@CaroDiRusso CoVID taught us: 1. Most pollies enjoy making draconian rules, on poor advice by people with limited experience. 2. Powerful groups (building workers, actors, sportsmen, pollies) are allowed to break rules. 3. Policies for elderly/vulnerable are neither humane nor effective.

Farage should inform Labour MPs and the EU that this act will be reversed on DAY ONE of a Reform government.

@MarkoMatvikov NDIS budgeting seems largely divorced from changes in medicine. (Both LNP and Labor chose to sideline medical expertise in NDIS.) Fraud of one type or another is the biggest overrun - but deterring this, when rewards are so high, is hard.

@drmcopeman Could it be true that: a) such advancements and changes in types of treatments were allowed for in the original budget; and/or b) this isn't the only (or even biggest) component of the overruns?

Labor and Greens have no intention of properly addressing NDIS fraud. All they’ve committed to is a growth target of 8% in the short term - and now 5-6% in the long term. These little tweaks that lack urgency aren’t in line with community expectations. Shutting down this investigation is protection of a program with fundamental failures.
Pete Z@PeteZogoulas

34 Senators voted NO to One Nation’s inquiry into NDIS fraud. Right now, the system is $52B… and it’s projected to hit $100B by 2030. And they don’t even want to investigate it. These are our tax dollars and they’re happy for it to be rorted. This is supposed to help the most vulnerable Australians. So why shut it down? @DrewPavlou

@MarcusH_01 Khrushchev presages this question in memoirs (20 years before Soviet Union collapsed). He notes you need a certain kind of man to run effective branches of command and control economies - devoted, inspiring of loyalty, and pragmatic. After WW2, Russia produced fewer and fewer.

This legendary composer counted every single coffee bean. Out loud, and in front of his guests... Ludwig van Beethoven, composer of the Ninth Symphony, the Moonlight Sonata, and approximately one thousand pieces of music that still make people cry 200 years later, refused to let anyone else make his morning coffee. Not because he was a control freak. Well. Also, because he was a total control freak. But specifically because he had a rule: exactly 60 beans per cup. No more, no less. And he counted them himself, one by one, every single morning. His biographer Anton Schindler documented it in 1840: "He allowed sixty beans for each cup, and lest his measure should mislead him to the amount of a bean or two, he made it a rule to count over the sixty for each cup, especially when he had visitors." He had a cook and employed housekeepers. He had the staff, but he still counted the beans himself. Modern coffee science says 60 beans weigh roughly 8 grams, which is almost exactly the dose in a Nespresso pod. The man who composed the Fifth Symphony accidentally invented the perfect espresso ratio in 1810 by counting beans like a man who had completely lost the plot. His doctor eventually banned him from coffee. Beethoven ignored this completely and kept drinking it until the very end. © Eats History #archaeohistories

@PeteWargent Not sure QLD Police will be happy devoting a large amount of time to pursuing teens on e-bikes. They won’t be able to tell from a distance if many teens are old enough (and have licence) to ride. Trying to catch teens will trigger new dangers. Courts will likely be lenient.

@clarescastle Wonder whether the defence at the upcoming trial of 5 men for allegedly damaging property related to @Keir_Starmer might be interested in issuing a subpoena to Mr McSweeney re backed-up content from his stolen phone.

Thinking about what would historically be on Mr McSweeney’s phone apart from his Mandelson machinations. Durham. The dry cleaner bike collision. Labour Together. Undeclared Donations. Sue Gravy. Voicecoachgate. Briefing against Cabinet Ministers. An absolute treasure trove….
Clarissa Reilly@clarescastle

@Steven_Swinford Presumably any journalist with whom Mr McSweeney was regularly in touch would have needed to remind him of their number, if all his information was lost, as claimed, versus being auto-transferred to his same day new device? They’d recall that contact and explanation from him.

This smells as fishy as a Somalia trawler. There is a whole dedicated IT security team in the rear basement of 10 Downing Street who constantly ensure that staff phones and IT kit are secure. Inconceivable they were not rapidly made aware of the alleged phone theft by the CoS private office. Logs would exist of this. And when new device issued, 10DS security team would liaise with Met and OGD to assess whether opportunistic thief or targeted foreign agent operation with the potential to compromise some of the most senior figures in government. This McSweeney equivalent of ‘the dog ate my homework’ is going to need a bit more work.

BREAKING   Scotland Yard has confirmed that Morgan McSweeney reported the theft of his phone to them on October 20 last year   They took down ***the wrong address*** and assumed the offence had taken place in East London rather than Westminster   As a result they could not identify a suspect and the case was closed   The Times has been told officers were 'too busy' to speak to Morgan McSweeney directly about it   Having established the error following the report by The Sun on Sunday they have amended the report   Worth bearing in mind that this was the theft of the phone with the prime minister's number, the number of every cabinet minister, sensitive WhatsApps, messages, emails… you name it. This was NOT an ordinary phone Starmer: “On Monday, 20 October police received a report from a man in his 40s alleging that his phone had been snatched.   “The incident was recorded as having taken place in Belgrave Street, E1.   “A review of the allegation, including a consideration of whether there was available CCTV, did not identify any realistic lines of enquiry. The investigation was subsequently closed.   “In the course of responding to a recent media enquiry, we became aware that the address was entered incorrectly at the time of the initial call and should instead have been recorded as Belgrave Road, Pimlico.   “Having identified this error, the report will be amended and the assessment of whether there is available evidence revisited."

@JEChalmers Sadly, living costs continue to rise under Labor - and a $50 a week tax cut isn’t sufficient to make this up. Jim, tell your Comms team they need to start telling the whole truth.

1 year ago today the Liberals confirmed they‘d vote against Labor’s tax cuts for every taxpayer. Australians would be $50 a week worse off if Angus Taylor had his way on repealing Labor's tax cuts and cost of living relief. Labor is delivering a tax cut this year and another next year, as well cheaper medicines and more bulk billing to help with the cost of living.
