The news behind the headlines. Holding those in power in check
Only thing I can say about the events of the weekend, is that it was all a set up.Focusing on a bunch of guys with shaved legs wearing black clothes and waving their arms around is giving the Andrews Regime a free pass on allegations of corruption, the IBAC investigation into the UFU (Operation Richmond), and more.Time to stop looking at what they want us to look at, and focus on what they don't.Want to have a rant, or call me out on something I said?Use the Fifth Estate contact form or send an email to cameron @ thefifth.estateYou can find my public key on keys.openpgp.org

In this episode of the Fifth Estate Podcast, Cameron discusses the following.* Victoria Police not being able to find enough recruits. (Is it really because of the "tightened" job market, or is it because VicPol are a law unto themselves?)* Is Victoria Police testing the water with their Firearm Prohibition Order for someone who isn't in organised crime?* Speed cameras are nothing more than revenue raisers.* Supreme Leader Andrews spells Olivia Newton-John's name wrong on twitter and doesn't correct the post. (Is this acceptable for someone who has a multi-million dollar PR team?)* Victoria's public service wages bill blows out to $35bn.* Should people in the public service be excluded from voting due to a conflict of interest?* Is 78 too old to stand as a candidate for election, like Derryn Hinch will be in November?* Is it time to abolish local government as a paid role, and make it a voluntary position?* How long till Australia's blue and red ensign, and Eureka Stockade Southern Cross flag are listed as "extremist" flags, if they aren't already.

After a little bit of time away, Cameron is back with another episode of the Fifth Estate.Today, he is talking about VicPol apologising to Avi Yemeni, and asks if it is time to get rid of the militarised and policised Victoria Police.Next, is the mandates in Victoria, or lack thereof.And finally, a "notorious vegan activist" has moved from Perth to Melbourne.
