The Liberal Party is in meltdown.
But the Liberals can't claim ignorance.
For months they've been warned the anti-abortion and transphobic religious right have been attempting to take over their party. 1/4

BREAKING: Today the Greens are announcing their plan for a pokies-free Victoria.
Since they were introduced in the state 30 years ago, Victorians have lost $66b at the pokies, and we're currently on track for record losses this year.
Enough is enough. 1/3 #SpringSt
After nine years, it’s so good to have a Budget where the Liberals have been kicked to the irrelevant side-lines.

BREAKING: The Victorian Greens are today launching a plan to establish Victoria’s first culturally-specific women’s refuges for women escaping family violence.
As part of our election platform we are pledging $40m towards the establishment of these refuges. 1/3
VicForests is not being effectively regulated by this Government, leaving our native forests at risk of more illegal logging.
We need an independent regulator that has the power to punish illegal logging, or this outlaw org will continue to run riot.

BREAKING: I've just introduced a motion calling on the Victorian Labor Government to immediately reverse its terrible decision to rename Maroondah Hospital.
This is not what Treaty looks like.
It is a disrespectful decision that erases First Nations Woiwurrung language.
Ancient forests still standing in Tasmania but in permanent logging zone & on @jeremyrockliff logging plans with @AlboMP support. End native forest logging. Canopy campers spent the weekend for this 6th annual #BigCanopyCampout in the ancient trees. @bigcanopycamp
Shout out to @DaisyPearce6 for Truth Telling and showing the Country what good allyship looks like. Telling the Truth is how we can begin to understand one another, Treaty is how we heal and mature as a nation.
