Amazing business & an amazing couple. Buy local. They are the best eggs!
The future of artisan food is great especially when you meet a family like Mandy & Wes at WesEggs north of Geelong An enterprising couple with four young children who are juggling farming, family & growing their free range eggs business

'Being a refugee is not a choice'.
During #RefugeeWeek, we ask you to raise awareness of the issues affecting refugees and celebrate the immense courage, resilience and valuable contributions made by refugees to Australian society.

The human suffering on Manus Island is a direct result of the Australian Govt policy. After 6 years the refugees left there are well beyond breaking point. No reasonable person could accept the continued detention of these innocent and ill people. They have suffered enough.
Funny how the timeframe has pushed out since the election promises!
A new plan to deliver fast rail to Geelong and other regional cities has been released, and the councils behind it say it can be achieved within the next seven years bit.ly/2ETNMnZ

“How many murderers, rapists and paedophiles are we talking about?”
Waleed and the PM discuss the rhetoric surrounding asylum seekers and the exact numbers regarding security concerns. #auspol #TheProjectTV
Embarrassing that we get excited about a so called fast train at 132kph from Geelong. Less than half the speed of trains in China & most countries in Asia. We are about 20 years behind. But every extra Kph helps. Hopefully the buses are as fast!!

Today @GreaterGeelong Community has overwhelmingly shown its love & respect for our #Islamic Brothers&Sisters #GeelongMosque #LovingGeelong – at Geelong, Victoria
We are one community. Will this finally sink in with our Government or will nothing change? Sad & outraged
“You’ll have to forgive me, these won’t be my best words...”
On this heartbreaking day, Waleed reflects and calls for unity. #TheProjectTV

Not sure how children taking one day off school take being berated by ministers who will have sat in Parliament for just 10 days in five months.

Racists are the problem.
Not immigrants or refugees.
Hate threatens our way of life.
Not Muslims.
Bigotry makes our streets unsafe.
Not our local mosque
We must stand for love, inclusion and equality for all now or perish in the hubris of white supremacy. #Christchurch

"It was deeply upsetting to meet families who have only known statelessness and persecution."
Angelina Jolie meets Rohingya refugees who fled persecution and death in Myanmar. Families told the UNHCR Special Envoy that they'd been "treated like cattle" their whole lives.
