Lobbyists (bribery) outnumbers politicians 15 to 1. While voters cannot gain access to their member for parliament. And don’t receive a reply to their concerns via email. #Auspol We need Change
Graph Article excerpt 
Under Morrison there was a steady rise - 34 in 2019, 40 in 2020, 44 in
2021. That jumped when Albanese was elected, with 99 registered in 2022, 137 in 2023, peaking at 226 new lobbyist registrations in 2024,
ahead of the last election. Another 206 were added in 2025. That tells you everything about how profitable businesses find lobbying to be. But it may also indicate that we've reached a tipping
point.

Kerry O’Brien sounds the alarm for Australian media in thunderous Walkleys address | Weekly Beast
Former 7.30 host takes Labor government to task for record on press freedom and pays tribute to Palestinian journalists. Plus: a roo in the news * Want to get this in your inbox every Friday? Sign up for the Weekly Beast media newsletter here The former ABC broadcaster Kerry O’Brien got a standing ovation at the 70th Walkley awards on Thursday night for a rousing speech that reminded media in the ICC Sydney ballroom of the “clear and present danger for a strong, free, effective and independent media everywhere”. The winner of six Walkley awards, including the Gold, called on the industry to unite to strengthen press freedom. He began by paying tribute to Palestinian journalists who have “confronted the world with powerful evidence that has gradually taken on the look and feel of genocide in real time” and decried the “outrageous casualty list of Palestinian journalists and other media workers in Israel’s war on Gaza since the brutal attack by Hamas on Israeli citizens two years ago”.
