Now SA just needs the Greens motion to disallow regulations that would lift the moratorium on mainland South Australia to be defeated next week - there is a strong reliance on the SA Best vote, which on paper suggests they would be in favour of the science, but minor parties can be unpredictable.

Leyonhjelm will have to pay her $120,000 plus interest and legal costs, sucked in that clown disgraced the parliament.

Despite this very clear standard:
The PM’s “Statement of Ministerial Standards” Clause 7:1
“...a Minister should stand aside if that Minister becomes the subject of an official investigation of alleged illegal or improper conduct.”
The PM has said that he does not need to stand aside. He is off to Spain in a week for an UN Climate Conference.
No point in having the standards then.
Mr Morrison rejected calls to stand Mr Taylor aside, telling Federal Parliament he had spoken with NSW Police Commissioner Mick Fuller who told him the "nature and substance" of inquiries were based solely on the allegations referred to them last month by shadow attorney-general Mark Dreyfus.

For him to do so is poor judgement. For the PM to say in parliament that of course he would ring the Commissioner, who else would he ring (mmmm perhaps the investigating officer?) is even poorer judgement. May not have been intended but to do so but the call itself compromises police independence (learnt perhaps from the Peter Dutton school of visa grants) and puts into question the legitimacy of any findings.

Did you just call the Leon Byner Program regarding the above?

Except it is the same $11mil he pledged for the National Aerial Firefighting Centre over a year ago and that has been sitting in the grants account under the auspices of the Dept of Home Affairs.
Has there ever been a more crooked piece of shit than the bloke in charge right now?
