Yes @smitchellmlc the best place for kids to be is in the classroom learning. Not in the quad. Not in the library under minimal supervision. Not up the back of another teacher’s classroom working from a split workbook. That’s why we’re taking action. #morethanthanks

Eurobodalla Shire Council mayor @mathewhatcher is sending letters to non-resident ratepayers asking them to rent out their holiday homes to help with the huge housing shortage on the South Coast - looking at you Canberra and Sydney residents.

Fingers and toes now, @pocockdavid. (And preferences.)
G’day, @AlboMP and the @AustralianLabor team. Congratulations. Let’s get cracking. It won’t take three years to prioritise the planet, people, and the economy. They’re not mutually exclusive. We can do this. #AusVotes2022
Priya, Nades & their QLD-born girls belong in Biloela where they're welcome, wanted and needed, but politicians are stopping the family going home to Bilo by withholding a visa from 4yo Tharni. Can you help get this QLD family #hometobilo now? hometobilo.good.do/hometobil…

Keep going, @petajan. That was awesome today. Thank you.
My response to the Morrison government's announcement that their response to women fleeing domestic violence is they can access their retirement savings!! (Yes, I got angry about this one) #auspol
Anger + action + direction = change. Speak up; there are generations of women here to support you. #walk4justice #BrittanyHiggins – at Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

Hewson: I pine for the days, as it was told to me, when a minister of a major govt department took the responsibility of govt seriously, saying to the secretary of that dept, on a very challenging issue – “Your job is to get the policy right, mine is to explain it and sell it”

There is a greater sense of male entitlement in Australia's parliament than in any workplace I have seen. Parliament is a place where Scott Morrison and his men think they can act with impunity and outside of the intention of the law. theguardian.com/commentisfre…

As a rape survivor this past week has been hard. The ‘Scott the Dad Takes His Family to the Beach ™️’ thing has done me in. Nothing will be done about anything. It’s all spin. My rapist got away with it in the 80s. This one will too

I don’t know how I missed this cracking @gregmlarsen piece but it is everything. I just read the whole thing out loud to my husband - between convulsions of hysteric laughter - and don’t even regret I will now struggle to sleep. It’s so bang on. theshot.net.au/general-news/…

I make no comment about the content but why, oh why do we persist in pitting high achieving women against one another? These two are not in competition. It is possible for them both to be good at their job. Women are not in a perpetual race to be ‘top woman’!

A First Nations Voice to parliament—or even politicians simply listening to Indigenous people—would never have let this happen.
We, like you, are angry and disappointed that the Morrison Government, with the support of One Nation, and the absence of @Stirling_G, was able to ram laws through the Senate at midnight last night to continue the punitive, racist and harmful #CashlessDebitCard in our communities
Priorities, Australia.
Four women and a child have been killed this week. An AFL player bashed a woman with a belt and was fined $5,000 with no criminal conviction. Yet our government’s biggest focus this week has been seeking an apology for an offensive cartoon by another country. #16Days
Sharing the inspiration from @IbrahimomerNZ. How much we can all learn!
New Zealand's first African MP gave a powerful and emotional maiden speech in Parliament as he recounted his escape from Eritrea.

At the time, this was a routine political moment. Now I find it quite moving teapawt.net/adamhamdy/status/13241…
