Inglorious Inertia: The Albanese Government and Julian Assange
The sham that is the Assange affair, a scandal of monumental proportions connived in by the AUKUS powers, shows no signs of abating. Prior to Prime Minister Anthony Albanese assuming office in Australia, he insisted that the matter dealing with the WikiLeaks publisher would be finally resolved. It had, he asserted, been going on for too long.
Since then, it is very clear, as with all matters regarding US policy, that Australia will, if not agree outright with Washington, adopt a constipated, non-committal position. "Quiet diplomacy" is the official line taken by Albanese and Australian Foreign Minister Penny Wong, a mealy-mouthed formulation deserving of contempt. As Greens Senator David Shoebridge remarks, "'quiet diplomacy' to bring Julian Assange home by the Albanese Government is a policy of nothing. Not one meeting, phone call or letter sent."
Kellie Tranter, a tireless advocate for Assange, has done sterling work uncovering the nature of that position through Freedom of Information requests over the years.
"They tell the story - not the whole story - of institutionalised prejudgment, 'perceived' rather than 'actual' risks, and complicity through silence."
The story is a resoundingly ugly one. It features, for instance, stubbornness on the part of US authorities to even disclose the existence of a process seeking Assange's extradition from the UK, to the lack of interest on the part of the Australian government to pursue direct diplomatic and political interventions.
Former Australian Foreign Minister Julie Bishop exemplified that position in signing off on a Ministerial Submission in February 2016 recommending that the Assange case not be resolved; those in Canberra were "unable to intervene in the due process of another's country's court proceedings or legal matters, and we have full confidence in UK and Swedish judicial systems". Given the nakedly political nature of the blatant persecution of the WikiLeaks founder, this was a confidence both misplaced and disingenuous.
The same position was adopted by the Australian government to the United Nations Working Group on Arbitrary Detention (WGAD), which found that same month that Assange had been subject to "different forms of deprivation of liberty: initial detention in Wandsworth prison which was followed by house arrest and his confinement at the Ecuadorean embassy." The Working Group further argued that Assange's "safety and physical integrity" be guaranteed, that "his right to freedom of movement" be respected, and that he enjoy the full slew of "rights guaranteed by the international norms on detention."

Barack Obama set to reel in $1 million during Aussie speaking tour as he visits Sydney Opera House with wife Michelle
Fans have flocked to catch a glimpse of Barack and Michelle Obama at an iconic Sydney location, ahead of an Aussie tour with a hefty paycheck.
Former US President Barack Obama could make more than $1 million for his brief speaking tour of Australia, accompanied by wife Michelle.
The famous power couple have been spotted around Sydney following an audience with Prime Minister Anthony Albanese at Kirribilli House on Monday.
The ex-leader reportedly discussed issues such as the global economy and Russia's invasion of Ukraine, before posing for photos with Mr Albanese against the backdrop of Sydney's Harbour.
A flurry of photos have since emerged of the couple at different restaurants and iconic venues in the Harbour City. The pictures are rare for the pair, who until Monday had not been spotted together in five months.
The "Evening with President Obama" tour will kick off in Sydney on Tuesday night to a sold out crowd of 9,000 seats at the International Convention Centre.
Aussies hoping to hear about Mr Obama's "path to success" splashed $200 for a standard seat, while platinum spots cost $895.
Mr Obama will then jet to Melbourne on Wednesday evening, where the capacity at John Cain Arena is a further 10,500 people.
With a minimum take of upwards of $1.8 million, the former US leader is set to make more than $500,000 per talk.
The event, hosted by former deputy leader and foreign minister Julie Bishop, will take attendees on a journey of "resilience, perseverance and triumph" as the 44th President of the US shares his journey in the oval office.

Summary
In February 2006 Foreign Minister Alexander Downer signed an MOU with Clinton that if read up shows an Australian Government preparedness to spend up to $25M in matched spending with the Clinton Foundation in HIV/Aids aid work in China, Vietnam and Papua New Guinea over 4 years.
The Papua New Guinea funding agreement was signed in July with the Clinton Foundation. In August the Australian Government made a call for tenders or expressions of interest in the work already contracted to the Clinton Foundation.
The due date for tenders was 3 October 2006. By then the Clinton Foundation's sham incorporated entity in PNG was already 3 months old.
The post contract evaluation report, commissioned at a cost of $100,000 is damning of the contract and performance.
There is no statement of project goal or purpose, thus no indicators at that level, no clear Program Area objectives (with indicators) and no targets.
A Funding Agreement was signed in July 2006 between the government of Australia and CHAI. This outlined the terms and conditions of the arrangement between AusAID and CHAI for the implementation of CHAI in PNG. This agreement states that "the parties agree to monitor the Program against the Program Milestones and evaluate it against the Program Outcomes." The defining document against which this occurs is the Program Workplan 2006- 2009. As noted above there is no stated objective/outcome in this document (or any documents subsequent to this) for the whole project (and associated indicators). Outcomes or objectives for each of the AoC are not articulated (thus no indicators provided). It is therefore impossible for this part of the agreement to be adhered to.
Now compare the $100K audit with the PR spin from Julie Bishop's Department to me yesterday.
The funding agreement for the PNG Clinton Foundation agreement 2006-2010 had specified outcomes, deliverables, budgets and conditions including the supply of audited Financial Statements. Australian Government funding was delivered as per the agreed schedule and milestones met under the terms of the agreement.
Who's responsible now?
On 30 September 2015 General the Honourable Sir Peter Cosgrove AK MC, Governor General of the Commonwealth of Australia made an Administrative Arrangements Order pursuant to Section II of the Constitution. Part 9 of the order sets out the matters dealt with by The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, including
relations and communications with overseas governments; and,
international development co-operation; and,
international development and aid
On 19 July 2016 Julie Bishop took the prescribed oath and was commissioned to be the Minister for Foreign Affairs.

'Culture of Cosiness': colossal conflicts of interest in Defence spending blitz
Extraordinary amounts of money. When combined with the fundamental undeclared, and undealt with, conflicts of interest that have now become routine in Australia's defence sector, the potential for corruption has increased markedly. Corporate influence on government policy has been cultivated for years by a phenomenon at which the arms trade excels: the revolving door. This is how the revolving door works. Defence-related politicians and public officials and military personnel are regularly offered high-level, high-paying positions with weapons companies upon retirement. This provides a strong incentive for those in public service, with an eye to their future, to seek the best interests of these companies. Military industry executives in turn are welcomed into government as experts, consultants and employees.
Corruption is defined as "the abuse of entrusted power for private gain, be it grand, petty, or political corruption" in the 2019 Australian research report, Governing for Integrity. The report says 'undue influence' is a marker for corruption, and that undue influence and the 'revolving door' are two key problems "eroding public confidence in parliamentarians and ministers, and weakening the fundamentals of democracy".
Take the case of former defence minister Christopher Pyne, who discussed his future with EY Defence while still in parliament, then nine days after leaving politics accepted a position with them. Pyne now also runs his own lobbying firm, lectures as an 'industry professor' at the University of South Australia, and is chair of the advisory board and investment committee of a new investment fund promoting high returns via investment in selected defence and cyber stocks.
Pyne's post-politics career made a mockery of the ministerial standards and lobbying rules and led to a senate inquiry, which included former foreign minister Julie Bishop, who only months after leaving parliament joined the board of multinational aid contractor Palladium.
The Liberals' Peter Reith left his ministerial desk and popped up a few days later at Tenix, then Australia's largest defence contractor. EY also secured the services of Labor's Kim Beazley within a year of his political departure, along with former Labor defence minister Stephen Smith. Beazley joined the board of Lockheed Martin in between his public roles as US Ambassador and WA Governor. (The job description and the budget of the WA Governor has been expanded to enable Beazley to advocate for defence industry.) After a three-year association with EY, Smith has recently accepted directorships with cyber security companies ArchTIS and Sapien Cyber.

Q Research General #18328: I Have Not Yet Begun To Ebake Edition
Gillard, Bishop & Hillary
Australian governments, both Labor and Coalition, have thrown more than half a billion dollars in foreign aid over the past few years at a pair of "charities" associated with US Democrat powerbrokers and acolytes.
The latest give-away was $140 million, announced by Abbott's Foreign Minister Julie Bishop in June, 2014. The $140 million pledge went to an amorphous, scandal-plagued US-based education and gender-parity charity chaired since February, 2104, by none other than our ex-PM Julia Gillard,[1] concurrently a prominent member of Hillary Clinton's official Presidential campaign. The charity is called Global Partnership for Education (GPE).
The Abbott government did not object to Gillard's appointment to this multi-billion charity. It could have, given Gillard's unusual behaviours, personally and in her legal capacity, at Slater & Gordon, while for four years in the early 1990s de facto partner of legal client Bruce Wilson, an alleged fraudster ($1m cited) of both employers and unions. The Royal Commission into Trade Union Corruption urged charges against Wilson but described Gillard's work on his legal facilitation documentation as only "a lapse of professional judgement". Commissioner Dyson Heydon had harsh words about Gillard's style of testimony. Both Gillard and Wilson strongly deny wrong-doing.
Why Julie Bishop shifted taxpayers' $140 million to Gillard's GPE is a mystery. Was Bishop preparing the way for her own translation in due course to a well-remunerated international sinecure? She has as one template: ex-NZ Prime Minister Helen Clark stepping up to run the United Nations Development Program as Administrator in 2009. Clark was the first woman in that job, which she got a year after her nine years as PM. Many super-top jobs now have "Woman's turn next" written on them in invisible ink.
Whatever was in Bishop's mind, how did she get a tick from Abbott for such a huge gift to GPE? Abbott had a huge PM's Department precisely to alert him against doing dumb stuff. And if his office watchdog Peta Credlin was so astute and all-controlling, why didn't Credlin raise a literal red flag?[2] Even if Gillard's on-going politicking in the US escaped Credlin's attention, surely our Ambassador in Washington, Labor's Kim Beazley, was taking note and sending home despatches about it?
GPE is one Clinton/Democrat-oriented charity the Coalition has backed. The other is ex-President Bill Clinton's murky Clinton Foundation, closely entwined with GPE. The Clintons left the White House broke in 2001 (thanks largely to legal bills and payouts to women Bill manhandled; Donald Trump hyperbolically calls Bill "one of the worst abusers of women in U.S. history"). Today, the Clintons have hundreds of millions in their personal bank accounts, with Hillary running a billion-dollar presidential campaign.[3]
Centrepiece of their financial recovery is the Clinton Foundation "charity" and its spin-offs.[4]
And here's the best bit: just as Australian governments (Labor and Coalition) donated $460m in total to the Global Partnership for Education, so also did Australian governments (Labor and Coalition) deliver $75m to the Clinton Foundation and its satellites in the past decade. That is, our political masters have shipped well over half-a-billion dollars of our foreign-aid money to a couple of high-living US charities run by the Democrat "progressive" set.

Australian billionaire James Packer's stunning ties to Israel's elite revealed: Casino mogul 'kissed the feet of former president' and bought house next to prime minister Netanyahu, court witnesses reveal
Billionaire Australian casino mogul James Packer is at the centre of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's corruption trial after the pair forged an unlikely friendship.
The embattled 53-year-old bought a seaside mansion next to Mr Netanyahu, kissed the feet of former Israeli President Shimon Peres and was nicknamed 'James Bond' by a man who would later go on to take the reins of the spy agency, Mossad.
Stunning court documents also shed light on the fragile mental state of the former Crown Casino boss who flirted with the idea of converting to Judaism.
'There was tremendous chemistry forged between us. He decided that I'm the most impressive person he met,' Mr Netanyahu said in evidence, reported local magazine Haaretz.
'He brought his first girlfriend here (model Miranda Kerr) and afterwards his second girlfriend (singer Mariah Carey). A deep bond formed between us. He told me I was the person dearest to him.'
Mr Packer first travelled to Israel in 2013, where he was enticed by President Netanyahu - or Bibi as he's often called by close friends - to buy a neighbouring property halfway between Tel Aviv and Haifa.
Witness statements outline that Mr Netanyahu seduced Packer into buying the mega-home so he could use it himself when he wasn't there.
Mr Netanyahu had his own key and even stored grates of expensive champagne there for his wife Sara.
It is suggested that the controversial Israeli leader wanted to 'benefit from the friendship', according to his former bureau chief, and tried to convince him to buy an Israel newspaper that was critical of the leader.
Those alleged dealings, along with many other gifts from Packer, are now a major part of Mr Netanyahu's bribery and fraud trial which could see him ousted from office after over 15 years in power.
Mr Netanyahu has given evidence denying all the allegations against him.
Those close to the matter say the alleged plot to buyout the Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper didn't go to plan.
After reporting the bad news to the Netanyahu's, Mr Packer went back to his hotel room and burst into tears sobbing to his personal assistant Hadas Klein that: 'Sara Netanyahu shouted at me'.
'He took it really hard,' Klein told investigators.
'He very much admired them and loved them, and he's a sensitive guy. A good soul with a huge heart, who needs warmth and love.
'In the morning we took him to the airport and he threw up violently from the pressure.'
Ari Harow, a former bureau chief of Mr Netanyahu, told the inquiry: 'It was clear that the relationship from his Netanyahu's point of view was in order to benefit from this friendship'.
A housekeeper for Mr Packer's Israel mansion told the bribery and fraud hearing the two high-profile men would lounge on the veranda together and smoke lavish cigars.
Mr Packer also entertained the likes of former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, the former Australian foreign minister Julie Bishop and Wolf of Wall Street Jordan Belfort at the luxurious home.
During his repeated visits to the promised land, Mr Packer became close to many of Israel's elites.
Documents reveal that when the former Israeli President Shimon Peres visited Mr Packer's home, he dropped to his knees and kissed his feet as a show of respect.
The colourful businessman also grew so tight with the country's National Security Chief Yossi Cohen, he nicknamed Mr Packer 'James Bond' and 'No 1 Spy.'

Twitter permanently suspends QAnon account belonging to friend of Scott Morrison for 'harmful activity'
BurnedSpy34 and two other associated accounts have been removed by the social media giant in its crackdown on conspiracy content
Twitter says it permanently suspended a QAnon account belonging to a family friend of the prime minister, Scott Morrison, for "engaging in coordinated harmful activity".
Twitter is in the middle of a broader crackdown on QAnon content and is attempting to reduce the amplification of accounts spreading "clear and well-documented informational, physical, societal and psychological offline harm on our service".
BurnedSpy34, a prominent and prolific member of the Australian QAnon scene, was recently permanently suspended.
Australia's conspiracy theorists are increasingly energised, but police crackdowns may be counterproductive

The man behind the account, Tim Stewart, regularly tweeted content associated with the QAnon conspiracy theory to his tens of thousands of followers, including bizarre and unfounded claims about Alexander Downer and Julie Bishop, among others.
"The account you mentioned below has been permanently suspended for engaging in coordinated harmful activity," a Twitter spokeswoman said.
Last year, the Guardian revealed that the owner of the account was a long-standing family friend of the Australian prime minister and his wife, Jenny. The families' association was driven by the friendship between Stewart's wife and Jenny.
His wife worked on the prime minister's staff in a publicly funded position but not in any policy or advisory capacity. There is no evidence she shares her husband's views. It is not clear whether the employment arrangement is ongoing.
Twitter is understood to have removed 7,000 accounts in the past several weeks for breaching its rules against spam, platform manipulation, and/or ban evasion. Its broader actions are expected to reduce visibility for 150,000 accounts globally.

"Clinton, Gillard, Shorten using $460m of our money to kill off Australian coal industry"
Why have Australian governments tipped money into Hillary Clinton's Clinton Foundation helping to kill our coal industry? That it gave Julia Gillard a job and effectively a platform to continually spruik Hillary Clinton for president shows just how this very dodgy Foundation works.
Miranda Devine:
The Australian taxpayer shovelled at least $88 million into the Clinton Foundation and associated entities from 2006 to 2014, reaching a peak of $10.3 million in 2012-13, Gillard's last year in office.
On the Clinton Foundation website, AusAID and the Commonwealth of Australia score separate entries in the $10 million-plus group of donors, one rung up from American teacher unions.
In 2009-10 Kevin Rudd handed over another $10 million to the foundation for climate research, part of $300 million he squandered on a Global Carbon Capture and Storage Institute.
Gillard also donated $300 million of our money to the Clinton-affiliated Global Partnership for Education.
Lo and behold, she became chairman in 2014 and has been actively promoting Clinton as president ever since - in a campaign video last December slamming Trump, in opeds trumpeting the next woman president and in appearances with Clinton spruiking girls' education.
The Abbott government topped up the left-wing organisation's coffers with another $140 million in 2014, bringing total Australian largesse to $460 million, according to a press release from Foreign Minister Julie Bishop.
And yet, apart from the beautiful friendship with Gillard, what did Australia get from the Clintons for all that cash?
A whole lot of trouble is what.

Trump: Do you know four years ago Malcolm, I was with a man who does this for a living. He was telling me, before the migration, that if you were a Christian from Syria, you had no chance of coming to the United States. Zero. They were the ones being persecuted.
When I say persecuted, I mean their heads were being chopped off. If you were a Muslim we have nothing against Muslims, but if you were a Muslim you were not persecuted at least to the extent - but if you were a Muslim from Syria that was the number one place to get into the United States from. That was the easiest thing. But if you were a Christian from Syria you have no chance of getting into the United States. I just thought it was an incredible statistic. Totally true - and you have seen the same thing. It is incredible.
Turnbull: Well, yes. Mr President, can I return to the issue of the resettlement agreement that we had with the Obama administration with respect to some people on Nauru and Manus Island. I have written to you about this and Mike Pence and General Flynn spoke with Julie Bishop and my National Security Adviser yesterday. This is a very big issue for us, particularly domestically, and I do understand you are inclined to a different point of view than the Vice-President.
Trump: Well, actually I just called for a total ban on Syria and from many different countries from where there is terror, and extreme vetting for everyone else - and somebody told me yesterday that close to 2,000 people are coming who are really probably troublesome.
And I am saying, boy that will make us look awfully bad. Here I am calling for a ban where I am not letting anybody in and we take 2,000 people.
Really it looks like 2,000 people that Australia does not want and I do not blame you by the way, but the United States has become like a dumping ground. You know Malcolm, anybody that has a problem - you remember the Mariel boat lift, where Castro let everyone out of prison and Jimmy Carter accepted them with open arms. These were brutal people. Nobody said Castro was stupid, but now what are we talking about is 2,000 people that are actually imprisoned and that would actually come into the United States.
I heard about this - I have to say I love Australia; I love the people of Australia. I have so many friends from Australia, but I said - geez that is a big ask, especially in light of the fact that we are so heavily in favour, not in favour, but we have no choice but to stop things. We have to stop. We have allowed so many people into our country that should not be here.
We have our San Bernardinos, we have had the World Trade Centre come down because of people that should not have been in our country, and now we are supposed to take 2,000. It sends such a bad signal. You have no idea. It is such a bad thing.
Turnbull: Can you hear me out Mr President?
Trump: Yeah, go ahead.
Turnbull: Yes, the agreement, which the Vice-President just called the Foreign Minister about less than 24 hours ago and said your administration would be continuing, does not require you to take 2,000 people. It does not require you to take any. It requires, in return, for us to do a number of things for the United States - this is a big deal, I think we should respect deals.

Australia: FISA related
AUSTRALIAN SECRET INTELLIGENCE SERVICE - BLACK OPS ARM OF THE AUS DEEP STATE?
This was the particular Australian spy agency that assisted in the attempted coup to overthrow POTUS.
This agency has a very controversial history of clown activity overseas and its activities are DIRECTED by the Australian gov through the department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT).
Notably - Alexander Downer ran DFAT from 1997-2007.
This means that the prime minister and the minister of foreign affairs in particular knew and gave the green light for ASIS to assist in the coup - None other than Malcolm Turnbull and Julie Bishop.
Q asked the question of "who owns AUS? " and what is interesting is that ASIS was being exposed in the 90s for being a rogue entity and that the organisation was being purged of officers and spying on their own citizens among other things (pic related). Could it be that the UK was involved in removing the white hats in ASIS and thus gained controlled of it and it's activities?
ASIS runs the "black ops" on behalf of the Australian deep state overseas and given legal permission to do so under an act that was passed when PM John Howard was in office. These clowns are able to ASSIST in violent or paramilitary activities but not involved in the actual execution of the operation (pic related).

I had mixed Israeli high technology transfers and defense contracts with my high profile "hate speech" case and all hell broke loose.I spent three years in jail and was raided twice more for "causing offense via a carriage device." The charges were so laughable my lawyer burst out laughing. But this is Western Australia, "The Wild Wild West", and they do as they please. They're all close personal friends of Benjamin NETANYAHU.

[FINAL - Application under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) 1982]
To the Australian Information Commissioner/Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade,
Subverting the democratic process of the People of The United States of America, by a Foreign Government/Entity or individual, is considered an 'Act of War' by an 'Enemy Combatant'.
Now that the Mueller Report has been tabled by William Barr, the blockade to Australian FOIA transparency, ought be removed.
Hence I humbly request ALL information pertaining to potential spying by the Australian/UK Governments and other Entities/individuals, upon the Presidential Candidate and subsequent POTUS, Donald J Trump.
The request is reasonable given the gravity of the matter involved. For similar reasons, it can not be considered to be interfering with the minister's functions.
The predicate date searches required would be for documents/communications created from 1st January 2015 until 24th April 2019 inclusive - under section 15(2) of the FOIA 1982.
Please send the reply by email address only.
A) I seek all relevant cables, faxes, diary entries, notes, letters, memos, reports, emails, draft emails, Five Eyes Signals, telephone records and other communications - by, to, between and amongst, but not limited to the following Entities/individuals:
ASIO/ASIS/ASD/DOD/DIO/AGO

B) With regard to the Entity/Team posting on 8chan under the acronym QAnon or Q (Q level clearance in the US Department of Energy), I request NSC, ASIO/ASIS/ASD/DOD/DIO/AGO information in relation to the irrefutable mathematical/statistically significant association between Q Post and POTUS tweet delta's.
As you are aware, QAnon has posted vast quantities of military intelligence related to the above mentioned subversion. The relevance of a Q/POTUS association is therefore profound and of national interest. Co-ordination/collaboration with the US Embassy in Canberra is clearly mandatory prior to an association disclosure.
Whence, I seek all relevant cables, faxes, diary entries, notes, letters, memos, reports, emails, draft emails, Five Eyes Signals, telephone records and other communications - by, to, between and amongst, but not limited to the following Entities - NSC, ASIO/ASIS/ASD/DOD/DIO/AGO on the Q Post/POTUS tweet delta association.
C) Pertaining to A + B, I seek all relevant cables, faxes, diary entries, notes, letters, memos, reports, emails, draft emails, Five Eyes Signals, telephone records and other communications with regard to any D-Notice/gag/suppression order or suggested suppression directive by the Australian Government or any other Entity/individual to the Australian MSM.

Perhaps she was merely "acting on instructions" when she flew to London and Washington last year with her ministerial chief of staff, who had indicated that the Australian Foreign Minister would raise Julian's case and hopefully begin the diplomatic process of bringing him home.
Julian's father had written a moving letter to the then Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull, asking the government to intervene diplomatically to free his son. He told Turnbull that he was worried Julian might not leave the embassy alive.
Julie Bishop had every opportunity in the UK and the US to present a diplomatic solution that would bring Julian home. But this required the courage of one proud to represent a sovereign, independent state, not a vassal.
Instead, she made no attempt to contradict the British Foreign Secretary, Jeremy Hunt, when he said outrageously that Julian "faced serious charges". What charges? There were no charges.
Australia's Foreign Minister abandoned her duty to speak up for an Australian citizen, prosecuted with nothing, charged with nothing, guilty of nothing.
Will those feminists who fawn over this false icon at the Opera House next Sunday be reminded of her role in colluding with foreign forces to punish an Australian journalist, one whose work has revealed that rapacious militarism has smashed the lives of millions of ordinary women in many countries: in Iraq alone, the US-led invasion of that country, in which Australia participated, left 700,000 widows.
So what can be done? An Australian government that was prepared to act in response to a public campaign to rescue the refugee football player, Hakeem al-Araibi, from torture and persecution in Bahrain, is capable of bringing Julian Assange home.
The refusal by the Department of Foreign Affairs in Canberra to honor the United Nations' declaration that Julian is the victim of "arbitrary detention" and has a fundamental right to his freedom, is a shameful breach of the letter and spirit of international law.
Why has the Australian government made no serious attempt to free Assange? Why did Julie Bishop bow to the wishes of two foreign powers? Why is this democracy traduced by its servile relationships, and integrated with lawless foreign power?
The persecution of Julian Assange is the conquest of us all: of our independence, our self-respect, our intellect, our compassion, our politics, our culture.
So stop scrolling. Organize. Occupy. Insist. Persist. Make a noise. Take direct action. Be brave and stay brave. Defy the thought police.
War is not peace, freedom is not slavery, ignorance is not strength. If Julian can stand up, so can you: so can all of us.
John Pilger gave this speech at a rally for Julian Assange in Sydney on 3 March.

In 2009, the British Foreign Office concocted a "marine reserve" around the Chagos archipelago.
This touching concern for the environment was exposed as a fraud when WikiLeaks published a secret cable from the British Government reassuring the Americans that "the former inhabitants would find it difficult, if not possible, to pursue their claim for resettlement on the islands if the entire Chagos Archipelago were a marine reserve."
The truth of the conspiracy clearly influenced the momentous decision of the International Court of Justice.
WikiLeaks has also revealed how the United States spies on its allies; how the CIA can watch you through your I-phone; how Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton took vast sums of money from Wall Street for secret speeches that reassured the bankers that if she was elected, she would be their friend.
In 2016, WikiLeaks revealed a direct connection between Clinton and organized jihadism in the Middle East: terrorists, in other words. One email disclosed that when Clinton was US Secretary of State, she knew that Saudi Arabia and Qatar were funding Islamic State, yet she accepted huge donations for her foundation from both governments.
She then approved the world's biggest ever arms sale to her Saudi benefactors: arms that are currently being used against the stricken people of Yemen.
That explains why he is being punished.

WikiLeaks has also published more than 800,000 secret files from Russia, including the Kremlin, telling us more about the machinations of power in that country than the specious hysterics of the Russiagate pantomime in Washington.
This is real journalism - journalism of a kind now considered exotic: the antithesis of Vichy journalism, which speaks for the enemy of the people and takes its sobriquet from the Vichy government that occupied France on behalf of the Nazis.
Vichy journalism is censorship by omission, such as the untold scandal of the collusion between Australian governments and the United States to deny Julian Assange his rights as an Australian citizen and to silence him.
In 2010, Prime Minister Julia Gillard went as far as ordering the Australian Federal Police to investigate and hopefully prosecute Assange and WikiLeaks - until she was informed by the AFP that no crime had been committed.
Last weekend, the Sydney Morning Herald published a lavish supplement promoting a celebration of "Me Too" at the Sydney Opera House on 10 March. Among the leading participants is the recently retired Minister of Foreign Affairs, Julie Bishop.
Bishop has been on show in the local media lately, lauded as a loss to politics: an "icon", someone called her, to be admired.
The elevation to celebrity feminism of one so politically primitive as Bishop tells us how much so-called identity politics have subverted an essential, objective truth: that what matters, above all, is not your gender but the class you serve.
Before she entered politics, Julie Bishop was a lawyer who served the notorious asbestos miner James Hardie which fought claims by men and their families dying horribly with asbestos.
Lawyer Peter Gordon recalls Bishop "rhetorically asking the court why workers should be entitled to jump court queues just because they were dying."
Bishop says she "acted on instructions ... professionally and ethically".

