Powerful @4corners on the impoverished children of Phillipines sex tourists and the dna and genealogy research tracing their fathers in Australia and beyond. Amazing work by @MargaretSimons and the Angeles Relief Fund and the international charity Hear their Cries.

Well isn’t North America in for a treat next year: cover reveal for @angeokeeffe’s The Sitter is now online! https://t.co/eypHoH065G

@thebooksdesk @angeokeeffe @UQPbooks Love this book.

For any Australian still uncertain or confused about #TheVoiceToParliament the Uluṟu Statement from the Heart is the founding document. Simple and generous, it lays out the issues and reasons nominated by indigenous Australians after dialogues in 2017: https://t.co/U9CYk8OksT

Informed and thoughtful take from ⁦@MargaretSimons⁩. ‘In my attempts to … speak to voters, I find not hostility to the voice, but a lack of engagement. Many people still haven’t thought about it much, and are reluctant to do so.’ https://t.co/5EdKOz2nO5

@CumpstonEdie Hi Edith, it’s available on kindle and kobo and google play (not sure what that is) and you can also ask for it at your library and if they don’t have it they’ll get it in.

This is just… no words. New Research Shows Over a Third of North American Birds Have Disappeared in the Past 50 Years. https://t.co/OeHhBUwW9D

@kenneally_peter It’s a thought, counting.

@MargaretSimons Thread. You can always unravel later.

@perkinsmiki Congrats @perkinsmiki Another great example of why journalism matters and is worth fighting for.

[Nick McKenzie @Ageinvestigates]

Justice.

[MargaretSimons @MargaretSimons]

Anyone who thinks professional, well resourced journalism no longer matters, or no longer exists, today's verdict in the BRS case is an answer.

@SabineHuynh @livreshebdo @DelphineChaume @Ed_M_Nadeau Brava!

[Kate Cole-Adams @kca111]

But can we just pause to take in what has happened? One of the world’s most powerful media organisations, the Australian arm of which has for generations dominated our political dialogue, has lied to its audience.

[MargaretSimons @MargaretSimons]

Me on this. Rupert Murdoch’s news empire knowingly lied. Can we just pause to take in how extraordinary that is? https://t.co/Ir7qKgkGSQ

‘We don’t have a fantastic track record in preserving the habitability of the planet we’ve got. Our track record has been to make it…less habitable. I’m not sure why we think we’d know how to take a totally uninhabitable planet and make it more habitable. https://t.co/5fJ0JGAvPE

[Kate Cole-Adams @kca111]

Thanks Jo. All we know and all we seem unable/unwilling to do. And I know that I am part of it despite myself.

‘Gripping and compelling… creative audio production woven into an exceptional narrative.’ Very proud to have been part of the small dedicated team that worked so hard to get this important story to air. Yay Richard Baker ⁦@jcarr_catzel⁩ Kyle Hopkins https://t.co/ITriIkCXGq
