@scorpiolovedeep Getting worse as well.
The Royal Commission into Robo debt started today.
Morrison was warned 2 years before the scheme was implemented that it was in fact illegal.
They went ahead with it anyway.
People died because of Robo Debt and the Government denies this.
My hope is that various decision makers are held to account.
I doubt anything will come of it except recommendations.
Serious cultural problems.
