    Australia is on track to soon spend more on franking credit refunds to retirees who don’t pay tax than it spends on public schools. No, this debate isn’t over.

    The Department of Justice just declared war––€”not on Wikileaks, but on journalism itself. This is no longer about Julian Assange: This case will decide the future of media.

    I think he’s referring to those tedious checks-and-balances and due process thingies - the ones that underpin accountability. Every crap Minister I ever worked for complained about them. Good ones understood what they were for - and that they were a protection for all concerned.
