Voting Yes for The Voice will make our nation stronger and more united by recognising Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander people in our constitution.
Fantastic turnout at an Adelaide forum @Malarndirri19 & I hosted to discuss the details of The Voice.
Let’s do this, Australia.
#BREAKING The Liberals have now confirmed they won’t be supporting our boost to Safety Net payments in the Budget. They want to raise the Income Free Area despite choosing not to do so when in government. For 77 per cent of people on JobSeeker they don’t report any earnings.
@APalnok Honestly, I don’t care about me.
It’s just such a dangerous precedent to tolerate a victims private data to be weaponised in this manner without any recourse.
PM must step up to escalating #climatecrisis & outline govt's plan to keep Australians safe.
We urgently need:
1. National Climate Risk assessment
2. Mitigation plan, emissions reduced by min #75by35
3. Help communities prepare & adapt

Peter Dutton:
“... um the a-advice that I’ve got ah is that there’s no record in my office of having received a briefing in relation to the matter ah the AFP says ah... that they don’t have any detail of what was provided to me ah and that’s um that’s the facts as I know them.”
I agree with @DavidPocock that it’s time for governments to prioritise future generations over appeasing the fossil fuel industry.
David’s Duty of Care Bill will help tackle the short termism that has plagued our politics

Tony Burke lashes the Coalition’s poor record on wage growth, even by their own predictions & compares with much better wage growth today:
“When you change the policy to deliver wage growth, look what happens! Wages grow!”💥#QT
Building missiles and bombs is described by @Birmo as a “sovereign industry”.
Would be fantastic if we invested in a real sovereign industry, caught up with the rest of the world and invested in high tech, high productivity modular housing. Cheaper homes better than bombs!
Brilliant move: Senator @DavidPocock seeks a 'duty of care' in Australian law that would require governments to consider the impact of climate harm on young people in their decision-making.
How could the @AlboMP government possibly vote against that?

Alleged police sabotage of the Bruce Lehrmann rape prosecution demands proper investigation - https://t.co/67dAMOeORX
The inquiry into alleged police sabotage of the Bruce Lehrmann rape prosecution has the capacity to bring the Australian Federal Police into the biggest crisis of its 43 years, with impacts spreading beyond the contract arrangements by which it delivers policing services to the ACT.
It will put into the spotlight questions of its inherent politicization, its lack of independent relationships with the government of the day, its professionalism, integrity and its ultimate accountability.
It has the capacity to take out two commissioners, both the overall one, Reece Kershaw and the one responsible for ACT policing, Neil Gaughan.
FOR AN HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE FROM THE PENGUIN, who is ALWAYS here to remind us!🙃🙃🙃
“I am buoyed by the upswell of activity for yes across the nation. We are almost at 20,000 volunteers and the numbers are rising rapidly, by the day.”

Let’s call a spade a spade. The ‘no’ camp is running a fear campaign based on lies. These frankly unhinged comments from Hanson are shameful. They will throw whatever disinformation they can to distort the Voice debate. This is what I mean by bad faith. https://t.co/bzpYj6kT9f
How in the grimy-arsed fuck do we live in a world where most life on earth could disappear soon simply because Rupert Murdoch and some of his mega-rich mates were never sent to their rooms as children for being greedy, nasty little fuckheads?
