Just finished #ThePeopleVsRobodebt (late, I know), thought I'd revisit a 2019 Full Story #Robodebt & vulnerability podcast I was in with @australia.theguardian.com. Forgot how smart I sounded & intense those Centrelink calls were 😬

WHERE ARE YOUR HASHTAGS???!!!!

Wow, some amazing people that bought this to light, and took on the Government
And this show highlights just how much damage was caused to the people affected 😡
And still no one has been prosecuted, time to open the sealed section #Robodebt #auspol
The other striking thing about Rick Morton's Mean Streak was the tolerance of really terrible bullying by Malisa Golightly and others in the public service. Hardly conducive to providing safe workplaces. Those poor staff. They should sue.

I was reminded of the horrors of Morrison, Robert and Tudge watching #ThePeopleVsRobodebt. Such dreadful dreadful scumbags. Morrison was such a phony. Just a grifting lying carnival barker.

Rachel Miller is saying this as if somehow, she’s gained insight. Given that we’re still at below poverty levels of support, Compulsory Income Management is still alive and raising debts is happening across govt, nope.
Currently reading this after watching #ThePeopleVsRobodebt. Kathryn Campbell - ugh - what a horrible person.
Rachelle Miller not exactly covering herself in glory in #ThePeopleVsRobodebt. Not a lot of heart.
But Brereton's buddy Kathryn Campbell was FULLY BRIEFED about the scheme's failures, did nothing to stop it, and staff say she lied.
Brereton's dud #NACC has not charged her with anything.
Heinous.
The choice by #ThePeopleVsRobodebt to include such a large volume featuring Rachelle Miller bemoaning all the terrible things "that happened to me" is puzzling. She's sitting quite nicely on a $ubstantial payout and the only wounds she has to lick are outcomes of selfish, irresponsible choices.
Yeah, poor Miller, who received $650,000. Rhys Miller committed suicide, but where is his compensation to his family for his death?

It is so confronting.
The evil that Morrison, Tudge, Roberts did! Just vile fraudsters.
And boneheaded Brereton's 200 staff have done SWEET F*CK ALL about it.
Criminal negligence. Heads must roll.
#ThePeopleVsRobodebt
Watching #ThePeopleVsRobodebt and Kathryn Campbell is just.. something else. Terrifying to contemplate public servants like this and the power they have over ordinary lives.
With #Robodebt again back in the news with the release of the SBS series #ThePeoplevsRobodebt being released, here is my paper exploring how the broader Aus Public Service engaged in learning and meaning-making after this public admin crisis.

It’s a brilliant series. Well done by SBS #ThePeopleVsRobodebt #auspol

Ep2 of #ThePeopleVsRobodebt getting me choked up. All the memories of dealing with Centrelink on Newstart coming flooding back. The gaslighting, jumping through hoops and bullshit, just trying not to starve to death.
I didn't even getta robodebt but the systems of abuse, disregard & stigmatization
As @christopherrudge.bsky.social continued to probe this report to DEWR, he found the AI had also hallucinated a judgement and fake quotes and references from Deanna Amato's Robodebt test case with Vic LegalAid!
The PwC.ppt sequel:

#ThePeopleVSRobodebt #PeopleVSRobodebt
The attitude of Vic Legal Aid - their sense of responsibility, their worry and care - stands in such stark contrast to the cavalier cruelty of Scott Morrison, Alan Tudge, Rachelle Miller, Kathryn Campbell, Stuart Robert, Christian Porter. #thepeoplevsrobodebt
Colleen Taylor wearing the same shirt is a funny move.
I can't say I buy her telling of the warm and fuzzy Centrelink pre-robodebt, that was certainly never my experience with them. #thepeoplevsrobodebt
If I could never hear from Rachelle Miller about robodebt again that would be bloody ideal #thepeoplevsrobodebt
Everyone thinks they're the good guys! There are several people named by the Royal Commission as having done awful things who are still swanning around Canberra university boardrooms telling everyone how they were one of the good ones.

All the trigger warnings apply to
#ThePeopleVSRobodebt. True Australian horror.
Here is an excellent article in @crikey.com.au by @beneltham.bsky.social on the ongoing mutual obligations crisis, and the tribunal decision which is the basis of this analysis:
