Great to vote today! Australia has the best electoral system and most reliable electoral regulator in the world, and we should be proud of it. Now back to handing out how-to-vote cards and then the big party tonight.
The Australian Government has just approved ANOTHER massive giveaway of Australia's gas.
Twice as much gas as we use for electricity in all the eastern Australian states COMBINED will be exported from Santos' Barossa gas project!

Labor’s pay rise for aged care nurses is helping workers pay their bills and helping aged care homes keep valuable staff. That’s what Anika Wells, Zhi Soon and I heard at Holy Spirit Aged Care in Sydney today. Labor is getting wages moving again.
The revelation today that the Tas Gov knows bugger all about the ongoing mass salmon die-off is another classic Tas Gov fiasco. More evidence they are useless & beholden to the salmon industry. #auspol#politas
Rio Tinto has an opportunity to show the market it is a responsible operator by committing to practical strategies to resolve the issues raised by communities affected by its historical and ongoing business activities. https://t.co/Kx5cNz6F8Y
I'd be ashamed of anyone who DID forget who Dutton really is. He's had more than 20 years to show us what sort of person he is, and a few pre-election puff pieces should not deceive us. Especially after having seen it all before with Scott Morrison. #auspol
“We have political leaders who insist that mining and forestry underwrite Australian prosperity,”
“Those who believe this nonsense cannot be trusted with the wellbeing of future generations.”

There is no gas shortage. Oil and gas companies like Woodside and Santos are just selling 80% of Australia's gas overseas – and paying little to no tax while they profit off the back of Australia's resources. https://t.co/tCq9bGrTVq

Very concerning evidence about changing rainfall patterns due to climate change. Huge implications for ecosystems & agriculture.
But the major parties keep pushing fossil fuel expansion 🤯
They need to start listening to scientists & show leadership.
