🧵I would like to remind the #MSM including abc730 that Julia Gillard and Bill Shorten were “dirt filed” by the Liberal Party about alleged issues about their honesty and integrity BEFORE they entered Parliament at a #RC BOTH were exonerated. #Dutton is being questioned on /2

Headline: Norwegian air defence system shoots down 900 Russian threats. Makes you think Norway is being bombarded by Russia. In fact, Norway's NASAMS system is in use by 16 countries only one of which is being attacked by Russia: Ukraine. The system has a 94% success rate.

Another headline: Old people die 60% more often ... No no no. People, regardless of age, only die once. Try: Elderly people 60% more likely to die ...

Donald Trump pretends he didn't call Volodymir Zelensky a traitor bc he's abt to meet Zelensky to thrash out a minerals deal. Trump & his gang are totally untrustworthy, void of morals, like Australia's LNP coalition. Such people are principle reason for loss of faith in govts.

European leaders support Ukraine & its president Volodymir Zelensky following public row between him & US president Donald Trump. If they'd done that 3 years ago & moved to stand behind Ukraine on its borders with Russia -- this war might not hv started. politico.eu/article/volody…

ABC Canberra journo misrepresents the situation, again. He referred to LNP's $25,000 tax deduction for small business "lunches for employees" which Labor characterised as "lunch for bosses". In fact, it covers lunches for staff, suppliers & top customers.

I think it's time Trump's relationship with Russia's Putin was properly investigated. Can't recall USA voting for cosy relationship with sworn enemy of Capitalism. Trouble is, Trump is shutting down or prosecuting any agency that has or will oppose him.
