Senator Rex Patrick, whose Centre Alliance party holds a crucial two seats in the Senate, has become a powerful ally. He is calling on the Government to intervene and drop the charges.
"They have shown that there was improper conduct taking place inside the Adelaide ATO office, and the ATO now concedes that they have fixed that problem, and yet he finds himself facing a jail term," Senator Patrick said. In a statement, Mr Porter defended his decision, saying the power of the Attorney-General to reverse an independent decision of the Commonwealth Department of Public Prosecutions should only be used in the most extraordinary and exceptional circumstances.Mr Boyle said he hoped something would change."It doesn't seem like it'll stop any time soon."
We need to not pay our taxes this year and continue to do so until all charges are dropped and those who were highlighted sent to prison. They’re not going to put us all in jail but SCUMO and crew would have to back down. Don’t even think of fining us all. Nothing next year also.
We need whistleblower protections to ensure both goverment and corportions act correctly.
Whistleblower legislation is just not good enough. Despite the legal protections, every whistleblower knows their caree is finished whilever current management remain.
Pointed out wrong doing, that the ATO has admitted to and faces a jail term. Seems fair🤦♂️, did the right thing and get hung for it.

'Life-saving' electroconvulsive therapy still faces pop culture stigma, chief psychiatrist saysAn effective treatment for severe mental illnesses still faces high rates of stigma and misunderstanding, despite moves to increase access to the therapy, the ACT's chief psychiatrist says. I’d like to see a fact check of the claim 60-70% felt they’d recovered from their illness after ECT. What other therapies did those patiwnts receive? Some people do worse things to their brains with chemicals at dance parties. So if you consented and it works, good, better than being dead by your own hand. This maybe the answer to your TDS ABC ? may have to amp-up the volt meter thou, start at 40,000 volts & work your way down, just kidding of course.

'I love you': Wife's final words to husband as he strangled her revealed during sentencingThe Perth father convicted of murdering his wife and burying her in the backyard as their children slept has been sentenced to life imprisonment, to serve a minimum of 23 years behind bars. This makes me so angry 😡 Why someone who did that gets to live while she can’t is intolerable!!! He should have claimed that Muhammad was talking to him and made him kill her. Would have gotten off scot free. The sentence is too light. We have no fault divorce. The murder was wanton cruelty, cunningly planned and an innocent life was destroyed. He will be out when he’s sixty, if not earlier. It’s just wrong. Non-parole period of 43 years would be more fitting and sends a message
