I am so disheartened. I feel I don’t know my country. Or rather that suddenly, I do.

Compare The Pair — #voteyes #Yes23 #traumatroy

Peter Cronau Peter I chaired a parliamentary committee for three years which had Dan Tehan as a member.I can assure you he wasn’t “posing”on #QandA last night.He never had a view unless someone else formulated it for him.

I'd spend more time on Twitter'seX, but I wind up fact checking half of the stuff it shows me.

Killer fact: they commuted Chelsea Manning. Blinken’s offhand dismissal of our concerns amounts to treating us with deep contempt, a client not an ally. Dopes, who will pay untold billions into their shipyards but can’t get a single citizen who exposed war crimes released.

Watching Matildas.

Let me tell you a story about being a sporty woman in Australia today.

And why it’s relevant to the #Matildas win.

This story started when I was 2 years old and my grandpa registered my younger brother for membership of a football club after his birth … but didn’t do this for

Non-Australian - ‘why are they called the Matildas?’
Australian - ‘well you see they’re named after this famous song about a guy who steels a sheep and hides it in a bag and drowns himself instead of getting arrested by the cops…’