Report: Julian Assange Receives Australian Passport
WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange is one step closer to possibly returning home after receiving an Australian passport, according to a UK newspaper report.
The Evening Standard revealed Friday that the Australian government has confirmed that WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has once again received an Australian passport. Officials at the Australian department of foreign affairs and trade stated clearly that "Mr Assange does have an Australian passport." The Londoner reached out to the Ecuadorian embassy in England where a staff member first stated "no comment" but then later added: "He has the right to do whatever he wants, but he doesn't move on. He could stay here for ever."
The Evening Standard notes that Assange has had a number of high profile visitors during his time at the embassy, stating:
Assange's passport had been held up by wrangling over whether it could be issued to him given that a warrant is still out for his arrest in the UK.
His UK lawyer, Jennifer Robinson, reportedly applied for a fresh passport halfway through last year.
Greg Barns, Assange's Australian lawyer, gave credit to former foreign affairs minister Julie Bishop for her role in securing the new document.
The Sydney Morning Herald reported Barns thought she had "gone to great lengths to ensure Mr Assange's rights as an Australian citizen were upheld by being granted a passport".
The Courage Foundation alleged that Assange's expulsion from the Ecuadorian embassy was imminent in January, putting Assange at risk of extradition to the United States. Australian barrister Greg Barnes, who acts as an adviser to Assange, praised Australia's foreign minister Julie Bishop who he said actively worked to ensure Assange received his passport. Barnes stated: 'The Australian Government does have a role to play in the resolution of Julian Assange's case."

Q Research General #6272: Think Mueller Edition
AUSTRALIA - POLITICS - RESIGNATIONS
Three Liberal Party Government Ministers have walked over the past week. None will contest the next Federal election which is due in 5 months in May. - all citing 'family' as the reason. The Liberal Party is Australia's rough equivalent of the US Republican Party. The resigning Ministers are:
- Kelly O'Dwyer - Minister for Women
- Michael Keenan - Minister for Human Services
- Nigel Scullion - Minister for Indigenous Affairs
Three government ministers resigning only 5 months out from an election is unprecedented in my experience. Their leaving at this point will be a heavy blow to the Morrison Liberal Government's chances of retaining power at the forthcoming election.
In my opinion, one of three scenarios is in play.
1.They know the election is lost & they are deserting the sinking ship - unlikely as they may still retain their individual seats & the pay/perks that come with that.
2.They have been pushed or are part of a plan to help the Labor Party over the line in the election - unlikely but possible (anything is possible in Aussie politics these days)
3.Australian politics is being cleaned out, similar to the US & they have been made an offer they can't refuse - possible.
Either way, the reality of a Shorten socialist Labor Government in Australia just ticked up by several points. Time will tell.

What role is Anna Wintour playing?
The Queen attends first ever fashion show with Wintour last February.
Wintour now on first trip to Australia and photographed with Julie Bishop (Australia's foreign affairs minister during 2016 USA election. Therefore implicated in FISA via 5 eyes) and Nicole Kidman (Fiona Barnett allegations).
Wintour in floral dress with Queen and Bishop/Kidman. Bishop and Kidman both in all white (surrender?).

Q Research General #5133: Patriots United Edition
The Australian secret intelligence service (ASIS) is the equivilent of the CIA in Australia, and is responsible for foreign intelligence. ASIS is directly accountable to the Minister for Foreign Affairs. Alexander Downer is the longest serving Foreign Affairs minister in Australian history, serving for nearly 12 years. Just before he finished up, in 2006 he set the Australian government to give the CF $25M and in 2007 he set up a deal with Rosatom to provide it with $1M AUD worth of Uranium (Sound familiar?).
Now fast forward to 2016 and he balls deep in Spygate and muh Russia. If Australia was using ASIS to spy on the Trump Campaign, Downer would have most likely convinced Julie Bishop, the then Minister of Foreign Affairs, to do so. Julie Bishop and Malcolm Turnbull both resigned a few months ago, and the Director-General of ASIS as this was all going on was Nick Warner, whom stopped being director in 2017 (cant find out if he resigned), but good timing none the less. Technically Turnbull resigned because of a leadership spill but if ASIS was being used to spy then we know why.
Interested to see if Downer was acting rogue. Highly doubt it considered the other resignations.

That might be Julia Gillard who had a turn at being a Prime Minister (after politically stabbing the prev one atm in the back)
She donated on behalf of Oz to CF and Soros GPE - she scored a job after politics for this
Julie Bishop was a foreign minister in the next govt (different party) and she too gave money to CF until Trump got elected. She still hard earned tax payer dollars to GPE when Rhianna asks for it. She stepped down when the new PM came into power - Scott Morrison

Oh ok, you are probably right i reckon. I found the article relating to ZTE phones being scrapped by dept defence.
Btw the minister of defence at the time was Marise Payne who is now Foreign minister, who took that position over from none other than Julie Bishop..both being at the core of Australias involvment in the Trump/Fvey fuckery at the time….talk about moving the pawns around hey?

For those not familiar with Western Australia - its been the epicentre of the mining boom there and hence the chinese influence has been present all along. Keep in mind, the minerals and metals being dug up get sent to china for production and then they send it back to us in the form of ready made goods.
Major fuckery by chinese state owned companies in regards to subverting the rule of law there and not giving a fuck.
Julie Bishop former foreign minister is from WA and she pretty much has run the show there in regards to the Liberal party at the state level and also has ties with major chinese players there, so keep that in mind too.

it's our system that is fucked up , why have a vote if you are just going to change the leader whenever they become 'unpopular'
as far as i'm concerned , we had one puppet replaced with another one (still better than Julie Bishop)
we've had 5 Prime Ministers in 5 years , let that sink in. how can the people expect anything to get done , when they don't even get the chance to do anything? except to campaign for their election , which hardly any of them (in recent history) get to. Promise , promise , promise , do fuckin' nothing. Cunts.
I can only hope that MEGA includes Australia becoming a Republic , we're fucked otherwise.

Q Research General #3979: Let the light shine in Edition
Australian politics 'the laughing stock of the world', says Julie Bishop
In her first major interview since the latest leadership spill, former deputy leader of the Liberal Party Julie Bishop is set to speak out on the bluster, bullying and allegations of sexism in Australian politics.
Speaking with the Nine Network's political editor Chris Uhlmann, Ms Bishop claims Australian politics has confounded the world, as the challenge and defeat of Malcolm Turnbull made headlines across the globe.
"I've had many calls from my counterpart foreign ministers who are very politely asking why I am no longer the foreign minister and what happened to the prime minister," Ms Bishop says in a preview for tonight's 60 Minutes report.
"There have been some rather unkind comments about Australia being the Italy of the South Pacific and the coup capital of the world."
Ms Bishop's interview comes as another woman this week deserted the Coalition and the nation was exposed to stories of male MPs bulling their female colleagues.
Many claim the latest leadership spill is a reflection of the wreckage they've been involved in for the last 10 years, with the focus on the bullying "theatre" of Question Time.
"It's no better than school children," Bishop says of the Question Time antics.
"In fact, not as well behaved as school children."
Uhlmann speaks to not only the former deputy leader, but the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Tony Smith, South Australian MP, Rebekah Sharkie, Labor's Anthony Albanese and Liberal Craig Laundry.
He poses to each - is Question Time a waste of time? And if so, what should we replace it with?

Sorry if this is old news, I only came across it recently. Former Australian foreign minister, Julie Bishop (at least 2nd generation swamp creature) come up with creative excuse to resign from her position AND wears red shoes to make a statement…

What is it with Australian foreign ministers, Alexander Downer, Bishop, who else?

Australian Foreign Minister Julie Bishop has resigned from the cabinet set up by new Prime Minister Scott Morrison. In a post on Twitter, the politician confirmed that she will remain "on the backbench as a strong voice for Western Australia." Bishop, who represents the Liberal Party, has led the foreign ministry since 2013. She has been replaced by former Defense Minister Marise Payne.

Q Research General #3436: We Are Enjoying The Show Edition
Aussie annon short and to point analysis of political fuckery in this lucky country
- Make no mistake, the liberal party is the labour party and because of that, the labour party is now free to advance well toward leftist radicalism much like the demoncrats in the US.
- Scott morrison is keeping the seat warm for Julie Bishop and I will the first to say this, I think they dont mind losing this election for that reason.
- because our first Cunt PM aka julia gillard was such a drop kick, it did set the leftist agenda back a little bit. Julie Bishop is a more aggressive woman and she will pick up the batton again, and she is a favourite amongst the msm so watch this space
- the agenda to overhaul the tax system will most probably be compromised as it is being drummed into the great unwashed minds that the "most progressive tax system" must be kept and at best just slight mods to it should be the order of the day according to MSM.
- if morrison wins the upcoming election, expect him to be undermined all the way. As stated above, i think that old hag Julie will also do her part to undermine him amd make a challenge for leadership and she will have the backing of the msm and the approval of all these wonderful progressive female vote in thus country.
- the labour party could not be in a better position. I expect them to try and keep the attention on this libparty implosion while they have time to mount a strategy to come back in massive way with an even more announce agenda.
- if any aussie anons under 35 are reading this, just work hard and save your pennies and be prepared to look outside of this country to build your own business or to free yourself from the political carnage and contempt these fucking politicians have for your vote and tax dollars that has been going on since 2007. Am i saying give up? Nope. Im saying if you got your head on straight then looking after yourself is priority no. 1. Live to fight another day. Thats all im saying.
- the Globalist agenda is going to be rolled out by the States and not so much at the Federal level. Look at Melbourne and Sydney if you think otherwise. Look at the plans in place and the works going on in those two cities in particular eg infrastructure the main CBD slowly becoming car free and big reliance on public transport etc. The Rockerfella foundation is the main driver of such policies being adopted by the state gov of both NSW and VIC.
-watch the water……anyone from NSW?? Notice the droughts going on there?? There will be alot of shitfighting going on between Federal and State govs regarding farmers and water distrubution in country areas.

We shouldn't discount Julie Bishop: Won't be 'another man's deputy'
Julie Bishop is a tough cookie.
But is she tough enough to emerge from the Liberal Party all in brawl as the conservatives' first female Prime Minister?
The answer is "yes" according to the Adelaide born political veteran and WA MP, who confirmed today to colleagues that she is prepared to put her hat in the ring.
That could trigger a three way contest between Peter Dutton, Scott Morrison and Ms Bishop.
But Ms Bishop has told her colleagues that she won't be "another man's deputy", reports The Australian.

Q Research General #2295: Which Paki Round 2 Edition
Australia staying put on UN Rights Council
Foreign Minister Julie Bishop says Australia shares many concerns held by the United States about the UN Human Rights Council, but will not be pulling out.
The US ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley described the council as a "cesspool of political bias" which ignores the atrocities of its members.
Ms Bishop is disappointed by America's decision to withdraw, but shares its concerns about areas of contention, including the council's "anti-Israel bias".
"We are committed to progress effective and meaningful reform to enable the council to more effectively carry out its role," the minister said in a statement on Wednesday.
"It was our strong preference for the US to remain a member of the UNHRC and I had made this known to senior members of the Trump administration."
Ms Bishop said it was in Australia's national interest to shape the work of the council and uphold the international rules-based order.
"Australia has pledged to be a principled, pragmatic and consultative member, bringing a unique Indo-Pacific perspective to our term and amplify the voices of our Pacific neighbours," she said.
Australia's second session as a member of the UNHRC began in Geneva this week.
Labor foreign affairs spokeswoman Penny Wong is concerned the US withdrawing from the council risks emboldening those who do not share Australia's support for democracy and human rights.
"It's entirely a matter for the US which international bodies it chooses to be a member of," Senator Wong said.
"But Labor believes it is better to remain engaged in international organisations like the UNHRC in order to promote our values and protect our national interests."
Amnesty International said Australia's role on the council is now more important than ever.
"We should work towards having the US rejoin the Human Rights Council, but Australia also must now step up and fill the leadership gap, especially on human rights abuses in our region," advocacy manager Emma Bull said.
"Protecting universal freedoms and fairness is vital in this global climate, and Australia must use its council seat to champion rights in our region and around the world."

Now interestingly Julia was preceded by the biggest douche bag in existence, his excellency (he wishes):
'''Kevin Rudd. - 21 September 1957 (age 60) Nambour, Queensland, Australia. 26th Prime Minister of Aus, Dec 3rd 2007 - 24 June 2010.'''
Now this wanker has his tounge so far up China's ass he can probably taste some dumplings. Even recently he is picking china over his birth country.
https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2018/feb/12/kevin-rudd-accuses-turnbull-government-of-anti-chinese-jihad
He even did a lecture at one of Melbourne's universities with a straight up cabal title:
https://www.latrobe.edu.au/events/all/kevin-rudd-on-chinas-rise-and-a-new-world-order
Now, before Kevin Rudd came to office, Australia was actually in a surplus and manufacturing was somewhat chaotically stable but this faggot fucked it all up, and don't blame it on the 2008 recession, Australia still had positive economic growth during the global crisis and the downward trend in manufacturing jobs started before the crisis. Can you have a guess where all the jobs went? And now Australia has 0 car manufacturing. View the graph in this article.
https://blog.aigroup.com.au/what-is-happening-to-employment-in-australian-manufacturing/
So now, the only way for Australia to keep the economy in a positive trend (because we hardly manufacture or produce anything besides agriculture and mining) is to import rich people to buy houses and then get the taxes from the house sales. When interest rates go up, Australia economy will be fucked.

>The CF recipient entity was the Clinton Foundation HIV/Aids Initiative Inc (CHAI). Australian due diligence failed to detect that the entity did not hold the necessary US authority to operate in the treatment of HIV/Aids, further that the entity was wound up by the Massachusetts corporate regulator effective 31 December 2007.
>By December 2008 the Clinton Foundation reported that Australia was its largest Western Government donor.

Yes that's right, Alexander Downer kicked off the Clinton foundation donations. The same fuckhead that is connected to spygate connections to the UK. And it all started was Kevin Rudd and continued under Gillard.
So as Q has said, US up for sale to the highest bidder. Well Australia's already been sold out. I hope Gillard and Rudd have done something criminal enough that warrants arrests because I will never forgive them, they were the beginning of the end. However, im happy to be here and see the rerise of western civilization.

The Clintons and Their Corruptocrats
In Hillary's term at State, wealthy crooks, influence-seekers and tyrannical governments rushed to donate millions to the Clinton Foundation, its spin-offs, Bill Clinton personally or vague combinations of all/any of them. Figuring large on the donor list, Australia's taxpayers
Australian governments' $85 million aid to the Clinton Foundation is a bit surprising, given that ex-President Bill and presidential candidate Hillary are synonyms for financial and personal sleaze. That total sum was paid by both Coalition and Labor governments over the past decade. Coalition and Labor have also despatched and committed $460m to the Clinton-affiliated Global Partnership for Education, chaired by our ex-PM Julia Gillard. Abbott's Foreign Minister Julie Bishop threw Gillard's show a lazy $140 million of taxpayer money in 2014, no questions asked. That aid was in the teeth of Gillard's lusty presidential campaigning for Hillary against Trump.

Q Research General #786: Chuck Todd is a Sleepy Son of a Bitch Edition
Recent Australian Government data - direct Clinton Foundation taxpayer donations total $130M
In 2010 Clinton incorporated a new CHAI entity, the Clinton Health Access Initiative. The Australian government on its websites and in reports retrospectively changed the name of the entity it was contracting with from the deregistered HIV/Aids Initiative Inc to the new CHAI Inc.
On 22 September 2014 in New York, FM Julie Bishop and Bill Clinton witnessed the signing of a new MoU with the Clinton Health Access Initiative (CHAI) "committing Australia and the Clinton Health Access Initiative (CHAI) to work together to transform access to health in developing countries over the next five years".
The MOU "superseded" the 2006 MOU with Clinton HIV/Aids Initiative. Bishop's media release included two financial metrics - she said the new CHAI MoU
"will support Australia's $5 billion aid program"; and,
"Since 2006, Australia has contributed $88 million to CHAI and its sister organisation, the Clinton Foundation".
As at June 2015, Bishop's department (DFAT) was funding the following CHAI programs
Vietnam ($4.65 million from 2012- 2015)
PNG ($27 million from 2011-15)
Indonesia, ($33.95 million from 2007- 2016)
By mid 2016 Australian donations to the Clinton Foundation (and related entities) from DFAT alone had topped $100M AUD. A further $24M was donated ostensibly for climate change related CF programs - $10M directly by Kevin Rudd and about $14M by GILLARD. And new donations were still being arranged.
On 20 October 2016 the Australian Senate's foreign affairs committee heard evidence from Mr Blair Exell, First Assistant Secretary, Development Policy Division in Bishop's DFAT.
………..from the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, since 2006 the total (donation) figure is $103,392,042 to the Clinton Foundation and subsequently to an affiliate organisation called the Clinton Health Access Initiative, CHAI.

This is a very big issue for us, particularly domestically, and I do understand you are inclined to a different point of view than the vice president.
Trump: Well, actually I just called for a total ban on Syria and from many different countries from where there is terror, and extreme vetting for everyone else - and somebody told me yesterday that close to 2,000 people are coming who are really probably troublesome. And I am saying, boy that will make us look awfully bad. Here I am calling for a ban where I am not letting anybody in and we take 2,000 people. Really it looks like 2,000 people that Australia does not want and I do not blame you by the way, but the United States has become like a dumping ground. You know Malcom [sic], anybody that has a problem - you remember the Mariel boat lift, where Castro let everyone out of prison and Jimmy Carter accepted them with open arms. These were brutal people. Nobody said Castro was stupid, but now what are we talking about is 2,000 people that are actually imprisoned and that would actually come into the United States. I heard about this - I have to say I love Australia; I love the people of Australia. I have so many friends from Australia, but I said - geez that is a big ask, especially in light of the fact that we are so heavily in favor, not in favor, but we have no choice but to stop things. We have to stop. We have allowed so many people into our country that should not be here. We have our San Bernardino's, we have had the World Trade Center come down because of people that should not have been in our country, and now we are supposed to take 2,000. It sends such a bad signal. You have no idea. It is such a bad thing.
Turnbull: Can you hear me out Mr President?
Trump: Yeah, go ahead.

Clinton Foundation And Australian Government Money Laundering Scandal..
https:// steemit.com/news/@wakeupworldnews/clinton-foundation-and-australian-government-money-laundering-scandal-de0a1277bdc96
Something we probably won't see on Sunrise or The Today Show here in Aus…
Retired Aussie Detective Michael Smith has been asked by the FBI to provide evidence he has regarding dodgy donations to the Clinton Foundation from Aussie tax payer dollars.
As the Case into fraudulent activity within the Clinton Foundation is reopened
Smith says he is preparing an official document of evidence for the FBI now, which include multiple offences involving both Bill and Hillary and multiple Australian government officials..
FIRST OFFENCE
A $25M financial advantage dishonestly obtained by deception in the 22 February 2006 MOU between
the Australian Government and
the Clinton Presidential Library and
the Clinton HIV/Aids Initiative Inc (CHAI) -
Offenders Bill CLINTON and Alexander DOWNER.
SECOND OFFENCE
The corrupt October 2006 backdating of false tender advertisements purporting to advertise the availability of
a $15M contract to provide HIV/Aids services in PNG
on behalf of the Australian Government,
after an agreement was already in place to pay the Clinton Foundation and/or associates.
Offenders Bill CLINTON and Alexander DOWNER
THIRD OFFENCE
The unlawful and corrupt incorporation of an incorporated association known as
the "William J. Clinton Foundation HIV/Aids Initiative - PNG" - which took place
between 21 August 2006 and 10:03AM on 24 August 2006 - at
Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea
Offenders Ruby SHANG and Bill CLINTON and certain PNG officials
FOURTH OFFENCE
The $10M financial advantage dishonestly obtained by deception
between 1 April 2008 and 25 September 2008, at
Washington DC, New York NY and Canberra Australia, involving an MOU between
the Australian Government,
the "Clinton Climate Initiative" and
the purported "Global Carbon Capture and Storage Institute Inc"
Offenders Kevin Michael RUDD, Bill CLINTON, Hillary CLINTON
FIFTH OFFENCE
The $14M financial advantage dishonestly obtained by deception
during September 2012 at
Canberra Australia and New York NY, involving the award of
a contract to the Clinton Foundation to design and build a carbon accounting scheme in Kenya
on behalf of The Australian Government; and
certain financial advantages obtained by Julia GILLARD as a result of the corrupt payments made under the purported contract, commonly known as the Clinton Foundation "Pay to Play" scheme
Offenders Julie Eileen GILLARD, then US Secretary of State Hillary Rodham CLINTON and Greg COMBET
SIXTH OFFENCE
The $88M financial advantage dishonestly obtained by deception
on 22 September 2014 at
New York NY, involving
a MOU between the Australian Government and certain Clinton Foundation entities
which purported to retrospectively erase the "Clinton HIV/Aids Initiative Inc" (CHAI) as a contracting party with the Australian Government, and replace it with
the "Clinton Health Access Initiative Inc" (CHAI)
Offenders - Julie Bishop and Bill CLINTON
Smith claims he is also preparing to file a private criminal prosecution of GILLARD in an Australian court along with formal advice to the Commonwealth Director of Public Prosecutions regarding the charges GILLARD will face.
Huge news, If what this former detective has is true, we could see some major governemnt crooks fall, they probably thought Hillary was a sure thing for President and none of their dirty laundry would ever see day light..
Let's just hope Smith does not have a fall in the shower or drop a bar bell on his neck while doing weights!

This idea is a little out there. Could the Clinton's link to Aus be something to do with the Aboriginals? Similar to their 'taste' for Haitians maybe.. Q also mentions "Blood."
Australian Aboriginals are one of the oldest cultures on Earth. Most of their communities right now seem to be terrible, degenerate places because of things like rampant child sexual abuse and alcoholism. It's a national tragedy. Probably makes them 'easier' to kidnap and traffick though.
There's also this:

Rihanna tweeted and Julie Bishop responded with a lazy $90M Aus taxpayer donation to GPE (not CF but is C-related) less than four weeks after Q posted "Coincidence all donations to the CF terminated post defeat?"
Were they looking to cover their asses? E.g. if Aus still donates to Clinton-related foundations, how can it be Pay2Play?
Or Australia was still being forced to donate and I'm way off the mark.
Were they previously forced to donate because of compromising information on top Australian politicians? Globalist macroeconomic power-plays/threats? Maybe both?

"Why have we donated to Clinton's Foundation?"
Why have Australian governments tipped money into Hillary Clinton's Clinton Foundation? That it gave Julia Gillard a job and effectively a platform to now spruik Hillary Clinton for president shows just how this very dodgy Foundation works.
Miranda Devine:
The Australian taxpayer shovelled at least $88 million into the Clinton Foundation and associated entities from 2006 to 2014, reaching a peak of $10.3 million in 2012-13, Gillard's last year in office.
On the Clinton Foundation website, AusAID and the Commonwealth of Australia score separate entries in the $10 million-plus group of donors, one rung up from American teacher unions.
In 2009-10 Kevin Rudd handed over another $10 million to the foundation for climate research, part of $300 million he squandered on a Global Carbon Capture and Storage Institute.
Gillard also donated $300 million of our money to the Clinton-affiliated Global Partnership for Education.
Lo and behold, she became chairman in 2014 and has been actively promoting Clinton as president ever since - in a campaign video last December slamming Trump, in opeds trumpeting the next woman president and in appearances with Clinton spruiking girls' education.
The Abbott government topped up the left-wing organisation's coffers with another $140 million in 2014, bringing total Australian largesse to $460 million, according to a press release from Foreign Minister Julie Bishop.

Malcolm Turnbull: Good evening.
Donald Trump: Mr Prime Minister, how are you?
Turnbull: I am doing very well.
Trump: And I guess our friend Greg Norman, he is doing very well?
Turnbull: He is a great mutual friend yes.
Trump: Well you say hello to him. He is a very good friend. By the way thank you very much for taking the call. I really appreciate it. It is really nice.
Turnbull: Thank you very much. Everything is going very well. I want to congratulate you and Mike Pence on being sworn in now. I have spoken to you both now as you know. I know we are both looking to make our relationship which is very strong and intimate, stronger than ever - which I believe we can do.
Trump: Good.
Turnbull: I believe you and I have similar backgrounds, unusual for politicians, more businessman but I look forward to working together.
Trump: That is exactly right. We do have similar backgrounds and it seems to be working in this climate - it is a crazy climate. Let me tell you this, it is an evil time but it is a complex time because we do not have uniforms standing in front of us. Instead, we have people in disguise. It is brutal. This Isis thing - it is something we are going to devote a lot of energy to it. I think we are going to be very successful.
Turnbull: Absolutely. We have, as you know, taken a very strong line on national security and border protection here and when I was speaking with Jared Kushner just the other day and one of your immigration advisors in the White House we reflected on how our policies have helped to inform your approach. We are very much of the same mind. It is very interesting to know how you prioritize the minorities in your executive order. This is exactly what we have done with the program to bring in 12,000 Syrian refugees, 90% of which will be Christians. It will be quite deliberate and the position I have taken - I have been very open about it - is that it is a tragic fact of life that when the situation in the Middle East settles down - the people that are going to be most unlikely to have a continuing home are those Christian minorities. We have seen that in Iraq and so from our point of view, as a final destination for refugees, that is why we prioritize. It is not a sectarian thing. It is recognition of the practical political realities. We have a similar perspective in that respect.
Trump: Do you know four years ago Malcom [sic], I was with a man who does this for a living. He was telling me, before the migration, that if you were a Christian from Syria, you had no chance of coming to the United States. Zero. They were the ones being persecuted. When I say persecuted, I mean their heads were being chopped off. If you were a Muslim we have nothing against Muslims, but if you were a Muslim you were not persecuted at least to the extent - but if you were a Muslim from Syria that was the number one place to get into the United States from. That was the easiest thing. But if you were a Christian from Syria you have no chance of getting into the United States. I just thought it was an incredible statistic. Totally true - and you have seen the same thing. It is incredible.
Turnbull: Well, yes. Mr President, can I return to the issue of the resettlement agreement that we had with the Obama administration with respect to some people on Nauru and Manus Island. I have written to you about this and Mike Pence and General Flynn spoke with Julie Bishop and my national security adviser yesterday. This is a very big issue for us, particularly domestically, and I do understand you are inclined to a different point of view than the vice president.

Australia and Iran have agreed to share intelligence about Australians fighting with militant groups in Iraq.
Foreign Minister Julie Bishop has said the deal will help both countries in their efforts to tackle Islamic State (IS).
She added that Australia would have access to information gathered by Iranian operatives in Iraq.
Ms Bishop spoke after her meeting with President Hassan Rouhani, during her first visit to Iran.
About 100 Australians are believed to have travelled to Iraq and Syria to fight with IS, with authorities warning they present a serious threat to domestic security.
There are also concerns about supporters of IS and other radical groups within Australia.
At the weekend, five teenagers were arrested over an alleged plot to carry out an attack at a World War One centenary event.

Ms. Bishop met with Mr. Assange's lawyers in London on Thursday, before the report was made public. "I have now read the report and I am seeking legal advice on its implications for Mr. Assange, as an Australian citizen," she said in a brief statement issued from London. Ms. Bishop said Australia had offered Mr. Assange consular assistance, should he need it.

