A-G Mark Dreyfus endorses the AFP hunting the Wilkinson-Higgins tape whistleblower.
Journalism often involves telling stories that upset and discomfort those in power.”

If the left didn’t have double standards they would have none at all.
Australia is such a tiny place, the ruling class even tinier. Favours abound.

I don’t think we realised just how corrupt and insane gen-x were going to be once power shifted from boomers and they took the reins. Then again the proudly nihilistic atheist generation have no reason to not be.
Remains to be seen how Greypus will handle the upset and discomfort of an anti-corruption scrutiny of his handling of the Briggins settlement.

Boomers: 1 Jan 1941 – n31 Dec 1970.
Late Boomers are still in the saddle [just].
Those generation definitions are meaningless, the dates keep changing but generally boomers usually stop at 65. https://www.mentalfloss.com/article/533632/new-guidelines-redefine-birth-years-millennials-gen-x-and-post-millennials

Hence, the Baby Boomer generation.
Gorton, Whitlam, Fraser, Hawke, and Howard were from the 1911 to 1940 generation.

A generation isn’t 18 years.
That’s nuts.
Nut Case claims something he disagrees with is nuts.
Pot, meet kettle.
Ed, why do you persist with the pathetic, low-energy trolling? Your not being controversial, you’re being daft. You’re not playing devil’s advocate and provoking introspection and thought, you’re being obtuse.

Asking for a friend, does ed stand for erectile dysfunction?
I can’t believe anyone could be silly enough to believe a Generation could come and be gone in 18 years.
Well show us a reference that backs up your assertion Ed, it’s not hard…https://www.abbreviations.com/ED

It would be easy for you to win this argument. Just link to a reliable source for your definition of “generation”. Something more reliable than the ABS.
Can you, or are you still making things up?
