McClymont, you'd think, would know exactly what she's up against so I expect she'd have her ducks in order: something more solid than anecdotes, and witnesses ready to testify.

If it happens that she's right it puts a certain journo mate of Jones in a dilly of a pickle. He once wrote a story in Stab that ended the career of a photographer accused of doing the very same thing as Jones.

"the law firm Mark O’Brien Legal said in a statement: ‘Our client denies ever having decently assaulted the persons referred to in your letter and your suggestion that he has is scandalous, grossly offensive and seriously defamatory of him.’ ”

Well I don't know about anybody else but my estimation of Jones has just been raised considerably.
I mean, you have to respect that kind of honesty.
Jones is clearly proud of his standards and he's fighting to defend them.

Michaelia Cash has confirmed she was never asked for her version of events before the Albanese Government paid out $2.4 million to Brittany Higgins warning there are now “serious questions” about the compo deal.

Don't really care who has been corrupt, just want to the truth coming out.
When the alleged incident occurred, it was the LNP in govt so I would likely assume it has their finger prints on it as well as AFP.
Is that the same Michaelia Cash who forgot she had a $1.4 million investment property?

The two things police asked Brittany Higgins NOT to do
Senior Constable Sarah Harman told the Federal Court on Friday that she asked Brittany Higgins for two things - her white cocktail dress, and not to delete any photos from that night.

Bruce Lehrmann's barrister suggested to the senior officer that she told Ms Higgins she wanted the dress from the evening of March 22, 2019, and for any photos of that night.

'Yes, that was part of the conversation,' she replied.

The court previously heard that Ms Higgins washed the dress and wore it after that conversation with police.

Ms Higgins' phone was seized by police during the investigation into Mr Lehrmann, but no photos were found.

And, she said she deleted photos.