Albanese government has failed strategic test in northern Australia
PETER JENNINGS - OCTOBER 23, 2023
1/2
Yet another review has defended the absurd 2015 Northern Territory decision to lease the Port of Darwin to a Chinese company for 99 years. The lease continues to dog successive federal governments and is undermining defence planning.
Just weeks into replacing Tony Abbott as prime minister, Malcolm Turnbull had to deal with the port lease announcement at precisely the same time defence minister Marise Payne and foreign minister Julie Bishop met their US counterparts in Boston for the 2015 AUSMIN talks. The ministers announced they had "decided to pursue enhanced naval co-operation across all domains".
With spectacularly bad timing the Darwin port lease was made public just as the US secretaries of state and defence returned to Washington DC.
No one had raised this at AUSMIN. A senior American official told me that news went off around the Pentagon like an atomic bomb.
Barack Obama ticked off Turnbull, saying the US would have liked to have been told. Turnbull said Obama should have been reading the NT News. Imagine the US treating our strategic concerns with such indifference.
In fact, Turnbull and then treasurer Scott Morrison knew they had a problem. A loophole in the foreign investment rules excluded state- and territory-owned assets from federal oversight on national security or any other grounds.
Morrison closed the loophole, but was too late to prevent the Port of Darwin lease. Even before that, Defence had decided nothing needed to be done. A 2015 Defence note, released under Freedom of Information, records an official saying of Chinese company Landbridge: "This is a private company, Australian managed, and operated with a significant degree of autonomy, by Australian-based people." This was a spectacularly naive misunderstanding about how companies operate under Chinese communism.
Subsequently, Defence, the Prime Minister's department, ASIO and others have all found ways, over several reviews, to say that leasing Australia's only significant northern port to a Chinese company for a century presents no strategic concerns.
Defence's initial "defence" of its non-decision was that the Port of Darwin was separate to the navy's tiny patrol boat base. The department didn't make a broader judgment about national security.
The review released by the Department of Prime Minister and Cabinet last Friday points to a "robust regulatory system in place to manage risks to critical infrastructure". Such is the alertness of our national security guardians that "Australians can have confidence that their safety will not be compromised". The statement acknowledges "the importance of the Port of Darwin as a key piece of critical infrastructure" but the focus on risks to the "safety" of Australians moves the attention away from national security.
The bigger picture is clear: China is becoming militarily aggressive in our region. Since the lease of the Port of Darwin, Beijing illegally took over disputed territory in the South China Sea, building new military air bases and sea ports. Chinese military power projects much further south to the Indonesian archipelago. Routine Chinese air and naval patrols and intelligence-gathering ships now operate in Australian waters.
These developments make northern Australia much more strategically important. This is why the US Marine Corps and US Air Force presence in the north is growing, and why they are building up fuel and other stores. It is also why US Virginia -class submarines will operate out of our western navy base from 2027. And it is why Australia is developing plans for nuclear-powered submarines.
The Albanese government should have overturned the lease because we, and our key ally, the US, need that facility to expand and secure a larger military presence in the north. The recently released Defence Strategic Review says "there is a clear need to have the correct infrastructure and logistics support in the right locations to project and sustain power".
The report's focus on northern Australia makes it obvious the Port of Darwin issue will have to be addressed soon, even if the government's immediate priority is to smooth political waters with China before Albanese visits Beijing.

Voice referendum: Double trouble for the Yes camp
SARAH ELKS - OCTOBER 13, 2023
Yes campaigners in Queensland and Western Australia are ?bracing for a bruising defeat at Saturday's referendum, despite a flurry of volunteer-driven last-minute action in the outlying states.
In published polling on support for the voice referendum, the two jurisdictions - which make up about 30 per cent of the national voting population - have consistently remained at the bottom of the national tally.
The Yes campaign has mobilised about 70,000 volunteers ?nationwide - eclipsing the 25,000 estimated by the No side - and Yes23 director and Quandamooka man from Queensland's Minjerribah Dean Parkin issued a final plea to voters to back the proposal.
"A very simple act by all Queenslanders and West Australians in voting Yes can lead to a practical change for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples across the country," he said.
A Labor volunteer working on the Yes campaign told The Weekend Australian the result would "go down the gurgler" in those two states, a prediction backed by No campaign insiders.
"If we get 40 per cent in Queensland it would be a good result … and in WA, the cultural heritage laws really stuffed us over there," the volunteer said.
Another senior campaigner said while "Queensland and WA were always going to be the toughest to get over the line", WA had the benefit of high-?profile Liberals backing the Yes vote, including former foreign minister Julie Bishop.
In Queensland, all state and federal LNP MPs appear to be publicly backing a No vote, apart from the state LNP MP for Bonney on the Gold Coast, Sam O'Connor.
The Yes campaigner said: "As soon as (Opposition Leader) Peter Dutton came out so negatively against the voice, with such a strong message from Dutton as a Queensland leader, we were in trouble."
On Friday, Mr Dutton said he supported "the recognition of Indigenous Australians because of their 65,000-year connection to our country" and claimed a referendum on that would have achieved "90 per cent support".
"Instead, the Prime Minister has gone down the path of the voice," he said.
Pollster Kos Samaras, director of RedBridge Group Australia and former campaign strategist for Victorian and federal Labor, said the two states would be crucial.
"If the support for the voice in Queensland and WA is in the 30s, support for the voice in the other four states needs to exceed 56 per cent," he said on Twitter.
"This will meet the first threshold (four states) but it will be just enough to meet the second threshold, the national ?majority."
Queensland-based demographic pollsters DemosAU's latest survey of 2251 voters nationwide between October 1 and 9 revealed a Yes vote of 30 per cent in Queensland, 57 per cent for No, and 12 per cent undecided.
In WA, the results were similar: 30 per cent Yes, 57 per cent No, and 13 per cent undecided.
DemosAU director and head of research George Hasanakos said Queensland and WA were traditionally difficult to convince to vote for constitutional reform in referendums.
"They're a bit more sceptical of initiatives which come out of Canberra," he said.

South Australia's Indigenous voice to parliament Yes numbers 'not adding up'
DAVID PENBERTHY - SEPTEMBER 15, 2023
1/2
The No campaign is increasingly convinced that South Australians will reject the voice to parliament despite Yes campaigners hailing the state as a must-win at the ?October 14 referendum.
With the national Yes campaign officially launched by ?Anthony Albanese in Adelaide's northern suburbs on August 30 framed around an appeal to the state's progressive political traditions, there has been little sign since of the public groundswell needed to deliver a Yes win in SA.
Opposition Leader David Speirs told The Weekend Australian that he believed the state's Yes vote was "in freefall" and that he would almost bet his house on a No victory.
The Yes camp disagrees and believes SA is still there to be won and that its trailblazing history backing land rights legislation, decriminalising homosexuality and giving women the right to vote makes the Voice a natural progression for the state.
Polls by Newspoll and the Australia Institute had the Yes vote marginally ahead in SA last month at 52-48, but a Guardian poll this week had the No vote in front, reflecting the views of No vote campaign tacticians that ?opposition to the referendum is hardening and that undecided voters are switching to No.
No campaigners believe the Yes camp has misread SA and placed far too much store on its inner-city, arts-loving, left-wing voters, ignoring the fact that the state has a large blue-collar and welfare-reliant population, and a higher-than-national-average share of older and Anglo-Saxon residents who are more hostile to the Voice.
In a tactical sense, most of the public activities aimed at bolstering the Yes vote so far have involved unions and church groups already in support anyway.
Conversely, attempts to popularise the Voice through a citywide campaign of Yes posters appear to be rubbing some voters up the wrong way.
The football-mad state's two biggest community organisations, the Port Adelaide and ?Adelaide footy clubs, have both formally ?advocated a Yes vote. But they did so mutedly via brief social media statements several months ago and have done no campaigning on the issue since, despite some individual players such as Port legend Gavin Wanganeen playing an influential Yes role.
The two most prominent political advocates of the Yes vote are the popular and conservative Labor Premier Peter Malinauskas and Attorney-General Kyam Maher who successfully steered Australia's first legally-enshrined voice through parliament earlier this year.
While Mr Malinauskas is missing a full week of campaign opportunities as he leads a trade delegation to China to restore SA's wine, grain and education sectors, Mr Maher said he ?remained "cautiously optimistic" of victory, saying the Yes campaign had not yet hit full speed.
"A lot of voters aren't engaged with the question yet and I ?remain hopeful that they will see the arguments for change and that they have nothing to fear," he said.
In a party-political sense, SA has been notable in that the Liberal side of politics is providing zero support for the Yes vote, unlike in Western Australia where former foreign minister Julie Bishop has campaigned for Yes and in NSW where former premier Barry O'Farrell and former prime minister Malcolm Turnbull are doing the same.
SA is the only state where the parliamentary Liberal Party is campaigning in its entirety against the Voice, despite having long been a stronghold for the moderate faction of the party.
Notable senior moderates - most tellingly former trade minister senator Simon Birmingham - have effectively sat out the Voice debate by refusing to say how they are going to vote.
This has spared the federal ?opposition the awkwardness of another frontbench departure, seen with the resignation as shadow attorney-general of Yes backer Julian Leeser in April after Opposition Leader Peter Dutton formally embraced the No vote.
Mr Speirs, who assumed the Opposition Leader's role last year when Steven Marshall resigned upon the defeat of his one-term government, said he believed the Yes camp had misread the South Australian electorate.
Mr Speirs is one of the few ?remaining suburban Liberals after last year's election whitewash and his southern seat of Bright is home to a large number of young mortgagees, tradies and pensioners, all of whom are being crunched by the cost-of-living crisis.
"I would almost bet my house on it losing in SA," Mr Speirs said.

Anthony Albanese 'not sorry' after parking voice campaign for world stage
BEN PACKHAM - SEPTEMBER 10, 2023
Anthony Albanese has defended his decision to be out of the country for an entire week of the voice referendum campaign, which he has described as "a once-in-a-generation chance to bring our country together".
The Prime Minister, who attended the ASEAN, East Asia and G20 summits and squeezed in a side trip to the Philippines, refused to take questions during the trip on the foreign affairs implications of an Indigenous voice to parliament.
Mr Albanese, who was due to arrive back in Canberra on Monday morning, said it was vital that Australia was represented at such international forums.
"The G20 is such an important body. It represents 85 per cent of global GDP. And that's why what happened here matters," he said at the summit in New Delhi.
"One in four Australian jobs is dependent on trade. I make no apologies for being engaged because it's important that Australia has a seat at the table; because it impacts on the living standards of Australians."
Mr Albanese will fly in from India for what is likely to be another horror week of parliament for the government over its failure to fully explain its decision to reject more Qatar Airways flights to Australia in a boon for Qantas.
He has previously declared the result of the Voice referendum would "affect international perceptions of Australia".
"It's ... about how Australians see ourselves, but also how the world sees Australia," Mr Albanese said in April.
But striding the world stage at the ASEAN summit in Indonesia last week, he refused to say whether a Yes vote would strengthen Australia's relationship with the region or whether a No vote would undermine it.
The trip's clash with last week's parliamentary sitting in which the government was trounced by the opposition could have been avoided as the summit dates were known when the sitting calendar was decided.
With support for the voice in free fall according to the latest polling, Mr Albanese is facing grumbling from the "Yes" camp over his referendum sales pitch which is falling flat with voters.
A RedBridge poll, taken in the first week of September after Anthony Albanese announced October 14 as the referendum date, found only 39 per cent of people said they planned to vote Yes for the constitutional amendment, while 61 per cent planned to vote No.
A September 3 Newspoll conducted for The Australian, which did not force undecided voters to choose like the RedBridge poll, showed ?support for an Indigenous Voice to Parliament and executive government falling to 38 per cent, with 53 per cent intending to vote No.
Mr Albanese did not mention the Voice referendum once during his trip to Jakarta, Manila and New Delhi, despite arguing at the campaign's August 30 launch that there would be no second chance to have a say on the constitutional reform for many Australians.
"Referendums come around much less often than elections - this will be the first one this century - and they are very different," he said at the time.
Labor has vowed to deliver a First Nations foreign policy "that weaves the voices and practices of the world's oldest continuing culture into the way we talk to the world".
Former foreign minister Julie Bishop has said a "no" vote would send a negative message to the rest of the word about Australia.
But, amid Labor fears of alienating "soft" yes or no voters, Foreign Minister Penny Wong recently refused to endorse her predecessor's comments.
"I think the more important thing for us to do is to speak with Australians about why this is a change that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders have sought and asked us to support," she told ABC radio.
"And ultimately, it's about recognition, it's about listening and it's about getting better results."

China moves to repair damage it caused to relations with Canberra
CAMERON STEWART - SEPTEMBER 8, 2023
Anthony Albanese's meeting with Chinese Premier Li Qiang on the sidelines of the East Asia Summit is another breakthrough moment in the slow restoration of the China-Australia relationship.
Beijing is now primarily driving this rebalance through conciliatory words and actions that stand in stark contrast to its wolf warrior, wrecking ball behaviour of recent years, which led the relationship to crumble.
Mr Li, in his meeting with the Prime Minister, spoke of a renewed relationship that "has continued to show a positive momentum of movement" and of his hopes "to work with you to further improve and grow the bilateral relationship".
He reiterated the invitation for Mr Albanese to meet with Chinese President Xi Jinping in Beijing later this year, an invitation that the Prime Minister has accepted.
An editorial this week in the state-run Global Times offered a further insight into China's new tone in its dealings with Australia. It described the visit of a large Australian delegation to China, including former Labor minister Craig Emerson and former Liberal foreign minister Julie Bishop, as "a momentous event between China and Australia", and "a reflection of the East-West relationship as a whole".
The Global Times went on: "After the (Albanese) government came to power and began adjusting its policy towards China, China-Australia relations rebounded."
This last statement is a complete distortion of the truth but a necessary falsehood that China must state publicly to allow it to repair its relationship with Australia without losing face.
The truth is it is China, rather than Australia, which has adjusted its policy to help repair the relationship. It did so after realising its "wolf warrior" behaviour when Beijing sought to punish Australia over its foreign interference laws, the banning of Chinese telco Huawei from the 5G rollout and Canberra's call for an inquiry into the origins of the coronavirus, were ultimately futile.
Beijing saw that slapping trade sanctions on Australia, worth $20bn, and the trumped-up arrests of Australian citizens in China were ineffectual in changing Australian policy, under either the Coalition or Labor governments.
The Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Penny Wong have deftly handled this slow reparation by avoiding some of the more hostile rhetoric directed towards China by the former Coalition government while not taking a backward step on actual policy.
Restoration of the relationship is a work in progress and will continue to be a slow-burn on both sides. The process began with the meeting between Mr Albanese and Mr Xi on the sidelines of the G20 summit in Bali last November and has progressed with bilateral meetings of senior ministers this year.
Although China has repealed some of its trade bans, including recently the massive tariff on Australian barley, there are still bans worth at least $2.5bn including on wine, lobster and some red meats. Diplomatically, the relationship continues to be undermined by China's ongoing and unjustified detention of Australians Cheng Lei and Yang Hengjun.
The government has been wise not to make removal of the remaining trade bans or release of the two Australians a firm condition of Mr Albanese's upcoming visit to Beijing but China knows these two actions are ultimately necessary if it wants to restore the relationship to something approaching normality.
However, the change in China's mood is palpable. The Global Times this week stated that "the restart of this high-level dialogue is seen as a sign of further warming of China-Australia relations".
This was the same newspaper that declared in early 2020: "Australia is always there, making trouble. It is a bit like chewing gum stuck on the sole of China's shoes. Sometimes you have to find a stone to rub it off."
It seems Australia is no longer chewing gum.

The meeting came amid heightened tensions over China's new "standard map" released just over a week ago that reasserts Beijing's disputed claims in the South China Sea, and declares parts of India as its own territory.
The map has been vehemently rejected by India, Malaysia, The Philippines, Indonesia, Vietnam and Taiwan.
Mr Albanese said his talks with Premier Li were heavily focused on de-escalating such tensions.
"We took the whole context of the discussion was about how we all have an interest in a peaceful, secure and prosperous region. That's something that is our starting point," he said.
The meeting was Mr Albanese's first with Premier Li, and restored what had been an established routine of Australian prime ministers meeting Chinese premiers at ASEAN summits.
It came as former Labor trade minister Craig Emerson led a delegation to Beijing with former foreign minister Julie Bishop and Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade secretary Jan Adams, for the first high-level Australia-China Dialogue since bilateral relations faltered.
The Global Times said in an editorial that the dialogue was "a momentous event between China and Australia", and "a reflection of the East-West relationship as a whole".
It attributed the thaw to a "pragmatic adjustment" by Labor since it returned to power in May last year.
"After the (Albanese) government came to power and began adjusting its policy toward China, China-Australia relations rebounded," the paper said.
"The restart of this high-level dialogue is seen as a sign of further warming of China-Australia relations."
It said if Australia and China could manage their differences, then China could do the same with other Western countries.
"From this vantage point, China-Australia ties have far-reaching ramifications beyond bilateral relations," the state-run paper said.
The Prime Minister had hoped to meet Xi Jinping at the G20 summit in India later this week but the Chinese president skipped that conference in a snub to host Narendra Modi.
Chinese presidents have not traditionally attended ASEAN but Mr Xi's decision to skip the G20 Leaders' Summit is unusual. Analysts said the move was aimed at undermining strategic rival India.
The meeting came amid heightened tensions in the region over China's renewed territorial claims in its new "standard map" released just over a week ago.
The map reasserts Beijing's disputed claims in the South China Sea, and declares parts of India as its own territory.
The map has been vehemently rejected by India, Malaysia, The Philippines, Indonesia, Vietnam and Taiwan.
Mr Albanese will also have a bilateral meeting with Indonesian President Joko Widodo on Thursday and participate in the East Asia Summit and the ASEAN-Australia summit, before flying out for Manila for a bilateral meeting with Philippines' President Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos.
The Filipino leader has taken an increasingly strident stance against Chinese claims to disputed South China Sea features which the Philippines consider to be its own territory.
The leaders are likely to discuss joint naval patrols in the heavily contested waterway, as well as bilateral trade issues.

The criticisms were echoed by Human Rights Watch, which queried what message Australia was sending by not joining other comparable countries in taking action.

Albanese had hoped to use what would be his second meeting with Xi to further thaw relations with China and lay the groundwork for a visit to Beijing by the end of the year.

>>19476767 Video: Sydney councillors filmed with escorts 'for blackmail', says corruption watchdog - The NSW anti-corruption watchdog has found a Sydney property developer secretly filmed two councillors with sex workers on a "boys' weekend" trip to China so he could blackmail them into voting for his projects. The Independent Commission Against Corruption found that the two men who were filmed, Vince Bada?lati and Philip Sansom, and councillor Constantine Hindi accepted perks from developers in exchange for favourable treatment on property developments. ICAC found Mr Badalati and Mr Hindi accepted $170,000 each from developer Ching Wah (Philip) Uy as a reward for having used their positions to help him and the proponents of two proposed developments in Hurstville. The commission found Mr Bada?lati and Mr Hindi engaged in serious corrupt conduct by travelling to China in April 2016 when they knew their positions with the then Hurstville City Council (later Georges River Council) would be misused to endorse and promote the property developments.

Xi Jinping set to skip G20 summit, dashing Albanese's meeting hopes
Matthew Knott - August 31, 2023
1/2
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese's hopes of meeting Xi Jinping on the sidelines of next week's G20 summit appear to have been dashed, with the Chinese President expected to deliver host India a diplomatic snub by skipping the high-powered event.
Albanese had hoped to use what would be his second meeting with Xi to further thaw relations with China and lay the groundwork for a visit to Beijing by the end of the year.
The revelation that Xi is expected to skip the G20 in New Delhi came as former foreign affairs minister Julie Bishop prepares to travel to China next week on a sensitive back-channel diplomatic mission.
Former Labor trade minister Craig Emerson is also set to visit Beijing alongside Australian business leaders, scholars and cultural representatives for the first Australia-China high-level dialogue to be held since early 2020, when relations between the two nations plummeted.
Quoting two Indian officials and one diplomat based in China, Reuters reported on Thursday that Chinese Premier Li Qiang, who is effectively Xi's deputy, is expected to represent Beijing at the September 9-10 meeting.
India said earlier this week it had lodged a "strong protest" with China after Beijing released a new version of its standard map showing Aksai Chin - an area of Kashmir mostly controlled by China - and the northeastern Indian state of Arunachal Pradesh within Chinese territory.
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Xi Jinping met at the BRICS summit in South Africa last week and agreed to "intensify efforts" to reduce tensions along the border.
Albanese told parliament earlier this month: "I met with Xi Jinping in November last year, and I'm sure that we will potentially meet again on the sidelines of the G20 meeting that will be coming up in the future."
Xi attended last year's G20 summit in Indonesia, where Russian President Vladimir Putin was the only invited leader to skip the event.

Yes23 targets Liberal seats, backed by unions
GEOFF CHAMBERS - AUGUST 30, 2023
The Yes23 campaign will direct its army of volunteers into 18 Liberal-held marginal seats and traditionally conservative electorates, under a national strategy to win support from millions of soft voters ahead of the October 14 referendum.
The Australian can reveal prominent moderate Liberal MPs and party luminaries will lead the push for undecided conservative voters in Western Australia, Tasmania, South Australia, NSW and Victoria to vote Yes for a constitutionally enshrined Indigenous voice advisory body.
With the Liberal Party state divisions and supporter bases at low ebbs, the No campaign concedes it cannot rely on party members to volunteer en masse at pre-polls and on referendum day.
Yes23 plans to take advantage of the weak state of Liberal campaigning infrastructure, harnessing its 28,000 volunteers and the combined resources of the ALP and union campaign machines to bombard marginal and swing seats over the next six-weeks.
Liberal seats on Yes23's target list include Deakin, Menzies, Banks, Bradfield, Hughes, Lindsay, Sturt, Bass and Braddon. Former Liberal seats held by teal independents and Labor, including Aston, Goldstein, Hasluck, Tangney, Curtin, Kooyong, North Sydney, Warringah and Wentworth, are also on the list.
Senior Yes23 campaigners believe "there are lots of undecided voters in these seats that can be swayed into the Yes column".
Yes23 campaign director Dean Parkin will join voice advocate and Liberal MP Julian Leeser in Sydney on Thursday, as the Liberals for Yes movement led by former ACT chief minister Kate Carnell and prominent Indigenous business leader Sean Gordon gathers momentum.
ACTU secretary Sally McManus said union members would join Yes23 campaigners to end discrimination against Indigenous Australians.
"The union movement was built on amplifying voices so they can be heard. For too long our parliaments have made laws about Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples without proper consultation with First Nations peoples," Ms McManus said.
"The union movement has listened to its membership who are keen to walk with their Indigenous colleagues and we will be supporting members to campaign on this issue."
With the No campaign needing to win one or both of Tasmania and South Australia, Yes23 is confident that grassroots campaigning by Bass Liberal MP Bridget Archer in northern Tasmania will get them over the line.
"This is an historic opportunity for Australia. There are Liberals across the country - like me - who support this because we want to see better outcomes, less wastage and real results," Ms Archer said.
A Yes23 campaigner said in addition to the push into Liberals territory, the Teals will rally supporters in NSW, Victoria and WA.
Malcolm Turnbull and former federal Liberal Party deputy leader Julie Bishop this week joined the Yes23 campaign in Perth and Sydney, and will continue supporting the push into Liberal Party heartland.
Mr Leeser, who quit his frontbench role as opposition Indigenous Australians spokesman in April after Peter Dutton announced the Coalition would oppose the voice, said "I believe Australians will vote for a better future".
"At a referendum, there are no parties on the ballot paper, nor candidates, there is only an idea on the ballot paper. The idea is to recognise Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders in the Constitution," Mr Leeser said.
"I believe the risk at this referendum is not change, but the risk lies in more of the same."
NSW Liberal MP and former NSW treasurer Matt Kean said he would be campaigning in his electorate of Hornsby, where voters were "already engaged".
"Being out in the community you hear a variety of views, but I'm voting Yes because I believe we have an incredible opportunity before us to hear from Indigenous Australians on the issues that affect them," Mr Kean said.
Ms Carnell said Liberals for Yes, which is co-ordinating volunteer activation, community forums and grassroots education programs, will promote genuine and practical change for Indigenous Australians to "like-minded Australians in a respectful way".
Mr Gordon said a Yes vote "simply reaffirms the request made to Australia by an overwhelming number of Indigenous people in delivering the Uluru Statement from the Heart".

Anthony Albanese won't be campaigning for an Indigenous voice to parliament each day
ROSIE LEWIS and PAIGE TAYLOR - AUGUST 28, 2023
Anthony Albanese won't campaign daily for an Indigenous Voice to Parliament, but instead appear at major referendum events in between running the country, declaring the proposal was "about just giving a bit of respect" to Indigenous people.
The Prime Minister attempted to play down the reach of the Voice by comparing it to business groups and stakeholders that provide advice to government.
Peter Dutton predicted a tight vote across the country - including in his home state of Queensland - and said Australians would be bullied into voting Yes.
A small number of cabinet ministers will join Mr Albanese at a "significant community rally" in the northern suburbs of Adelaide on Wednesday to announce the referendum date, which is expected to be October 14.
Attempting to defy No campaign accusations Labor was too focused on the Voice, government sources said Mr Albanese would be "working hard" on governing and delivering for Australians ?during the official campaign but would attend some major campaign events.
Ministers who hold portfolios where the gap between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians is starkest - such as Health Minister Mark Butler and Education Minister Jason Clare - will campaign alongside Yes23 to ?demonstrate "practical solutions the Voice poses".
With federal cabinet in Perth on Monday, Foreign Minister Penny Wong was joined by former Liberal deputy leader Julie Bishop for a street walk.
The Yes campaign told The Australian that in some of the city's suburbs 50 per cent of households were unaware of the Voice or that a referendum would take place later this year. There were also pockets of undecided voters above 40 per cent, giving Yes23 hope Western Australia, which consistently polls as a staunch No state, was still in play.
Mr Albanese said the state's scrapped cultural heritage laws had nothing to do with the Voice and the Indigenous advisory body would not make decisions about people's land, after opposition legal affairs spokeswoman Michaelia Cash led a campaign likening the Voice to the unpopular laws.
"All the Voice is is an advisory group, like business have groups and a lot of people give advice to government. What it will be is a structured advice group," Mr Albanese told Perth's Nova 97.3FM. "It will then be up to government to decide whether they agree with it or not on any issue. None of that will change."
Earlier he told Mix 94.5FM: "Remember with the apology to the Stolen Generations? It was like 'no, we can't apologise because there'll be all these consequences'. There weren't. Marriage equality, 'we couldn't have marriage equality because it would ruin straight marriages and it will change everyone's lives'. It didn't.
"This is about just giving a bit of respect to what is 3 per cent of the population. So, an upside for them with no downside for anyone else."
The Opposition Leader accused Mr Albanese of trying to deceive voters after The Australian revealed Yes23 was providing volunteers cheat sheets on how to redirect voters who ask why the Voice was needed now, raise concerns over the lack of detail and who believed the Voice was about "more than just recognition".
Yes23 campaigners have been given examples on how to "affirm, answer and redirect" under a plan to engage the base, persuade the maybes and ignore the opposition.
Mr Dutton conceded many Australians were still undecided though said those people were inclined to vote No "because the Prime Minister won't give them detail". "There's going to be a tight vote across the country," he said.
"The Yes campaign has $100m to spend between now and the 14th of October ... People will be bombarded with ads. People will be bullied into voting Yes. If I thought it was in our country's best interests, I'd sign up to it in a heartbeat - but it is not."
The government and Yes campaign have fiercely disputed the No camp's claim that Yes23 will spend $100m on the referendum.
Former foreign minister Ms Bishop said a successful referendum would give Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people their rightful place in the Constitution, but also the "right, and the risk and the responsibility to come up with policies that will address the ?problems, as they see them, and get better outcomes".
Asked how a No vote would be perceived overseas, she said: "I know that Australia's international reputation can be affected by a No vote. I have no doubt that it would be sending a very negative message about the openness, and the empathy, and the respect and responsibility that the Australian people have for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders."

