“Transparent meetings, published pay benchmarks and a real say for staff and students on council are not radical asks. They are the basics of good governance.”

Under a Binface government, anyone who doesn’t accept human-made climate change as fact will be sent back to school, from Year 1 right the way to A Levels, to see if anything goes in the second time round. #VoteBinface

It will be an utter disaster if Labor sells off Melbourne Water - once again leaving Victorians paying more for a worse service, just like every other public service Labor's sold in their privatisation frenzy of the past decade. https://t.co/9Tu1rP0KYh

Labor saddles the country with highly enriched nuclear waste makes Australia a nuclear target, cuddles up to Trump, puts militarism before hospitals, abandons our sovereignty, builds public housing for US marines and welcomes US nuclear armed subs and bombers. It is sickening!

Pauline Hanson’s domestic violence comments were no stumble
The One Nation leader has allied herself with men’s rights activists for years, consistently suggesting women routinely make false allegations of violence

Teachers and education support staff are fed up with being ignored by Labor.

They’re demanding better and the Greens are standing right there with them ✊💚

We recommend the bill be amended to provide a direct statutory right of access to 𝗮𝗻 𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗽𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗰𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗹𝗶𝗮𝗻-𝗹𝗲𝗱, 𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿-𝗯𝗮𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗱 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗶𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻.

"The provision creates a risk that journalists, trade unions, civil society organisations, human rights defenders & the public could be accused of causing disaffection merely for criticising police conduct, exposing misconduct or advocating for police reform."

[Malala Yousafzai @Malala]

The EU has invited Taliban officials to Brussels to discuss a migration deal — and today I am shaken and deeply disturbed by this.

This is the same Taliban that banned girls from secondary schools and forced them into marriage. The same Taliban that, earlier this month, arrested dozens of women in Herat for how they were dressed. The same Taliban that detains, beats and executes women who dare to speak out or break their rules.

Through its system of gender apartheid, the Taliban have erased women and girls from public life. Europe must not legitimise a regime responsible for one of the worst human rights crises in the world.

Any engagement with the Taliban must begin and end with the rights of Afghan women and girls.

[Australia Institute @TheAusInstitute]

“The Albanese Government has been fooled by crocodile tears from management consultants, forgiving PwC for its abuse of government information and only banning KPMG from new work for three months,” said Bill Browne, The Australia Institute.

This is possibly the saddest thing I've seen in a long time..an immigrant nurse talking about fleeing her home..she saved her UNIFORM. So she could still WORK for our communities.

I'd fill this country with a thousand of this woman than one of those good for nothing thugs.
God help this poor woman.

[Barbara Pocock @BarbaraPocock]

KPMG show us who they are - despite PwC’s masterclass in how not to behave & coverup. Labor has failed to act & this is now on them: to end Big 4 special treatment – on tax, reporting, liability, whistleblowing. Get unethical greed out of govt contracting. Time to break them up.

[Ellen Sandell @ellensandell]

Did you know that politicians get free public transport year round?

In the 2 months it was free for ALL Victorians, daily trips increased by 20%!

We can turn the Myki readers off again & make free PT permanent. We just need to make big corporations pay their fair share of tax.

[ITUC @ituc]

The ITUC welcomes the Advisory Opinion of the International Court of Justice, confirming that the right to strike is protected under International Labour Organization Convention No. 87 on Freedom of Association and Protection of the Right to Organise.

🗣️ “We thank the world court for this advisory opinion. The Court has confirmed that international law supports the longstanding understanding shared not only by unions, but across large parts of the ILO system for decades." @luc_triangle ITUC General Secretary

100's of jobs cut at CSIRO when it has never been more important for govts to invest in science & research. Why can Labor find $$ for AUKUS but not our nation’s premier science, industry & research org? The Greens implore the Albanese government to commit funding & prevent cuts.
