Almost monthly Dr Monique Ryan MP manages to run a packed townhall event.

Her commitment to community consultation and engagement is outstanding #auspol

I am puzzled

Some days ago I saw a part of a very recent Trump
speech, when he rambled on about Cary Grant in a swimsuit

Then I saw him wittering on about Gettysburg, without uttering a coherent thought

Why are the media not discussing he fact that he has completely lost it ?

Good to see CBD pointing out how Laura Jayes did admirable work talking about her friend Ashlee Good on camera. Despite the Media Watch claims.

I'm a middle aged GP and I'm so cranky about the state of youth mental health supports. Adolescent health is currently about 50% of my job.

The services are dwindling. I have to BEG to get the highest risk young people seen by any public mental health service. 🧵1/3

Thank you for your great work. You could not be more on the money Dr Mariam Tokhi It is deeply frustrating that in the midst of a global youth MH with 50% rise in need that this is the case. Some +ve local changes imminent but scale needs massive boost & federal still reform static.

Our Executive Director Patrick McGorry on The Project overnight.

Beto, not actually running for elected office but out working at grassroots level to get voters registered in Texas. His commitment to loosening the GOP’s dangerous grip on Texas deserves so much respect. It’s never been about personal ambition with him.

The funding of our education system is morally bereft. We are now one of the most segregated education systems in the OECD, yet we continue to lavishly over fund the privileged and chronically underfund the needy. It is an utter disgrace & hobbles us all. theguardian.com/australia-news…

It's time 2 talk schizophrenia care & management. How is it that many diagnosed with sz slip through & out of the monitoring & treatment system? These people need psychiatrists experienced in knowing how 2 manage delusions, paranoia, denial ... The 2 hard basket must not exist.

Climate change & extreme weather events are having 'profound & distressing' impacts on young Aussies.

That’s according to new analysis from the 2023 Mission Australia Youth Survey of more than 19,000 young people in Australia 🧵

Great to have you on board IAYMH

One of us is more awake for an 05.30am meeting :) Excited to be involved in bringing IAYMH 2025 to life, with a focus on youth participation and engagement!

James O'Loghlin Ian Hickie Brain & Mind Centre Its not about cost. Its about value for money and return on investment. The returns from effective treatment through reduced long term health and welfare costs on government and improvements in productivity scream money well spent.

It’s actually not expensive James O'Loghlin 10bn pa for 5m Australians compared with 40bn for NDIS (covers 500,000 people). We don’t Penny pinch cancer. Mental health care already neglected

Not just more $$ but pushing for a smarter, better set of investments; emphasis on affordable early intervention; thanks to Julia Gillard Malcolm Turnbull for their previous efforts; now up to Mark Butler MP and team to take it forward Patrick McGorry Rose Jackson Emma McBride MP

We must build a system at scale and quality

“Having escaped the lion’s den Mr #Lehrmann made the mistake of coming back for his hat.” Kind of sums up the whole thing.

We are so lucky to have Nick Larkey

I hope our boys put in a fantastic effort in his 100th game on Sunday

100% But so many with severe illness and their suffering families are so let down by our underfunded and poorly supported MH system. A systemic failure of society and political leaders. Solutions are so available Australians for Mental Health
