The political scientist I am says almost nothing is apolitical. Who gets what, when, where and why? Policies can prioritise maximising the benefits on any combination of outcomes with sensitivity to any population subgroups.

Prof. McLaws cites our low vaccination rate (c.14%) and the latest 9-day delay before NSW lockdown. It has not stopped transmission of the #DeltaVariant. On #MonteCarlo* we need a lockdown to September. #MonteCarloMethod #nswcovid nitter.vloup.ch/ALeighMP/status/…

I'll be blunt, Professor: why should @billbowtell be listened to on this, when the Grim Reaper AIDS campaign he was involved in back in the 1980's marginalised the LGBTI community in Australia for decades? That campaign makes it very hard to trust. abc.net.au/news/2021-05-23/w…

Unfortunately I will never be able to trust a thing this current govt do or say.. they will only consider their Corp donor/fossil fuel mates.. they certainly won’t make any decisions in the interest of the “average” person…
