I’m feeling so unbelievably worried about the mental health of some of my friends in the west. Esp those who battle with turning to the bottle.

Please feel free to share our SOBER IN THE COUNTRY Ltd revamped resources if you know someone struggling.

Yesterday I witnessed first hand suicide prevention in Western NSW…and it’s clear why this graph is like this.

An individual sent home with no assistance, no advice for the family and told despite an attempt on their life there’s no depression.

My heart breaks for our young 💔

Albanese Gov yesterday: here's $940m for a US tech start-up to make a quantum computer.

Albanese Gov today: we can only put $925m over 5yrs towards the national emergency that is men's violence against women.

Genuine question (not trying to start any debates here)

Are people that oppose big utes in the city also against the #cybertruck ?

Pretty clear that thing doesn’t fit in usual car parks, an argument I hear often used against vehicles like the dodge Ram ect.

'... Aboriginal cultural science is strongly rooted in this (holistic systems) sentiment and should be foundational to how we address connectivity within the Northern Basin. Caring for Country means there is a cultural obligation to get water to communities downstream.'

Maryanne Slattery Would love to see that working! There's already some serious competition for dodgiest modelling of the year, but I believe in you, NSW Irrigators' Council !

Heart breaking news that the Barrier Truth is closing after 130 years 💔

If it weren’t for this regional paper giving me a voice all those years ago, my advocacy never would’ve started.

Kate McBride NSW Irrigators' Council 'inflated flow targets that will effectively shut down irrigated agriculture in the northern NSW Basin'.

Has anyone ever heard so much crap? Greedy bastards couldn't fluke the truth.

Thank you Kate for your continued advocacy.

Little emotional reading this report, recognition that not enough is being done and downstream is being dudded.

Our small to medium flows are being extracted upstream. Connectivity should always be considered, not only after months of dry rivers.

Put Jeremy Morton 🌾🐸🐑🦆🚜🐟🐂 and I together in a room for 2 days, you’ll get fire alarms…

Jokes aside, a great few days at the MD Basin Authority Summit, learning from everyone and understanding opposing views.

Agreeing where we can, and disagreeing where we must.

#FOI shows Peter Dutton has not visited Australia’s only nuclear reactor, nor received advice on nuclear power from experts at ANSTO or ARPANSA in the last 5 years. It’s policy without homework, which really means it’s all about politics. #auspol michaelwest.com.au/nuclear-reacto…
