“It costs over $1 million every year to lock up a child, and most will continue to reoffend because their basic needs are not being met." - Anne Hollands, National Children's Commissioner humanrights.gov.au/about/news/med….

Mano was 23, he came to Australia as a child. We were meant to protect him. Instead Australian Gov’s left him in limbo for 12 yrs, failed him, stripped away all hope. “Please, stop this limbo for all of our life, we don't want to lose anyone else anymore” abc.net.au/news/2024-08-2…

Dear ABC News, If you're looking for intelligent, informed commentary re Israel's actions in #Gaza, I strongly recommend you report the words of Noam Chomsky. 😠 #IsraeliWarCrimes #GazaGenocide btw #JournalismMatters

A school with underwater cameras in their pool does not need a cent of public money. Not a cent. But here we are - schooling in Australia - where we give them millions in public funding while public schools can’t afford to play interschool sport #StopFundingPrivateSchools #PSSA

You're not kidding Luke! And we can add border control, counter terrorism .... the list goes on and on

Oh great. Bring on the zombie viruses 😳

#ThroughHerEyes The murder of Ugandan Olympian Rebecca Cheptegei at the hands of her boyfriend, got a single line on the news this morning. Let's make more of it here. Another beautiful and talented woman's life snuffed out by violence. #VAWG

I'm sorry; but when you have the RBA Governor happy to see a recession and people being forced to sell their houses in order to get already falling inflation half a per cent lower in a year or two, I think we have a major problem with a so-called independent policy maker.

The myth that publicly funding private schools somehow saves the public money takes a further hammering. smh.com.au/national/victo…
