#uonstrike great turnout from staff striking at University of Newcastle today. Staff need job security, manageable workloads, fair pay and better casuals rights to deliver the quality education students deserve! #betterunis
The time MPs have together in parliament is precious. It is expensive.
The public should trust that we use this time effectively, productively & responsibly. They deserve better than the time wasted in Question Time currently.
Happy to 2nd @zdaniel motion to improve QT:
This video shows brilliantly why a government giving money to people who need it, is doing so much more for the general economy than giving it to billionaires in tax cuts.
Whether through a Royal Commission, or a Parliamentary Inquiry, it is high time for a proper examination of corporatised #University governance in Australia, as a prelude to real reform.

Reflecting back on the US news this week, I'm reminded that we need talk more about the benefits of climate solutions. This problem is about the world we are trying to create, not just the world we are trying to avoid, or the one we are leaving behind.
This is where we are, and where we will be. This is why adaptation to #climatechange is crucial - heat kills, particularly in places (like the UK) that aren’t ‘used’ to it, and aren’t adapted to it. This is our reality and we need to prepare for it. #ClimateCrisis#ClimateAction
@annieapps42 & I are keen to encourage MBA, JD, LLB, MEL, MHRL & LLM students @Uni_Newcastle to consider enrolling in 'LAWS6108 Corporate Power and Corporate Accountability'. We've put together this video that explains what the course is all about - https://t.co/TXyl8qWB8e
@MrKRudd Surely this is Sky News' attempt at self-deprecating humour (perhaps an especially uncompelling attempt at political satire?) - bedwetting about bedwetters is too much! 🌊🛏️😂
Dear @MarkDreyfusQCMP,
As our incoming Attorney General, please move to end the prosecution of #BernardCollaery, on the grounds that its continuation fails to pass the ‘public interest test’.
Many thanks,
A concerned Australian.

‘Dishonest’: Morrison government wanted IPCC to say Great Barrier Reef ‘not yet in crisis’. Story from @adamlmorton and @readfearn https://t.co/yOBo6nzfzh
@steve_mcdee @NeilJamesFoster@HighCourtTrivia There is a note in Menzies J's biography in the Oxford Companion to the High Court that His Honour experienced "a severe cardiac illness within one year of his appointment [in 1958]" and suggests that might have impacted his early years on the Court; so illness seems plausible?
