Absolutely appalling that a UN torture prevention body has had to suspend its visit to #Australia citing lack of co-operation from Australian state governments. What kind of message does this send to other governments about cooperation with UN bodies? 🙄 shar.es/afhoFa

The conservative UK government has just abandoned their tax cuts for the rich. Labor must drop their tax cuts for the rich too.

At this year's Senate election, 92.7% of Victorians marked their ballot papers with '1' followed by preferences for other parties above the line. If voters do that at the state election, preferences 2 and beyond will be replaced by the party ticket. Disgraceful. #springst

In the NSW 2022 Budget Estimates it was just revealed that the Government spends $713,940 per year to hold a child in youth detention. It would be cheaper to send them to Harvard.

Newsflash to Minister Rishworth: There’s room in the budget to raise the rate of Jobseeker. Here’s an idea: instead of handing out over $243 billion in Stage 3 tax cuts for the rich, lift all income support payments for people living in poverty. Poverty is a policy choice.

If you're posting photos or screenshots on Twitter, you really should be using ALT text. It's easier than you might expect. Like if I post a screenshot of text, I simply copy and paste that text into the ALT so anyone can read it. Easy. Here's a tutorial. help.twitter.com/en/using-tw…

Folks in low paid work have little power to protect themselves from sexual harassment because the “safety” net leaves us in poverty – you can’t get welfare at all if you quit Keeping us safe from abuse means income support above the poverty line available to anyone who needs it
Last year a @UnitedWorkersOz survey of 306 workers found that 89% of them had experienced sexual harassment working in hospitality, and it is usually gendered. You have a right to be safe at work. If you're experiencing harassment, join your union. adelaidenow.com.au/lifestyle…

Excellent point from @AmyRemeikis on #Insiders - when inflation is low employers say workers don't need a pay rise because inflation is so low, and yet when inflation is high employers say workers can't have a pay rise because it will contribute to rising inflation

The fact that Peter Dutton walked out on the apology to the Stolen Generations tells you everything you need to know about his character and values.

Every MP who claims you can get a nutritional meal for 30p should only be allowed to claim the same on their food expenses.

In your writing, be generous with citations. The cost of citing a marginally relevant paper is low, the cost of omitting a truly relevant paper is high, and one's own assessment of relevance is imperfect. #AcademicTwitter #EconTwitter

When I fell on the way home from my last public talk I did , I was told I would not live out the week. I would not know happiness, marriage, a family of kindness, feel joy and that I would not see a friend again. That was ten years ago this Friday. Please never give up. ❤️
