Six years of indefinite detention & a complete lack of medical care has destroyed the men on #Manus. They're sick & their bodies are falling apart. Today a man collapsed while simply walking. We're victims of 6yrs torture #auspol#SaveMedevac@drkerrynphelps @KKeneally @NickMcKim

Another woman has died violently. RIP #CaitlinOBrien. Condolences to her friends & family. Another week, another heartbreak. Violence against women & children is a #NationalEmergency I implore our legislators & leaders as well as our entire community to address this scourge #EVAW
Did you know there are ZERO refugees on #Manus convicted of a serious criminal offence.
#Dutton knows this is a FACT but he needs to keep Australians afraid of innocent human beings, how else can he justify such barbaric neglect of sick human beings in need of our protection.
Bob Hawke’s granddaughter wins the memorial legacy speech serving it to every political leader in the room that they are not doing enough to stop climate change. Bold and brave, her Pop would have loved it!

...you can't put a cost on the environment...this is ludicrous short term monetary gain for few. Short term government periods that take zero responsibility for these decisions needs to be taken from them and given over to a citizens assembly
Adani. A couple of issues to watch. How much money will be thrown away on the project; when it will close down bankrupt; and how much will the taxpayers and government have to spend to make good the environmental damage that will be caused?
