@Q2Quokka Famously, during the filibuster vote on the Civil Rights Act, Senator Engle who was dying of brain cancer and couldn’t speak was wheeled in on an ambulance stretcher and he pointed at his eye to signal his Aye vote. 2/2

@Q2Quokka In the Senate, yes.

The Clerk calls the roll and Senators come in and vote (at their leisure) by signalling to the clerk in many different ways.

Some voice it, others use a thumbs down or thumbs up, and I’ve even seen a shake of the head. 1/2

"Taking it to the next level."

The official video from the White House, reposted by Donald Trump, could not be more positive.

A huge congratulations to Labor's newest Member of Parliament, Katelin McInerney, on her win in Kiama tonight.

I want to make clear, we’re proud of the progress we’ve made so far, but our whole Labor team knows there’s still a lot more work ahead.

[Darcy Daley @thedaleyupdate]

Beautiful day in Central Australia.

[Wes Streeting @wesstreeting]

Youngest minister since Gladstone, with the potential to go as far, which I’m sure will attract some commentary.

That commentary should include: sharp mind, excellent judgement, empathetic leader, and one of the nicest people in politics.

[Heidi Alexander MP @Heidi_Labour]

Delighted to welcome @Mather_Keir to @transportgovuk. He joins @simonlightwood and @LordPeterHendy as part of my fantastic ministerial team. Together we will continue to drive forward this Labour government's work to rebuild a transport system Britain can rely on.

The images, the history and colour, posted by the Kingitanga of the Koroneihana this week have been stunning.

Well…

[The Telegraph @Telegraph]

🎤 Dame Andrea Jenkyns entered the Reform UK conference singing a song that she co-wrote called Insomnia and wearing a sparkly blue jumpsuit.

Jenkyns said: “Is this godawful Labour Government giving you sleepless nights and insomnia too?”

@Q2Quokka *clears throat*
“We will not be intimidated by this twink, not now, not ever!”

Good to be home. 🏡☺️

[Anthony Albanese @AlboMP]

On Vietnam Veterans’ Day, we remember and honour every Australian sent to that war in our name, who served in our name.

We mark this day on what is the 59th anniversary of the Battle of Long Tan, our costliest battle of the entire war. Through the steady drumbeat of the years, our respect endures: for the valour, integrity and character of our Vietnam Veterans, and for the truth that all who serve our nation pay a price.

To all who fell and to every veteran who came home forever changed by the weight of what you lived through, we again say the words our nation should have been saying for decades: We honour you, and we thank you.

Lest we forget.

Mariah Carey to @BBCRadio2 on if she’d ever want to go to space:

“I think I’ve done enough”

So, I’m a tad late to the party, but I’ve decided to watch Wentworth.

It may be surprising but I feel most sorry for Vera Bennett. Maybe because I can relate most to her.

To be fair, I’m 6 episodes in and not sure where the character goes so I could regret saying this.
