"If ministers ran offices where top-secret documents were left and not accounted for and proper processes were not followed, they should be investigated and the culprits charged" @GrayConnolly #TheCabinetFiles #auspol #TheDrumpic.twitter.com/TISFhgr4rw

“The @MacqDictionary irritates me. Can't the wordsmiths come up with words that will be sustained and be in the language and used in 10 years' time?” @CliveCHamilton on #milkshakeduck and #mansplain #TheDrumpic.twitter.com/E7IR4kjRVF

"I hate identity politics, it drives us to our corners. It's stupid. You argue about things you cannot change - your identity - instead of discussing what you have in common" @GrayConnolly #TheDrumpic.twitter.com/93SSRQm20x

“Under the guise of feminism, people are often saying, ‘Let’s liberate Muslim women from the clothes they wear, the places they live, from how they pray’. It’s really not about feminism at all" @lydia_shelly #Islam #TheDrumpic.twitter.com/0kH1rJRQrP

"If Dutton's view on things gains traction, it will mean a large group of Australians will lose faith in the judicial process, the integrity of that process and public institutions in general" @lydia_shelly #auspol #TheDrumpic.twitter.com/6KresQAyZt

"It's an incredibly disrespectful thing to say. There's no basis for that criticism in that harsh manner @PeterDutton_MP has put forward. Our communities are served very well by the magistrates & judges who do a difficult job" @lydia_shelly #auspol #TheDrumpic.twitter.com/eH54A2yXUE

"Please have reasonable, normal, everyday citizens stop getting out of jury duty. Do your duty. When people start doing their jury duty, I will listen to everything else people have to complain about in their legal system" @GrayConnolly #TheDrumpic.twitter.com/Nk4ysG985i

"We are going to have to experience massive human loss, to get the kind of resolve we need to reduce emissions as sharply as the scientists say we must” @CliveCHamilton #climatechange #TheDrumpic.twitter.com/2KsfBBFrHg

“Instead of focusing on the concept of #climatechange, if it’s reframed to be a national security issue or a security issue on a global scale, we will probably see more of a political and cultural change” @lydia_shelly on water scarcity #TheDrumpic.twitter.com/MCKtWUuY7Y

"We actually need to panic. If you live in Cape Town, you're running out of water, panic is probably the appropriate response because that gets governments to act much more quickly" @CliveCHamilton on Cape Town's water crisis #TheDrumpic.twitter.com/ZAAawVHfVR

“I am a strong believer that this is an engineering challenge. We need to develop more ways of supplying water. Don't panic. Sit down, think calmly, plan and build” @GrayConnolly on Cape Town's water supply #TheDrumpic.twitter.com/oqctU6rBBA

"This is bigger than any individual city. This is bigger than any individual. This is a thing which we are all, in our small ways, going to have to confront" @GreenJ on Cape Town's water supply #TheDrumpic.twitter.com/SbnGwFj1WU

“They're saying this is a one-in-100-year crisis, but the predictions by the climate scientists is that it will become a one-in-10-year crisis” @CliveCHamilton on Cape Town water supplies #TheDrumpic.twitter.com/jmgncgaVmq

“If we had a situation in #auspol where all you can contribute is $5000, you will ensure that you will not get Chinese or Russian donors etc. You will clean up the business exponentially” @SamPCrosby on political donations #TheDrumpic.twitter.com/e7VSMYcA1c

“The @LiberalAus has wandered away from its core. When a leader has to fund it, there is something fundamentally wrong w/ the party" Jackie Kelly on Turnbull’s donations #auspol #TheDrumpic.twitter.com/QU6SDLByaX
