'I think it is most serious when any minister, but especially a defence minister is the victim of hacking and I do think we need to get to the bottom of this,' Mr Shorten said. Labor leader Bill Shorten said he was worried about the breach of Mr Pyne's account. He has since removed the 'like' on the pornographic image.
The activity on his Twitter account was pointed out on the social media site by other users, including Australians living overseas. 'I was hacked overnight!' Mr Pyne tweeted this morning, saying he had been asleep at 2:00am when the 'like' occurred. Federal Labor wants an investigation into Cabinet minister Christopher Pyne's social media, after he blamed hackers for his Twitter account 'liking' an explicit gay pornographic video.
