In the present context, however, of an investigation into allegations of corrupt conduct, we are not so much concerned with Diceyan theory of ministerial accountability and Cabinet solidarity as with personal obligations of honesty and good faith. Thus, although Mr Morrison may have been responsible to Cabinet for the failings of DSS – in particular for DSS’ failings in not preventing the shortcomings of the NPP and checklist – it by no means necessarily follows that Mr Morrison was personally at fault for not detecting the failings of DSS or that he set out to act dishonestly or in bad faith. The question of any personal shortcoming requires consideration of the system and circumstances of ERC’s operation at the time of its adoption of the NPP.

The passages clearing Morrison of fault are extraordinary

NACC says Morrison is technically "responsible" as cabinet Minister, but not "personally at fault"

If responsibility exists without consequence...then what does "ministerial accountability" even mean anymore?

Pretty crazy how important the blockade of a trade route is right now

If you, or one of your loved ones, are one of those people who likes to eat food, you need to read this story.

Because farmers from Poland to Australia to South Dakota are starting to freak out over the insane spike in fertilizer prices.

Seems relevant - all news organisations, including public broadcasters, don't care what you think about their programs. They only care about your eyeballs. Hatewatching a program is identical to being a fanboi of it. They die when eyeballs stop.

Sue over this but no gen AI usage of their characters.
Any lawyers chime in as to why it would be hard to sue Gen AI companies for using their characters?

love how we killed the old, frail anti-nuke ayatollah just to have him replaced with his young, healthy son who wants nukes and who just had his father, mother, wife, and child murdered on the same day by his mortal enemy. surely this will bring peace to the region

Pauly Walnuts very seriously telling someone that “it’s called Broad daylight because women light up the world”

This is a delight.

@albomp.bsky.social Gov is supporting war with Iran, then they need to be prepared & take responsibility for effects of war. Fuel prices went up, government subsidising transport companies to ensure costs don't get passed onto consumers?
(Not asking about fuel companies because of obv reasons)

Wait, as I'm animation Sequences that you can trigger in the environment?
Yeah, there's a massive amount you can do. With what you've done already with the UI and game feel, looking forward to what you bring next.

So if the US knows Russia is supplying Iran with intelligence that helps it target the US, and the US knows that bombing Iran is increasing Russian oil sales and profits, one has to believe that someone in the US is in the pocket of Russia.

It would have to be someone pretty high up.

@albomp.bsky.social Very good point made below.
We don't get anything of real value with our involvement, at the very least, the pros don't outweigh the cons.

Incredible work

Just wow.....

Are people in USA educated about all the Nazi symbols?
Because I only knew about the swastika growing up, and only learnt about the SS symbol in my 20's. I googled the symbols after planters video, so many....
