Sky News host Andrew Bolt says after years of conservatives complaining social media platforms like Twitter and Facebook are biased against them, it now “seems so blatant” with the US election coming up in November.

Twitter has again put a warning label on US President Donald Trump’s tweet which warned protesters against trying to create an autonomous zone in Washington DC. “If they try they will be met with serious force,” the President tweeted.

Twitter claimed the post violated its policy against abusive behavior specifically the “presence of a threat of harm against an identifiable group”. Now Facebook has come under fire for less explicit bias as a Project Veritas film caught Facebook moderators declaring they actively delete certain pro-Trump posts. Former CEO of Facebook Australia Stephen Scheeler told Sky News there is a “high degree of attempts at being neutral” by social media platforms.

'Government broke the system': Labor calls for robodebt royal commission | Sky News AustraliaAnthony Albanese and Bill Shorten have reiterated Labor’s demands for a royal commission into the robodebt scheme saying the government “broke the system”.\n\nThe scheme matched tax and income reported to Centrelink to automatically generate debts from people including many who were found to owe no money at all. \n\nAlmost 500,000 debts totalling more than $720 million will be refunded to Australians after the Federal Court declared the scheme unlawful. \n\n“We need a royal commission because our system is broken and the government broke it,” Mr Shorten said.\n\n“This is a royal commission that the Morrison government is bringing on itself.”\n\nLabor leader Anthony Albanese said an inquiry would uncover when the government knew the scheme had been declared unlawful and argued it was needed to prevent another disaster from happening. \n\n'It was wrong. It was illegal. It can never be allowed to happen again,' Mr Albanese said on Twitter on Tuesday morning.\n\nPrime Minister Scott Morrison on Tuesday argued there was no need for a royal commission, insisting his government was “fixing the problem”. \n\nImage: News Corp Australia\n AlboMP billshortenmp 🤣🤣🤣 AlboMP billshortenmp DRC_AU Royal Commission into LANTITE is a must.

Seriously wtf is going on? We have just over 100 active cases out of a population of 6.4 million!!! So now if your municipality has 6 or so active cases it’s considered a hot spot ... these are crazier times than a couple of months ago!!!! Makes no sense ...... So if you're in NSW and see a constant stream of cars going by and not stopping...... just smile and wave, they probably holidaying Victorians. Taking in the sights from the inside of their car.
