In response to a question about Australia not being prepared for life with Covid, the Prime Minister says healthcare workers are doing a great job. True, but what's that got to do with the rapid test shortage and price gouging? That's the government's remit.

I am speechless that killing a woman - even accidentally - doesn’t result in full-time jail. I just wrote a yarn about a man getting four months for drunkenly smashing into a fence. In this justice system you get more time for killing a fence than a woman.

Every few months a new person will discover this and that’s what my whole Twitter will be about for that entire day. Honestly, I’m just happy if you’re all happy.
