For many Australians, the idea, purpose and details of the Voice are not yet clear. Political reporter @DanaMorse_ explains what we know about the proposal so far. #abc730

@MgtR1710 @France2023 Think of us in Brisbane at 2.49am! Coming away empty handed.

[Mary Mealey @marymmealey]

Yes @France2023 it’s even worse for those of us in Australia who’ve set our alarms for 2am 😵‍💫#RWC2023

#RWC2023 ticket disaster_too stubborn to admit the system is extremely poor for a international event

The big interest rate rise will hurt a lot of people, forcing tough cuts in household spending. Another sign we need a national housing strategy to address excess housing inflation, market volatility, and the lack of rental affordability #EverybodysHome https://t.co/SXC2cCOUnq

[Mary Mealey @marymmealey]

Real question - why do @ScottMorrisonMP and @AlboMP have to have women nodding approval behind them at (nearly) every press conference? It’s a bad look for everybody, especially given the lengthy timeframes of each doorstop #auspol

[Mary Mealey @marymmealey]

Great interview. Thank you.

“Espionage and foreign interference in fact supplants now terrorism as our nation's principal security concern.” – @MikePBurgess, @ASIOGovAu. #abc730 #auspol

[Mary Mealey @marymmealey]

@TraceySpicer Absolutely agree. My mother in aged care in Brisbane only just boosted. Complete failure by aged care providers and gov agencies all blaming each other.

[Mary Mealey @marymmealey]

I’ve been telling my mother’s #agedcare facility that the delay in their booster program is a tragedy waiting to happen. Today we see 16 DEATHS in Qld, the majority of which are in aged care patients who have not received a booster. What are governments doing about it? #Covid_19

[Mary Mealey @marymmealey]

In the interests of follow-up, my son and his girlfriend got home late this afternoon. Thank you to those working hard on #Covid processes this Christmas.

[Mary Mealey @marymmealey]

Hey @AnnastaciaMP and @YvetteDAth PLEASE suspend all test requirements and let our kids in. My son’s 72 hours is nearly up with NO RESULT, meaning he can’t fly on his scheduled flight today. The whole system needs to be set aside.
This is the #laststraw #COVID19 #qld #auspol

[Mary Mealey @marymmealey]

@AnnMealey @AnnastaciaMP PLEASE DONT LOCK OUR LOST CHILDREN OUT AT CHRISTMAS

[Mary Mealey @marymmealey]

PLEASE Minister @YvetteDAth with the greatest of respect, don’t delay the border opening and lock our children out of the State at Christmas. PLEASE don’t. Many of us are really desperate to see our lost family. PLEASE don’t. #qldpol

[Mary Mealey @marymmealey]

I think #insiders is in danger of losing touch with its origins - getting the views of journalists. The interview segment is now far too long. More insights, less political obfuscation.

[Mary Mealey @marymmealey]

@rachelmealey Sure is