Voice No vote will damage Australia's standing: Bishop
Tom Rabe and Tom McIlroy - Aug 28, 2023
Former foreign minister Julie Bishop says Australia's international reputation will be damaged if the country votes No in the looming Voice to parliament referendum.
Ms Bishop joined Foreign Minister Penny Wong in Perth on Monday for a street walk organised to build support for the Yes campaign in Western Australia, considered safe territory for the No side.
Ms Bishop, who served as foreign minister under Liberal leaders Tony Abbott and Malcolm Turnbull, echoed comments from Labor figures including Anthony Albanese that if voters rejected the Voice it risked sending a negative message about Australia's "openness and empathy".
She is popular with voters in Western Australia, but her support for the Voice puts her at odds with Opposition Leader Peter Dutton and senior WA Liberals including frontbenchers Michaelia Cash and Andrew Hastie.
"I know that Australia's international reputation can be affected by a No vote," Ms Bishop said.
"I have no doubt that it will be sending a very negative message about the openness and the empathy and the respect and responsibility that the Australian people have for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders.
"It's probably more difficult for Penny to say this because she's out there on the international stage having to promote Australia's current position, but I would be most concerned at the message this would send the rest of the world if we can't find it in our hearts to say yes."
Asked whether she agreed with Ms Bishop's assessment, Senator Wong said: "Julie, as always, is very eloquent and I'm going to leave it at that.
"This referendum is about recognition, it's about listening and it's about better outcomes, and as Julie very eloquently spoke about, this is something after 20 years in politics, you look at and think 'this is a way of trying to make sure we actually do better and listen to what Aboriginal Torres Strait Islander people have said to us'."
Ms Bishop is the Australian National University chancellor. She said the university believed the Uluru Statement from the Heart was an opportunity to address Indigenous disadvantage.
"I'm looking for a respectful, sensible debate across the nation," she said after the event with Yes23 campaign director Dean Parkin.
"I believe that this is an opportunity first to give Aboriginal Torres Strait Islanders their rightful place in the Constitution, but secondly, to give them the right and the risk and the responsibility to come up with policies that will address the problems as they see them and get better outcomes, and I truly believe that this is our opportunity."
The comments come as company directors supporting the Voice say advocates need a sharper message for voters about its benefits, and prepare to spend a $130,000 war chest.
Undecided voters
Organised by Ming Long, a director of Telstra and IFM Investors, and Nora Scheinkestel, who sits on the Westpac and Origin Energy boards, the group placed full-page advertisements advocating a Yes vote in national newspapers on Monday.
But Yes campaign spokesman Thomas Mayo said many voters wanted questions answered, and were yet to decide their position. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese is expected to announce a date for the referendum this week.
"What I've found over the years is that when you give people the explanation on what this vote is really about, it's basically just yes or no," he said.
"There's around 30 to 40 per cent of Australians that haven't made up their minds yet. And those are the people that we're going to be focusing on.
"We've been working furiously on being ready for this final run to the polls."
Campaigning in Queensland, Mr Dutton said he expected a tight result, but warned against a major advertising campaign by Voice supporters.
"People will be bombarded with ads. People will be bullied into voting Yes," he said.

'Don't wait' to go to Beijing, Julie Bishop tells Anthony Albanese
BEN PACKHAM - JULY 26, 2023
Julie Bishop says China's ?reappointment of Wang Yi as Foreign Minister ?"augurs well" for Australia's relationship with Beijing, and has urged Anthony Albanese to travel to Beijing as soon as possible to accelerate the thaw in bilateral ties.
Ms Bishop, a former foreign minister and now ANU chancellor, told the National Press Club that China would always be a "challenging partner", but Australia had strong economic and strategic reasons to get the relationship back on track.
The Prime Minister is currently weighing an invitation from Xi Jinping to visit China by the end of the year or delay the trip until Beijing drops its trade bans and ?releases detained Australians Cheng Lei and Yang Hengjun.
Ms Bishop said Mr Albanese shouldn't wait for the issues to be resolved. "I would accept the ?invitation. I would attend graciously. The trade barriers and the outstanding thawing of relations would be at the top of my agenda," she said.
Ms Bishop, who was publicly dressed down by Mr Wang on her first trip to Beijing as foreign minister, said her former Chinese counterpart was a "highly professional diplomat" who understood Australia.
Mr Wang was reappointed this week as China's Foreign Minister after the disappearance of the incumbent, rising star Qin Gang, in mysterious circumstances. Mr Qin has not been seen for a month and is the subject of rumours of an affair with a prominent Hong Kong television presenter.
Ms Bishop said: "I know Wang Yi well. He has an unceasing ability to promote China's national interests. He knows Australia well. I think he augurs well for the relationship."
She said she always had professional dealings with Mr Wang except on one occasion, "but we won't go into that".
In December 2013, Mr Wang opened a meeting with Ms ?Bishop by declaring Australia had "jeopardised bilateral mutual trust". The comment followed her decision to haul in Beijing's ambassador to protest a Chinese air identification zone in the East China Sea.
Ms Bishop said in her speech that "megatrends" ?including ?artificial intelligence, global power shifts, climate change and the backlash over globalisation were reshaping the world.
She called for Australia to play a mediating role between the great powers to de-escalate tensions on Taiwan, and said it was time the UN called a forum along the lines of its Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change to develop safeguards around the development of artificial intelligence.
Amid rumours of a potential return to diplomatic life, Ms Bishop refused to say whether she had been sounded out by the Albanese government as Australia's next ambassador to France, saying she would not play the "rule in, rule out" game.
"That would be a matter ?between me and whoever was doing the asking," she said. "But I can assure you that I am more than delighted with my role at the Australian National ?University."
The Productivity Commission has reported that China's long-running trade bans on Australian exports have had virtually zero impact on the economy, underlining the ?nation's resilience to such coercive conduct.
Ms Bishop said China's ?actions had forced Australian exporters to diversify, which was "good trade policy".
She said Australia should continue to look for new export markets, but should not hesitate to re-engage with its biggest trading partner. "We need to be part of the global economy and China is a significant part of that economy," she said.

Chris Hipkins signals support for Indigenous voice to parliament through NZ example
ROSIE LEWIS - JULY 27, 2023
New Zealand Prime Minister Chris Hipkins has held up his country as one that has successfully embraced reconciliation with its Indigenous people, in a strong signal of trans-Tasman support for the voice referendum.
Standing alongside Anthony Albanese in Wellington, Mr Hipkins would not comment directly on the looming poll on an Indigenous voice to parliament and executive government - acknowledging that it was a matter for the Australian people - but said New Zealand was a stronger country because of its Treaty of Waitangi.
While there had been controversies in New Zealand's path to reconcil?iation, Mr Hipkins assured Australians that life had moved on.
"I am firmly of the view that the process of reconciliation that New Zealand has been going through for a number of decades has been overwhelmingly positive for New Zealand. That doesn't mean that there haven't been bumps in the road, that doesn't mean there haven't been periods where it has been very controversial," Mr Hipkins said following the Australia-New Zealand leaders' meeting.
"But when I look back at some of those controversies, many of which have happened during my lifetime and actually during my adult lifetime, things moved on. Yes, they were controversial at the time and now many people would look back on them and wonder what was so controversial about them, because the reconciliation process has ulti?mately been very positive."
Mr Albanese stressed on numerous occasions that Australia's and New Zealand's histories were different but said there was a consciousness about the voice referendum when he spoke to people in the Pacific.
New Zealand is increasingly embedding its Maori heritage in its national affairs.
"Of all the First World nations that would form colonies, we are alone in not recognising the First Nations peoples ... Our history in Australia goes back before 1788 and that should be acknowledged in our nation's founding document," the Australian Prime Minister said.
"What is being asked to vote for (at the referendum) is very clear and very specific ... It's important that people know what the vote is for and what it is not.
"It is for those specific things of recognition, listening in order to achieve better outcomes."
As the polls show falling support for the voice, which is due to be voted on between October and December, leading No campaigner Warren Mundine declared there was nothing specific or clear about the referendum.
"That's the problem. Polling shows people are confused about it, that's the No. 1 issue they raise," he said.
"No one know what a voice is. It's just totally bizarre (Mr Albanese's claim). The good news is that the Australian public want recognition of Aboriginal people in the Constitution and want practical outcomes for Aboriginal people - they don't see the voice as bringing about those practical outcomes."
Former deputy Liberal leader Julie Bishop on Wednesday threw her support behind the voice, saying it would be a "a step in the right direction" and had to be given a chance.
She conceded the referendum was made more complex by two Indigenous leaders fronting the Yes and No cases in Noel Pearson and Mr Mundine, saying it put its success at greater risk and confused Australians.
"It is a step in the right direction. I sat through too many of those Closing the Gap speeches in parliament to sense that what we were doing was working to close the disparity and the inequality between Indigenous and non-indigenous populations," she told the National Press Club.
"In some instances, the key measures were getting worse, not better. So it's not a question of money, it's not a question of politicians coming up with policies, it's a question of giving Indigenous people the franchise to make decisions to implement policies that will work. We have got to give it a chance."
Ms Bishop would not say whether she was disappointed her party was campaigning against the voice or that Peter Dutton had labelled it divisive, Orwellian and something that would "re-racialise" Australia.

'Failure is not an option': Dreyfus optimistic Voice referendum will overcome opposition
Farrah Tomazin - July 20, 2023
1/2
Toronto: Federal Attorney-General Mark Dreyfus says he is confident most Australians will support the Indigenous Voice to parliament once they are engaged with the issue, declaring change is long overdue and "failure is not an option".
Speaking in Canada - where Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has tied his legacy to improving the lives of Indigenous people - Dreyfus also hit out at the No campaign, accusing it of stoking fear, raising "red herrings" and trying to confuse voters with misinformation ahead of this year's referendum.
The referendum, which is expected to take place in October or November, will ask voters if they want to change the Constitution to recognise the First Peoples of Australia and set up an advisory body allowing the parliament and the government to listen to what they have to about to say about the policies that affect them.
Asked how the government would ensure the Yes case would cut through given polls showed public support was waning, Dreyfus said campaigning would step up but added: "Some Australians won't take a great deal of interest in this until much closer to the referendum date."
"We have not set the date yet. As is always the case with Australian political events - like elections, or like the marriage equality plebiscite that we had - they get more intense as the day approaches," he told this masthead.
"We can see that many people have still not engaged … I'm confident that Australians are going to support this."
Dreyfus was in North America attending the Australia-Canada Economic Leadership Forum, which is co-chaired by former foreign affairs minister Julie Bishop and seeks to identify where the two countries can work more closely on trade, investment, climate change and foreign policy.
Indigenous issues were also a hot topic; Trudeau cited reconciliation as a shared value between the two nations while former Liberal Indigenous Australians Minister Ken Wyatt - who is now on the board of Energy Resources Australia - sat on a panel discussing Indigenous economic development.
Wyatt quit his party after Peter Dutton announced it would support the No case, while Trudeau has made it his mission to improve the fortunes of First Nations (Indians), M?tis and Inuit citizens who make up Canada's Indigenous peoples, which represent about 5 per per cent of the population.
In 2015, Trudeau campaigned for office promising further improvements in everything from infrastructure and education to new "nation to nation" relationships with the hundreds of Indigenous groups in Canada.
Tens of billions of dollars in reparations have also been paid by successive governments for various harms caused over the years.
"They are further advanced on the road to reconciliation and recognition than we are," Dreyfus said, noting that Australia could learn from Canada's experience, despite it not being perfect.
"We still haven't achieved recognition in our constitutional for our First Peoples."

Thomas Mayo and Kate Chaney get plaudits in Perth, but WA regions rail against the voice
PAIGE TAYLOR - JULY 17, 2023
1/2
Night was falling when 650 people filed past the Olympic-sized swimming pool at Perth's Newman College into Marist Auditorium. They came to listen to the case for an Indigenous voice to parliament.
The college is the alma mater of Formula One driver Daniel Ricciardo. It is geographically in the centre of one of the most advantaged electorates in Australia, the Golden Triangle of real estate between the Swan River and the Indian Ocean. It is 600km by road, and figuratively a million miles, from the Goldfields that built the state. There, Kalgoorlie-Boulder Mayor John Bowler believes locals have decided against the voice before pamphlets from either side of the debate arrive in their letterboxes.
Newman College is in the seat of Curtin, previously held by former foreign minister Julie Bishop. It was Western Australia's safest Liberal seat until Kate Chaney of the high-achieving Chaney dynasty took it from Celia Hammond at the last federal election.
Chaney is a teal, but is campaigning on the voice with Greens senator Dorinda Cox and Labor minister Madeleine King.
She was helped during her campaign by her uncle Fred Chaney, the Aboriginal affairs minister in the Fraser government who had come to believe his old party was unfit to govern, largely because of Robodebt.
The voice forum was the former Anglicare executive's biggest event yet. Some of the western suburbs' favourite sons and daughters were there. Former chief justice of Australia Robert French was onstage with child health researcher Fiona Stanley, after whom the state's biggest hospital is named. Janet Holmes a Court was in the audience.
There was a standing ovation for Yes campaigner Thomas Mayo after he recited the Uluru Statement from the Heart without notes. The Yes campaign believes it can still win WA. That is why Indigenous Australians Minister Linda Burney has just spent six days there, flying out on Sunday night after talks with Indigenous people from the south coast to the far north Kimberley. A campaign insider said the Albanese government was in possession of secret polling showing the No vote in WA was in the high 40s and the Yes vote was in the high 30s, but the key detail was that undecideds sat at 15 per cent.
Out in the WA farming and mining electorate of O'Connor, Liberal MP Rick Wilson sees baked-in opposition. In the last week of June, Wilson ran a survey of his own email database. Though it lacked any of the rigour of a poll, Wilson's survey concluded 80.1 per cent of the 1487 respondents intended to vote No at the voice referendum later this year.
While Liberal MP Bridget Archer campaigned with Burney for the voice in Launceston for two days last week, Wilson will not help Burney.
"I won't be campaigning with Linda but it would be fair to say she needs all the help she can get," Wilson said.
The biggest regional centre in Wilson's electorate is Kalgoorlie-Boulder, the division where in 1967 an unusually high 33.32 per cent of voters said No to constitutional changes that took away the states' sole responsibility for laws governing Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.
The WA Labor government's new Aboriginal heritage laws have become a thorn in the side of the Yes campaign in O'Connor. The update to existing laws was broadly welcomed in the wake of the destruction of Juukan Gorge in 2020 but the legislation, enacted on July 1, has become ammunition for voice opponents. Though properties under 1100sq m are exempt, as are a long list of activities such as building a patio or installing a pool, wild claims have proliferated on social media. Noongar man Mervyn Eades was on the verge of tears after reading comments about those new laws on the Facebook page of WA Liberal leader Libby Mettam.
"The farmers are shitting themselves. They are scared. We don't want nothing that's theirs but they think we do," Eades told The Australian.

Many women who call themselves feminists don't want to understand conservative women. To quote Reynolds, when "we crack on, when we do things, and we try to make a difference", that is ignored by many so-called feminists, especially in the media. "Because we don't identify with that very victim-centric side of feminism - and it's very tribal - they don't get that. They don't want to get it. And so, we're invisible. Worse than that. They won't protect you when you're out there being attacked."
Think about Lidia Thorpe's foul comment to Hollie Hughes - it won't be repeated here. Or the torrent of abuse that Nicolle Flint endured before she left politics. Labor women and so-called progressive women in the media had little to say on that.
Reynolds says she was expendable and so was Brown. Both were painted by Labor and a large section of the media, mostly female journalists, as villains.
Reynolds is right that conservative women are often treated as invisible by so-called feminists in the media. The former defence minister had some pointed words for Annabel Crabb and her ABC Ms Represented program that aired last year. Reynolds told me that Crabb's show about women making strides in Australian politics was so skewed towards celebrating women on the left that she texted Crabb as follows: "Ms Represented may be interested to know that my side of politics has now had two female defence ministers and two foreign ministers, the first time two defence portfolio ministers at the same time were women, the first and second time Australia was represented at AUSMIN by two women, the first (female) home affairs minister, the current (female) attorney-general. The first time three women are on the national security committee ... and the list goes on.
"You have missed what is hidden in plain sight," wrote Reynolds. "The first time EVER there are eight women in cabinet, all of whom are doing amazing work - in our own way - comfortably in our own skins as female leaders."
Reynolds told me it was as if these eight women in cabinet were inconvenient truths to Crabb, and history stopped at Julie Bishop.
Exhibitions of performance art in parliament are hardly uncommon. But some Labor women, Gallagher and Wong included, are up to their eyeballs in the toxic culture they complain so loudly about. Their cliquey, catty feminism made a target of Kimberley Kitching, too. Who can forget Wong's cruel gibe to Kitching in 2018 during a policy debate to the effect: "Well, if you had children, you might understand why there is a climate emergency"? Wong apologised to Kitching only when the exchange was made public.
So the lesson is this: if you genuinely want to establish the highest standards of workplace behaviour, treat your political opponents with respect, not just your political girlfriends.
It's like free speech. Your belief in it is real only when you recognise the right of your opponents to speak.

Rudd tells US not to 'throw allies under a bus'
John Kehoe - Jan 4, 2023
Australia's soon-to-be ambassador to the United States, Kevin Rudd, says America needs to stop throwing some foreign allies "under a bus" on trade and economics if it wants to build international support to push back against China.
Dr Rudd's frank public assessment about Australia's closest ally raised mixed reactions among foreign policy experts on Wednesday, amid contention about the Albanese government's announcement last month that the former prime minister would become Australia's next envoy in Washington.
Dr Rudd said in a television interview that the Biden administration's Secretary of State Antony Blinken and National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan "have done a good job in herding the cats, both in Asia and also, frankly, in Europe so far.
"However, for the future, what is the missing element in US grand strategy?" he asked on Bloomberg TV.
"It's called the economy, stupid," he said, echoing a political line used by former US president Bill Clinton's adviser to help win elections.
"And that is, you cannot continue to assume that there'll be collective solidarity on security questions.
"But on the economy, the United States is happy to throw some of its allies under a bus.
"And for those reasons the United States Congress needs to embrace instead a different strategy, which opens its markets more towards allies in Asia and in Europe, despite the overriding protectionist sentiment of the US Congress and political class."
Dr Rudd made clear he was speaking in his capacity as president of the New York-based Asia Society and that he would officially commence as ambassador in three months.
John Lee, a former adviser to former foreign affairs minister Julie Bishop, said a credible US strategy required enhanced American market access and that Mr Rudd was likely to tell Americans this in "his typical forthright manner".
"It is in the national and regional interest that he do so," Dr Lee said.
Another foreign policy scholar who has worked in Washington and Canberra said it was "just remarkable he is out there like this before becoming 'ambo'."
"He cannot shut up. The Yanks won't like being lectured in public."
In the joint interview with Mr Rudd, Eurasia Group president Ian Bremmer said Dr Rudd was "completely right".
"We, the United States, do not have a trade policy. We don't have one.
"And so as Kevin said, unless Congress, the Democrats, the Republicans are prepared to actually speak coherently about a long-term US economic strategy, the national security policy by itself doesn't get you there."
Offset China's growing power
Dr Rudd said the US could not afford to have a strategy on China with "one arm tied behind its back".
His remarks about US trade protectionism follow former US president Donald Trump imposing tariffs and other trade restrictions on foreign allies in Asia and Europe.
Mr Trump also stopped the US from joining the Trans-Pacific Partnership, a multilateral trade deal with Pacific Rim nations including Australia.
A strategic aim of the TPP was for the US to forge closer economic ties with Asian nations to offset China's growing economic power in the region.
Former prime minister Malcolm Turnbull and several other world leaders at the time lamented the US's retreat from trade liberalisation and towards protectionism, including Kurt Campbell, who is now US President Joe Biden's top Asia adviser.
Dr Rudd was Labor prime minister from 2007 to 2010, before being ousted by Julia Gillard. He briefly returned as leader in 2013 before Labor lost the election.
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said last month the 65-year-old Dr Rudd had unmatched qualifications to represent Australia's interests with Joe Biden, and on Capitol Hill.
"Dr Rudd brings unmatched experience to the role," Mr Albanese said last month.
"He will conduct himself in a way that brings great credit to Australia."
Dr Rudd is due to replace outgoing ambassador Arthur Sinodinos in March.
Mr Biden is due to visit Australia for a meeting of the Quadrilateral Security Dialogue leaders in Australia in the first half of 2023.
Mr Albanese will also visit the US this year.

'You can't just sympathise': Zelensky calls on more support to fight tyranny
David Crowe - August 3, 2022
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has called on China to join other nations in condemning Russia for waging war against his country amid signs that China is buying Russian oil in record volumes.
Zelensky told an Australian audience on Wednesday that he was doing everything he could to ensure Russia was isolated from other countries but he could see China was "balancing" its position.
Telling thousands of students in an online address organised by the Australian National University that he was grateful for Australian support so far, Zelensky also emphasised the need for more practical support in a sign he wants more defence and humanitarian supplies on top of pledges worth $388 million in the 161 days since the February 24 invasion.
"[Russia] are powerful - they have more people, they have more weapons, they have nuclear weapons. It's a struggle of tyranny against democracy, so you can't stand aside if you support common principles with Ukraine," he said.
"You can't just sympathise, I will be frank. We thank you for your moral support but you also need to support us with deeds in order for us to have the opportunity to win. We need support with concrete actions.
"A lot of Australians are helping us a lot and render humanitarian assistance - please don't forget about it, please continue."
With China engaging in military exercises against Taiwan, an Australian student asked Zelensky if he believed it was possible to enlist support from China against Russia.
"We see that Russia is losing its economic allies - it is not very full-scale, but still, it loses it," he replied.
"And I would like China to join the unified world position on the tyranny of Russia against Ukraine.
"As for now, China is balancing and indeed and has neutrality. I will be honest: this neutrality is better than if China would join Russia.
"I believe the people of China will do the prudent choice. It's important for us that China will not help Russia. Some nations help the Russian Federation a little and they do not feel for themselves the influence this war has made on the whole world."
The address drew an audience of 1300 in a Canberra theatre as well as 3500 viewers online.
Former foreign minister Julie Bishop, now ANU Chancellor, hosted 10 questions from students including one who asked whether Russia and Ukraine might ever mend their relations.
Zelensky said this was the "hardest question" because nobody in Ukraine wanted to have anything in common with a people who inflicted war crimes upon Ukraine, which meant repairing relations was up to the people of Russia.
With Labor foreign affairs assistant minister Tim Watts and Liberal foreign affairs spokesman Simon Birmingham in the audience, the Ukrainian leader rubbished the idea that Russian President Vladimir Putin would be interested in a settlement that could "save face" and end the war.
"The one who wants to save face doesn't commit the hundreds and thousands of military crimes and crimes against humanity, doesn't commit the massive executions of a peaceful population, doesn't put them on their knees and kill them with a shot in their back," he said.
Zelensky listed crimes including rape and torture and dismissed the idea of saving face for people who had committed those crimes.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has called on Australia to "continue to help Ukraine" in an address to the Australian National University.
"I am very thankful to Anthony Albanese government who made significant systematic support to our country, which includes full-scale military and humanitarian assistance, sanctions against Russia and Belarusian legal and physical entities, the cancelling of Ukrainian goods taxes, and even the coal for Ukrainian energy," Mr Zelensky said.
Mr Zelensky was introduced by ANU chancellor and former foreign affairs minister Julie Bishop.
"Currently your country gives the biggest military support among the countries that are non-NATO countries," Mr Zelensky said.
"I call on you to continue to help us, to continue to help Ukraine, including in your classrooms by standing for the truth and debunking the myth that were .. so skillfully fabricated by the Russian propaganda machine."

The event, to be officially opened by ANU Chancellor and former Australian foreign minister the Hon Julie Bishop, will also feature a Q&A session between the President and students. Head of the National Security College at ANU, Professor Rory Medcalf, will close the event.
Nearly six months since Russia's invasion of Ukraine, President Zelenskyy will share his experiences as a world leader navigating the realities of war.
"Russia's invasion of Ukraine threatens the peace, liberty and democracy on which freedom of inquiry and academic collaboration is based," ANU Vice-Chancellor Professor Brian Schmidt said.
"That's why ANU released a statement in March strongly condemning this act of war and its fundamental breaches of international law and the UN Charter.
"ANU stands in solidarity with the Ukrainian people in their defence of sovereignty and freedom.
"President Zelenskyy continues to inspire the world through his leadership and service to his country.
"We are incredibly grateful to have President Zelenskyy share his time and thoughts with our community."
The event is presented by the ANU Centre for European Studies, the ANU National Security College and the Embassy of Ukraine in Australia.

Wong, Wang meeting in Bali was no 'reset'
WILL GLASGOW - JULY 10, 2022
At least China's Foreign Minister Wang Yi didn't berate Penny Wong in front of a media pack in Bali. Her predecessors weren't always so lucky.
Back in 2013, Wang exploded at Julie Bishop after she expressed mild criticism over Beijing's declaration of an air defence identification zone in the disputed East China Sea.
"It felt like an ambush," Bishop told me last year.
Wang's outburst was extraordinary back in December 2013. One senior Australian foreign affairs official said he had "never in 30 years encountered such rudeness".
It marked the beginning of a new period: the era of the Wolf Warrior diplomat.
Beijing's diplomatic corps - "China's Civilian Army", as they refer to themselves - have always been assertive. However, eruptions of the sort Bishop experienced had become uncommon in the decades before Xi Jinping took office in 2013.
Now they are routine.
The China that Foreign Minister Wong and the Albanese government are dealing with considers such tantrums a legitimate diplomatic tool.
Another anti-diplomatic tool of Xi's China is the total cessation of ministerial contact when things get difficult, as it did for almost three years with the Morrison government.
On Friday, in a sideline meeting at the G20 foreign ministers' meeting in Bali, Wang finally deemed to speak to his Australian counterpart. Of course that is a good thing.
"It's a first step for both our nations,'' Senator Wong said after the meeting.
The Chinese, for their part, took more than 24 hours to give their account, as they waited to see what the Australian government said first.
Minutes before midnight on Saturday, Foreign Minister Wang gave his version in a statement, in which he said the "root cause" of the breakdown was the Coalition government's "irresponsible words and deeds".
"[Mr Wang] expressed hope that the Australian side would seize the current opportunity and take actions to improve bilateral relations," China's Foreign Ministry said in the statement.
Beijing tried a similar strategy with the Biden administration, putting all the blame for the US-China breakdown on Donald Trump and his team. More than 18 months on, US-China relations remain terrible.
Ahead of the meeting, Chinese foreign ministry spokesman explained what Beijing wanted.
"A reset requires concrete actions," Chinese foreign ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian instructed.
That might be true, but Canberra is not after a "reset". The goal, as Foreign Minister Wong explained, is to "stabilise" relations with China.
That is a good description of the difficult task. The Albanese government wants to put a floor under the tattered relationship.
Zhao may not have got the memo, but talk of another "reset" is an anathema in Canberra. Australia's relations with China have already been reset. That happened in the Turnbull government, was furthered by the Morrison government and now continues in the Albanese era.
Banning Huawei from Australia's 5G network, passing foreign interference legislation to limit Chinese government-backed activity in Australia, working with friends and partners to defend the international rules based system that Beijing is putting under stress - that was the reset.
And to be fair, it is understandable it enraged our biggest trading partner.
China has changed under Xi Jinping. But so, in response, has Australia. No wonder many in Beijing have whiplash.
Less than eight years ago, after President Xi addressed the Australian parliament, Tony Abbott lauded what he had heard as the Chinese leader's commitment to make the People's Republic of China "fully democratic" by 2050.
To put it politely, members of Australia's political class were, at least until 2015, stunningly naive about the reality of China. Not anymore.
Good relations between the two countries are impossible right now. That is not the fault of Australian diplomacy. It is a function of deep and wide disagreements - many of which were raised by Wong in her meeting with Wang.
And how could Australia have good relations with a country that treats communication with its Foreign Minister as a concession, rather than just normal behaviour?
After the 2017-2022 reset, Australia-China relations deteriorated to an appalling state. The goal for the Albanese government is to try to transform an appalling Australia-China relationship into a bad Australia-China relationship or, if things go better than expected, a fraught Australia-China relationship.
Forget good. Work towards less bad.
Even that won't be easy, but the meeting in Bali was a step in the right direction.

