@PaulineHansonOz I lived in the United States in the seventies for two years with my family while my father did a degree at the university of Illinois. It was a wonderful experience for all of us. If universities want the best scholars, they need to be able to cater for their families.
Please watch and make this go viral. During Albanese’s speech my beautiful Lebanese Australian friend, long time Labor member, stood up and walked out of the NSW Labor Conference wearing her Palestinian flag.
What a powerhouse she is ❤️🇵🇸👊
@noplaceforsheep all homelessness is a disaster and should be addressed but it's just not true that older women are the highest cohort of homeless people - young people, men and Aboriginal people are more likely to be affected: https://t.co/fBO5rHmSfa
My video piece for tonight's @abcnews in which I suggest that childcare and kinder be nationalised, and made free. That is, free education should be extended to kids under 5.

@MountainMan6543@newstart_2024 It's quite bizarre where he says that the main beneficiary is the government - surely the main beneficiary is the woman who is no longer dependent on a man for economic security, she has more bargaining power in the relationship and if necessary can leave
@SydneyYIMBY Disgusting - the blithe assumption that young people should live hours away from their parents, friends, community. And grandparents have no real role in grandchildren’s lives.
We call on the NSW Govt to withdraw provisions of proposed anti-protest laws that would limit assembly, restrict expression & increase police powers. Instead there should be cross-community consultation to develop evidence-based policy to ensure a safe, inclusive society for all
Please sign: This petition calls for the prosecution of Australians that have served in the Israeli Occupation Force and for the Australian Government to implement economic sanctions and to cease all trade and commerce with the state of Israel. https://t.co/SkNjTM4CWf
This is genocide previously unimaginable. Israel doesn't stop bombing even for a second. Palestinians wishing to leave Gaza must walk 8-10 KM on a death march, targets for snipers and drones. Should they get to "the south" they will have no water or infrastructure. Israel still prevents aid from enetering the strip, unless meant for the GHF death stations. The "safe area" is also regularly bombed. This is all done overtly, with pride. There is no need for an "invasion" and none for "negotiations" or a "deal". Genocide.
I spoke with a brave Australian, Dr Bianca Webb-Pullman, who is sailing to Gaza aboard the Family Boat alongside Greta Thunberg.
Following the drone strike on her boat, she has a message for her local member, @joshburnsmp. Why not help him hear it?

From today, Australia's largest bank @CommBank will no longer finance any coal, oil or gas producing companies that aren't aligning their plans with a liveable #climate.
RT to tell @ANZ, @Macquarie, @NAB and @Westpac to stop funding new fossil fuels.
