The Deputy President has just ruled more Liberal questions out of order for being repetitive.
The Liberals are repeating themselves ad nauseum to stop the electoral integrity bill.
Just passed 1am in the Legislative Council.
The Liberals are doing everything they can to stop electoral funding integrity legislation.
Mostly that’s just using AI to generate endless questions.
The attack at Bondi is extremely distressing.
Instead of light, there is darkness.
My thoughts are with everyone affected tonight, especially those in the Jewish community celebrating Chanukah.
The cowardly and hateful arson attack at the East Melbourne Synagogue must be absolutely condemned.
The city shule is a warm and welcoming place.
My thoughts are with Rabbi Gutnick and the entire congregation.
Hate must stop.
Just watched Bandt on 7.30. Few quick thoughts on his 3 excuses:
Excuse 1: Redistribution
Adam himself last year said the change ‘struck a fair and independent balance’. The voters in South Yarra and Prahran knew the Greens; they’d had a Greens MP at a State level for a decade
Excuse 3: Preferences
Labor preferenced the Greens #2.
In 2010 Adam relied on Liberal preferences to get elected (75% of them). Every time since he’s been elected on preferences.
This time was his primary vote fell from 49.6% in 2022 to 40% in 2025.
Peter Dutton is a disgrace and must apologise immediately.
Josh Burns (@joshburnsmp) has been steadfast in his support for the Jewish community, and had his own office vandalised in an antisemitic attack.
Give me a break…
‘When Labor realises the Greens can work with them’
Also Adam Bandt :
My statement on the QLD election 👇
ALT People desperately need help right now. We all want the government to make sure kids aren’t going to school hungry with free school lunches. We want cheaper public transport. We want free GP appointments. And we want to tax coal corporations to pay for it. These are Greens policies that Labor adopted in Queensland, and we know they’d help millions of people. But instead of fighting the LNP, Labor gave up on government and focused on fighting the Greens. If Labor focuses on fighting the Greens, the Liberals get to take over. When Labor realises the Greens can work with them, we can make these positive changes a reality.
Violent attacks on MP offices are reprehensible and must be condemned.
Josh Burns and his team work hard for our local community. They have done nothing to provoke attempted arson on their place of work.
All leaders should stand against violence such as this.

Terrible news out of Israel.
The indiscriminate attacks on Israeli cities and civilians must be condemned.
As Israel rightly defends itself we must stand with its people tonight and join a unified call for an end to this aggression.
Ryan Batchelor retweeted
Australia unequivocally condemns the attacks on Israel by Hamas including indiscriminate rocket fire on cities & civilians.
We call for these attacks to stop & recognise Israel’s right to defend itself.
Australia urges the exercise of restraint & protection of civilian lives.

Latest research from @theMJA highlights e-cigarette use in Aussie teens, suggesting a multi-level approach - from individuals to communities - to stop a new generation getting hooked on nicotine. More on the dangers of vaping at vichealth.vic.gov.au/vaping or via Quitline 13 78 48.
"Our findings indicate that strategies for preventing the uptake and reducing the use of e‐cigarettes by Australian adolescents are needed"

The Liberal Party and Sky News are trying to stop me from telling people I’ll be voting Yes.
It won’t work.
These corflutes were approved and paid for by Parliamentary Services. There’s no breach of any rules.
If you want one too, please contact my office on Monday.

We always work best when we work together.
And finally, we've got a partner in Canberra that believes the same.
Today's investment from @AlboMP means more Victorians will have a roof over their head.
There's nothing more important than that.
And we're getting on with it.

There is a dangerous lack of awareness of the health harms of vaping.
We’re at @scienceworks_mv today, launching a new exhibit raising awareness among young people.
More than 80k young people & families will come through this exhibit in the coming months.