We can 'get relationship back on track': China ambassador Xiao Qian says
HEIDI HAN - JUNE 24, 2022
Beijing's Envoy to Australia said China hoped the relationship can get "back on the right track at an early date" and he remained "optimistic", despite being repeatedly interrupted by protesters during his first public speech.
At least five protesters, including anti-Chinese Communist Party activist Drew Pavlou, led several intervals at the beginning of Xiao Qian's speech at a hybrid event hosted by the Australia-China Relations Institute at the University of Technology Sydney, causing streaming of the event to be temporarily halted multiple times. The protesters, who were carrying signs and shouting "Free Tibet, Hong Kong" and "Stop genocide" against Uyghurs, were removed before Mr Xiao pressed on his speech.
Mr Xiao urged Australia to respect China's sovereignty and territorial integrity, political system, and development mode, and suggested China was "an opportunity, not a so-called threat to Australia".
"There is every reason for China and Australia to be friends and partners, rather than adversaries, or even the so-called enemies," he said.
"China's policy towards Australia remains unchanged," Mr Xiao said, adding China hoped the Labor government could "join a considerate effort" and "bring our bilateral relations to the right track".
"We are having some problems now. That doesn't mean we have to negate the past 50 years, " said Mr Xiao, referring to the 50th Anniversary of the diplomatic relation by the end of the year and suggesting China is "ready to discuss" a temporary note to a joint celebration.
On China's trade ban against Australian export, Mr Xiao said "it all started" from the former Morrison government, and attributed the tariff to "Chinese businesses' complaints" and "reactions of the Chinese public" to "policies, actions, and rhetorics by some people in Australia".
Responding to questions around the prolonged detention of UTS alumnus Dr Yang Hengjun and Australian journalist Cheng Lei, the ambassador called to respect China's jurisdiction system, as the host, Director of ACRI James Laurenceson pressed concerns.
Mr Xiao this week met ALP national secretary Paul Erick?son, former Prime Minister John Howard, and former foreign minister Bob Carr. Before that, he visited some of the largest miners of the country including BHP, Rio Tinto, FMG, and Chinese new materials company Tianqi Lithium, and shook hands with a media mogul, dancers, educators, politicians, and CEOs during an intensive four-day journey to Western Australia early this month.
Praising WA as a "role model" and "pacesetter" in promoting co-operation between the two countries, Mr Qian gave a thumb-up to Premier Mark McGowan's "long-term adherence to an objective and rational view of China and active promotion of co-operation with China" when the two met in Perth. He also met WA governor Kim Beazley and his successor Chris Dawson, president of the upper house Alanna Clohesy, speaker of the lower house Michelle Roberts, influential former WA politician Julie Bishop, and newly elected Malaysian-Australian MP Sam Lim.
When he met former Chairman of the Seven West Media Kerry Stokes, the ambassador spoke highly of the group's "long-standing objective and balanced" coverage around China and thanked Mr Stoke's contribution to "enhancing friendly exchanges and cooperations over the years" before taking a private tour of the billionaire's art collections.
At the beginning of the pandemic, Mr Stokes used the front page of The West Australian newspaper to call on then Prime Minister Scott Morrison to "mend relations with China" amid Australia's push for an international inquiry into the origins of the coronavirus.

Labor national secretary Paul Erickson meets China's top diplomat, Xiao Qian
James Massola - June 23, 2022
Federal Labor's national secretary, Paul Erickson, has met with Beijing's ambassador to Australia Xiao Qian to discuss the trade sanctions on Australian exports and a recent incident involving a Chinese fighter jet and RAAF surveillance aircraft in a further sign the new government is intent on improving relations with China.
The meeting came at the embassy's request and took place last Tuesday in Canberra, after the Labor Party official sought advice from the government to confirm the meeting was appropriate.
The embassy posted a picture of the pair on its website after the meeting and said the pair "exchanged views on the relationship between the two parties, the two countries and issues of mutual concern".
In a statement in response to questions about the meeting Erickson said it "was an opportunity to share the Labor Party's view that a constructive relationship between Australia and China is in both of our countries' interests".
"I reinforced Labor's view that trade restrictions against Australian exporters are unreasonable and should be lifted in order to stabilise the relationship," he said.
"I also took the opportunity to raise concerns about the treatment of Australians detained in China, and reinforced the deep concerns raised by Defence Minister Richard Marles about recent PLA behaviour towards an Australian aircraft."
That incident saw a Chinese fighter jet release flares and small pieces of metal known as chaff dangerously close to an Australian RAAF P-8 surveillance aircraft, threatening the safety of the plane and the crew.
The episode was described by Defence Minister Richard Marles as "very dangerous" and raised his concerns directly with Beijing.
Marles met with China's Defence Minister Wei Fenghe for an hour during the Shangri La dialogue in Singapore last week, the highest level contact between ministers from the two countries in more than two years.
Since arriving in January, Xiao has met Foreign Minster Penny Wong, former prime ministers John Howard and Paul Keating and former foreign ministers Marise Payne and Julie Bishop.
Former prime minister Scott Morrison rejected Xiao's request for a meeting.
Xiao's efforts to meet senior figures in both major parties have been interpreted as the beginning of a potential thaw in relations between Australia and China.
Diplomatic relations between Canberra and Beijing have been in a diplomatic deep freeze because of more than $20 billion in sanctions and tariffs on Australian goods including beef, barley, wine, coal and lobsters.

Albanese should handle any outreach from China with caution
WILL GLASGOW - MAY 23, 2022
How long until China launches its first verbal attack on the Albanese government? I would give it about 48 hours.
Anthony Albanese's meeting on Tuesday with the leaders of the Quad in Tokyo should trigger the usual outrage in Beijing about "Cold War mindsets".
Days after the Quad meeting, China's Foreign Minister Wang Yi is expected to visit Solomon Islands to sign a new secret security agreement. Brace for another spray about Canberra's "colonial mentality".
Furious party-speak diatribes will soon fill Penny Wong's daily media briefings, as they did those of her predecessors as foreign minister, Marise Payne and Julie Bishop.
An improvement in the relationship that works for both countries is possible - indeed, the way there is obvious. At any time, Beijing can end its black-listing of Australian coal, wine, barley, lobster and other imports, previously worth about $20bn a year.
It would hardly be a selfless gift by China to Australia. Beijing's vindictiveness has greatly increased the cost of coking coal used by Chinese steelmakers.
Similarly, China's Foreign Minister could call his new counterpart at any time. The same with the rest of the ministry. After all, the decision to end ministerial contact was made by Beijing, not Canberra.
The final phone call came from Wang on January 29, 2020, when he assured Payne that China would "stay in close communication and co-ordination with Australia".
No minister in the Australian government has heard from them since. Requests for calls have gone unanswered. Letters have been unacknowledged.
The Department of Foreign Affairs assessed that Beijing had decided to "wait out" the Coalition. At some point, China will end its self-imposed silence.
The end of Beijing's trade blockades and the resumption of normal dialogue would be a good thing, but the Albanese government should handle any outreach with caution.
Albanese and Wong need to be careful they do not create a terrible precedent. Beijing must not be taught that its coercive tactics against Australia can be erased with a change of government, as former Australian diplomat Hugh Piper has said.
"On China, a new government should actually do very little," he argues in a piece for the Lowy Institute. "Remaining consistent on national security and principled positions on human rights, for example, will demonstrate to Beijing that fundamental points of sovereignty and national identity are not up for negotiation."
It is excellent advice.
There is a whole world beyond the People's Republic of China to busy Australia's new government. Southeast Asia and the Pacific Islands are top of the list.
And there is the busy agenda of the Quad, whose three other member countries - America, Japan and India - all have their own China troubles.
Even if it wanted to, the Australian government would struggle to get the attention of its leader right now.
Beijing is consumed in domestic politics ahead of a political gathering in November that will give Xi Jinping his audacious third, five-year-term as leader.
At some point, Xi will turn his attention to Canberra. Australia's new government should not feel any pressure to hurry that along.
As China's diplomats like to say, the ball is in Beijing's court.

2/2
Zoe Daniel, a former ABC journalist, knocked off assistant minister Tim Wilson in Goldstein after a bitter campaign that included human excrement being smeared on signs.
"What we have achieved here is extraordinary. Safe Liberal seat, two-term incumbent," Ms Daniel told her celebrating supporters on Saturday night.
Goldstein had never been won by anyone other than the Liberal Party. If you include the earlier period when it was called Balaclava, it had been Liberal since 1945.
Mr Wilson, for his part, blamed his troubles on an "unholy alliance" between GetUp!, the Labor Party and the Greens, among others.
Kylea Tink took North Sydney from another moderate Liberal MP, Trent Zimmerman, marking the first time the Liberals haven't held the seat since 1996.
On election night, Finance Minister Simon Birmingham said Mr Zimmerman was the victim of a "contagion effect" and was being "punished" for the views of other candidates.
He was quite obviously alluding to Katherine Deves, the controversial Liberal candidate in neighbouring Warringah, whose extreme views on transgender people plagued her colleagues throughout much of the campaign.
And Kate Chaney claimed the WA seat Curtin, once held by Julie Bishop, unseating conservative MP Celia Hammond after a single term.
Curtin was previously held by an independent, Allan Rocher, for just one term between 1995 and 1998. Otherwise it had been Liberal since 1949.
Ms Chaney is another example of an independent from a Liberal family, incidentally; her grandfather, Fred Chaney, was a minister in the Menzies government and her uncle was a senator.
Her impressively funded campaign included a $350,000 donation from Simon Holmes a Court's Climate 200 organisation.
'Stick it up your jumper'
Speaking of Mr Holmes a Court and his financial support for the teal independents, the millionaire popped up during Channel 9's election night coverage, speaking to the network's panel from Kooyong.
This was somewhat awkward, because one of Nine's panellists was Liberal Senator Jane Hume, whom Mr Holmes a Court confronted at a pre-poll location last week, ignoring requests to leave her alone.
"Do you regret the scenes at the pre-poll booth in the last week of the campaign involving one of our panellists here, Jane Hume?" asked anchor Alicia Loxley.
"Look, Jane has for a long time spread lies and mistruths about me. I've asked her publicly to withdraw, and she won't," Mr Holmes a Court said.
"I asked her in a public forum. Probably wasn't the place to do it, but I'm looking forward to that retraction of lies from Jane Hume."
"That didn't answer the question. Do you regret the scenes?" Loxley pressed.
"Unfortunately. Those who have seen the full video will see really what went on. I think, as I've said to Jane, I gave my apology. I don't think that was an appropriate place for it, but I hope we can get a resolution and she can withdraw the lies as we come out of this election," he responded.
Ms Hume called his apology "a 'sorry, not sorry'".
"If you see the full video, it was a set-up. Simon, it was pretty disgraceful behaviour. I hope it took some paint off your celebrations tonight," she told him.
"Looking forward to getting your full apology, thanks, Jane," Mr Holmes a Court shot back.
"Stick it up your jumper," Ms Hume said.

'Not a real Australian': bold claim made in Ben Roberts-Smith defamation case
STEPHEN RICE - APRIL 26, 2022
An SAS soldier giving evidence in the Ben Roberts-Smith defamation case has claimed that during an attempted rescue mission of a dual Australian/British national in Afghanistan, the head of Australian special forces in Afghanistan made the disparaging comment that the woman was "not a real Australian anyway".
The SAS soldier said the comment was made in 2016 by Australian Special Operations Commander Jeff Sengelman during a video teleconference, as Australian special forces were trying to get more back up to support them on the mission.
The soldier, known as Person 5, says he decided to leave the military after this episode.
The reference appears to be to a mission to rescue abducted aid worker Kerry Jane Wilson, who was held for four months after she was kidnapped at gunpoint from her office in the country's east.
At the time, the Afghan intelligence agency, National Directorate for Security (NDS), would only say that special forces had staged the overnight rescue operation to secure Wilson's freedom, and arrested four suspects in connection with the kidnapping.
Then Australian Foreign Minister Julie Bishop confirmed Wilson had been released unharmed and thanked Afghan authorities.
"I deeply appreciate the work of the authorities in Afghanistan whose support and assistance facilitated her release, as well as Australian consular staff who continue to provide assistance to Ms. Wilson and her family," Ms Bishop said in a statement.
Wilson's charity had been helping women in Afghanistan to start their own businesses. She has been working out of Kabul for nearly two decades.
Counsel for Mr Roberts-Smith, Arthur Moses, asked the Person 5 on Tuesday why he had decided to leave the Australian Defence Force.
"It was a comment by someone on a VTC (video teleconference) when I was on a hostage rescue in Jalalabad," Person 5 replied.
"What was the comment?"
"That the person we were going to rescue was half Australian, half British. When we were trying to push forward to get more assets and get the troop in to go after the hostage, the comment was made: she's not a real Australian anyway."
Major-General Sengelman has been credited in some quarters with initiating the inquiries into alleged war crimes in Afghanistan, after hearing rumours from soldiers. He commissioned sociologist Dr Samantha Crompvoets to undertake more research into what he was hearing which in part led to the Brereton Inquiry.
That inquiry found credible evidence of up to 39 murders, with 19 current or former soldiers, almost exclusively from the SAS, to face criminal investigation.

Scott Morrison backs war call as Malcolm Turnbull lashes out
COURTNEY GOULD - APRIL 26, 2022
An extraordinary claim Australia should be prepared for war has been backed by Scott Morrison.
Defence Minister Peter Dutton marked Anzac Day by again comparing China and Russia to Nazi Germany before World War II.
"The only way you can preserve peace is to prepare for war and to be strong as a country," Mr Dutton said.
"Not to cower or be on bended knee or be weak. That's the reality."
"What Peter was saying yesterday, I think, was important. Of course no one wants to see a war and no one believes that is about to happen," Mr Morrison told 2GB on Tuesday.
"I want to reassure Australians about that. We prepare for these things to ensure stability and peace within our region."
When pressed, Mr Morrison linked Australia's preparedness for war with the government's defence spend.
On Sunday, Mr Morrison declared he had drawn a "red line" in the Pacific amid concerns China could establish a base in Solomon Islands as part of a controversial security pact.
When asked how Australia would defend itself, Mr Morrison pointed to the AUKUS alliance with the US and UK.
But Mr Morrison's predecessor Malcolm Turnbull didn't hold back in his assessment of the government's dialled up rhetoric.
"Peter Dutton's rhetoric is becoming more and more bombastic and belligerent," he told ABC's RN.
"It's just a pity that he doesn't match it with actual preparation and work.
"It's as though he wants to have a sensation - he thinks the object to him being the defence minister is having a sensational headline in a tabloid newspaper."
Mr Turnbull, who was ousted by the Coalition in 2018, invoked Mr Morrison's now infamous response to the black summer bushfire crisis in his criticism of the government's handling of the issue.
"I mean, the Pacific is not our backyard - it's where we live, it's our neighbourhood," Mr Turnbull said.
"And so you have to use engagement, you have to use diplomacy, you have to be persuasive, you have to go and visit these countries, get to know these leaders, spend time with them.
"This is a hose you have to hold, to put it bluntly."
Labor leader Anthony Albanese agreed, telling Perth's 6PR radio the government's chest beating meant nothing if Australia continued to ignore the Pacific on climate change.
"I think Malcolm Turnbull put it pretty well this morning," he said.
"The truth is what's happened in the Solomons is an absolute failure of foreign policy and that's been recognised by Julie Bishop, by Malcolm Turnbull, and by other commentators and experts."

Morrison defends Payne's absence from Solomons as 'strategic decision'
Eryk Bagshaw - April 20, 2022
Foreign Minister Marise Payne was at a private business dinner in Sydney on the night Pacific Minister Zed Seselja was sent to the Solomon Islands in a failed attempt to stop a landmark security deal with Beijing from being signed.
Prime Minister Scott Morrison said it was a strategic decision to dispatch the junior minister to the Pacific Island nation despite a draft agreement revealing plans that could give the Chinese navy access to a base less than 2000 kilometres off the Australian coast.
"The judgement was made not to engage at a Foreign Minister level … to ensure that Australia's views were communicated very clearly and very respectfully," Morrison said on Wednesday.
"One of the things you have got to be very, very cognisant of is there is a long history of, frankly, countries like Australia and even New Zealand and others coming around and treating Pacific Islands like they should be doing what the big countries should tell them to do."
The deal puts national and regional security at the centre of the Australian federal election campaign. Labor leader Anthony Albanese on Wednesday said it was "one of the greatest policy failures that we've seen from this government". Payne said she was "deeply disappointed" the deal had been signed.
The Sydney Morning Herald and The Age have confirmed that Payne was at a private business dinner at PwC Barangaroo on April 12, the night Seselja flew to Honiara. The dinner was not a fundraiser but was attended by business people who donate to the Liberal Party. Payne had earlier that day spoken with US lawmakers Bob Menendez and Lindsey Graham as part of a lobbying push to get the US to take a stronger stance against the Solomons deal.
On Tuesday night, when China's Foreign Ministry announced the deal had been signed, Payne was attending a Liberal Women's networking forum in South Australia after earlier campaigning in Boothby. During an election campaign, senior ministers have to manage fundraising, campaigning and governing while the government remains in caretaker mode. The Morrison government says it has had more than 100 exchanges with Solomons ministers and Pacific Islands' forum members since the draft agreement was leaked in March, but that lobbying failed to sway the Solomons government.
Albanese said on Wednesday that he would go to Honiara if elected to meet defiant Prime Minister Manasseh Sogavare to relay Australia's concerns. Former foreign minister Julie Bishop said on Wednesday that Payne should be on her way to Honiara. "I believe our foreign minister should be on the next plane to Solomon Islands," she told Channel 10.
The agreement will give Beijing its first major security stake in the Pacific and give it the power to protect its investments in the region.
Deputy Prime Minister Barnaby Joyce said the "pact with China was dual purpose, which means that China is able - if they follow this through - to set up a military base there".
"That is a very bad day for Australia," he said. "We don't want our own little Cuba off our coast."
'Our eyes wide open'
Sogavare told parliament in Honiara on Wednesday the deal had been signed to protect critical national infrastructure in the poor and divided country. Chinese armed forces will now be allowed to protect Chinese investments by force if necessary. The deal is the first one of its kind for billions of dollars worth of Chinese investment abroad.
"We entered into an arrangement with China with our eyes wide open guided by our national interest," Sogavare told parliament.
Sogavare said he would dispatch foreign minister Jeremiah Manele to countries in the region to allay their fears about a Chinese naval base in the Pacific.
The Australian government, which was initially blindsided by the details of the draft agreement, said it had made its concerns clear.
"Our consistently stated view, including from the perspective of Australia's national interests, remains that the Pacific family is best placed to meet the security needs of the region," Payne and Seselja said in a joint statement.
Labor attacks 'blunder'
Albanese used his morning's campaign press conference in Brisbane to condemn what he described as Australian government inaction.
"This deal between China and the Solomons was foreshadowed last August, the government was warned. Yet, only in recent days did the government bother to send a junior person across to the Solomons," he said.
Albanese confirmed he would visit the Solomons if elected. Morrison's first trip abroad as Prime Minister was to Honiara in 2019. "The problem is those relationships aren't ones that can be done just during when there's a crisis," he said.

Joe Biden acclaims 'essential' ANZUS
BEN PACKHAM - MARCH 29, 2022
Scott Morrison has marked the 70th anniversary of the ANZUS Alliance by announcing a cyber and critical technology centre to be established within the nation's peak intelligence ?assessment agency to deploy cutting-edge technologies to protect Australia's security.
The Prime Minister announced the new centre at a dinner to mark the milestone for the alliance - a pact US President Joe Biden declared on Monday was "essential to our shared safety and prosperity".
Mr Biden's "Asia tsar" Kurt Campbell relayed the President's words to guests including leading figures in politics, business and defence at the Parliament House dinner, saying the Australia-US alliance was not only a historical document but essential to strengthening Indo-Pacific security into the ?future.
Mr Morrison said Australia and the US's shared intelligence commitments were a major pillar of the alliance, and with "changing geopolitical realities", Australia was "stepping up to do more".
The new Cyber and Critical Technology Intelligence Centre will be located within the Office of National Intelligence to harness rapidly evolving technology and meet the security challenges that technology presents.
"This multi-agency centre will ensure Australia, working with our allies, can better anticipate and capitalise on emerging technologies," Mr Morrison told guests at the dinner, hosted by the American Australian Association, the United States Studies Centre and the Perth USAsia Centre.
He said the centre would work across the intelligence community and with non-?government R&D partners "to fund, shape and deploy cutting-edge science, research and technology to deliver better capa?bilities into the future".
"Beyond defence and intelligence, today Australia and the US work together on a wide and expanding canvass - cyber ?security, space, supply chain resilience, critical minerals, quantum computing, low emissions technologies and more," Mr Morrison said.
In his message, Mr Biden commended Australia's "strong response" to Russia's invasion of Ukraine and "the strength of your voice in upholding the values that guide us as ?democracies".
"Seventy years ago, our countries came together at the Presidio in San Francisco and established an enduring partnership - as stated in the ANZUS Treaty - to strengthen the fabric of peace in the Indo-Pacific region," the White House Indo-Pacific co-ordinator said, reading the letter from Mr Biden.
"Today, the ANZUS partnership is essential to our shared safety and prosperity."
Mr Morrison said the alliance was one of "trust, commitment and sacrifice" that "continues to be renewed for our times".
"We come to this partnership as equals. We come to this partnership bringing everything we have, and to share it ... standing equal," he said.
Guests at the dinner included Labor leader Anthony Albanese, US charge d'affaires Mike Goldman, Foreign Minister Marise Payne, her Labor counterpart Penny Wong, former prime minister John Howard, former foreign minister Julie Bishop and former US ambassador Joe Hockey.
ONI director-general Andrew Shearer, ASIO director-general Mike Burgess and Australian Secret Intelligence Service director-general Paul Symon were also among the guests, along with ?Defence Secretary Greg Moriarty, Foreign Affairs secretary Kathryn Campbell and Home Affairs secretary Mike Pezzullo.
News Corp co-chairman Lachlan Murdoch and chief executive Robert Thomson attended, along with Herald and Weekly Times chair Penny Fow?ler, Pratt Foundation chair ?Heloise Pratt, and Boeing Australia president Brendan Nelson, a former defence minister and Liberal leader.
The Australian's editor-in-chief Christopher Dore said Sir Keith Murdoch, who established the Australian American Association in 1948, saw clearly "the shift in Australia's interests from our sentimental and emotional attachment to Britain to our practical and actual relationship with the US". He said Sir Keith would be "extremely proud" the alliance continued to thrive.

The revelation that Mr Morrison declined the meeting comes as Australia and New Zealand signalled they will push to stop a security agreement between China and the Solomon Islands from being signed.
There is deep concern in Canberra, Wellington and Washington about the implications of a potential base for Chinese naval vessels right on Australia's doorstep that will be able to cut off key supply lines into Asia and the Pacific in the event of a conflict.
On Friday Mr Morrison urged the Solomon Islands to remember Australia's work in the Pacific, and New Zealand Foreign Minister Nanaia Mahuta warned the arrangement could "destabilise the current institutions and arrangements that have long underpinned the Pacific region's security".
"This would not benefit New Zealand or our Pacific neighbours," she said.
NZ High Commissioner Georgina Roberts directly raised Wellington's concerns with Honiara on Friday. The Ardern government is also attempting to establish contact with Beijing over the draft agreement revealed on Thursday.
Since being appointed Ambassador and arriving in January, Mr Xiao has met with former Australian prime ministers Paul Keating and John Howard and reportedly exchanged views on the development of China-Australia relations. He also met Labor foreign affairs spokeswoman Penny Wong and former foreign minister Julie Bishop.
The Ambassador has struck a conciliatory tone in public comments since arriving in Australia in January but the essential impasse between the nations - China's government demanding Australia make concessions in 14 areas of its sovereignty - has not changed.
According to a readout provided to The Sydney Morning Herald and The Age, Senator Payne "set out frankly Australia's positions on a range of issues, including the importance of appropriate ministerial and other high-level dialogue and engagement, stability in the Indo-Pacific, free and open trade, human rights and the welfare of Australians detained in China" during her meeting with the Ambassador.
Senator Payne said "Australia remains committed to a constructive relationship with China in which we can pursue areas of co-operation" but this was conditional on "remaining consistent with our own national sovereign interests and focused on stability".
The relationship between China and Australia has been strained by Canberra's call for an independent inquiry into the origins of the coronavirus, as well as by the so-called Pacific step up, which is designed to increase Australia's diplomatic focus and the amount of aid that flows to the Pacific states.
China responded by imposing trade boycotts on more than $20 billion of Australian goods.
In his meetings with the former prime ministers Keating and Howard, Mr Xiao made clear the Chinese government was "willing to work with the Australian side to review the past, face the future, uphold the principles of mutual respect, equality and mutual benefit, and jointly promote the development of China-Australia relations along the right track".
The Chinese embassy in Canberra was contacted for comment.

Beijing threatens Australia with 'the worst consequences'
WILL GLASGOW - MARCH 12, 2022
China's Defence Ministry said Australia will "suffer the worst consequences" if it offers military support to Taiwan in a tirade launched the day after Xi Jinping's top envoy in Australia told Foreign Minister Marise Payne he wanted to push relations "along the right track".
In a remarkable instance of two-pronged diplomacy, Beijing's outburst was delivered at the end of a week in which China's new ambassador Xiao Qian spoke of "mutual respect" in separate meetings in Sydney with former prime ministers Paul Keating and John Howard, Foreign Minister Payne and former foreign minister Bob Carr.
The fresh lashing was given late on Thursday four days after Defence Minister Peter Dutton said Australia would do "whatever we can" to deter China from "acts of aggression" in the Taiwan Strait.
Denouncing Mr Dutton's "Cold War mentality" and "ideological bias", a spokesman for China's powerful Ministry of National Defence said "no one and no force" could stop Beijing from bringing Taiwan under its control.
"Anyone who makes trouble on the Taiwan question will suffer the worst consequences in the end," said Senior Colonel Tan Kefei days after Beijing raised defence spending by more than 7 per cent.
"The Chinese People's Liberation Army is always in full readiness to thwart resolutely any interference from external forces and any 'Taiwan independence' plot by separatist forces," Colonel Tan said.
In a second attack, the Chinese spokesman said - without evidence - that Canberra had lied about a Chinese warship's use of a laser last month off Australia's north coast.
The Taiwan tirade came days after Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi cast Australia as an "acolyte" in a "sinister" American-led plot to constrain China's rise.
China's top diplomat dubbed the strategy Washington's "5432 posture", listing the pillars of Australia's security framework: the Five Eyes intelligence group, the four member Quad, the three member AUKUS security partnership and America's bilateral engagement with allies, such as AUSMIN with Australia.
At the high-profile event at Beijing's annual rubber stamp parliament, the National People's Congress, Mr Wang said that China's relations with Russia remained "rock solid" despite its invasion of Ukraine.
The day earlier, President Xi Jinping instructed a group of political advisers to note the "chaos in the West".
During a separate session at the National People's Congress, Defence Minister Wei Fenghe, said the People's Liberation Army faced "high pressure" and "high risks".
"Against the backdrop of the decline of the West and the rise of the East, confrontation between major powers is unprecedented and we need to focus on responding to containment and suppression from the outside," General Wei said.
Back in Australia, Mr Xi's new envoy has been attempting a charm offensive with Chinese characteristics.
Before this week's meetings with Mr Keating, Mr Howard, Senator Payne, Mr Carr and the head of the Australia-China Relations Institute James Laurenceson, Mr Xiao met separately with Fortescue billionaire Andrew Forrest, former foreign minister Julie Bishop, Howard government minister Warwick Smith and the president of the Australia China Business Council David Olsson.
He has also requested a meeting with Labor's foreign affairs spokeswoman Penny Wong.
In those private meetings, the new Chinese envoy attempted a conciliatory tone - in contrast to the anger in Beijing.
"It is hoped that the two sides will work together to review the past and look into the future," Mr Xiao told his influential interlocutors.
"[We should] adhere to the principle of mutual respect, equality and mutual benefit, and make joint efforts to push forward China-Australia relations along the right track," he said, according to the Chinese embassy.

China accuses Australia of 'sinister' plot
WILL GLASGOW - MARCH 8, 2022
1/2
Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi has cast Australia as the US's most loyal accomplice in a ?"sinister" strategy to constrain the rising power with an "Indo-Pacific version of NATO".
Without naming Australia ?directly, Mr Wang outlined ?Canberra's role as an "acolyte" in what he dubbed Washington's "5432 posture".
"(The US) talks about multi?lateralism but in reality it creates exclusive clubs," Mr Wang said on Monday night on the sidelines of the National People's Congress, China's rubberstamp parliament.
"It claims international rules but in reality it is setting and ?imposing rules suiting itself and its acolytes. From strengthening the Five Eyes and peddling the Quad to putting together the AUKUS security partnership and tightening bilateral military alliances, the US is staging a '5432' posture in the Asia-Pacific.
"It is by no means a blessing but a sinister move. The real goal for the Indo-Pacific strategy is to ?establish an Indo-Pacific version of NATO ... These perverse ?actions run counter to common aspirations of the region and are doomed to fail."
Mr Wang's prepared remarks on the US's Indo-Pacific strategy underline the breadth of the ?security issues that have sunk the Australia-China relationship to a 50-year low.
Australia is the only country, other than the US, to be in every one of the groups the Chinese ?Foreign Minister said were "stoking regional rivalry". Membership in all of them has bipartisan support in Canberra.
Rory Medcalf, head of the ?National Security College at the Australian National University, said the comments revealed "a certain frustration in the Chinese system".
"If the last five years have proven anything, it's that it is going to be futile to try to break Australia away from the US-led alliance system," Professor Medcalf told The Australian.
"We're more firmly and bipartisanly embedded in that than we've ever been."
The strident comments from Beijing underline the limitations on China's new ambassador in Canberra, Xiao Qian, who has said he wants to improve the ?fractious bilateral relationship.
On arrival in Australia in late January, Chinese President Xi Jinping's top envoy in Australia said he wanted the two countries to "look into the future" and "meet each other halfway".
Over the past fortnight, Mr Xiao has met separately in ?Canberra with iron ore billionaire Andrew Forrest, former foreign minister Julie Bishop (in her role as chancellor of the Australian National University), the Business Council of Australia's China head Warwick Smith and Australia China Business Council president David Olsson.
The Australian has been told Mr Xiao was "highly professional" in those meetings. His diplomatic efforts, however, were offset by a People's Liberation Navy vessel that shot a laser at an Australian plane and China's tacit support for Russian President Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine.

