@KocherWilson did you lose your credit card at Mt Buller?

An unprecedented mass relocation of civilians from Mallacoota is underway with two naval vessels (Choules & Sycamore) set to carry 963 passengers to safety at Western Port. Conditions are smoky but fine in Mallacoota today. #TYFYS @DeptDefence @Australian_Navy

It was a great honour today to pay tribute to the service and contribution of our 23rd PM Bob Hawke AC at his memorial service in Sydney. My thanks to the Hawke family for their kind invitation to participate. Thank you Bob.

Vale Bob Hawke. A man who knew how to be popular but who was also brave enough to do unpopular things in the pursuit of what he believed was right. So many reforms happened that way they shaped the modern Australia we have today.

Congratulations to @7CSSBAusArmy LCPL Kate Lutkins, who was named in the 2019 All Australian Squad, but has also been resigned for the 2020 AFLW Season. She demonstrated great leadership on and off the field in her role as Vice-Captain in 2019 season. @brianbearman

Australians stand with all New Zealanders today during this dark time where hate and violence has stolen their peace and innocence. Kia kaha (stay strong).

[Marise Payne @MarisePayne]

Australians are appalled by the horrific shooting in Christchurch. Targeting people in a place of worship is abhorrent and an affront to all. My thoughts are with the victims and their families.

Awesome work @MiniFAB_ what a great way to mark #IWD2019 by helping someone in a practical way. I think most of us can remember being a uni student struggling to make ends meet. A free laptop will make her day! #WomenInSTEM

[SCHOTT MINIFAB @Minifab_]

As part of #IWD2019 and our ongoing commitment to #WomeninSTEM we're delighted to respond to @Engineeringkate request for a free laptop for one of her female @RMIT students who is struggling to fund one on her own.
