Louise Milligan, you are a champion! Thank you for making this program available worldwide. It is the clearest, most comprehensive and powerful telling of "the evil that men do" in protecting wealth and status by perpetuating horrendous suffering.

@milliganreports.bsky.social has done a brilliant job (as always) with this #4corners report: she is explaining complicated issues in understandable ways. I can’t even imagine the legal scrutiny her reporting, as is being broadcast right now, had to survive 😬🤯😱 Ms Milligan is a national treasure.

Question for the Christian Brothers: Exactly how much property did they transfer without monetary consideration (ie, for free) to EREA, half of which of its billion dollars in revenue comes from taxpayers? A pertinent question, given EREA refuses to give the brothers enough funds for compensation.

THREAD: 1. Some years ago women academics contacted me unsolicited on Twitter (which I no longer use) about an academic in Melbourne. They’d made complaints to a faculty head about the man’s targeted, obsessive bullying of women colleagues, including First Nations women. The university kept him on.

That feeling when an idiot troll sends email with a fake name but it’s a gift because the name’s so funny, it’s perfect for an annoying character (a shallow frenemy) in the novel you’re writing. Also, is there a German word for a hateful public figure making a major fashion faux pas? Surely so?

ICYMI last night’s #4Corners on poor behaviour by #police, it’s well worth a watch. I’ve worked with many excellent and under-appreciated police over decades, but it’s vital they’re held to the highest standard and this story by my colleagues Dylan Welch and Elise Potaka is powerful and disturbing.
