For the upcoming council elections in October I'll be standing with a team of community independents and other @SocialistAllnce candidates across Moreland.
Please message either my personal page or the team if you'd like to get involved.
The people of Sydney are facing not one, but five proposed waste incinerators. If built, these incinerators would release dangerous air pollutants and create thousands of tonnes of toxic ash a year https://t.co/eYq8y8kCO8
The main lesson to be drawn from this second wave of COVID-19 in Victoria is that health care must be run as a service to the community. https://t.co/1YEVl3M32J
@hipstergeddon @mel_yuan @sueabolton@brunx3056 Moreland Councillors this week vote to hand over their rubber stamp to its CEO for potentially contentious developments under a new 'scorecard'. Please sign and share this important petition: https://t.co/2LS2iILRl4 via @MegaphoneAU
People often don’t realise that they have lost democratic rights until they need to exercise them. Elected councillors should not vote to give away our democratic rights @SueMorelandteam@sueabolton
@paulinegalvin_@SueMorelandteam@sueabolton I disagree with this outright opposition to Environmental Scorecard which provides design and community benefits as part of developments. Better to build in a fair process for dealing with objections than opposing the Scorecard #morelandcouncil
The majority view on Moreland council is that the only way you can get good development is by giving developers an incentive to build “good” developments. Usually the incentive is reducing the community’s right to have a say.
The Covid-19 pandemic has shown that privatisation and casualisation of care work has resulted in lower standards of care and low pay and no job security for the majority of the workers. This has led to the Covid-19 virus running rampant through parts of the community.
Federal Aged Care has shown itself to be 1) far more interested in the profits of facility owners over care standards for residents, and
2) caught napping on consequences on the staff of pandemic. So no surprises they haven't briefed Cabinet.
Sadly, I am under a 14-day quarantine due to having caught the dreaded virus. There will be a few missing tweets till I’m back on my feet. Do all take care and follow your countries’ guidelines against becoming infected or transmitting it further. Thinking of you all 😘🙏🏻💐
