This is as sad and as beautiful a thing as I've ever read - Bob Carr's statement on the death of his wife of 50 years, Helena.
Jimmy Carter in 2013 said he met several times with Hamas leadership and they would be willing to accept the existence of Israel -- but Netanyahu was intent on imposing a "one-state solution," which would make negotiations impossible and be "a disaster for Israel"
Don’t know much about cricket, but Adam Zampa has been Australia’s best player in the World Cup but is being crucified by News Corp for not singing the national anthem, suggesting he should be “burned at the stake”. Says everything you need to know about vile News Corp. #auspol

Wiser heads in the ALP must prevail to stop belligerent warmongering speeches.
We are currently incapable of defending ourselves effectively in a conflict with China .

Disgusted by the naive stupidity of the Marles speech!

True story. Of course nothing has changed. #Voice
Thank you, friends, for sending your love & care in this sad time.
Thank you to the many thousands of volunteers for taking action. You were part of an unprecedented movement that will continue on toward justice for First Nations people.
The below statement went out last night.