Who is Chau Chak Wing? The alleged 'puppeteer' behind foreign interference plot
Anthony Galloway - February 15, 2022
1/2
There are few political donors better connected or more controversial than Chinese-Australian businessman Chau Chak Wing.
Mr Chau has often made headlines for his generous donations but serious accusations have been made against him a number of times in Federal Parliament, most recently on Monday when Labor senator Kimberley Kitching claimed he was the "puppeteer" behind a foreign interference plot.
He responded on Tuesday, labelling the claim "baseless" and inviting Senator Kitching to repeat her comments outside Parliament.
"I am shocked and disappointed at the baseless and reckless claim made by Senator Kimberley Kitching during a Senate Estimates hearing on Monday," he said.
"It is always unfortunate when elected representatives use the shield of parliamentary privilege as a platform to vilify and attack Australian citizens without producing a shred of evidence.
"I am a businessman and philanthropist. I have never had any involvement or interest in interfering with the democratic election process in Australia."
In 2019 Nine, owner of this masthead, was ordered to pay Mr Chau $225,000 in damages after a Federal Court judge found he was defamed in an article on The Sydney Morning Herald's website that went online in October 2015. Last year, Nine and the ABC were ordered to pay Mr Chau $590,000 in damages for a joint investigation with Four Corners that aired in June 2017. The subsequent reimbursement of Mr Chau's legal expenses, plus paying their own expenses to defend the cases, cost the media outlets millions of dollars.
The outlets were found to have erred in suggesting Mr Chau paid "bribes" in the form of political donations and for imputations that he carried out the work of the Chinese Communist Party's secret lobbying arm, the United Front Work Department. The media outlets' defences that their reporting was in the public interest were rejected by the courts.
Since then, barely a word has been written about Mr Chau. Until this week.
Senator Kitching's accusation in a Senate estimates hearing relates to foreign interference whereby the "puppeteer" hired an employee to begin identifying and bankrolling candidates likely to run for Labor in the federal election.
The head of Australia's counter-espionage agency ASIO, Mike Burgess, told the same hearing that ASIO stepped in to foil the plot and that no current Labor candidates were of any concern to his agency. He said it was critical that Australia did not let the fear of foreign interference undermine stakeholder engagement or stoke community division, as that would have the "same corrosive impact on our democracy as foreign interference itself".
Mr Chau has long been a well-connected businessman with ties to both major parties. He has donated more than $4 million to Australia's major political parties since 2004 - although it is believed they have stopped taking money from him. He has also donated more than $45 million to Australian universities, making him one of the biggest donors in Australian history.
Politicians who have previously met Mr Chau include former prime ministers John Howard, Kevin Rudd, Tony Abbott and Julia Gillard, as well as former foreign affairs ministers Julie Bishop and Bob Carr.
But there is a now wide gap between what Australian politicians are prepared to say about Mr Chau within the Federal Parliament and outside its walls.
Speaking at the opening of the Chau Chak Wing Museum on November 16, 2020, Labor leader Anthony Albanese said the institution at the University of Sydney had risen "thanks to the generosity of the man whose name that it bears", as well as three other philanthropists.
"Four great philanthropists. We should not take that for granted - their generosity," Mr Albanese said at the event, which Mr Carr and former Liberal leader Brendan Nelson also attended, but not Mr Chau.
The Sydney Morning Herald and The Age has seen an invitation to Prime Minister Scott Morrison to attend the same event, which was declined by his office.
Defence Minister Peter Dutton appeared to be pointing this out in Parliament on Tuesday, when he said "we don't hang out in a museum with Bob Carr … and other murky figures".
Asked why he attended the event, a spokesperson for Mr Albanese said: "As an alumnus, Mr Albanese regularly attends events at Sydney University."

Anthony Albanese attended Chau Chak Wing event after ASIO warning
Anthony Albanese gave effusive praise for Chinese billionaire Dr Chau Chak Wing just weeks after ASIO warnings over foreign influence risks.
Samantha Maiden - February 16, 2022
Labor leader Anthony Albanese offered effusive praise for the Chinese billionaire Dr Chau Chak Wing at a dinner in Sydney in 2020 just weeks after ASIO warnings over foreign influence risks.
Dr Chau, who previously hit the headlines for spending $70 million on James Packer's mega mansion, is the Chinese businessman named in Parliament this week as the "puppet master" ASIO was referring to in a major speech.
The businessman has slammed the claims as "reckless" and "baseless" and ASIO has refused to confirm or deny the allegations made under parliamentary privilege.
Despite previous warnings by ASIO to both the major parties about taking money from two Chinese donors including Dr Chau Chak Wing and the risk of foreign influence operations, Mr Albanese attended an event in his honour in November, 2020.
Government sources, that are trying to elevate the issue of China's influence in the Labor Party ahead of the election, briefed journalists last night that the Prime Minister had declined the invitation on the basis of national security advice.
But Mr Albanese paid tribute to the billionaire's generosity in his speech, offering effusive praise for the businessman who has donated an estimated $40 million to Australian universities.
"The Chau Chak Wing Museum has risen thanks to the generosity of the man whose name that it bears, but also along with the Ian Potter Foundation, the Nelson Meers Foundation and Penelope Seidler AM,'' he said.
"Four great philanthropists. We should not take that for granted for their generosity."
Dr Chau was not in attendance and remained in China as a result of border closures. He does not read or speak English but has been a generous donor to both the major political parties and the universities.
Mr Albanese said Dr Chau's museum was more than just a good news story.
"It is a reminder and a reassurance that beyond coronavirus, a brighter future is within our reach, if we dare to dream it,'' he said.
"It will open minds and it will connect people a bit more powerfully to their place in our human race. It is an honour to be here"
Mr Albanese's speech was delivered just a month after ASIO boss Mike Burgess told Senate estimates in October, 2020 that he would write to all federal MPs warning they were potential targets for foreign spies looking to steal Australia's secrets and gain a foothold in the nation.
"We see evidence of intelligence services deceptively cultivating politicians at all levels of government who will advance the interests of the foreign countries,'' Mr Burgess said.
Victorian Labor senator Kimberley Kitching used parliamentary privilege on Monday night to ask Mike Burgess, the head of Australia's spy agency ASIO, whether the property developer was the mystery man involved in the alleged plot.
Dr Chau has slammed the allegations as baseless.
"I am shocked and disappointed at the baseless and reckless claim made by Senator Kimberley Kitching during a Senate Estimates hearing on Monday," he said in a statement.
"It is always unfortunate when elected representatives use the shield of parliamentary privilege as a platform to vilify and attack Australian citizens without producing a shred of evidence.
"I am a businessman and philanthropist. I have never had any involvement or interest in interfering with the democratic election process in Australia.
"In 2017, the ABC and Nine journalist Nick McKenzie made a similar allegation in a Four Corners report. The Federal Court subsequently awarded me very substantial damages which I donated to charity."
Dr Chau has previously been awarded $590,000 after a judge found he was defamed by an ABC program that portrayed him as a Communist Party member.
His lawyers argued the program carried six false and defamatory imputations including that he "betrayed" his country through espionage, is a member of China's Communist Party and made enormous donations to influence politicians.
By naming Dr Chau under parliamentary privilege on Monday night, Labor Senator Kimberley Kitching cannot be sued for defamation.
The well-connected Dr Chau has always had powerful friends in high places and over the years has been photographed with former Prime Minister John Howard, NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian, Australian war memorial director Brendan Nelson and former foreign minister Julie Bishop.

In the podcast interview, Dearlove asked Bishop whether it would be possible to "square this circle" in the long term.
Dearlove cited not only the Pine Gap installation but also Australia's strategic alliance with the US, the rotation of US marines through Darwin, and the Aukus deal for the US and the UK to help Australia acquire at least eight nuclear-powered submarines.
"And all of this is, you could argue, [is] very provocative to the Chinese," Dearlove said. "And at the same time, your economy or aspects of your economy, are absolutely totally tied to the Chinese market."
Bishop agreed that it was "a balancing act" and called for Australia and China to "reestablish a more constructive dialogue".
"It will be interesting to see how Xi Jinping is able to maintain this grip on power," she said.
"I've not yet seen evidence that he's losing it, but China's future is facing many hurdles, many challenges. Its inexorable rise is not inevitable. I think there are many bridges to cross before China could be seen as a superpower in the nature of the United States."
Bishop, who was foreign minister from 2013 to 2018, said Australia and other countries in the region were "looking for more US leadership, not less". She contended that very few countries "would want to live in a region where the Chinese government was calling the shots".
Dearlove called on the west to "develop a new security regime which copes with China's presence as a superpower".
But while saying he found China's insistence on rewriting global rules as "rather alarming", Dearlove also made an emphatic plea for Australia and other western countries to continue to seek dialogue with Beijing.
"I do firmly believe in talking, not just to one's competitors, but to one's enemies as well, and engaging in dialogue, and having some sort of bilateral infrastructure which allows for the treatment and discussion of problems on an almost constant basis," he said.
The One Decision podcast, which is co-hosted by Dearlove and the journalist Julia Macfarlane, was recorded in December but released on Thursday. It is produced by the US-based communications firm Global Situation Room.

Australia's Pine Gap 'hugely important' to western monitoring of China, says former British spy chief
Richard Dearlove discusses facility's role in monitoring China's 'rather alarming' activities
Daniel Hurst - 10 Feb 2022
1/2
The former British spy chief Sir Richard Dearlove has described the Pine Gap surveillance base in central Australia as "hugely important" to western intelligence collection about China's "rather alarming" activities.
Intelligence officials are usually tight-lipped on exactly what the joint US-Australian facility is used for, but the former head of MI6 said Pine Gap was "a sophisticated listening post, all right, and a lot else besides".
"You've got the massive installation, which is partly NSA [US National Security Agency], at Pine Gap and that's really important because, well, it's an intercept intelligence site," Dearlove said on the global affairs podcast One Decision.
"And it's hugely important strategically to the US and to the western alliance because of its position, its geographical location."
He explicitly confirmed the western interest in Beijing's activities, saying Pine Gap - the installation near Alice Springs in the Northern Territory - was "crucial to, let's say, western coverage of China".
"I don't think I should go into detail about what it actually does, that would be indiscreet," Dearlove added. More broadly, he said, Australia had "a very sophisticated intercept capability".
The former head of the British Secret Intelligence Service made the comments during a podcast conversation with the former Australian foreign affairs minister Julie Bishop, who said Australia's relationship with China currently was "tense".
Australia is a member of the Five Eyes intelligence sharing alliance, which also includes the US, the UK, Canada and New Zealand.
The presence of the Pine Gap facility in Australia has from time to time attracted controversy. A trove of NSA documents leaked by Edward Snowden indicated the site "plays a significant role in supporting both intelligence activities and military operations".
The ABC reported in 2017 that the facility - officially known as Joint Defence Facility Pine Gap - provided detailed geolocation intelligence to the US military. That prompted some legal observers to question the site's potential role in supporting deadly US drone strikes in the Middle East.
Bishop said China had been "much more assertive" and "indeed aggressive in some instances" since Xi Jinping became president.
Some of China's wolf warrior diplomacy had been "startling", Bishop contended, and Beijing had "sought to make an example of us" since 2020 by introducing steep tariffs or trade actions against Australian export sectors such as wine, beef and barley.
Bishop said Australia was in the "rather unusual situation that our major trading partner, China, is in serious competition with our major strategic defence and intelligence ally, the United States".

RAMSI was a huge success and my only regret was the decision by the Turnbull government to withdraw RAMSI altogether in 2017. At the time, I thought it was a mistake not to leave just a small, token presence in the country. If we had done that, it's possible the latest riots and intervention would never have occurred. Still, we don't know.
What is clear is that the latest riots were connected to the decision by the Solomon Islands government in 2019 to switch diplomatic recognition from Taiwan to the People's Republic of China.
Over the years I had pleaded on many an occasion with the government in Beijing - with which I had constant contact - and also indirectly with the government in Taipei, to desist from making payments and inducements to Pacific island politicians and bureaucrats as a reward for diplomatic recognition.
After I ceased to be the foreign minister, I visited Taipei and met with the then president of Taiwan. I told him of the damage the investments and bribes paid by the previous Taiwan government had done to our attempts to try to achieve stability and prosperity in the Pacific. He was interested and sympathetic and promised to ensure Taiwan behaved responsibly. As foreign minister, I received precisely the same promises from Beijing.
Looking at the latest riots in the Solomon Islands, it is clear the country is still living with the legacy of that China-Taiwan competition.
By all accounts, Taiwan has remained close to the Malaitans despite the change of recognition in 2019 to Beijing by the Solomon Islands government. It seems the two sides of the China argument have been exploiting the tensions inherent in the Solomon Islands between the Malaitans and the people of Guadalcanal.
So, there we have it. Competition between Beijing and Taipei has been destabilising our region.
These tensions in the Pacific simply underline why the Pacific islands countries should be a key focus for Australian foreign policy.
The recent announcement by the Morrison government of its step-up in the Pacific is welcome, but I'm sorry it was necessary.
While Julie Bishop as foreign minister showed great interest and energy in the Pacific, the decision to withdraw the RAMSI mission in 2017 gave an impression of strategic retreat by Australia.
It may not have been the intention - and I'm sure it wasn't - but my guess is in Beijing and Taipei they interpreted the decision as a sign Australia was de-prioritising the region.
Morrison, by the latest intervention, has shown that assumption to be wrong. It may be worth keeping at least an Australian police presence in Honiara for quite a while.
Alexander Downer was Australia's longest serving foreign minister, from 1996 to 2007, and most recently Australian High Commissioner to the UK.

OPINION: Morrison is making an enemy of China - and Labor is helping him
Paul Keating, Former prime minister of Australia - September 22, 2021
1/2
The Liberals, having no faith in the capacity of Australians and all we have created here, could not resist falling back, yet again, to do the bidding of another great power, the United States of America.
Menzies, even after World War II, did Britain's bidding against the international community in attempting to wrest the Suez Canal from Egypt just as he deceptively committed Australian troops to Vietnam to appease the United States.
Howard, another US appeaser extraordinaire, committed us to an illegal war in Iraq with tragic consequences.
And now, Morrison, a younger throwback to the Liberals' Anglosphere, shops Australia's sovereignty by locking the country and its military forces into the force structure of the United States by acquiring US submarines.
And all in the claim of a so-called "changed security environment". That change is China's more aggressive international posture - the posture of now, the world's largest emerging economy. This change in China's domestic and foreign posture is labelled by Morrison and his government not as the shifting posture of a re-emerging great power, but as "the China threat". As though China, through its more abrupt and ruder foreign policy, has also presented a military threat in its dealings with Australia.
A threat that, in fact, has never been made and that has never materialised.
The word "threat" explicitly connotes military aggression or invasion, a threat China has never made against Australia or even implied making.
Chinese tariffs on wine or seafood do not constitute a military threat any more than does China's intolerance of Hong Kong domestic political management.
Hong Kong and its affairs do not and cannot be represented as some military threat to Australia - an event that requires from us consideration of a military response. Even Chinese island-pumping in the South China Sea does not represent a military threat to Australia, unwise on China's part, as I believe it to be.
But this is the construction Scott Morrison and his government have placed on China and its relationship with Australia.
It is a "threat", implying by use of the word, that it is a military one.
This false representation of China's foreign policy has also been condoned by the Labor Party, if not explicitly. In her five years as Labor's opposition foreign affairs spokeswoman, Penny Wong, by her muted complicity with the government's foreign policy and posture, has neutered Labor's traditional stance as to Australia's right to strategic autonomy - an autonomy unconstrained by any power, including, that of the United States.
Instead, Wong went along with the stance of Julie Bishop and Marise Payne - calculatedly, with not a cigarette paper of difference between her and them. And did it with licence provided by Bill Shorten as leader and, now, Anthony Albanese.
Now that long policy void is being exploited by Scott Morrison. At Morrison's instigation, Australia turns its back on the 21st century, the century of Asia, for the jaded and faded Anglosphere - the domain of the Atlantic - a world away.

Julie Bishop encountered the new era on her first visit to Beijing as Australia's foreign minister in December 2013. Her meeting with China's Foreign Minister Wang Yi was one of the first examples of what was later dubbed "wolf warrior" diplomacy - named after a 2017 jingoistic action film that was the Chinese movie industry's answer to Rambo.
In front of a media pack, the normally smooth-talking Wang - dubbed the Chinese equivalent of a "silver fox" by state media - erupted over comments Bishop had made before the trip.
Australia's foreign minister had made a mild criticism of Beijing's declaration of an air defence identification zone in the disputed East China Sea.
"It felt like an ambush," Bishop tells Inquirer. "We certainly had no briefing or warning that it was coming."
With hindsight, it was a seminal moment in China's new approach to Australia. And it took place years before Canberra's banning of Huawei from its 5G network, the passage of legislation aimed at China's brazen interference in Australia's political system, or the Morrison government's call for an inquiry into Covid-19.
Reliving Wang's public tirade before a Senate estimates hearing two months later, senior Australian foreign affairs official Peter Rowe said he had "never in 30 years encountered such rudeness".
The profound shift in China's dealings with the world was little understood by the Australian government. This included Australia's then ambassador in Beijing, Frances Adamson, who is soon to leave her role as head of the Department of Foreign Affairs.
The Mandarin-speaking Adamson's bafflement was summed up in a note she passed Bishop as she waited for Wang's lecture to be translated. It read: "This is going terribly badly."
As Martin reveals in his book, the episode derived from the fear Xi had instilled in China's foreign ministry. They had a reputation in China for being soft - in need of calcium pills to toughen up their spines. Communist Party general secretary Xi wanted that ailment fixed. He demanded a foreign ministry with "fighting spirit".
"Wang's solution was to double down on the founding values of the ministry," writes Martin.
"After all, it had been set up to help a closed and paranoid political system cope with a more open outside world. Many of these founding principles were perfectly suited to the emerging mood in Beijing."
Wang had made as much clear four months before dressing down Bishop. In a speech given in August 2013, Wang said China's diplomats needed to embrace the guiding principles of Mao's suave premier and wily foreign affairs adviser Zhou Enlai.
"(Zhou) famously said that diplomats are the People's Liberation Army in civilian clothing," Wang told his department of soon-to-be wolf warriors. "A civilian army not only needs to maintain strict discipline and obedience to commands, but also needs to cultivate a strong character and work style ... to serve the people like the PLA."
They haven't stopped fighting since.
Some are worried that Xi has taken it too far
Eight years on, with the wolf warrior volume turned up to 11, there is grumbling in Beijing about China's anti-diplomatic diplomacy. Some voices have even suggested that China may have clubbed Australia a bit too hard.
Last December, Chinese foreign ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian caused a diplomatic storm by tweeting a provocative artwork of an Australian soldier murdering an Afghan child.
The popular nationalist blogger Ren Yi - who writes under the pen name "Chairman Rabbit" - told his more than two million fans on Chinese social media that Zhao's approach was not helping China. Ren even suggested the pugnacious Zhao had been unknowingly "Trumpised", a cutting insult in Xi's China.
"This is very dangerous," wrote the Beijing-based, Harvard University-educated princeling.
While he agreed uppity Australia was a deserving target for a few "pokes", he argued worsening China-Australia relations would hurt China. It would make the new Biden administration tougher on China.
"Regarding this dispute between China and Australia, the author believes that China should cool down now. After all, Biden's primary goal is to repair the relationship with allies, not to repair the relationship with China."

In the past, Tim Stewart has claimed to have influence with Morrison. In 2018, during a formal apology to victims of institutional abuse, Morrison used the phrase "ritual sexual abuse", which was not terminology used by the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse. Stewart, tweeting under the handle @BurnedSpy34, was elated. He told his tens of thousands of followers he had influenced Morrison to use the phrase, and before the speech took place, he texted a colleague, exclaiming, "I think Scott is going to do it!!" The Prime Minister's Office said the phrase came instead from survivors but did not comment on QAnon.
Stewart has also suggested former Foreign minister Julie Bishop was connected to the child abusing "cabal" because she wore red shoes. "If you want to do your research into the US context, the red shoes are purported to be very much a paedophilia shout out," he told The Guardian. The outlet added: "There is no evidence that Bishop is connected to any such conspiracy." Stewart's freelance theorising has also ensnared Alexander Downer during his time as British high commissioner, Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews and other prominent Australians.
A benign view is that Stewart has no influence over Morrison, that their relationship has no real political component, and that he is not the only person close to the corridors of power with eccentric views. One Nation's policy platform, for example, borrows from the Agenda 21 conspiracy theory, which contends a 23-year-old United Nations resolution is actually a plan to entrench eco-totalitarianism. Decades of polling in many countries have found surprising support for all kinds of outlandish propositions, so much so that political commentators sometimes refer to the "crazification factor", the purported 26 per cent of the population who might support anything.
What distinguishes QAnon is its ambition, and its reach. Two Republican members of the most recent freshmen class of the US congress - Marjorie Taylor Greene and Lauren Boebert - were both avowed QAnon adherents who only distanced themselves from the movement after taking office. Trump broadcast QAnon-linked accounts on dozens of occasions, and in his dying days in office he was surrounded by increasingly Q-adjacent figures. His former national security adviser, Michael Flynn, addressed a QAnon conference in Dallas and appeared to endorse a coup, similar in nature to the coup that had taken place in Myanmar.
Some studies of QAnon supporters are sympathetic. Supporters are very likely to suffer from mental illness - one paper found that up to 68 per cent had received a formal diagnosis. Their rage is said to be justified but misplaced. There is a child abuse crisis. Powerful forces are working in concert to undermine democracy. But, increasingly, QAnon itself appears to be one of those forces.

Scott Morrison and QAnon: What we already know about the prime minister's connection to a conspiracy theorist
The ABC's Four Corners has delayed airing a program about the prime minister's connection to a QAnon figure, but much of the detail is already on the public record.
Christopher Knaus - 7 Jun 2021
It has been two years since the public first learned of the prime minister, Scott Morrison's, connection to a prominent Australian proponent of the fringe QAnon conspiracy theory.
Last week, the story made an unexpected comeback, courtesy of the ABC's crack investigative team at Four Corners and a controversial decision to delay a program about it.
So far, it is unclear what more Four Corners has uncovered since Guardian Australia first broke the story in 2019.
A lot of detail is already in the public domain, thanks largely to the initial stories by Guardian Australia and later reporting by Crikey.
What do we know so far?
Let's start with the basics. What on earth is this story all about?
The story, at its core, is simple.
The prime minister, Scott Morrison, has a family friend named Tim Stewart, who also happens to a prominent figure in the Australian QAnon scene.
For the uninitiated, QAnon is a bizarre and convoluted conspiracy theory that posits that Donald Trump is waging war against a secret deep state, which is intent on covering up satanic paedophile rings.
The theory's protagonist, an anonymous internet forum user named "Q", leaves clues on internet message boards like 8Chan for his followers to decipher.
It would be easy to dismiss QAnon as harmless idiocy. But that would be a dangerous misstep.
The FBI has previously warned that QAnon could act as a potential motivator for "domestic extremists".
Experts say it can risk leaving followers polarised and shut off from the outside world, making them unpredictable and struggling to separate reality from fiction.
QAnon proponents were a visible presence during the storming of Capitol Hill in January.
One of those proponents, Jacob Chansley, the so-called QAnon Shaman, is currently before court, where his lawyer has likened his immersion in QAnon to brainwashing or becoming trapped in a cult. His lawyer argued repeated exposure to falsehood and incendiary rhetoric had made it hard for his client to discern reality.
Who is Tim Stewart?
Before Twitter deleted the account last year, Stewart tweeted under the handle of @BurnedSpy34, amassing 21,000 Twitter followers in his first active year.
He was regularly praised by QAnon followers and achieved some fame among local adherents.
BurnedSpy34's tweets contained bizarre and disturbing content, sometimes targeted at Morrison's colleagues or former colleagues.
At one point, BurnedSpy attempted to connect Julie Bishop to the conspiracy due to her wearing of red shoes, which he believed were a "shout out" to paedophiles.
Needless to say, such theories are baseless and wrong.
Guardian Australia revealed last year that Twitter had deleted the @BurnedSpy34 account for "engaging in coordinated harmful activity". It had also taken action against other linked accounts.

There is a seemingly re-emphasis on the strong and tight alliance between the US and Australia, but underneath the sweet-talk, anyone could make out Campbell's genuine purpose, which is to keep Australia within the US' anti-China circle and act with more dedication.
In fact Campbell's remarks are shoving Australia further onto the very frontline of the US anti-China campaign.
Apart from reassuring one of the most loyal US allies in the Indo-Pacific region, the timing of this statement also seems interesting. This Thursday, China's top diplomats Yang Jiechi and Wang Yi will meet US Secretary of State Antony Blinken and White House National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan in Alaska. It seems the US side is playing the "Australia card" to compel for more bargaining space. Australia is being propelled onto a path of no return, as a pathetic pawn in Washington's power game, while China is being accused of "economically coercive." There is a quintessential wickedness in this ruse to allegorically "strike two birds with one piece of stone"
The Sydney Morning Herald says Campbell's remark "is the first known intervention of any nation to take substantive steps in support of Australia in its confrontation with Beijing." Statesmen in Canberra must be either tone deaf or very gullible if they should really believe this rhetoric. There is no substance in Campbell's empty promises; he was merely paying lip service without any substantive measures at all.
Or in fact Canberra might not be so thoughtless, unable to understand the real intent of Campbell as it appears. The politicians of Down Under might simply be pretending to have taken Washington's bait, and play along with the US to try to appeal to the anti-China sentiments that is being stoked up by the China hawks. The ultimate goal is not to serve Australia's national interest, but to reap in partisan profits, in particular with the prospect of an imminent election later this year.
It is to our regret that Australia has not sensibly appraised the gains and losses of its current aggressive policies towards China over the past four years. Former foreign minister Julie Bishop, for example, made tough statements about China during her tenure, but she has instead become more clearheaded after leaving her post. On Monday, during a webinar organized by the Australian National University, Bishop called on the Australian government not to engage in unnecessary tit-for-tat exchanges with the Chinese officials. At the same time, former prime minister Kevin Rudd said that the deterioration in the China-Australia relationship was at least partly due to Australia being one of the US' closest allies, which receives bipartisan support in Canberra. Unfortunately, to date, such lucid and judicious voices still cannot override the anti-China cacophony in Australia.

