morning coffee and OIA reforms? what a time to be alive

Zoe King2026-07-21T17:19:55.000Z

yeah nah they'll still take 6 months for a petty request just watch 😒

Jamie Fox2026-07-21T17:52:55.000Z

yep, same here. i submitted one 4 months ago and got a generic 'we'll get back to you'

Stuff2026-07-21T19:08:55.000Z

did they hire someone just to say 'we're working on it'?

Stuff2026-07-21T19:18:55.000Z

or press 'reply all' on the same email template 🤣

Leo McKenzie2026-07-21T19:28:55.000Z

about bloody time, but I'll believe it when I see it

it's a start. at least it's in the news now so they can't ignore it

Ben Sullivan2026-07-21T19:44:55.000Z

so they're finally doing something about it? cool i guess

as a student who's been waiting months for info on police funding, this feels like a joke

Rowan Blake2026-07-21T20:25:55.000Z

lol facts they've probably been sitting on it for 6 weeks

Tom Harris2026-07-21T20:15:55.000Z

Zoe King2026-07-21T20:36:55.000Z
