In this video I explained how “The Handmaid's Tale” fiction is our reality in Iran. I was angry that our oppressive regime was elected for UN’s women’s rights body. I wish #MahsaAmini was alive to see that finally the world is hearing Iranian women.

This takes me back to my Catholic upbringing when I'd turn myself inside out to get changed in the pool changerooms without anyone seeing a glimpse of flesh! You have to take your clothes off to change - how ridiculous smh.com.au/national/nsw/t…

How about airlines using decent sized seats? I'm an average sized person and the last Virgin flight I went on had very narrow and squished seating - ridiculous. theguardian.com/business/2023/…

For the 3rd time in 12 months one of my kids has caught COVID at school - their classrooms are poorly ventilated, windows bolted shut in the 2nd story classrooms, no air purifiers, no-one wears masks. Why are we so worried about vaping but so complacent about COVID?

Stan Grant is an admired colleague. The abuse directed at him is disgusting. There are no words adequate to the horror we feel at this. Stan is brilliant and cherished.

Just awful that a journalist of Stan Grant's talent and integrity is driven out of an important role by thin-skinned keyboard warriors theguardian.com/australia-news…

Blackfullas endure workplace racial violence on the daily. Colleagues turn a blind eye & say 'we didn't know' or 'there was nothing they could do' Stan Grant quits the ABC’s Q+A, saying racist abuse ‘poisons the air I breathe’ smh.com.au/culture/tv-and…

I’m saddened and frankly embarrassed that my home state, the state of Dunstan’s progressive social democracy, is legislating draconian anti-protest laws. The nation’s toughest. And, it’s being done by a Labor gov. SA used to lead on social reform. This is an overreaction. SA Labor

Reading this makes me feel sick. What hope have at-risk young people got when they are constantly hounded even when efforts are being made to transform their lives ? theguardian.com/australia-news…

Totally agree. It's time for a wholescale change of Australian names. Let's celebrate meaningful First Nations place names. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Juanita Phillips One of the ABC’s finest. Juanita has been a fantastic asset to the ABC. Maybe she represents a slowly disappearing era as the ABC goes digital. Wishing you well, Juanita, and congratulations on a splendid career.
