Australian Prime Minister rejects link to leak of confidential police submission

Posting this link as a perfect example of politicians employing the 4 horsemen of the infocalyspe to expand police / security powers.

The both parties in Australian politics ultimately support this bill. But the opposite wish to pass it limiting its scope to terrorism offences and child sex offences.

Why child sex offences are included in a bill being loudly promoted as for national security... That alone is a blatant over reach.

But the key issue is: The government is up in arms claiming it’s about “the national security of Australians who face terrorist attacks”. And that the oppositions requests to have the bill limited to terrorism offences is somehow against national security.
