Lidia Thorpe continues to preach division in the Australian community. Maybe if she showed some interest in the welfare of kids in Alice Springs who appear to roam in the early hours at will showing anti-social behaviour, sniffing petrol/glue without any blame being directed towards parents whose existence is centred on alcohol, domestic and sexual abuse, then and only then, will she be taken seriously.
Where is the outcry from the Aboriginal community leaders- their silence is deafening.

So Harry's army training meant nothing if he was "scared" of his brother who allegedly pushed him over. Face to face combat is apparently much tougher than killing 25 from the relative safety of a helicopter gunship.

Assumably, sponsors have a "no play, no pay" clause in their contracts. Why she bothered entering her name in the Open smacks of hypocrisy.

Ok Harry, time to get a real job. As for the apparently fragile wifey, just fade away like most actors do.

It is not a reflection of his handling of the emergency. It is a reflection of the ineffectual opposition party who failed to highlight the deficiencies of the Andrews administration.
Victorians are still owed an explanation regarding the hotel quarantine fiasco to which the Premier's standard reply is "I can't remember" At the 2018 election he championed transparent and accountable Govt and then shuffled the comments into the wastepaper basket.
