Can’t wait for the media to catch up with fact government changed more than a week ago and start reporting on new government and what it’s doing. All coverage still focussed on opposition. Why?
My cousin asked a question about the NDIS on #qanda, Albo’s answer was cut off by one of Speers MANY interruptions. After the show, she received a call from @AlboMP himself. Thanking her and answering her NDIS questions. No photo ops or cameras just a great human being. #auspol
Even in the context of Covid-19, the WHO has declared climate change the biggest health threat facing humanity. Heatwaves, bushfires and floods demand an emergency response. Mental health anguish and chronic health complications of displacement follow. https://t.co/ylFmqFW9z2
A reminder as petrol, gas & coal prices soar due to a horrible war… the price of the sunshine & wind powering 30% of our grid & all our electric vehicles… hasn’t changed.
It’s still a $0 cost input.
Energy independence comes from renewable abundance.
@stuartrobertmp @PatsKarvelas Scott Morrison couldn't name the price of bread, a litre of petrol and a RAT.
"From the Prime Minister's point of view, if he'd sat there and Jen was with him, she'd be able to rattle off all the prices of all the things they buy."
- @stuartrobertmp, Employment Minister
Omicron changed everything in an instant the PM says today of the summer .. 🤔 Not entirely clear what the living with Covid plan was then if virulent variants were unanticipated #auspol
A quiet reminder that when Justice Kenneth Hayne, head of royal commission into banking misconduct, refused to smile or even shake the hand of the Treasurer during a photo op in 2019, it was not considered the stuff of national calamity.
@TamePunk is making a similar point.
“Grace Tame’s body language says it all. We deserve a Government that respects and hears women.
The 2021 Australian of the Year @tamepunk lives with honesty and integrity. Something we need more of in Canberra.” - Dr Monique Ryan @mon4kooyong#auspol#GraceTame
Over in WA, our thoughts are with the hundreds of families who mourn their dead family members because of the scandalous recklessness with which the Omicron variant has been handled in the east.
We reached 2m cases today. 8% of the whole population have now had COVID. We had everything going for us - an island, Southern Hemisphere, high income, Medicare, high level of community compliance - and we blew it. Well, we didn’t blow it. Our political leaders blew it.
Nades has his forklift license & his old job is waiting for him at the local meatworks in Biloela.
Country towns are crying out for hard workers like Nades. But Mr Morrison's Ministers are STILL stopping his family coming #HometoBilo.Take action https://t.co/3TQhvephVl