Liu's links to the Liberal Party
Sources close to Mr Liu told the ABC earlier this year he was on ASIO's radar since at least 2016, when he had the first in a series of meetings with the agency.
Mr Liu was photographed that year attending the launch of a new Australian association for veterans of China's People's Liberation Army that had close ties to Beijing.
Soon after, the imports-exports businessman launched the AEAAI and donated $20,000 to the federal Liberal Party in the lead-up to the 2016 election.
He flooded social media with photos of encounters with a who's who of Liberal Party figures, including Mr Sukkar, Gladys Liu, Home Affairs Minister Peter Dutton, then-foreign affairs minister Julie Bishop, now-Prime Minister Scott Morrison, and former prime ministers John Howard, Tony Abbott and Malcolm Turnbull.
Mr Liu developed relationships with Gladys Liu (no relation) and Mr Sukkar, the Assistant Treasurer, who wined and dined the political donor at events and party fundraisers over at least two years.
Gladys Liu, a prolific fundraiser and campaigner, publicly promoted the AEAAI over several years, spoke at its annual conferences, and helped Haha Liu develop relationships with Victoria Police and Liberal Party politicians.
Mr Liu also sat in Parliament in 2019, watching from the public gallery as Gladys Liu gave her maiden speech as MP.
Mr Sukkar invited Mr Liu to join him at the Parliament budget night dinner and wrote him a thankyou card for his "friendship and support" in 2017.
Mr Sukkar and Gladys Liu declined the ABC's requests for interviews. Their spokesmen referred the ABC to previous statements in which both said allegations against Haha Liu should be "thoroughly investigated."
In his December statement, Mr Sukkar's spokesman said the Assistant Treasurer "never had a private meeting or conversation with Mr Liu, who is known locally not to speak English."
He said they had not attended any of the same "community events" in at least the past two years.
Mr Sukkar's spokesman declined to answer questions about specific fundraising events, but said the thankyou card was one of about 5,000 "personalised Christmas cards" the Assistant Treasurer sent each year.
Gladys Liu said her only dealings with Mr Liu were in his capacity as president of the AEAAI.
Mr Liu declined the ABC's interview request and refused to answer a detailed list of questions.
An ASIO spokesperson said the agency did not comment on intelligence matters, while the Department of Home Affairs said it would not comment on matters before the courts.
Prime Minister Scott Morrison, Immigration Minister Alex Hawke and Home Affairs Minister Peter Dutton were also contacted for comment.

2/3
First, we have forgotten basic truths about human nature that previous generations of Australians better understood. We live in a bent world. We all carry man's smudge: people do bad things. Christians call it sin in a fallen world. Enlightenment thinkers like Immanuel Kant called it the "crooked timber" of humanity. Whatever name we give our condition, we should always guard against the reality of people doing bad things when they are left unaccountable.
The Australian Constitution aligned our system of government to this realist view of human nature. The drafters understood the importance of the rule of law, the separation of powers and the need for accountability among those who serve in government. Our soldiers and officers are no different: they need accountability and firm leadership in the degrading cockpit of war. It appears this did not happen from the very top to the bottom of the command chain.
Second, we ignored the true nature of war and sanitised it. We pretended it was no different to any other form of unilateral government policy. But the reality is that war is inherently violent, escalatory and degrading. It is a modern conceit to pretend that war can be managed with a set of safe technocratic hands. The brutal reality is no plan ever survives the first shot. People lose their way and become hard of heart, especially after multiple deployments.
During World War II, the Churchill government commissioned Laurence Olivier to make a technicolor film version of Shakespeare's Henry V to boost wartime morale. Olivier edited out one third of the play, excising Henry's violent speech demanding the surrender of the Governor of Harfleur. King Henry, understanding the nature of "impious war" once unleashed, posed the question:
"What rein can hold licentious wickedness when down the hill he holds his fierce career?"
Shakespeare paints violent imagery of the "blind and bloody soldier with foul hand" committing all sorts of atrocities. He saw that war has its own dark energy. He knew that it consumes people in ways that modern society cannot comprehend, largely because we have packaged it up nicely for the evening news.
The Australian Defence Force was very effective at sanitising our longest war with its legions of public affairs officers. The United Kingdom and the United States took a liberal approach, allowing reporters to see their soldiers at war. However, we stage-managed Australia's contribution to the Afghanistan war through a carefully crafted information operation. This approach stifled public interest reporting. Perhaps with greater access for the Australian media, some of the events alleged by the Brereton Report might never have happened.
Third, parliamentary scrutiny of Defence is broken and needs fixing. Politicians routinely visited Aussie troops in Tarin Kot. I first met Malcolm Turnbull and Julie Bishop in 2009, on my first deployment with the 2nd Mentoring and Reconstruction Task Force.
I harangued a Labor MP in 2013 about Defence budget cuts when he visited the Special Operations Task Group. Each of them were interested and supportive, but it seemed they didn't know what questions to ask. I now realise this is partly a function of a deficient parliamentary committee system.
There is no independent Joint Defence Committee where tough questions can be asked in a classified, protected space. Parliamentary scrutiny these days is surface level. It amounts to senior Defence leadership presenting a few PowerPoint slides and giving parliamentarians a pat on the head.
This is an area of urgently needed reform. If we are serious about increased accountability and transparency, then we need proper parliamentary scrutiny of the Department of Defence and the Australian Defence Force. Without it, our parliament cannot exercise proper civilian oversight of our military.
Fourth, the Brereton Report rightly condemns a warrior culture that fused "military excellence with ego, entitlement and exceptionalism". Sometimes, SAS operators carried themselves like modern incarnations of Achilles, Thor or Mars. I reject that culture, too. But I believe a warrior culture is an important part of an elite combat unit. It all depends on the beliefs and values you build it on.

'G, what a memory: The day Joe Biden became a footy fan
US president-elect Joe Biden has become footy's latest (tenuous) connection to the Oval Office
Staff writers - Nov 8 2020
SHOULD the Blues make room for a new No.1 ticket holder?
After the news that Joe Biden will be the next President of the United States, surely footy fans would excuse Carlton for making the most of his (admittedly loose) ties to the Blues that stem from his visit to Australia four years ago.
The former US Vice President received a Carlton jumper from then-skipper Marc Murphy on the MCG turf when he attended a round 17 game between the Blues and West Coast at the home of football in 2016.
Mr Biden was greeted by AFL CEO Gillon McLachlan, the AFL Commission's then-chairman and Carlton great Mike Fitzpatrick and the Melbourne Cricket Club's then-president Stephen Smith.
He watched the game with Australia's Foreign Minister of the time, Julie Bishop, and Collingwood forward Mason Cox was on hand as a fellow American to talk Biden through the finer points of the game.
For the record, the Blues lost by seven points to Ms Bishop's Eagles, despite the best efforts of Patrick Cripps and Bryce Gibbs. Eagles star Andrew Gaff earned the three Brownlow votes for a 30-disposal game on the wing.
Mr Biden isn't the first leader of the US to get up close and personal with the red Sherrin.
Back in 2011, Australia's Prime Minister Julia Gillard, a fervent Western Bulldogs fan, showed Barack Obama - whose predominant passion is basketball - the art of handballing during a visit to the Oval Office.
Who knows - perhaps footy could get a foothold in the White House second time around?

Biden will be more nuanced on China: Bob Carr
Former foreign ministers Bob Carr and Julie Bishop believe the likely next US president Joe Biden will be warmly disposed towards Australia and, while less aggressive, will maintain a firm stance on China.
Mr Carr and Ms Bishop both met Mr Biden in their official capacities when he was vice-president.
Both found him incredibly charming and across his brief, and believe Mr Biden is someone who values personal connections with fellow leaders.
"He was a politician's politician," Mr Carr said of his March 2013 meeting at the White House.
"He is breezy, knowledgeable, and all about making friends."
Mr Carr recounted how Mr Biden in their 2013 meeting had spoken of his "special relationship" with Xi Jinping.
Mr Biden had invested effort in getting to know Mr Xi because at the time both were vice-presidents.
According to Mr Carr, Mr Biden said Mr Xi had questioned him in detail about America's civilian control of the military. Mr Biden had told him "Xi had the look of someone terrified at taking over as President", Mr Carr said.
"I have settled on the view Biden will be quite confident talking to Xi Jinping," Mr Carr said.
"He will be strong and he will know what he wants. There will be areas of co-operation with China that don't exist now, but he will maintain the tech war, I think.
"Biden has probably absorbed the view that China is now a challenger but I don't know what he will do about the two Ts - trade and Taiwan."
During their meeting, Mr Biden told Mr Carr he believed Australia had a good knowledge of China and he admired Australia for its gun control laws.
Mr Carr said the biggest irritant that would loom between Mr Biden and Scott Morrison was climate change.
"He knows Australia is a laggard and he believes sincerely in the climate agenda," Mr Carr said.
Ms Bishop first met Mr Biden in 2012 during the annual Australian American Leadership Dialogue at the vice-president's residence when she was still the opposition foreign affairs spokeswoman.
The event stood out in Ms Bishop's mind as, towards the end of the meeting, a US marine brought out a cake to celebrate her birthday.
"It was extraordinarily charming, and showed his team did their homework on who was attending," Ms Bishop recalled, noting Mr Biden's attention to detail.
"He went out of his way to connect to me. He is very entertaining company."
As foreign minister, Ms Bishop escorted Mr Biden during his July 2016 visit to Melbourne and Sydney, including attending an AFL match at the MCG.
During that trip, Mr Biden gave a speech at Paddington Town Hall where he declared the US was "not going anywhere" and its continued presence in the Indo-Pacific was essential to maintaining peace and stability to preserve economic prosperity.
"He regards Australia very warmly and he recognises the importance of the relationship and the alliance," Ms Bishop said.
"He is the sort of person who would welcome early connection, and Australia is well-positioned to do that."
Ms Bishop said Mr Biden would take a "less combative approach to international relations" and Australia would welcome him as a "constructive supporter of the international rules-based order and the United Nations and its bodies".
As Mr Biden continued to inch towards the White House, Opposition leader Anthony Albanese urged Mr Morrison contact Mr Trump and convey "Australia's strong view that democratic processes must be respected".
Mr Albanese also called on the Prime Minister to stop federal backbenchers George Christensen and Matt Canavan from repeating conspiracy theories casting doubt on the integrity of the election.
"Scott Morrison has said that he has a close relationship with President Trump," Mr Albanese said."
"Scott Morrison, as a democratically elected leader, has a responsibility to support democracy."

Twitter permanently suspends QAnon account belonging to friend of Australian PM for 'harmful activity'
BurnedSpy34 and two other accounts associated with prime minister Scott Morrison's friend have been removed by the social media giant in its crackdown on conspiracy content
Christopher Knaus and Josh Taylor - 10 Sep 2020
Twitter says it permanently suspended a QAnon account belonging to a family friend of the prime minister, Scott Morrison, for "engaging in coordinated harmful activity".
Twitter is in the middle of a broader crackdown on QAnon content and is attempting to reduce the amplification of accounts spreading "clear and well-documented informational, physical, societal and psychological offline harm on our service".
BurnedSpy34, a prominent and prolific member of the Australian QAnon scene, was recently permanently suspended.
The man behind the account, Tim Stewart, regularly tweeted content associated with the QAnon conspiracy theory to his tens of thousands of followers, including bizarre and unfounded claims about Alexander Downer and Julie Bishop, among others.
"The account you mentioned below has been permanently suspended for engaging in coordinated harmful activity," a Twitter spokeswoman said.
Last year, the Guardian revealed that the owner of the account was a long-standing family friend of the Australian prime minister and his wife, Jenny. The families' association was driven by the friendship between Stewart's wife and Jenny.
His wife worked on the prime minister's staff in a publicly funded position but not in any policy or advisory capacity. There is no evidence she shares her husband's views. It is not clear whether the employment arrangement is ongoing.
Twitter is understood to have removed 7,000 accounts in the past several weeks for breaching its rules against spam, platform manipulation, and/or ban evasion. Its broader actions are expected to reduce visibility for 150,000 accounts globally.
Two other accounts associated with BurnedSpy34 have also been removed.
The Twitter spokeswoman said Twitter is also no longer serving QAnon content and accounts in trends and recommendations to users. The digital giant is seeking to avoid highlighting QAnon activity in search and conversations and blocking URLs associated with QAnon from being shared on its platform.
"We will permanently suspend accounts Tweeting about these topics that we know are engaged in violations of our multi-account policy, coordinating abuse around individual victims, and attempting to evade a previous suspension," a spokeswoman said. "We will continue to review this activity across our service and update our rules and enforcement approach again if necessary."
Stewart was approached for comment.
Last year, he said he had not attempted to influence Morrison or had conversations with him about any QAnon content.
"I have never spoken to Scott about anything of a political nature. I'm not an adviser. The idea of me talking to him about this … it's just not true," he said.
The QAnon conspiracy is a sprawling and often incoherent set of beliefs that generally postulate that Donald Trump is secretly fighting a shadowy deep state, which is hiding satanic paedophile rings. QAnon followers believe that a secretive individual named Q leaves them clues on the internet to decipher.
The theory has been labelled dangerous and a potential motivator for domestic extremists in the US.

Resignations in the news
Labor adviser Marcus Ganley 'quit after sex claim'
A senior adviser working for Labor foreign affairs spokeswoman Penny Wong left his job after being accused by a female party member of serious misconduct.
Marcus Ganley, Senator Wong's chief of staff, left his position in February after a formal complaint alleging sexual harassment was made to Anthony Albanese's office earlier that month.
Mr Ganley, who now works in a senior position at the ACT's Chief Minister Directorate, denied the allegations and said his reasons for leaving were "clear to the people who need to know".
Multiple sources told The Australian that the alleged incident took place at a private Adelaide event in early February.
The Labor leader's office intervened days after being notified of the complaint, sources with detailed knowledge of the discussions said.
Mr Ganley, a New Zealander, came to some prominence in 2017 after being outed as the Labor staffer who had informal discussions with New Zealand Labour MP Chris Hipkins about the section 44 constitutional crisis roiling the Turnbull government.
Mr Hipkins subsequently raised queries about Australian dual citizens during parliamentary questions, leading to a sharp rebuke from Julie Bishop.
"I would find it very hard to build trust with those involved in allegations designed to undermine the government of Australia," Ms Bishop, the then foreign minister, said at the time.
Mr Ganley resigned from Senator Wong's office in the sitting week starting February 10 after speaking to her and the Opposition Leader's chief of staff, Tim Gartrell, sources familiar with the conversation said.
Senator Wong told Mr Ganley she had lost confidence in his ability to run her office.
Mr Ganley departed later that day, but told colleagues he was taking sick leave.
His exit was announced to Labor staff the following week.
The Australian is not suggesting the allegation is true, only that the complaint was made.
The Australian has chosen not to reveal the identity of the complainant to protect her privacy.
A spokesman for Mr Albanese said the complaint had been "resolved to the satisfaction of the complainant". "We will not comment further on this matter out of respect for the privacy of the complainant," he said.
There was no investigation and few in federal Labor circles are aware of the reason behind Mr Ganley's sudden departure.
To complicate matters, Mr Ganley's partner is employed as an adviser in Mr Albanese's office.
One female Labor MP, who spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the situation, praised Mr Albanese's office for the handling of the complaint. She said the MeToo movement, which has embroiled the entertainment industry and the judiciary, had largely ignored political advisers in parliament.
Last year, two female Liberal staffers alleged they were sexually assaulted while working for senior politicians. One woman worked for a federal minister and said another parliamentary staffer pinned her down and ripped off her underpants during a sitting week in 2015.
The second was a former adviser in the office of the NSW Speaker, who said another Liberal Party member had come to her house and forced himself on her while masturbating.
Thomas Mooney took over as Senator Wong's chief of staff in February, after serving as deputy for the previous year.

'Trump kept talking over the top of me': Turnbull recounts tense call
A furious Donald Trump berated then-prime minister Malcolm Turnbull over a deal to resettle hundreds of refugees, only to joke about the agreement months later by claiming 2000 "terrorists" would come to America.
The US President swung wildly in the negotiations to resettle asylum seekers from Manus Island and Nauru, in a pattern repeated in volatile talks to give Australia valuable exemptions in Mr Trump's trade war with China.
Recounting the clashes and compromises in a new memoir, Mr Turnbull tells of a colleague going "white with horror" at Mr Trump's ferocity about the refugee deal in a notorious phone conversation in January 2017.
Mr Turnbull also reveals a conversation with Barack Obama in the White House in January 2016 when the then-president dismissed the chances of Mr Trump winning the presidential election in November that year.
"Don't worry, Malcolm. The American people will never elect a lunatic to sit in this office," Mr Obama is reported as saying in Mr Turnbull's new book, A Bigger Picture.
But with Mr Trump in power, the prime minister chose to approach him as a billionaire rather than a traditional politician and stick to Australia's position on the refugee deal agreed with Mr Obama in 2016.
Mr Turnbull reveals the agreement was largely settled in September 2016 but only announced on November 13, five days after the US election, in part to prevent Mr Trump turning it into an election issue.
"I spoke with Trump's incoming chief of staff, Reince Priebus, on 7 December and he gave me every impression they'd stick with the deal," Mr Turnbull writes, adding that he received a similar assurance from Mr Trump's son-in-law, Jared Kushner.
But hours before the phone call in January 2017, US Vice President Mike Pence called then foreign minister Julie Bishop and told her the President had changed his mind and Mr Turnbull should not mention it.
"As his anger rose, Trump kept talking over the top of me, with more intensity," Mr Turnbull writes of the phone call.
"It was as though at times he was talking to himself or perhaps to the people in the room, which of course included [then presidential adviser] Steve Bannon, one of the deal's fiercest opponents.
"At one point, I looked up from the phone across my desk to [senior adviser] David Bold - his face was white with horror - so I turned to look out the window instead."
When an account of the conversation was leaked to the US media, Mr Turnbull assumed the source was Mr Bannon attempting to block the deal or distance the President from it.
Yet the conflict was smoothed over when Mr Turnbull flew to New York in May 2017 to meet Mr Trump at a ceremony to commemorate the Battle of the Coral Sea, where the influence of News Corp chairman Rupert Murdoch was also apparent.
"When Trump arrived, he was accompanied by [former New York mayor] Rudy Giuliani and Rupert Murdoch," Mr Turnbull writes.
"His deference to Murdoch was greater than I've ever seen from any Australian politician and was in marked contrast to the high-handed way Trump treats most people.
"When he asked me if Rupert could join us for our bilateral discussion between leaders, I told him that wasn't a good idea.
"He talked about Kerry Packer a lot; he knew I'd been Kerry's lawyer and 'kept him out of jail', something Donald mentioned every time we met."
When Mr Trump asked his wife, Melania, to join the talks, he joked with Mr Turnbull about the refugee deal he had been so angry about months earlier.

Australia: FISA related
AUSTRALIAN SECRET INTELLIGENCE SERVICE - BLACK OPS ARM OF THE AUS DEEP STATE?
This was the particular Australian spy agency that assisted in the attempted coup to overthrow POTUS.
This agency has a very controversial history of clown activity overseas and its activities are DIRECTED by the Australian gov through the department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT).
Notably - Alexander Downer ran DFAT from 1997-2007.
This means that the prime minister and the minister of foreign affairs in particular knew and gave the green light for ASIS to assist in the coup - None other than Malcolm Turnbull and Julie Bishop.
Q asked the question of "who owns AUS? " and what is interesting is that ASIS was being exposed in the 90s for being a rogue entity and that the organisation was being purged of officers and spying on their own citizens among other things (pic related). Could it be that the UK was involved in removing the white hats in ASIS and thus gained controlled of it and it's activities?
ASIS runs the "black ops" on behalf of the Australian deep state overseas and given legal permission to do so under an act that was passed when PM John Howard was in office. These clowns are able to ASSIST in violent or paramilitary activities but not involved in the actual execution of the operation (pic related).

Russia sensationally claims Australia tampered with MH17 wreckage after the plane was shot down - as four separatists accused of killing 298 passengers and crew face court for the first time
The Russian ambassador to Australia has claimed that the country's federal police tampered with evidence from the MH17 plane wreckage.
Dr Alexey Pavlovsky believes integral evidence from the Malaysia Airlines flight that was shot down over the Ukraine was falsified by Australian investigators.
A total of 298 people were killed, including 38 Australians, when a BUK missile shot down the Boeing 777 from Ukrainian territory held by pro-Russia separatists in July 2014.
Dr Pavlovsky claimed that there are flaws in the investigation which was made to reach a predetermined result and blame Russia for the attack.
'The experts say that many of these pictures have been heavily tampered with and it seems that the Australian Federal Police as part of the investigation also had information to this effect but it somehow chose to withhold it from the public,' he told 9News.
Analysts from the MH17 Joint Investigation Team (JIT) included representatives from Australia, Malaysia, the Netherlands, Belgium and Ukraine.
The JIT have charged Russia's Igor Girkin, Sergei Dubinsky and Oleg Pulatov and Ukraine's Leonid Kharchenko with the tragedy, with a trial to begin on Monday.
Footage used in evidence by the JIT showed a truck with a BUK missile from the Russian armed forces travelling from Russia to the Ukraine before returning with no missile.
Russia has denied this accusation, with Dr Pavlovsky saying it is important to establish the truth for the victims families.
'I saw on the internet some copies of the documents indicating the Australian participants to the JIT at least had some signals on the pictures presented as evidence being falsified,' he said.
Dr Pavlovsky believes any evidence that is contrary to blaming Russia for shooting down the plane has been hidden by the Australian and international media.
'The investigation was based on falsified pictures and on the recordings provided by the security services of Ukraine. For me that's quite enough to smell a rat here,' Dr Pavlovsky said.
The Australian Federal Police have denied accusations of using falsified evidence.
Many questions remain unanswered more than five years after the tragedy.
Former Australian foreign affairs minister Julie Bishop told the ABC in 2018 that Russia needed to explain why a missile was taken Russia to Ukraine prior to the attack.
'The Russian Federation must answer how it is that a sophisticated weapon, a BUK missile, was transported from Russia into Eastern Ukraine and was used to bring down a civilian aircraft carrying 298 people and then was immediately taken back into Russia,' she said.
None of the accused will appear in court because both Russia and the Ukraine don't extradite citizens for criminal trials.
Because of this, any sentence imposed may not be served as the Netherlands has no authority over either country.
There is a possibility for more people to be charged over the incident, with the accused facing life in jail under Dutch law.

MH17 investigation: Russia's ambassador to Australia accuses AFP of cover-up
On the eve of the trial of three Russians accused of murder over the downing of MH17, the Russian ambassador to Australia has accused Federal Police of a cover-up.
In a rare exclusive interview with 9NEWS Dr Alexey Pavlovsky, a long-time Russian diplomat, claimed key photographic evidence was "falsified" and withheld from the public.
It's a claim denied by the Australian Federal Police.
Thirty-eight Australians were among 298 people killed when a BUK missile shot down the Malaysian airlines flight in Ukraine in 2014.

Julie Bishop says climate change has been 'weaponised' in Australian politics
Climate change has become a weapon with which to wage war over other issues in Australian politics, says former foreign minister-turned Australian National University chancellor Julie Bishop.
Ms Bishop also said she had no regrets about the Coalition's campaign against the Gillard government's carbon price.
But she did regret the dumping of the National Energy Guarantee, which triggered an internal party furore that ended close ally Malcolm Turnbull's prime ministership, and her 11-year tenure as deputy Liberal leader.
"It was a national energy policy - we do not currently have a national energy policy, as far as I can see," she said in her first series of interviews as ANU chancellor.
After leaving politics at the last federal election in May, Ms Bishop replaced former Labor foreign minister Gareth Evans at the helm of the ANU.
But during her first month in the job, the campus was closed due to bushfires and had important research destroyed by a violent hailstorm.
The university is also grappling with a travel ban from China due to the coronavirus, which is stopping thousands of Chinese students from flying to Australia before the start of the academic year on February 24.
Ms Bishop said Australia has been on the front line of extreme weather events and climate change, and it has "given many people cause for reflection".
She said the decision on emissions reductions for the Paris conference while she was foreign minister was "a unanimous position. We can agree, even though there might be different perspectives on how we achieve that."
But climate change had been weaponised, "ostensibly" costing a series of prime ministers since Kevin Rudd their job, she said.
"Julia Gillard lost her way when we - as a Coalition - mounted such an effective attack on the carbon tax that both Tony Abbott and Malcolm Turnbull were subject to such discontent in the party room because there were not aligning with a particular view of climate change," she said.
"But I actually think many of those leadership tensions were related to other matters … as I said, weaponised."
Ms Bishop had no regrets about campaigning against the carbon price, even though it effectively reduced emissions.
"The fact is Julia Gillard as prime minister promised, 'there will be no carbon tax under a government I lead' - I can't believe I still remember that. Her government was always going to be held to account for that election promise.
"No I don't have any regrets that we held her to account. I do regret that the National Energy Guarantee did not become government policy, I believe it was an elegant solution.
"It was agnostic on how renewable or other forms of energy would be produced, as long as it was lower in price and accessible 24/7 and met our emissions reduction targets. I believe the National Energy Guarantee would do that."

Top US officials to visit Australia next week for talks with Morrison
New York: US President Donald Trump's top diplomat and his newly-installed defence chief will travel to Australia next week for meetings with Prime Minister Scott Morrison and other senior Australian politicians.
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Secretary of Defence Mike Esper will lead the US delegation to Australia for the annual Australia-United States Ministerial Consultations (AUSMIN) in Sydney on Sunday, August 4.
The meetings are held every year between the two countries' top foreign affairs and defence officials, alternating between the US and Australia.
They come a month before Morrison travels to Washington DC, where he will receive a rare state dinner with Trump.
Foreign Minister Marise Payne, who was then defence minister, attended last year's talks in California alongside her predecessor Julie Bishop. This will be the first time Defence Minister Linda Reynolds has participated in the talks.
This year's event comes as tensions between the US and Iran continue to escalate and with the US and China about to re-open negotiations on trade.
"As part of his AUSMIN engagement, the secretary will participate in dialogues aimed at strengthening the Alliance, working shoulder-to-shoulder with Australia to meet global and transnational challenges, and safeguarding sovereignty in Pacific Island countries and Southeast Asia," US State Department spokeswoman Morgan Ortagus said.
"The secretary will also meet with Prime Minister Morrison to discuss continued collaboration on advancing our shared set of values, principles, and overlapping interests."
Pompeo, one of Trump's most trusted advisers, will also travel to Thailand and Micronesia on the trip.
Esper was only confirmed to the position this week by the US Senate, making this his first overseas trip since being appointed the permanent defence secretary.
He replaces James Mattis, who resigned just before Christmas because of policy disagreements with the President.

Cabal always looks after it's own with a cushy intl job
Julie Bishop lands board position in first move after politics
Former foreign minister Julie Bishop has picked up a board director role at the international consultancy Palladium.
The non-executive position is the West Australian's first job in the private sector since she bowed out of politics after more than 20 years at the election.
The company operates in more than 90 countries, providing advice and working on international development projects with governments, companies and not-for-profits.
Ms Bishop says joining Palladium will continue her long-standing interest in economic development in the Pacific and beyond.
"Palladium has a focus on private sector engagement to deliver effective, sustainable development and even invests its own money into projects," she said in a statement on Tuesday.
Palladium chief executive Kim Bredhauer said Ms Bishop has plenty in common with the company.
"We are both committed to inclusive growth, resulting in sustainable solutions around the world."

Bill Shorten hints Julie Bishop could be his ambassador to the US as he praises her for standing up to Vladimir Putin and lashes the Liberal Party for not voting her leader
Bill Shorten has praised Julie Bishop's special 'talent' and announced he wants to talk to the outgoing MP about undertaking a high-profile role representing Australia if he wins government.
'I think Julie Bishop is good at most things she does,' he told the Leadership Matters forum in Western Australia on Wednesday.
The Labor leader spoke highly of the former Foreign Affairs Minister when asked if he would consider her for an ambassadorial position.
'She says she wants to work in the private sector, but I'll certainly be talking to her,' he said according to The West Australian.
'I'm saying to you quite unreservedly here that I've got a lot of respect for her, Chloe and I know her well, she's a good person and we can't waste talent,' he said.
Australia's current ambassador to the US, former Liberal Treasurer Joe Hockey, has called it quits and will be returning home in January after three years in the job.
Mr Shorten lashed the Liberal Party for not choosing Ms Bishop as their leader and therefor PM during last year's leadership spill in which Scott Morrison triumphed,
'Candidly, I think the Liberal Party made a mistake (by not electing her leader),' he said.
'When none of her West Australian colleagues voted for her after everything she's done for them, from fundraising to policy - what is it so hard about Liberal men to vote for Liberal women in positions of leadership.'
Mr Shorten went on to praise Ms Bishop for her stint as Foreign Affairs Minister and the manner in which she handled the MH17 disaster.
'She's served this country well. I haven't always agreed with everything she's said but I will always rate her very highly for when the plane of Australians was shot down over eastern Ukraine,' he said.
'I hope that if I was seeing Vladimir Putin, the way she stood up to the Russians, I hope that in the same circumstances I would behave like her.'
The suggestion to make a high ranking former Liberal draws a contrast to the events of 2016 when Malcolm Turnbull faced pressure from the cabinet and refused to nominate Kevin Rudd as UN secretary general.

