on social media

Lessons from 70s women’s movement and the civil rights wing of the human rights movement - this used to be called ‘trashing’ and punishment in order to get accountability.
#LSECallingOut @MediaLSE ‘Let’s learn to turn to each other rather than on each other’ while disagreeing on strategies & tactics #LSECallingOut

Performance activism that weaponises privilege and activates identity to “punch sideways” is not very productive

@LorettaJRoss is very critical of ‘wokeness’

@SRW_ANU @HonJulieBishop @MrKRudd @shiroarmstrong @SharonFrielOz .@HonJulieBishop thanks for an excellent panel on Geopolitical leadership in a post #covid world. We ran out of time before the gender & leadership question could be addressed.

@larissawaters 1/5 The LNP with the same old toxic masculinity and a culture of impunity. There is only way to shut this down - this systematic abuse &silencing of women at the federal level of politics -CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT @leighsales @Lisa_Wilkinson @Milliganreports #auspol #IBelieveBrittany @larissawaters @leighsales @Lisa_Wilkinson @Milliganreports 2/5 Criminalising coercive control& an independent inquiry is a starting point. The only way to have a lasting solution is to have a class action lawsuit with bipartisan support& testimonials from women who have worked in the APS or as staffers @leighsales @Lisa_Wilkinson #auspol

@larissawaters This can start by fixing the casualisation of the APS. It is really hard for jnr staffers on 2 yr/fixed term contracts to speak up or even admit to the violation. Their priority is to get their contracts extended etc. Navigating the toxic masculine Canberra culture is a minefield @larissawaters @larissawaters When you get the chance ask the same questions to Minister Reynolds again using scenarios from the workflow a) "what would you do now if a complaint like this were to be brought to you today?". It becomes part of the public record (Hansard).
