Good to see ASIC on its way back to being the toothless watchpoodle it was reduced to in the Abbott years, which ended up giving us a royal commission into the banks. Its brief period of actually trying to regulate Liberal donors has fortunately come to an end.

Thank you to outgoing Councillor Suetonia Palmer! She has been a strong advocate for equity and inclusion and an inspiration for many @SuetoniaPalmer
