Just been told by a woman with experience that to access the “services” card part of the $5O00 you have to get quotes & have your planned expenditure approved.

How dare you treat women like this Anthony Albanese ?

You are deep in Scott Morrison territory here

Is that headline serious? “Keeps on getting pneumonia”??

Why aren't politicians and journalists talking about this case?

Because this is not what they want as being labelled as #DomesticViolence .

Just like Christian Porter, Bruce Lehrmann & my dad.

We had our #Covid vaccine again this morning.

The RN reading our consent forms looked quite surprised & asked “Wait, so you’ve both never had Covid?”

No we haven’t. The vaccine must be working & wearing masks helps too. Hopefully we won’t get it…

Senator Penny Wong Except Palestinians who are subject to

Brutal occupation
Ethnic cleansing
Murder
Stolen land
Bombings
Destruction of schools, hospitals, universities
Starvation
Genocide

Except for Palestinians … right Penny …?

They are incapable of self-reflection.

They are incapable of change.

These are not the people we need running a national discussion about violence against women. (3/3)

They hounded and humiliated a rape victim and the female journalist who supported her.

Their mindset is dominated by the thinking of old, white, conservative men...(2/3)

The Australian media unleashed at tsunami of misogyny against Julia Gillard.

They ran campaigns against Gillian Triggs, Christine Holgate and every woman who so much as looked at Scott Morrison the wrong way, literally...(1/3)

20-year-old Lucy developed a headache then other worrying symptoms, but instead of being correctly diagnosed with brain inflammation, Lucy was sectioned. She was then given ECT therapy, which caused an accident that left her paralysed.

P.S. - As with everything I post on here, this is entirely my own thoughts and has no relationship to Brookings or any of my coworkers there. These are challenging issues that require open debate and freedom of conscience; this opinion is mine and mine alone!

I'll leave you with the story of Hind Rajab, who student activists at Columbia renamed a building after. No matter how much media spin you hear about these protests, they are fundamentally about innocent people like Hind who are being killed every day in Gaza. This needs to end.

I stand with all of the students around the country who are trying, as best they can, to build a more just world. The murder of innocent Jews by Hamas was reprehensible. So is the murder of innocent Palestinians with the tacit support and funding of the US government. (5/6)

My grandmother nearly died in Auschwitz, and my grandfather fought in the Jewish resistance in Hungary and Czechoslovakia. They both fought for the creation of a Jewish state in Israel. They would be appalled by what the Israeli government is doing, now, in their name. (4/6)

Those two views are not incompatible. They are inextricable from one another. My Jewishness informs my conviction that we are all made in the image of God, and that we have no choice but to oppose the murder happening in Gaza with the nonviolent means at our disposal. (3/6)

First: I am a proud Jew and grandchild of Holocaust survivors. Second: Israel is killing thousands of innocent civilians in Gaza. The actions of the Netanyahu government, and our funding and support of those actions, are morally indefensible. (2/6)

For personal and professional reasons, I haven't been vocal about Palestine on this platform. But after yesterday, I want to make a few things clear for the record. (1/6)

CW: Police violence

I’m home. I’m significantly bruised, in a lot of pain & my shoulder is sprained. I’ve been told to return to the hospital if certain things happen which might be signs of internal damage, esp from the strangulation which you can see briefly in the video here

An real example of How Liberal Party policy hurts Australia. In 2018, my wife and I bought a 2nd hand Car. Good brand low Kms for $9,000. bit small but nice car. time to buy again. Thought about Trade in. Same car now with 83k kms worth $14,000. Why? Well in 2013 when
