I’m ecstatic to see Labor delivering on their promise to expand the water trigger to fracking! Communities in the NT have been waiting over 5 years for this, and they’ve been heard. Thank you to Tanya Plibersek 💚🌏 Sarah Hanson-Young Dr Sophie Scamps MP and all those who pushed so hard.

In #Gaza, civilians are being repeatedly and forcibly ordered to move further and further south, but Israel is bombing the entire Strip. Nowhere is safe. Join us in asking governments around the world to pressure Israel to end the siege➡️ msf.org/gaza-stop-now #MustStopNow

Preparing for my talk at a Trauma conference on mild Traumatic Brain Injury ( mTBI) and Intimate Partner Violence ( IPV) and stumbled upon this quote. This is why I will continue to fight, for the women whose lives are taken away from them. Who cannot live their best lives.
