'Today, for the first time in 50 years, there are political moves to reindustrialise Australia, however tentative.
So far, Morrison’s stimulus for manufacturing has been an underwhelming $1.5 billion.' #timetobuild #auspol

Maybe when EVERY vulnerable person in WA has access to palliative care? 🤔
Maybe not now when 1 in 3 Western Australians (esp. those in rural areas) are suffering needlessly owing to a lack of quality palliative care? #TakeABreath WA Parliament. #wapol #qldpol

While this is a privately generated petition, we are in agreement with its call for properly funded palliative care across all metropolitan and regional areas of Queensland as the only outcome to pursue. #VAD #qldpol

Exactly the question that #AbortionRethink is here to ask. Our deepest appreciation to Sandy Bolton for saying what we've all been thinking all along....see full quote below. #womendeservebetter #qldpol

“This news is worse than my own baby dying in my arms”
“You’re a %&ing idiot for not terminating”
“Why are you the 1 in 10 that isn’t terminating?”

Well, don't women and doctors deserve the best model? This #abortionbill of @QLDLabor is far from it 😶🙄 @YvetteDAth – at Brisbane, Queensland

We have just heard from Deputy Premier @jackietrad. It was disappointing to hear her deny the fact of #abortioncoercion. She stated that it did not exist. Deeply reprehensible to deny the lived experiences of women. #womendeservebetter #qldpol

Doctors speak out on why THEY #deservebetter than this shoddy Bill which tramples on their rights to put the individual needs of the patient first & practice according to conscience. #qldpol #abortiondebateqld

Ami shares her story of receiving much needed help outside an abortion clinic. She speaks of her gratitude for the real choice she was offered at her most vulnerable time, and her concern at such help potentially being outlawed. #listentotheirvoices #abortionrethink #qldpol

"The State requires a Birth & Death Certificate after 20 weeks. This Bill allows abortion (on demand) to 22 weeks. How can we reconcile these two facts?" #abortiondebateQLD #qldpol

Out of the total of 6,200+ submissions received on the Termination of Pregnancy Bill 2018, 4,800 were uploaded to the Health Committee website. Of these, 78% percent did NOT agree that abortion should be legal up to 22 weeks. What else is the Health Committee ignoring? #qldpol

Women's stories around the 'counselling' they received.....sobering and something that MUST be amended when legislating for abortion law reform. #truechoice #CommitteeQuestions #qldpol
