Qldaah samanthamaiden StandWithBrittanyHiggins

davidbewart samanthamaiden Who knew what and when &who gave the references? Bruce Lehrmann Scott Morrison Linda Reynolds Michaela Cash Peter Dutton Greg Hunt Marise Payne Scott Ryan Tony Smith Alan Tudge Scott Dewar Daniel Try Christian Porter Yaron Finkelstein Fiona Brown John Kunkel BrittanyHiggins

samanthamaiden But never thought to advise the PM? What is Dutton's real game here? Adding up numbers to throw the PM under a bus?

samanthamaiden Call me cynical but is there some undermining of Morrison going on here? Maybe Dutton smells another leadership challenge

samanthamaiden He was 'tipped off'? is that the current 'Politically Correct' euphemism for 'I did not need to know'?🙃

samanthamaiden Why would the AFP wait until 11 February 2021 to inform Dutton of the rape allegations when it had known/suspected since early 2019 and guidelines require the Home Affairs minister to be advised of any 'politically sensitive' matters? All very suspicious.

samanthamaiden Frankenstein's monster does not have emotions

samanthamaiden I hear that the LNP are considering making rape within Parliament House a crime. It will depend upon the recommendations of its owned internal inquiry.

samanthamaiden Using it side step his own allegations of corruption

samanthamaiden If the PM knows of such matters w/r to the Labor party, is he committing another moral offence? Or is he just spreading blame 'like he holds a blame-hose'. A duplicitous man of low qualities in my opinion, either way.

broomstick33 samanthamaiden Well they all know their script a send are sticking to it.

samanthamaiden and Alex Hawke served as Special Minister of State from 28 August 2018 until 26 May 2019 .. these dates are interesting

It rewards all those SF soldiers who looked the other way, fostered the culture that led to it, and/or failed to provide effective command, control and leadership. And totally undermines the CDF, himself an SF soldier. Stupidity writ large. Are we supporting war criminals bc they wear an Australian uniform. We better not open our mouths ever again about other countries war criminals.
