Malcolm Turnbull's autobiography, much as it claims objective authority, is a tome constructed in a voice you might describe as ‘‘first-person magnificent’’.

? Turnbull, after all, lost. Not that he would frame his dismissal by his colleagues, and his removal from the Prime Ministership as anything quite so mono-dimensional as ‘‘losing’’.

The relationship with his father, Bruce, would turn out to be a strong one in Coral’s absence, one Turnbull describes as brotherly — ‘‘Until I met Lucy, Bruce was the closest person to me in the world’’— and one that ended with cruel violence in 1982, with Bruce Turnbull killed in a light-plane crash at the age of 56.

Turnbull rides on: from the law, to Packer, to a vastly lucrative stint in merchant banking, from the failed campaign for a republic, to branch stacking his way to pre-selection for the Sydney seat of Wentworth.

Every day the economy remains closed contributes to a ‘bigger depression’ | Sky News AustraliaEvery day the economy remains closed is a “body blow” to the ranks of unemployed and businesses, according to Sky News Political Editor Andrew Clennell. \n\nMr Clennell said the “shocking” news relayed by the prime minister in a press conference today “was that 800,000 more people were on the dole” since the beginning of the lockdown which occurred five weeks ago.\n\nOn top of the 713,000 who were identified as unemployed on March 15, which amounts to an unemployment rate of 5.2 percent, by May it is forecasted unemployment will rise to 12 percent, he told Sky News host Andrew Bolt. \n\nAccording to Mr Clennell these statistics indicate the economic impact of the coronavirus will be “bigger than the recession of the 1990s, bigger than the recession of the 1980s and the biggest since the great depression”. \n\n“1.5 million Australians will be out of work,” he said. \n\nAccording to Mr Clennell, while Australia has done 'fantastically well' on the health front, the government “needs to get moving on things like restaurants and cafes”. \n\nImage: Getty\n\n I'm now going to financially better off by working less and getting job keeper. Yes my turnover is legitimately dawn enough to qualify, but it's madness that a few good days mean I won't trade in order to get some certainty of income. Sheer fucking madness. Agree with Scott Morrison - world deserves an independent assessment of how COVID19 occurred - the virus has taken more than 200,000 lives across world & has shut down global economy. Implications and impact are extraordinary. We must learn how not to let this happen again The nation's deputy chief medical officer Paul Kelly is confident Australia can handle a second wave of coronavirus infections if there is a spike in new cases when the country winds back restrictions. This comment unfounded & is made only to back up decision to ease restrictions
