A "celebrity" Cavoodle called Oscar who allegedly boasts 10,000 followers on Instagram is at the centre of a custody and defamation dogfight in a Sydney court., plaintiffs Kenneth Flavell and Gina Edwards are suing Mark Douglas Gillespie over the custody of Oscar, as well as seeking orders to restrain allegedly defamatory statements being made by him in the future.Mr Gillespie is defending the case and has filed a defence and cross-claim in court.

"Oscar's Instagram account is apparently closed pending this litigation, but the parties, although able to agree on little else, assure me that Oscar is a dog of more than usual value." Judge Gibson said it was not clear the court had jurisdiction to hear the case because Oscar's value and the cost of his upkeep may have exceeded a $20,000 limit.

'There's nothing sinister': NSW MP speaks out about chat group at centre of foreign interference allegationsA social media chat group alleged to be part of a foreign influence plot has been misrepresented, according to NSW politician Shaoquett Moselmane. Why mention the Chinese when raided?, 'I'm a backbencher. I have no portfolio, I don't have anything to provide, if you like, that would be of interest to the Chinese. I can't see why they would be approaching me for foreign influence.' “Federal police allege Mr Zhang and unnamed others used a social media chat group to act on behalf of the Chinese state apparatus. The chat group is understood to be a WeChat group.” The group that knew of the arrival of the Chinese Navy ships before the Australian authorities.. It's all as sinister as those involved can get away with. It's a subculture of rorts and white collar crime.
