FOI reveals the extent to which the Coalition was prepared to go on #SportsRorts. The released colour-coded spreadsheets show Bridget McKenzie's office was the centre of the scheme seeking to expand it from $30m to $100m in marginal & target seats. #auspol https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2024/apr/09/bridget-mckenzies-office-wanted-sports-rorts-funding-tripled-after-consultation-with-mps-and-senators-documents-confirm

Right-wing 'journalist' Peter Stefanovic, the dumbest of the two Stefanovic brothers, lets Bridget #SportsRorts McKenzie waffle on about 'criminals' while shutting down Zali Steggal's fact-checking.

#NACC is coming Bridget.

Lashing with a spreadsheet. Who's idea was it to include Senator Bridget McKenzie in a sports inquiry? Hers. She's still the Nats leader in the Senate. #SportsRorts #auspol https://www.news.com.au/sport/commonwealth-games/appalling-disrespect-ey-partners-lashed-in-commonwealth-games-senate-probe/news-story/619f0942b8f37c4642d0ca7b22384e35

F Me The #ABC giving the Senator for #SportsRorts a platform for the #LNP to the Queensland and Federal Labor governments a free unchallenged whack over the Commonwealth and Olympic Games “go slow” decision by the #PM. Seriously #ABCTV should be rebranded #NewsCorpseLite #Auspol

Sports Minister and federal Qld Labor MP for Lilley, Anika Wells, announcing the Play Our Way program. Better than the #SportsRorts regime of the previous government. Let's fix all the problems around Australia for sportswomen & sportsgirls. #auspol https://twitter.com/Qldaah/status/1692693578248810928

Peter Dutton's interpretation of the Matildas true legacy is more #SportsRorts with a $250 million promise if he becomes prime minister. #auspol

Instead of Matildas Day, Peter Dutton suggests a few games of #SportsRorts with him as captain where he has pick of the best players, exclusive use of the new equipment & girls can't play. #auspol

Peter Dutton is opposed to Matildas Day but suggests a friendly, $250 million round or two of #SportsRorts instead. Bridget McKenzie will supply the spreadsheet. #auspol https://7news.com.au/video/sunrise/peter-dutton-opposes-matildas-public-holiday-while-pledging-more-sport-funding-bc-6333515285112

“The sports rorts saga and a ‘stench’ that clung to the Coalition”

Don’t ever forget the #LNP strenuously defended #SportsRorts saying it was legal, there was nothing wrong with it and that’s how you do politics. Given half a chance they will be at it again.

While mum was down, she was telling me about her little croquet club in Tweed Heads. It's struggling to exist as members are all in their 70's, and they receive little or no funding from the state or federal governments.

They have a leaky asbestos roof, broken furniture, they can't even afford to replace their printer. Then we look at #SportsRorts and we can see how corrupt Australian governments have become #auspol

Not Satire. I repeat: not satire!

I'd be more worried about a Federal ICAC (NIC) with retrospective powers, Bridge. Crime's crime, you know ...
