Last night @JasonFalinskiMP said ‘one person can’t change the world’. I’d be surprised if there was 1 person in his electorate that supports drilling for gas off their beaches. why didn’t he vote to stop it? With a govt majority of 1 he could have been the one to stop it for good

@RosieWheen asks: If you had to describe the superpower of civil society, how would you describe it?

Dr Anne Poelina: The ability to be united and organise.

Lanieta Tuimabu: Organisations, for persons with disability, is nothing about us, without us
