Here is a thread of 10 points from the Canterbury Greens submission to the NSW Upper House Committee Inquiry (chaired by @AbigailBoydMLC) into the Sydenham-Bankstown T3 Line Conversion from heavy rail to metro.

45% of flood waters that reach the valley come from catchments that would not be controlled by the dam.

Warragamba Dam: what’s driving the NSW government’s bid to raise the wall? https://t.co/FzNo89REj0

With the cost of living and housing skyrocketing, it's time to provide relief for people by wiping student debt.

If doctors can't afford to bulk bill, we don't have universal healthcare.

Simple as that.

This government has a choice: fund universal healthcare, or let Australia become a user-pays, health-for-the-wealthy system like we see in the USA.

Much of the Australian public, and especially Labor supporters, pretend there has been change, that they have created change, that they have saved lives; choosing to ignore the truth.

"The report said the best way to deal with the issue was to phase out coal, starting with stopping new coal developments and phasing out the gassiest mines while supporting affected workers and communities."

About bloody time. Four years of torture for this family is one of the Morrison government's many crimes.

And an exciting welcome to @ShoebridgeMLC, Penny Allman-Payne, and @BarbaraPocock - I am beyond excited to get started with you all. We’re going to achieve so many wonderful things together for the climate and our communities 💚

When guards snatched Priya, Nades, Kopi & Tharni from their Biloela home, no-one knew where they'd been taken.

Without a phone call from the Tamil Refugee Council, they'd have been forced from Australia to danger.

No-one should go through this again.

Vote Green for Federal ICAC. You know the Morrison government has spun so far to the right when 31 judges look like radicals by comparison.

It’s not just one community that feels ‘taken for granted’ by politics as usual, it’s right across the country. This election remember there is a choice that reflects your values of inclusion, of caring for the planet and each other ⁦@Greens⁩ 💚 https://t.co/bN673kd4sl

Australia has been singled out by Transparency International for ‘systemic failings in tackling public sector corruption’.
Morrison government rorts have gone beyond individual scandals to become something far worse - the strategic wrecking of our system of government:

It’s exciting to see an alternative vision for the country being outlined tonight.

But as you listen to the Labor Leader speak, think about what we could get done if we kick the Libs out AND you put the Greens in balance of power.

We’re now voting on whether or not to send the NSW anti-protest bill to inquiry. As you would for a bill that has such wide-reaching consequences and was drafted in such a hurry! But no, Labor voting with Coalition to keep rushing this through.

[David Shoebridge @DavidShoebridge]

We have just put off this awful attack on protest rights until 10am tomorrow. Thanks to @AbigailBoydMLC @greencate and @MlcHurst and everyone who joined us to fight for the right to protest. See you all tomorrow.

I have just launched the @ASRC1 election campaign and I'm asking you to pledge your support for policies promoting freedom, protection, safety and humanity for refugees and people seeking asylum.
