Sign and share the petition to get Victorian politicians
talking about homelessness.

I believe strongly that we can end homelessness.
If we prioritise it.

Lets be the progressive state
we say we are.
Australian Progressives retweeted
Just like @MurdochCadell now locked up in prison.
Or @Richard_D_Boyle being prosecuted for raising awareness of predatory practices in the tax office.
How will you protect those you are using for clicks? @EmiliaTerzon @ABCaustralia

Its not enough to say we will end fossil fuels
and then not.
Not enough to start building a nuclear plant that will take 15 or more years to get online.
We need to repair the damage done.

When asked at the Zero Waste Festival.
Whats the one thing you want people to walk away with....
What do you think my answer was?
Take a look.
I may have strayed off topic

David is lying to us all. There is only one crime statistic that has increased, and that's domestic and family violence.
We are focused on ending male violence, LNP doesn't give a damn. Choose positive politics, not the politics of fear and smear.
Australian Progressives retweeted
ALP and LNP refuse to recognise the mass suffering happening. A housing crisis that needs drastic action NOW.
As well as a slow investment for the future.
We NEED to increase our minimum stock of publichousing, like what Albo's mum got. >10%
Do it.
Australian Progressives retweeted
Qld Labor is only creating enough social and affordable homes to continue existing stock levels. 53k affordable homes in 20 years means bugger all when 900k total houses need to be built.
Labor is failing us.
Australian Progressives retweeted
In Australia kids are deemed criminally responsible at 10, but social media irresponsible at 14.
Australian Progressives retweeted
We have a chance to bring change in politics for Queensland, but time is running out! Labor and LNP are both failing us, we need positive politics
Australian Progressives retweeted
We won't see a change in politics until we vote for a change in politics.
Vote Progressive.
Australian Progressives retweeted
Don't get me wrong.
I love what charities are doing and the gap they are filling.
I'd just prefer to address the gap and empower people.

This is what violence against women and children looks like in Australia - can we really afford to keep turning a blind eye to femicide and child deaths? Can we?
Just over eight years ago, I put the first names and faces on my project, the Australian Femicide and Child Death Map. Since 2018, I've documented the killing of close to 3000 women and children here in Australia and of Australians lost to violence overseas. Here's
how the Map looks today.
❤️You can view the Australian Femicide & Child Death Map here bit.ly/red-hearts
❤️And see The Memorial to Women and Children Lost to Violence: TheREDHEARTCampaign.org
❤️You can support my work here (but only if you can afford to): australianfemicidewatch.org/…

Homelessness should not be an acceptable outcome in a 1st world country.
If in QLD sign the petition.

Labor may have given up on Truth and Treaty, but we haven't. @AusProgressive fully support @thomasmayo23 and the team from @ulurustatement and commit to the process as they laid out.
“Geoff Scott and Thomas Mayor recognise @bridget_cama in the audience and @DavisAllira for their leadership and the Uluru Dialogue Uluru Youth Leadership who continue to meet & work. They recently held a weekend retreat to reflect on the referendum.” @mdavisqlder
Australian Progressives retweeted
We will push for treaty and truth telling in Queensland, even if we're the only ones to do so. Our federal colleagues at @AusProgressive are the same. Self determination, not colonisation.
This broken promise shows Albanese and the new Minister for Indigenous Australians still refuse to listen to First Peoples.
They’re more interested in listening to Peter Dutton.
Enough lies. They must clearly recommit to a truth-telling commission.

Albo is a great talker. Not so hot on delivery though.
Promised whistleblower protection, then put David McBride in jail!

"If you earn over $180,000 a year, you earn more than 95 out of 100 workers in Australia,
95% of workers earn less than that."
- @ebony_bennett
We need #taxreform which caters and supports the majority.
Vote for those who hear/are the 95%
You are the 95%

Is this the type of politics you want to see, Queensland? Cheap, nasty, personal, dirty attacks have no place in the modern world; that's why we're here to provide positive politics.
Australian Progressives retweeted
This will get much worse under @DavidCrisafulli, and Queensland will be made more unsafe because of it.
Progressives will push to have all 76 recommendations of the Commission of Inquiry into police implemented, especially creating an independent investigation unit.
Ex-officers are “sickened” by footage showing a policeman beating a teen with a baton at a watchhouse.
The ABC has also obtained an internal audit of watchhouses showing in 2019 the service was warned about "deficiencies" re: "human rights considerations" abc.net.au/news/2024-07-11/q…