>Imo we don't have true Rightwing
Let me introduce you to Fraser Anning! He is launching his party, the Conservative Nationals Party, nation wide. I've posted about it a couple of times now. Full disclosure: I haven't read a lot in to his policies and his true background. Please get stuck in and look in to his history, family, etc to see if he is /ourguy/.
He posts a little bit too much white-power and the gay marriage crap though (I never thought gay marriage such as religious ceremony was right to the church though. let them get it done by a JP or something, couldn't care). Wants to stop foreigners buying land/real estate. Called out Julie Bishop as DS. Calls out scomo, diNatale, shorten as UN puppets. Calls out climate change for what it is. Knows about the HRC donations. Is behind the Yellow vest protestors. sauce: https://twitter.com/fraser_anning
What concerns me is that he may be the controlled opposition and that's why he would be so loud on the gay marriage and white-power shit. Hook in the disenters and lock them in the nazi basket.
>we're too laidback, sleepy and STUPID to standup as Patriots
Bread and Circus for the unwashed while the hun knock on the gates and the mid-upper class gorge themselves on roasted climate change (nee global warming) and circle jerk each other while skulling their sjw-enfused craft beers and aged virtue signalled wine.
To be fair, ya work all day (+ travel to/from it) get home cook dinner, maybe watch a bit of the news, punch ya wife and kids in the face and go to bed. rinse and repeat. No time to find the truth. Especially if you've been told your whole life that the aunty and uncle sitting in the TV set are telling the un-biased truth.
(fyi, i don't think blokes go punching their misses and kids. some do and they're what everyone has traditionally referred to as cunts. The world has always had a spattering of cunts in it and always will). Read somewhere that ~10% of the population are sociopaths (2% of which are psychopaths). Sociopaths are made, psychopaths are born.

Anons post on Julian Assange (cont.)
Sourced from QRes#7032
In 2009, the British Foreign Office concocted a "marine reserve" around the Chagos archipelago.
This touching concern for the environment was exposed as a fraud when WikiLeaks published a secret cable from the British Government reassuring the Americans that "the former inhabitants would find it difficult, if not possible, to pursue their claim for resettlement on the islands if the entire Chagos Archipelago were a marine reserve."
The truth of the conspiracy clearly influenced the momentous decision of the International Court of Justice.
WikiLeaks has also revealed how the United States spies on its allies; how the CIA can watch you through your I-phone; how Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton took vast sums of money from Wall Street for secret speeches that reassured the bankers that if she was elected, she would be their friend.
In 2016, WikiLeaks revealed a direct connection between Clinton and organized jihadism in the Middle East: terrorists, in other words. One email disclosed that when Clinton was US Secretary of State, she knew that Saudi Arabia and Qatar were funding Islamic State, yet she accepted huge donations for her foundation from both governments.
She then approved the world's biggest ever arms sale to her Saudi benefactors: arms that are currently being used against the stricken people of Yemen.
That explains why he is being punished.
WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange leaves after greeting supporters outside the Ecuadorian embassy in London, May 19, 2017 (AP/Frank Augstein)
WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange leaves after greeting supporters outside the Ecuadorian embassy in London, May 19, 2017 Frank Augstein | AP
WikiLeaks has also published more than 800,000 secret files from Russia, including the Kremlin, telling us more about the machinations of power in that country than the specious hysterics of the Russiagate pantomime in Washington.
This is real journalism - journalism of a kind now considered exotic: the antithesis of Vichy journalism, which speaks for the enemy of the people and takes its sobriquet from the Vichy government that occupied France on behalf of the Nazis.
Vichy journalism is censorship by omission, such as the untold scandal of the collusion between Australian governments and the United States to deny Julian Assange his rights as an Australian citizen and to silence him.
In 2010, Prime Minister Julia Gillard went as far as ordering the Australian Federal Police to investigate and hopefully prosecute Assange and WikiLeaks - until she was informed by the AFP that no crime had been committed.
Last weekend, the Sydney Morning Herald published a lavish supplement promoting a celebration of "Me Too" at the Sydney Opera House on 10 March. Among the leading participants is the recently retired Minister of Foreign Affairs, Julie Bishop.
Bishop has been on show in the local media lately, lauded as a loss to politics: an "icon", someone called her, to be admired.
The elevation to celebrity feminism of one so politically primitive as Bishop tells us how much so-called identity politics have subverted an essential, objective truth: that what matters, above all, is not your gender but the class you serve.
Before she entered politics, Julie Bishop was a lawyer who served the notorious asbestos miner James Hardie which fought claims by men and their families dying horribly with asbestos.
Lawyer Peter Gordon recalls Bishop "rhetorically asking the court why workers should be entitled to jump court queues just because they were dying."
Bishop says she "acted on instructions ... professionally and ethically".

Anons post on Julian Assange (cont.)
Sourced from QRes#7032
Perhaps she was merely "acting on instructions" when she flew to London and Washington last year with her ministerial chief of staff, who had indicated that the Australian Foreign Minister would raise Julian's case and hopefully begin the diplomatic process of bringing him home.
Julian's father had written a moving letter to the then Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull, asking the government to intervene diplomatically to free his son. He told Turnbull that he was worried Julian might not leave the embassy alive.
Julie Bishop had every opportunity in the UK and the US to present a diplomatic solution that would bring Julian home. But this required the courage of one proud to represent a sovereign, independent state, not a vassal.
Instead, she made no attempt to contradict the British Foreign Secretary, Jeremy Hunt, when he said outrageously that Julian "faced serious charges". What charges? There were no charges.
Australia's Foreign Minister abandoned her duty to speak up for an Australian citizen, prosecuted with nothing, charged with nothing, guilty of nothing.
Will those feminists who fawn over this false icon at the Opera House next Sunday be reminded of her role in colluding with foreign forces to punish an Australian journalist, one whose work has revealed that rapacious militarism has smashed the lives of millions of ordinary women in many countries: in Iraq alone, the US-led invasion of that country, in which Australia participated, left 700,000 widows.
So what can be done? An Australian government that was prepared to act in response to a public campaign to rescue the refugee football player, Hakeem al-Araibi, from torture and persecution in Bahrain, is capable of bringing Julian Assange home.
The refusal by the Department of Foreign Affairs in Canberra to honor the United Nations' declaration that Julian is the victim of "arbitrary detention" and has a fundamental right to his freedom, is a shameful breach of the letter and spirit of international law.
Why has the Australian government made no serious attempt to free Assange? Why did Julie Bishop bow to the wishes of two foreign powers? Why is this democracy traduced by its servile relationships, and integrated with lawless foreign power?
The persecution of Julian Assange is the conquest of us all: of our independence, our self-respect, our intellect, our compassion, our politics, our culture.
So stop scrolling. Organize. Occupy. Insist. Persist. Make a noise. Take direct action. Be brave and stay brave. Defy the thought police.
War is not peace, freedom is not slavery, ignorance is not strength. If Julian can stand up, so can you: so can all of us.
John Pilger gave this speech at a rally for Julian Assange in Sydney on 3 March.
John Pilger is an award-winning journalist. His articles appear worldwide in newspapers such as the Guardian, the Independent, the New York Times, the Los Angeles Times, the Mail & Guardian (South Africa), Aftonbladet (Sweden), Il Manifesto (Italy).

5-eyes resignations in AUS:
Sourced from QRes#6962
1. OK heads up. This is VERY interesting.
We all want to know when the documents subject to POTUS Trump's 17 September, 2018 will be declassified.
In the US, most think that a trigger will be release of the Mueller Report and shut down of the SC. True. But it's worth considering other indicators.
This comes from an Australian source (extract from email). SPREAD FAR AND WIDE :
2. 'We have seen the following sudden and unexpected resignations in the Australian government.
All are very ambitious Ministers, with extensive and close connections with the Obama State and/or IC community 2015-Jan 2017.
While it's true that the government is weak and there's an election in May, it is not normal that these politicians would suddenly 'resign'.
These are all very experienced Aussie career politicians. Even in opposition, they love being part of the game.
3. Consider: (Date resignation 2019, name, position, dates):
26 January - Michael Keenan, Minister Assisting the Prime Minister on Counter-Terrorism 5/28/15 - 12/20/17
21 February - Julie Bishop, Foreign Minister 9/18/13 - 8/26/18
1 March - Steven Ciobo, Minister for International Development & the Pacific (reporting to Julie Bishop)
Minister, Defence Industry, 7/19/16
1 March - Christopher Pyne, Minister, Defence Industry, - 7/19/16 - 8/26/18 (reporting to Julie Bishop)
4. Now consider:
Pyne is a close ally of Alexander Downer. Both come from Adelaide (capital, South Australia). He's known as 'The Fixer' - knows everything that's going on.
Keenan is a close ally of Julie Bishop. Both come from Perth (capital, Western Australia).
Ciobo is closely linked to both Bishop and Downer: refer
https://trademinister.gov.au/statements/Pages/DisplayAlbum.aspx?w=tb1CaGpkPX/lS0K%2Bg9ZKEg==&Album=Visit%20to%20London,%20September%202016
5. These are all Five Eyes people.
There's absolutely zero doubt that between 2015- Jan 2017 ALL of them would have met with and had access to the following characters in the US:
James Comey (FBI)
Jim Clapper (DNI)
John Brennan (CIA)
Hillary Clinton
John Kerry
And others in US/UK, implicated in #SpyGate.
Just a coincidence they've ALL unexpectedly quit in the last month?
6. ALSO, Rex : Julie Bishop & Alexander Downer are closely connected to the Clintons.
Bishop:

Downer :
https://www.spectator.com.au/2018/09/deep-state-downer-the-foreign-minister-the-pm-and-the-clinton-campaign/
7.
Quote : 'Rex, could be something, could be nothing. But given what's being revealed 24/7, don't you think it's odd that all have 'suddenly' resigned in the last month?'
YES. Yes, I do.
How about you guys?
(H/T 'Thommo')
SPREAD FAR AND WIDE, FOLKS. This seems important, don't you think?
The end.

Julie Bishop (THE GIFT THAT KEEPS ON GIVING) denies any link between donation from elderly Chinese mogul and advisor's appointment
A $50,000 donation was made to the WA Liberal Party by an elderly Chinese industrialist just days before one of his Australian business associates was appointed to a powerful diplomatic advisory board by former foreign minister Julie Bishop.
Ms Bishop, who said on Thursday she would not contest the next election, announced the appointment of Sydney businesswoman Margaret Jack to the board of the Australia-China Council on December 12, 2016, after Hong Kong-based manufacturing mogul Sun Kin Chao deposited the cash into Liberal coffers on December 9.
Ms Jack is a director and shareholder of the Australian branch of Hong Kong-headquartered manufacturing multinational Kinox Enterprises, which was founded by the 99-year-old industrialist in the 1940s.
Ms Jack and Kinox Enterprises are also significant donors to the NSW Liberal Party and the Nationals. Companies controlled by Ms Jack and the Sun family have donated $127,000 to the parties over the past decade in addition to the $50,000 WA donation.
In November 2015, Ms Jack paid $4000 to the NSW Liberal Party to attend a dinner with Ms Bishop and North Sydney MP Trent Zimmerman at La Grillade Restaurant in Crows Nest.
Mr Sun's businesses are now controlled by his son and grandson, who are both closely connected to the ruling Chinese regime.
Sydney businesswoman Margaret Jack was a director of Kinox Enterprises Pty Ltd when manufacturing mogul Sun Kin Chao - also a director - made the donation to the WA Liberals.
His son, Sun Kai Lit - also known as Cliff Sun - is a director and shareholder of the family's Australian company Kinox Enterprises Pty Ltd, along with Ms Jack.
The contact details of his grandson, Eric Sun, who is managing director of Kinox in Hong Kong, were detailed in the document declaring the $50,000 donation to the Australian Electoral Commission.
Ms Jack is also a director of Rougem Pty Ltd, a Sun family controlled company that sold a $26 million Parramatta office block in 2017.
It is understood Ms Jack is highly regarded within the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade and in the business community. She is a board member of Destination NSW, advises the NSW government on international student policy and headed Pricewaterhouse Coopers' first China practice.
Sun Kai Lit was a member of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and is a director of an influential United Front Work Department organisation called the Shenzhen Overseas Chinese International Association SOCIA.
The United Front is overseen by the Chinese Communist Party's Central Committee and leads the party's operations aimed at influencing overseas Chinese and Western elites, including politicians, to back Beijing's aims.
He is also listed as an honorary president of the Federation of Australian Shenzhen Community, which is chaired by controversial billionaire Huang Xiangmo whose bid for Australian permanent residency was recently knocked back on character grounds.
The Australia-China Council was set up in the 1970s to promote "person-to-person" relations between Australians and Chinese and oversees a grants program for economic diplomacy, education, or arts and culture projects in China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Macau and Australia.
Ms Bishop said she had no relationship with the Sun family and the $50,000 donation was unrelated to the appointment of Ms Jack.
"Donations to the WA Liberal Party are handled by the party administration," she said.
"I am very proud to be an Australian," she said.
"I am known for my extensive China business knowledge stemming from many years of occupying senior positions in major multinationals operating in China.
"I have never worked with any organisations directly or indirectly dealing with the United Front Work Department and I do not intend to."
Ms Bishop said she recalled launching Mr Zimmerman's byelection campaign for the seat of North Sydney in November 2015 and attending a dinner afterwards.
"I have no recollection of meeting Ms Jack that evening," she said. "I have no knowledge of any donations in relation to the North Sydney campaign."

And why is the Morrison Muppet suddenly going to help Julian (or is he?).
Snip-it:
Australian barrister and adviser to Mr Assange, Greg Barns, said credit was owed to Australia's former foreign affairs minister Julie Bishop, who he said had gone to great lengths to ensure Mr Assange's rights as an Australian citizen were upheld by being granted a passport.
Ms Bishop announced yesterday that she was quitting parliament at the next election.
Mr Barns said it was time for the Morrison government to get more active in resolving Mr Assange's situation.
"The Australian Government does have a role to play in the resolution of Julian Assange's case," he said.

Julie Bishop parts with iconic red shoes
Nov 28 2018
As Julie Bishop explains it, they were simply a pair of comfortable working boots.
But to accept this description at face value, one would have to overlook Ms Bishop's years of perfecting diplomatic understatement as Australia's first female foreign minister.
The shoes Ms Bishop wore the day she resigned as minister - red satin with bejewelled heels - stood out against a sea of black footwear at the press conference in Parliament House.
The sparkly red heels became an instant symbol of female empowerment.
Earlier on that tumultuous August week, Malcolm Turnbull had been unceremoniously dumped as prime minister.
The chaotic leadership challenge was marred by allegations of bullying and harassment of Liberal women.
Ms Bishop, who put her hand up to replace Mr Turnbull, also came last in a three-way race in favour of two blokes.
On Wednesday, Ms Bishop gifted the iconic shoes she wore only once to the Museum of Australian Democracy at Old Parliament House.
Red is one of Ms Bishop's favourite colours; a symbol of power and passion, of courage and freedom, of love and independence.

Bill Shorten to offer Julie Bishop diplomatic post if elected
The swamp doing what it does best, I wonder where she will get her posting to? UK?
Two sides of the same coin. Same fucking players. Every single time ffs.
https://thewest.com.au/politics/federal-politics/bill-shorten-to-consider-Julie-Bishop-for-diplomatic-post-ng-b881085587z
Julie Bishop's chances of a plum diplomatic post overseas - if and when she quits Federal politics - have improved, courtesy of one of her most bitter rivals.
Opposition Leader Bill Shorten said yesterday he would consider current and former senior Liberal MPs when filling prominent roles if he were to become prime minister.
Ms Bishop has been mooted as a candidate for an overseas role post-politics as rumours about her future beyond this year's election have swirled. The former foreign minister has maintained that she intends to run in her Curtin electorate after being pre-selected as the Liberal candidate.
Mr Shorten told Seven News last night that, if elected, he would consider some of his fiercest political enemies - including former prime ministers Malcolm Turnbull, Tony Abbott and John Howard - for government roles heading inquiries or diplomatic posts.
"I would be open to utilising former prime ministers and people of Julie Bishop's calibre if the right proposition came up," Mr Shorten said.
He ruled out settling Manus or Nauru asylum seekers in Australia as prime minister and backed himself to win Liberal support to lock Parliament to four-year fixed terms.
"I'd need them (the Liberals) to think about it, but you know what? I'm a persuasive fella," he said.

The two most recently notable/popular leaders of the two party tyranny have been Bob Hawke(1980's Labor Party), and John Howard(1996-2007 Liberal(neocon) Party. John Howard effectively disarmed the population after one mass shooting, then plenty of post-9/11 Hijinks with Bush & Blair. Ran the government at a surplus, which helped when the GFC hit.

HRC, Podesta backed by Soros and Juliar ex Aussie PM stealing our land and sabotaging economic development (from 2016 article)
Miranda Devine: Foreign-funded green groups could take whole swathes of Australia out of the productive economy
Hillary Clinton and Julia Gillard have a lot in common - and it's not just the ladylike shoes and matching pearl earrings.
They both love to play the gender card, turning their immense privilege into victim status and dividing the electorate by sex.
Thus, Gillard nobbled Tony Abbott with her fabled misogyny speech and Clinton's machine manages to drown out every Wikileaks embarrassment with a new Donald Trump bimbo eruption.
The other thing the two ladies have in common is the Clinton Foundation, which Wikileaks emails now show is an influence-peddling political slush fund.
And guess which country was one of its biggest donors? Australia. Yep, we're up there with Saudi Arabia and Qatar.
The Australian taxpayer shovelled at least $88 million into the Clinton Foundation and associated entities from 2006 to 2014, reaching a peak of $10.3 million in 2012-13, Gillard's last year in office.
On the Clinton Foundation website, AusAID and the Commonwealth of Australia score separate entries in the $10 million-plus group of donors, one rung up from American teacher unions.
In 2009-10 Kevin Rudd handed over another $10 million to the foundation for climate research, part of $300 million he squandered on a Global Carbon Capture and Storage Institute.
Gillard also donated $300 million of our money to the Clinton-affiliated Global Partnership for Education.
Lo and behold, she became chairman in 2014 and has been actively promoting Clinton as president ever since - in a campaign video last December slamming Trump, in opeds trumpeting the next woman president and in appearances with Clinton spruiking girls' education.
The Abbott government topped up the left-wing organisation's coffers with another $140 million in 2014, bringing total Australian largesse to $460 million, according to a press release from Foreign Minister Julie Bishop.
And yet, apart from the beautiful friendship with Gillard, what did Australia get from the Clintons for all that cash?
A whole lot of trouble is what.

The UN which is Shariah Compliant has 2 sets of Human Rights. They intend to load all Western countries with Muslims, as a guise to introducing Shariah Law as it's part of their religion. 2nd set of Human Rights. The more everyone else squeels about Free Speech, or FF terrorist attacks the more the Corporate Gov., tighten the screws, suppressing Free speech, arresting ordinary citizens. They know once the citizens have really had enough and start standing up to the Government, they introduce Martial Law and then Shariah Law becomes theur full and only law. These truck and car attacks FF are to get rid of Cars out of cities for UN Human Settlements or SmartCities, MegaCities, ResillientCities, SafeCities, StrongCities.

Dig on Australia's old Prime Ministers with connections to Hilldawg and China.
'''Julia Gillard - 29 September 1961 (age 56) Barry, Wales, UK, 27th prime minister of Aus, 24 June 2010 - 27 June 2013'''
First up, articles pop up all around with connections to Clinton. Here are some with all the usual shit of giving each other pats on the back for muh misogyny and muh feminist energy.
https://still4hill.com/2018/01/26/hillary-clinton-and-julia-gillard-to-work-together/

http://www.abc.net.au/news/2015-10-20/julia-gillard-recruited-for-new-hillary-clinton-campaign-video/6868534
Now interestingly Julia was preceded by the biggest douche bag in existence, his excellency (he wishes):
'''Kevin Rudd. - 21 September 1957 (age 60) Nambour, Queensland, Australia. 26th Prime Minister of Aus, Dec 3rd 2007 - 24 June 2010.'''
Now this wanker has his tounge so far up China's ass he can probably taste some dumplings. Even recently he is picking china over his birth country.
https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2018/feb/12/kevin-rudd-accuses-turnbull-government-of-anti-chinese-jihad
He even did a lecture at one of Melbourne's universities with a straight up cabal title:
https://www.latrobe.edu.au/events/all/kevin-rudd-on-chinas-rise-and-a-new-world-order
Now, before Kevin Rudd came to office, Australia was actually in a surplus and manufacturing was somewhat chaotically stable but this faggot fucked it all up, and don't blame it on the 2008 recession, Australia still had positive economic growth during the global crisis and the downward trend in manufacturing jobs started before the crisis. Can you have a guess where all the jobs went? And now Australia has 0 car manufacturing. View the graph in this article.
https://blog.aigroup.com.au/what-is-happening-to-employment-in-australian-manufacturing/
So now, the only way for Australia to keep the economy in a positive trend (because we hardly manufacture or produce anything besides agriculture and mining) is to import rich people to buy houses and then get the taxes from the house sales. When interest rates go up, Australia economy will be fucked.

>Australia is the top destination worldwide for millionaires to migrate to, according to a recently-released report, and it's super-rich Chinese who are settling here in the biggest numbers
'''But it doesn't end there, and this is where its gets fuckin amazing. Behold the spygate/Clinton foundation connection.'''
http://www.michaelsmithnews.com/2018/02/recent-australian-government-data-direct-clinton-foundation-taxpayer-donations-total-130m.html
>On 22 February 2006 the Foreign Minister Alexander Downer and Bill Clinton signed a $25M MoU triggering the first round of Australian donations to the Clinton Foundation.
>The CF recipient entity was the Clinton Foundation HIV/Aids Initiative Inc (CHAI). Australian due diligence failed to detect that the entity did not hold the necessary US authority to operate in the treatment of HIV/Aids, further that the entity was wound up by the Massachusetts corporate regulator effective 31 December 2007.
>By December 2008 the Clinton Foundation reported that Australia was its largest Western Government donor.
>On 22 September 2014 in New York, FM Julie Bishop and Bill Clinton witnessed the signing of a new MoU with the Clinton Health Access Initiative (CHAI) "committing Australia and the Clinton Health Access Initiative (CHAI) to work together to transform access to health in developing countries over the next five years".
Yes that's right, Alexander Downer kicked off the Clinton foundation donations. The same fuckhead that is connected to spygate connections to the UK. And it all started was Kevin Rudd and continued under Gillard.
So as Q has said, US up for sale to the highest bidder. Well Australia's already been sold out. I hope Gillard and Rudd have done something criminal enough that warrants arrests because I will never forgive them, they were the beginning of the end. However, im happy to be here and see the rerise of western civilization. We are winning, and I cant wait till every cabalist cunt gets called out and everyone gets put back in their place because the autistic faggotry is doing my head in.
Cheers cunts. WWGOWGA.

This idea is a little out there. Could the Clinton's link to Aus be something to do with the Aboriginals? Similar to their 'taste' for Haitians maybe.. Q also mentions "Blood."
Australian Aboriginals are one of the oldest cultures on Earth. Most of their communities right now seem to be terrible, degenerate places because of things like rampant child sexual abuse and alcoholism. It's a national tragedy. Probably makes them 'easier' to kidnap and traffick though.
There's also this:

Rihanna tweeted and Julie Bishop responded with a lazy $90M Aus taxpayer donation to GPE (not CF but is C-related) less than four weeks after Q posted "Coincidence all donations to the CF terminated post defeat?"
Were they looking to cover their asses? E.g. if Aus still donates to Clinton-related foundations, how can it be Pay2Play?
Or Australia was still being forced to donate and I'm way off the mark.
Were they previously forced to donate because of compromising information on top Australian politicians? Globalist macroeconomic power-plays/threats? Maybe both?

Gillard also donated $300 million of our money [ Australian Tax Dollars] to the Clinton-affiliated Global Partnership for Education.
Lo and behold, she became chairman in 2014 and has been actively promoting Clinton as president ever since - in a campaign video last December slamming Trump, in opeds trumpeting the next woman president and in appearances with Clinton spruiking girls' education.
The Abbott government topped up the left-wing organisation's coffers with another $140 million in 2014, bringing total Australian largesse to $460 million, according to a press release from Foreign Minister Julie Bishop.

In summary, the records of many deals made with the Clinton Foundation by Australian leadership (Kevin Rudd, Julia Gillard, Julie Bishop, Malcolm Turnbull) since the 1990's have not been able to be accessed by the Australian taxpayer.
The AUS relationship with the CF is laden with many dodgy schemes including pharmaceutical connections with Indian company named 'Matrix' which was later bought by the USA big pharma named Mylan.
Owner of this company Nimmigad Prasad served 17 months in prison in 2012.
and said that the CF didnt buy the pharmaceuticals from him directly but acted as facilitators to provide the drugs to the foundations various projects in low income countries.

Current Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull (Globalist establishment, Ex-Goldman Sachs Banker)
Very rich for an Australian politician. Previous investor in a major Australian ISP when the internets exploded. This fellow most likely leaked his own phone call with Trump and knows all about when US data collection and privacy invasion came online in Australia.

Previous Prime Minister Tony Abbot
He stopped the huge number of refugee boats, because it was fucking obvious everyone would love it. Ate a raw onion on camera. Hates Julia Gillard.
Previous Prime Ministers Rudd and Gillard (Labor Party)
They accelerated the refugee intake and boats, big time. Ran a similar GFC response to what Obama did. Fought with each other and switched places in leadership challenges (Rudd-Gillard-Rudd).
The two most recently notable/popular leaders of the two party tyranny have been Bob Hawke(1980's Labor Party), and John Howard(1996-2007 Liberal(neocon) Party. John Howard effectively disarmed the population after one mass shooting, then plenty of post-9/11 Hijinks with Bush & Blair. Ran the government at a surplus, which helped when the GFC hit. Paid Australians to have babies with the Baby Bonus.

Looks like he is on a rampage posting vids lately.
This is a 2010 ABC Australia documentary, "Mr Sin, The Abe Saffron Story". Saffron was Israeli intelligence all the way.
He blackmailed most of the New South Wales and Victorian political and business class via his one way mirrors in his brothels.
He was intimately linked with Australian and Israeli intelligence.
He specialized in sexual compromise well before Jeffrey Epstein.
He had Australian media magnate Kerry Packer on video and Packer himself was an ace blackmailer.
Kerry Packer was tasked with running Australia's casino's in co-operation with Shelden Adelson and Israeli intelligence. They are now run by James Packer, his son. James Packer is in bed with Benjamin Netanyahu and on charges of bribery with Netanyahu.
They are all friends with Australian media magnate Kerry Stokes who is besties with the former Australian foreign minister Julie Bishop. They are both from my home state and close personal friends with Benjamin Netanyahu. Please consult my UN Refugee document, page 146 on. You'll see just how big my case is and how close Netanyahu was to my court case.

Julie Bishop (current Minister for Foreign Affairs) was trying to buy favour as well but this stopped with Trump's victory.
There were also some military deals that went down along with Obama's promise to take 2000+ asylum seekers that were kept on Manus (PNG) and Nauru. PM Turnbull pushed hard in his first call with Trump for the USA to accept them so he could save face with Australians.

The Australian taxpayer shovelled at least $88 million into the Clinton Foundation and associated entities from 2006 to 2014, reaching a peak of $10.3 million in 2012-13, Gillard's last year in office.
On the Clinton Foundation website, AusAID and the Commonwealth of Australia score separate entries in the $10 million-plus group of donors, one rung up from American teacher unions.
In 2009-10 Kevin Rudd handed over another $10 million to the foundation for climate research, part of $300 million he squandered on a Global Carbon Capture and Storage Institute.
Gillard also donated $300 million of our money to the Clinton-affiliated Global Partnership for Education.
Lo and behold, she became chairman in 2014 and has been actively promoting Clinton as president ever since - in a campaign video last December slamming Trump, in opeds trumpeting the next woman president and in appearances with Clinton spruiking girls' education.
