We MUST reinvest in public housing.
Both ALP and LNP are letting Australians suffer.

We are a country of mateship and a fair go
Asking for help takes courage.
STOP shaming and blaming.

It's not just online influence.
It's people in powerful roles,
Calling the leader our country a witch,
telling us to be greatful we aren't facing bullets,
siding with nazis to bully transwomen
&
Ignoring women who raised this nation, now tossed into the streets

Meanwhile 3 million Australians live in poverty.
Approx 130,000 Australians are homeless.
5 million Australians have mental health issues with many being unable to access required services - where we’ve seen the consequences of this in the last days.

Both major parties are

We are currently measuring the standard of government by...
You'd be worse off under the others!

Its pathetic, embarrassing and shameful.
What kind of relationship are we in where we are threatening people with a worse option to justify the current option?

We deserve better.

If Australian Labor are so worried about surplus
cut back on the 7 Million spent on persecuting those who stood up for Australia's integrity & the safety and health of future generations.

So glad I was able to catch the
Protect not Punish, Whistleblower prosecutions and Australian journalism Presentation from PEN Melbourne and Centre for Advancing Journalism
Parked on the wrong side of University of Melbourne then had trouble finding the Forum theatre. (Its a huge campus, but bloody gorgeous.) 2..

Great to see the call to make HECS debts easier to pay off gain momentum.

We're now at a quarter of a million signatures.

We are a beautifully diverse country.
And it does/can work.

When elected representatives lead by example with #ethics #empathy #evidence #equality

We deserve better.
We CAN be better.

XD LAW David McBride has sacrificed so much for the safety of future sons and daughters going to serve

He is being persecuted for shining a light on those who hide behind privilege.
And protecting our integrity
This is a major issue which needs to be addressed. #protectwhistleblowers

'Translates to over 10,000 permanent teachers that our schools desperately need.'

We are allowing private business to push the narrative about education.
If we want a strong future.
We MUST invest in affordable, accessible, evidence based education.

The $48-a-week pay boost for a full-time minimum-age worker was entirely eaten up by the $53-a-week rental increase over the same period.

We cannot continue like this. Join your independent movement, or a party like Australian Progressives. Push against the failed politics of the last 4 decades. Demand Better.

So much for the #transparency win 😢. It’s clear Anthony Albanese’s Govt finds great comfort with #secrecy .

I will fight the appeal with the support of Maurice Blackburn, Stephen McDonald, Amanda Sapienza and advocacy partner Grata Fund. 2/2 #FOI #auspol michaelwest.com.au/rex-patrick-wi…
