Prime Minister ScottMorrisonMP: To all of you out there who have been a victim of child sex abuse, know we are thinking of you. You are not alone, we know it happened and we are there with you. More: thekennyreport

Cardinal George Pell will spend his first night in prison on Wednesday after withdrawing his bail application during his pre-sentencing hearing.

Cardinal Pell arrived at the County Court in Melbourne for a pre-sentencing hearing on Wednesday after he was found guilty of five counts of historical child sexual assault. Pell, Australia's most senior Catholic, was convicted on December 11 last year, following a lengthy trial. The 77-year-old has lodged an appeal against his conviction and has strenuously denied all allegations against him.

ScottMorrisonMP really ... WOW thinking of me .... shame I had to be sexually abused as a child for that to happen .... auspol

political_alert ScottMorrisonMP ... on the same day that TonyAbbottMHR called pedophile Pell to comfort him..

ScottMorrisonMP I, for one, don't believe you.

ScottMorrisonMP And did you support PM Gillard when she instituted the Royal Commission into Institutional Child Sexual Abuse?

ScottMorrisonMP Unthinkable to see John Howard provided character reference for the evil paedophile priest. He is very ignorant.

ScottMorrisonMP How about Houston... You know your mentor?

ScottMorrisonMP I was sexually assaulted by a homosexual, and there are a 100 times as many out there now as there were back then.

ScottMorrisonMP Crocodile tears and sympathy from a PM who doesn’t care at all. auspol

ScottMorrisonMP Look out, is that another rare sighting of Priceless female Plain Red Shrike sneaking silently into the photo on the left? Last sighting had it asleep.

ScottMorrisonMP I am “appalled” but not shocked at the bullying, the obscene abuse and the lies about Pell. Can’t blame Morrison for his cowardice because he knows he will cop the same if he shows character and condemns this bullying of George Pell.

news_australian ScottMorrisonMP How many decades has the people's union, the Church, been blackmailed?

news_australian ScottMorrisonMP Anyone smell an election.

ScottMorrisonMP There for you, protecting and covering for those who have a thing for red shoes...👟👟👟👟👟👟👟👠

James_Jeffrey ScottMorrisonMP Yes you have watered down the redress scheme that the RC recommend. So your reason for this is to save the churches money . The difference between victims is a crime . Because you haven’t had any penetration you can only get 50k otherwise you can get 150k

ScottMorrisonMP What does he think of John Howard providing a character reference for a vile peadophile?

ScottMorrisonMP Does that include the victims of Brian Houston’s father. Didn’t Brian Houston say it was their fault auspol

chriskkenny ScottMorrisonMP He supports HIllsong, where known paedophiles have a home.

ScottMorrisonMP The fact that the Catholic Church is able to continue in its current form is a disgrace to our society, child abuse is in the DNA of this org. As Sam Harris says 'the ideology of this organization acts as a filter attracting sexually confused and conflicted and conscienceless 1/2

ScottMorrisonMP Your reputation cannot be saved But whoever wrote your statement, kudos to them

ScottMorrisonMP The law will get you!!!!!!

ScottMorrisonMP Remember Australia, none of this - not the RCICSA nor the Pell conviction would've happened - unless Australia had had an atheist PM - who wasn't male and wasn't a member of 'the old boys' club'.auspol Thanks JuliaGillard you were a great PM …..

ScottMorrisonMP Well said.

ScottMorrisonMP The Abbott/Turnbull/Morrison=Liberal/National economic record: record low wages growth, stagnant living standards, falling household savings, disappointing productivity, record high household debt.

ScottMorrisonMP Bolt: Prove it!

ScottMorrisonMP Scomo will say and do anything if he thinks it will help him.

ScottMorrisonMP Obviously,that will increase the atrocities more....

ScottMorrisonMP Scomo you are a criminal whereispriest why did you have AusFedPolice thugs unlawfully detain TheContactZero eliahipriest right before he delivered important evidence to QldPolice yesterday. We warned you we are watching you... and you will be exposed chinahackisfakenews
