Morrison government rejected US request for Red Sea military support just before 2022 election


Perfectly reasonable. The Tories only had 11 warships to play with. Barely enough to keep boat people out.

An honest politician is one who when he is bought will stay bought.

Alex Hawke faces fresh expulsion push
Paul Karp
Paul Karp

In July we reported that Liberal MP and Scott Morrison ally Alex Hawke was facing a push to expel him from the party over claims he delayed preselections, harming the Morrison government’s chances at the 2022 election.

According to the agenda of the New South Wales Liberal state council, that expulsion motion will be voted on this Saturday.

The motion was put forward by the Artarmon branch of the Liberal party, who cited accusations that Hawke, the former immigration minister, failed to attend nomination review committee meetings before the 2022 election, delaying preselections.

In July a Liberal source told Guardian Australia that Hawke was a “deeply unpopular figure” in the party but some fear the motion sets a “dangerous precedent” and although some may vote for the motion to “let off steam” it was regarded by many as a “dumb idea”.

Typical double standards by the Coalition.  Dead

Morrison government rejected US request for Red Sea military support just before 2022 election

Over recent months, the Albanese government has faced sustained criticism fo not deploying a warship to help respond to Iranian-backed Houthi rebels attacking civilian traffic travelling through the crucial trading route.
Following a Senate Estimates hearing on Monday, the Coalition accused Prime Minister Anthony Albanese of being "missing in action" over last year's military request from the United States.

However:

Details have now emerged of a similar request made to Australia during the Morrison government, when the then-commander of the American-led Combined Maritime Forces (CMF) sought assistance to establish a new combined task force in the region.

"I encourage you to participate in and support CTF 153, whether that be in the form of provision of CTF staff, force elements at sea or in the air or, assuming Command at some point," the senior American officer wrote to the ADF in February 2022.

"I would be grateful if you would also consider allocating any units you may have transiting the Red Sea in Associated Support or Direct Support for CTF 153 once established."

(However) Australia told the United States two years ago it was unable to help establish a new military task force in the Red Sea region because resources were needed at home and in the Indo-Pacific.

Presumably three or four Coalition members, notably the disgraced Morrison and the venal Robert, have sufficiently covered their tracks.

Four current or former public servants have breached the Australian Public Service code of conduct in relation to the Robodebt scheme, according to the preliminary findings of an independent investigation.

Hasn't Scotty decided to hang in there with his political career because the business world and the after dinner speaking world all looked at him and in unison said, "we're good thanks!"

I was only reading last week that Scotty is starting to find his voice again, I guess he feels he has served his penance and now God will guide him back to the top job.

Former top cop Christine Nixon reveals that, as rorters and criminals flooded the visa system, the authorities went missing


A focus on stopping migrant boats as millions of people arrived on planes with inadequate scrutiny meant authorities missed widespread exploitation and abuse in Australia’s visa system, according to the former top cop who led the Albanese government’s immigration rorts inquiry.


We were told the department’s energy went into the boats [with asylum seekers] but people were just flying into Australia in their millions,” she said.

Though Brandis has given him a right decent serve.  Though unsurprising given Pessullo's attempts to undermine him.

No minister, Labor or Liberal, will ever be able to trust Pezzullo again


The problem with Mike Pezzullo has always been that he doesn’t understand limits.  he does not understand the limits of a public servant’s role and the need not to cross the boundary between being an adviser to government and a political player.

But that is not the only limit he doesn’t appear to understand.  He doesn’t appear to understand the boundaries between the elected government and the public service: hence his remark in one encrypted message: “We need to build a meritocracy by stealth and run government through the bureaucracy, working to 4-5 powerful and capable ministers.” It wasn’t only individual ministers Pezzullo was undermining, it was the very concept of an apolitical public service answerable to the elected government.

Interesting seeing all these Libs today suddenly not want to comment on Mike Pezzulo and corruption accusations. As secretary for Immigration/ Border Force/ Home Affairs for 9 years he knows where all Morrison and Dutton's skeletons are buried.

Inflation worse under Coalition than Labor



https://independentaustralia.net/politics/politics-display/inflation-worse-under-coalition-than-labor-contrary-to-morrisons-claims,15772

Australia’s history with inflation exposes Morrison’s claims of disaster under Labor as nonsense. Labor’s record is much better than the Coalition’s.

Under Labor, Australia led the world

The World Bank helps us here with inflation records for all developed countries going back to the early 1970s.

From 1971 to 1990, Australia’s inflation rate fluctuated wildly. But that happened everywhere. Inflation reached 15.4% in 1974, which helped sink the Whitlam Labor Government. But the OECD average that year was 32%. Australia’s economy under Gough Whitlam was actually one of the world’s more successful.

Australia’s OECD ranking on inflation remained pretty much in the middle – between 13th and 21st – for most of the period 1971 to 1990.

Then came the radical restructure during the Hawke years driven by reformist Treasurer Paul Keating. The World Bank’s data validates Keating’s 1991 claim that he had “snapped the stick of inflation”. By 1991, Australia’s inflation rate had fallen to 3.2%, which ranked fifth lowest in the OECD. The next year it was just 1.01%, which was the developed world’s lowest.

The Coalition lags behind Labor badly

Examining global rankings through the last 40 years shows Coalition outcomes are consistently worse than Labor’s. A simple exercise is to observe the average ranking in the OECD throughout that period. This takes into account prevailing global conditions, which varied greatly.

Australia’s inflation rankings rose steadily through the Hawke period, which saw improvements in all economic outcomes as Keating’s reforms took effect. The best inflation outcomes by far were in the Keating years, when Australia was in the top ten countries by low inflation four times, including 1992 when it was lowest. Next best were the Rudd and Gillard Labor governments, which most independent commentators accept delivered the world’s best economic responses to the Global Financial Crisis.

Next best – or second-worst – were the Howard years, where inflation remained low worldwide, with deflation appearing in Japan and Sweden. In 1997, Australia again had the OECD’s lowest inflation rate, and in 1998 was fourth lowest, confirming the stick stayed broken for quite a while.

Things deteriorated thereafter, however, and most of Howard’s last eight years saw Australia languishing outside the OECD’s best 20.

Poorest rankings for inflation historically, by far, have been through the Coalition years since 2013, with the financial year just ended the worst on record. Ranking 31st is the lowest ever. Fortunately, inflation improved slightly in the September quarter, but not by much.

An honest politician is one who when he is bought will stay bought.

 as one poster on X eloquently said:

 It is what a reasonable person would make of the conversation and I think there is pretty much consensus on the fact that you cannot disconnect the relationship between the argument and the maker of the argument.
In other words if you call the argument racist, the maker is considered a racist. The same applies to the word stupid.

Every academic, lecturer and teacher knows to never call a question or argument stupid. Why do you think that is? I case you don't know, it is to avoid that this classification has a negative impact on the character of the individual making the argument or asking the question. She should grow up and own what she states or says as an academic, as lecturer and as teacher. Her role is to establish a trust relationship.
