Reminder that two thirds of the $254 billion Stage 3 tax cuts will go to men. $254 billion could fund the construction of enough public homes to clear the waitlists (majority women and children), bring back the single parents pension (which Labor cut) & introduce free childcare.

Goodman Fielder/Pampas workers taking the fight to supposedly ethical @Zambrero - more like #scambreros ! Across the country solidarity actions are taking place calling on them to act on their ethical image and intervene in this exploitation in their supply chain. #PayUpPampas

Can’t be an ethical company if your supply chain is exploiting workers! @Zambrero tell #Pampas to pay workers fairly #PayUpPampas

Put me in charge of Centrelink. Sack all the agencies. Get rid of Serco. Employ staff to help people. Give the clients the proceeds. No more mutual obligation bullshit. No demerit points. No more suicides. No fake debts. Treat people with respect. #auspol #thedrum Out with Hank!

In the same address, @michaeldaleyMP acknowledged there won’t likely be enough court cases to review after a 3 year period. With respect, I remind @NSWLabor that there are 10,000s of people sexually assaulted each year in NSW. What does this say about expectations of justice?

It’s not segregation when you get to *choose* whether to sit in the back of the bus or the front.

Scott Morrison’s spent $3.6 billion in assistance for pandemic related lockdowns. Last year, he gave fossil fuel giants $10.3 billion in handouts. The money’s always been there - but he’s not in power to help *you*.

As a social worker I can tell you any parent or carer who abused a child to this extent would likely face gaol. The behaviour of Morrison & Dutton is not only morally repugnant it's is effectively criminal. #hometobilo

#BREAKING: McCormick workers have just voted to accept an offer from the company that gives them everything they asked for. Workers will keep ALL conditions that were under attack, receive yearly 3% pay rise & get a $5000 sign on bonus. Workers are strong when united! #auspol
