While no drug is ever safe to use, and drug use always carries risk, pill testing saves lives by providing festival goers with the information they need to make safer choices.

Quite the backflip from John Pesutto, who has called another party room meeting for the new year to let Moira Deeming back into the party.
“It has become clear that there is now a definite absolutely majority of my colleagues who want this issue resolved with her Readmission.”
Remember when Jeff Kennett called regional Victoria the toenails of Victoria? Well James from Brighton is cut from the same cloth, and doesn’t believe country people should hold leadership positions in our State!
JACLYN SYMES.
The Premier and new Treasurer don’t live in Melbourne.
The State Labor Government is overseeing a massive doubling of the population in our city and the two key decision makers don’t even live here.
We are being run by out-of-towners.
And thank you to @lifebloodau. An absolute delight to meet Kiani again, a very courageous little girl who relies on Victorians to roll up their sleeves for live saving blood products
Thank you Minister for Health @MaryAnneThomas for calling on Victorians to give the gift of life this festive season and donate blood and plasma. We need 4000 Victorians to donate between now and New Years Day to meet Victoria's demand for blood.
Women are gaslit into believing pain is in their mind, while men get treated earlier and with better pain medication, as misogynistic ideas persist in parts of healthcare. https://t.co/OrXfrzbcLq
Today, Labor's pill testing legislation passed Parliament!
Make no mistake, pill testing saves lives.
It will change people’s behaviour by giving them access to the health and harm reduction information they’re asking for.
And It’s needed now more than ever.
Under the guise of State ‘good design’, Labor has announced that developments over three storeys will head straight to the Minister’s desk, bypass the planning system, and lock out communities further.
Karl Marx would be proud.
Labor is for more homes and more opportunities for those who are locked out the housing market - while the Liberals are for self-interest, the status quo and bad luck to everyone else striving to get a roof over their heads - now that’s nasty.
Jacinta Allan’s announcement is such a dud that she is refusing to announce it in public.
Instead, she is holding a secret press conference in a locked up room at the Half Moon Hotel in Church St, Brighton (at 11.30).
The announcement is desperate, it’s nasty, and it will fail.
Do you know the symptoms of mpox? Victoria is experiencing a large mpox outbreak, including cases outside the original at risk groups. If you are sexually active and have symptoms, please get tested as soon as possible.
My pleasure. Thanks to the members of @tsanz_thoracic for your commitment to improving prevention and to better diagnosis, treatment and care for those living with lung disease and all the best for the next three days.
