Morrison has no answer. So he hands it over to the JEN MASTER at Peter Costello’s invitation.

What does Scott Morrison stand for? He would say he stands for freedom of religion. But this week he proved incapable of delivering a legal protection for it.

He would say he stands for the protection of school kids from discrimination. But this week he showed he was prepared to allow transgender kids to suffer discrimination.

He would say he stands for a united government. But this week the government suffered a mutiny when five Liberal MPs crossed the floor of the House of Representatives to vote with Labor and the crossbench.

Morrison says Australia’s koalas are doing extraordinarily well compared to koalas overseas 

This is an insult to all Australian taxpayers.

The company behind Australia’s offshore processing regime on Nauru made a $101m profit last financial year – more than $500,000 for each of the fewer than 200 people held on the island.

Rard No 3, the holding company for Canstruct International, which has the government contract to run the Nauru offshore processing centre, has more than $340m in cash and investments, according to its most recent accounts filed with the corporate regulator.

When Canstruct International was initially awarded the Nauru contract in 2017 the company had 

$8 in assets.

Dominic Perrottet qld covid tests 
Why a vote for independents is a wasted vote and a vote for the ALP is a vote for change
 
The Liberals went into the by-election with a margin of 6.9 per cent.
A loss in Bega would push the Perrottet government further into minority and would force it to rely more heavily on the votes of independent or minor party MPs.

NSW Liberals hit with big swings in by-election
