@__BreadMaker__@KirralieS@salltweets It sounds like they personally included the Muslim woman because there’s little to do and her husband had passed. Or is it Men’s Shed Policy now to accept anyone ?
A 17 year old girl from a low income background in Thailand is not a sex “worker” she’s a victim of prostitution and economic exploitation. Full stop. Rural to city trafficking pipeline often targets girls as young as 13–15. This middle aged Australian man murdered a child.
Good News! Media Watch has just run a segment on the ABC’s refusal to publish Sall Grover’s opinion piece, the very same issue raised in the two letters published today on our site.
This shows that public pressure and formal complaints are being noticed. However, it also highlights ongoing problems with the ABC’s handling of women’s rights and free speech.
Will the ABC now take real action on impartiality, or will this just be another token segment? We’ll be watching closely.

Thanks to the work of @aawaaadvocacy, the dishonesty & lack of credibility of @AusHumanRights around the SDA & seeking costs from us in the Federal Court is on public record. Just months earlier they led a campaign to reform the cost rules under discrimination law yet didn't want them applied to us and were prepared to bankrupt us. Your Court Submission literally says "the appeal should be dismissed with costs." These are not good optics, @HughdeKretser
Do give @aawaaadvocacy a follow and check out their work: https://t.co/OJr9NfBcDG
This is what the internet was invented for
In 1996, a King Penguin named Lala became a local celebrity in Shibushi, Japan. After being rescued from a fishing net by the Nishimoto family, he refused to return to the wild.
He lived in an air-conditioned room in their home and was famous for walking alone to the fish market wearing a tiny backpack.
The fishmonger would feed him a fresh fish and place another in his bag for the trip home.
I’m beginning to really dislike the word “platform”. If you talk to someone, it seems, you are “platforming” them. If you speak at the same venue, you are “platforming” them. If a journalist is doing their job by interviewing someone, they are “platforming” them. A democratic society must have civil discussion and debate between often competing viewpoints. To deny this is to attack a very basic component of democracy.
@SuzyMcCarley@sappholives83 Blaming women for the actions of men is so weak + lazy. Female empathy was manipulated by these men. Empathy + kindness are basically womens super powers. Without it humanity wouldn't have made it out of the caves.
@Andrew73512711@saint_witch_ You sound bitter. Did your ex wife get paid for her unpaid labour in the divorce settlement ? Hope she took you to the cleaners you nasty man.
