Employment Minister Michaelia Cash is under pressure to resign after admitting one of her staff alerted the media about Tuesday's raids on Australian Workers' Union offices. Senator Cash repeatedly told Senate Estimates yesterday her office had no role in tipping off the media before the raids happened. But last night, she withdrew that evidence after her senior media adviser confessed to being responsible for alerting journalists.
