Surely at least 60,000 from Greg Donnelly alone.
320,000+ words spoken by men over five long days. 😴😒 But only 90,000 by women. 🤔
There's a reason it took us 119yrs to decriminalise abortion in NSW... #NSWpol #ProChoice

History was made last night. After days of debate there is now just one step left to decriminalise abortion in NSW. To @PennySharpemlc @Labor4Choice @OurBodiesChoice + the decades of activists who have got us here - thank you.
Final vote. NSW Abortion Law Reform Bill passes 26-14 the @nsw_upperhouse . 119 years in the making. Decades of feminist activism supported by medical practioners. Tomorrow it faces the final hurdle in the LA. To all who have got us this far. Thank you. #nswpol #VoteProChoiceNSW

Proud to work with these MP's in the Parliament to decriminalise abortion. If you thought MP's can't work together I look forward to showing that we can. #nswpol #voteprochoicensw
The 15 co-sponsors for the NSW abortion decriminalisation bill are from across the political spectrum:
3 x Libs (including health minister)

Woke up at six to let you know abortion could be decriminalised in NSW within the month! buzzfeed.com/ginarushton/nsw…

Excellent work @tanya_plibersek @EMILYsListAus & @Labor4Choice & the Labor feminists that have been part of the campaign for women's reproductive rights for many decades.
Australian women will have cheaper contraception and better access to abortion if Labor wins the forthcoming Federal election, according to a plan released today by the party.

Hey @Mamamia abortion was literally decriminalised in Queensland in October. You have a huge audience and a responsibility to stop spreading misinformation about abortion.

A general resolution just passed at the #LabConf18 committing the party to work towards legal, safe, affordable and accessible abortion in all states and territories.

Since last National Conference, Labor state and territory governments have made significant progress improving access to reproductive health care across Australia.
A Shorten Labor Government will work to improve the accessibility, legality and affordability of terminations.

A health system for all - that’s Labor’s vision.
A health system that’s truly universal, affordable, accessible and equitable.
It was a great pleasure to introduce the health chapter of Labor’s platform at ALP National Conference this morning.

Good morning Adelaide last day of #LabConf18 lots achieved. Health to be debated this morning including great resolution from @Labor4Choice

White Ribbon needs to explain why it’s made a decision to reduce its support for women’s rights.
For me, the right of women to live safely and reproductive choice are both fundamental human rights.

Love seeing our local bridges beaming with purple light to celebrate the passing of our bill to decriminalise abortion.
We’re keeping them lit up right across the weekend so make sure you go check them out 💜 #Qldpol @Labor4ChoiceQld – at Brisbane, Queensland

Angela spoke up about the lack of access to terminations in Tas because she didn’t want anyone else to go through what she did. She lost her job.
Public advocacy changes public policy, it changes law and changes lives. This is a distressing story #politas smh.com.au/national/cricket-…

Our Labor govt will put forward legislation, based on the independent Qld Law Reform Commission's recommendations, that will bring our State’s abortion laws into the 21st century.
I’ve been fighting for this since I was a teenager. I’m incredibly proud of this moment. #qldpol – at Brisbane, Queensland

Disappointed in today’s vote. Women will continue to have to leave our state to access services. Libs who claim to be prochoice such as Rockliff and Hodgman should be ashamed, the standard you walk by. Ferguson was disrespectful but nothing new there.

Today’s debate in parli showed a shameful lack of compassion and understanding from the Health Minister.
Women deserve better.
We will not stop fighting for equitable access to reproductive health services for women in the public health system #politas
