Tonight I returned to Martin Place where NSW Police have been issuing fines to Pass it on Clothing & other services.

It's freezing & our homeless community deserve access to warm clothing.

The NSW Govt must ensure these homelessness support orgs are supported, not fined.

Fantastic to have Prime Minister Anthony Albanese back in WA so soon.

It’s an opportunity to discuss our great State and how we can work together to deliver for Western Australia.

[Sally Sitou MP @SallySitou]

The long and the short of it is, the Albanese government is just going to be better 😀

[Bill Shorten @billshortenvcuc]

Tonight I was announced as Labor’s first ever dedicated Minister for the NDIS. I will also be Minister for Government Services. It is my great honour to serve people with disability, to defend the NDIS and oversee the Robodebt Royal Commission. Now the hard work begins.

Whoa big swipe at the media from @AlboMP:

“To use a footy analogy, the umpires didn't really … you know … go with us all the time. I say in front of some of those umpires here today.

“But we dealt with that and maybe they don't have as much influence as they think.”

Samantha Maiden talking up Peter Dutton on @ABCthedrum "And he has that Queensland copper sense of humour." I have no idea what that might be but it sounds terrifying not reassuring to me. #auspol #Dutton #TheDrum #LNP

"Where are we heading if this is proven the way to win a seat?" @David_Speers asks the panel🙃

Fails to mention Clive Palmer spent exponentially more in 2019 & 2022 & failed to win a seat

Money proves nothing

Policies do

One thing the Albanese Government does NOT have is a shortage of talent #Insiders

[Sara @swillsm]

“Four major media outlets — News Corp, Nine, ABC and The Guardian — made up over 90 per cent of Insiders guests in the past 12 months, despite only making up 57% of the Canberra press gallery”

Hey @ABCTV and Radio

Request please. Can we give News Ltd journos and commentators a break from your programming and bring in some independent or or other voices please?

That is all. Cheers

Never ever EVER forget this 👇
Pauline Hanson & One Nation wanted to soften Australian gun laws & met with NRA to get $$ & ideas on how

#Uvalde #NRA

Mr Dickson said

I have been in the papers a lot this week, but this one is particularly special to me: the first Noongar-English bilingual edition of The West Australian for Reconciliation Week.

Fiji recognises the importance of education to support its recovery from COVID-19 and future prosperity.

I appreciate hearing from @PremilaKumarMP about ways Australia can support Fiji’s investment in its education.

[Menteri Luar Negeri Republik Indonesia @Menlu_RI]

Had my very first phone call with new Australian Foreign Minister @SenatorWong (27/05). We reaffirmed our commitment to continue strengthening Indonesia – Australia comprehensive strategic partnership 🇮🇩🇦🇺 🤝

Looking forward to meeting you in person, Penny!

Today is National Sorry Day. A day for all to reflect on the forcible removal of the Stolen Generation as we work together towards reconciliation for future generations.

My heartfelt condolences to all those affected by the horrific shootings in Ulvade, Texas.

To the classmates, the parents, the teachers, and to the community changed forever, Australia grieves with you.
