The murderous disaster of Robodebt

Dave, I'm not having a dig. You're mid 20's and a bit overweight (which is hardly abnormal), you have Asperger's, ( so does bill gates) and you may well have other issues I'm not aware of and you don't have to share unless you want to.

Yes, you have disabilities, but you aren't unemployable. if you believe that you are unemployable, that's a state of mind. There is jobs you could do and do well. Whether you'd want to do them, again, is a different discussion.

I don't want to really expand on this.

I just don't sit at home and do Nothing as some might think.

I help my Mum with her Charity Work she does and I also help looking after my Sister 2 Twins that are about 15 Month Old.

Also I am 31 so not in Mid 20's. Though be nice IF I was

Thirty one isn't mid-twenties.

Mid-twenties is around thirty seven.

Some insight into how the government used News Corp papers and other right-wing media outlets to curry support for the now (I hope) thoroughly discredited Robodebt scheme. Interesting to revisit the discussion in the early pages of this thread (some of whose participants were clearly getting their info from these same sources) in light of these revelations:

The Royal Commission into Robodebt has heard from witnesses, relatives of people who have suicided when the Morrison Government at the time knew it was illegal. It’s much much worse than most of us thought at the time.

Obviously I’m not shy in holding the previous Morrison Government to account but after reading some of the evidence I was tame.

Morrison needs to resign from Parliament and apologise.
Porter needs to go….wait on
Tudge needs to apologise and resign (well he did the latter)
Robert the Liberal party and Hillsong fundraiser should stay as he’s one of the best weapons Albanese has. What a creep. The audacity of this ex minister and current piece of scum.

Seems increasingly likely that this will be the major legacy of the Abbott/Turnbull/Morrison governments: a repellently inhuman domestic policy to match the repellently inhuman policies that they carried out on our borders.

Completely agree that all involved should never set foot in Parliament House ever again.

If only you felt that other leaders were held to account when their decisions have lead to hundreds of people losing they lives, then your thread might have some authenticity.

Morrison and the Liberals should be held accountable for the use of private security in Victoria's hotel quarantine debacle that directly led to the deaths of 768 people.

How one could vote for those murderous Liberals who oversaw this is beyond me.

By the way, it'd be just as bad if you guys started a thread about hotel quarantine and WPT or I jumped in to say "what about Robodebt?" But two wrongs don't make a right, and I think you should start (or bump) that thread if that's what you want to discuss.

It’s not the only failure of WPTs hero and dear leader that has lead to people’s deaths.

Morrison got the ass.
Brumby got the ass.
Andrews got an increased majority

^ That would be "led".
