Some thoughts on One Nation, middle-aged men, and Barnaby, that only had to be *slightly* reviewed by legal:
What’s going on with Gen X men and One Nation? I'm sick of being told to feel sorry for them

Australia is paying $750m to a US prison company and $2.5bn in a secret deal to Nauru, yet the hundred or so asylum seekers in Nauru are starving.
It’s called corruption, and someone in authority should look into it.
