This week at Parliament you'll find the Young Workers Centre talking to people about the great work we do as a community legal centre. As part of that we support young workers with employment issues, and teach them what their rights are ✊✊✊

Only 10 days until the #VoiceToParliament referendum. We can only win through mass action - & the best way to sway undecided voters is a conversation with a loved one. That’s why I just made my first call for the #MillionCallsForYes campaign! #Yes23 calls.yes23.com.au

The same folks who brought us 'African gangs' hysteria & opposed marriage equality want you to believe that a #VoiceToParliament would be divisive. #VoteYES23Australia #Yes23 #UnionsForYes

BREAKING: The Voice to Parliament referendum date is set for 14 Oct. Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander people are asking us for 2 simple things -constitutional recognition and the right to have a say on issues affecting them. Our answer, of course, should be a resounding YES.

Nastasha spoke to her colleagues about her pay and then was sacked - so big news, we're supporting her to test the new laws that prevent bosses from gagging workers for speaking about their pay. Article by @AdesholaOre theguardian.com/australia-ne…
