In Collarenebri there are no houses for teachers, doctors, nurses or anyone else. How are rural towns expected to attract workforce if they arrive and there is nowhere to live? How can we keep teachers if they cannot access local healthcare? apple.news/Am3Qx35lIRk-AZ… Anthony Albanese

The Sydney suburbs of Vaucluse vs Mount Druitt ... Great to see an education minister speaking out on health inequalities...so where is the systematic, whole of govt approach to addressing inequalities & bringing health equity to all policies? Mark Butler MP Anthony Albanese Andrew Leigh

Much talk & hand wringing. It is interesting that MPs are demanding a full-time GP clinic in Parliament House. If only there was the same passion for ensuring access to health care for the millions of vulnerable rural Australians who go without. Australian Labor David Pocock

Will US Supreme Court Justice John Roberts join the ranks of those other infamous bygone Chief Justices Melville Fuller and Roger Taney? All he needed to do was to publicly assert that the interests of the people trump the vested interests of its justices. edition.cnn.com/2024/05/23/opi…

Not a great a time to be an OWP. Biden, Trump, Costello, Thomas, Alito, Guiliani etc. It is a reminder that, whatever wisdom we may have accumulated, none of us are unbiased judges of ourselves. afr.com/world/asia/why…

Attended Future of Medicare Symposium today to hear from economist, consumers, policy folk & ministers about reform. It often feels like equity is a third-order issue in Canberra when you deal with the consequence of rural policy failure every day. The forum restored some hope.

Australia has a nuclear power plant. It is located a long way away,has a lifespan of millions of years,does not need waste storage,& there is zero-risk of nuclear accidents. It’s called the Sun. You can access this free energy with a cheap solar panel. theconversation.com/how-would-a-sw…

There are lessons from the first round of Murray Darling Basin compensation. Money without planning support leads to white elephants, not genuine economic adjustment. Healthy Communities Foundation Australia Ltd has shown that funding, linked to community-led planning, can help. Tanya Plibersek

This is a refreshing return to the idea of freedom for all, rather than the freedom of some. The freedom of women to control their bodies. The freedom of trans people to live free of discrimination. The freedom of the poor to have access to free healthcare. Well done.

Oz has a universal healthcare system that currently excludes 30% of Australians & growing; a uni system that excludes the poor; a disability system that excludes people with disabilities; etc. All I hear is a plan to limit universality even more. thesaturdaypaper.com.au/news/politics/… Anthony Albanese

If financial assistance is needed for Rex, the Govt should not just gift taxpayers money to them for investors to benefit from, rather it should take an equity stake. 1/3 #auspol smh.com.au/business/compa…

Why can’t we have joined-up services like this for rural and remote people? Governments invest millions in wrap-around primary and social care services in the cities, why not for rural Australians? theguardian.com/australia-news… #ruralhealth

Rural & remote communities need to get qualified & capable GPs into practice as quickly as possible. Current approaches have not been achieving this goal for a very long time. Change is needed. #ruralhealth racgp.org.au/gp-news/media-… Mark Butler MP Emma McBride MP

Great to catch up with Christopher Tan in Perth who has been doing fantastic work keeping Australians informed about what’s happening in WA for SBS News. It’s great to see that he still has his passion for rural equity! Healthy Communities Foundation Australia Ltd #ruralhealth

Our health system is so fucked that regional communities are relying on the Royal Flying Doctor Service to provide their primary care services. This is a complete & absolute failure of policy from successive governments. #auspol
