Hardly surprising to see such complacency, looking at who else is in charge in this country. But it’s pretty galling seeing 10 million citizens dutifully following the pandemic rules for months at a time, shuttering their lives etc, while the standard for our leaders is “whatevs”

Never forget: the Daily Tele tried to launder her reputation rather than hold her to account

Remember too that the Berejiklian government cut millions in funding from to the ICAC and other accountability agencies. Seems… relevant.

I'm old enough to remember a time when, if politicians resigned under a cloud of corruption, opponents and journalists didn't congratulate them.

@NickFeik Accordoing to LNP - Corruption: It's not wrong unless you get caught, and even then...

@newsbreak54321 Totally

@NickFeik And the 'woman wronged in love' angle really stuck with some people. She was the most powerful person in NSW. She's obviously very intelligent. It's laughable that she had no agency

@MediaAnalystOz That reputation laundering was courtesy of News Corp, let’s not forget

@NickFeik General narrative: just a bit of pork barrelling. Everyone does it. Best premier ever. 🤦‍♀️

@NickFeik Everybody really saying "We all do it!"

@NickFeik Since most of the MSM turned a blind eye to the shenanigans in the NSW coalition, it's hardly going to stir them up now. Rowland is patting himself on the back, but corruption is just a piece of the damage Berejiklian's govt did to the people, the fauna, & flora, of NSW.

@NickFeik That’s possibly why she thought she’d be safe. It’s certainly kept her safe for the best part of a year. But then she was lucky, Barilaro was having his issues and Perrottet wasn’t looking too clean either. The need for continuity during the pandemic can’t be ignored of course.

@NickFeik Sure is. This is the person who brazenly said 'obscene pork barrelling - yeah? So what?' I can't believe how she is now being lauded.

@NickFeik Shocking that a Premier should even face the suggestion that they 'encouraged the occurrence of corrupt conduct'.

@NickFeik @SallyRMelb It’s possible to acknowledge that the resignation had to happen, and that the alternative is worse than Gladys, and bad news for NSW.

@NickFeik Tanya Plibersek just tweeting a farewell congratulations to Gladys for her wonderful work during Covid really has me scratching my head. WTAF

@NickFeik The slow burn to complete complacency via the media is almost there.

@NickFeik What's a few koalas and a couple of states in lockdown compared to the pursuit of love, hey?

@NickFeik I'm afraid it appears to have been normalised.
