Former NSW premier Barry O’Farrell says the Yes campaign is not a “woke, inner-city movement” as Liberals throw their support behind the Indigenous Voice to Parliament.

“An equitable world will not just be better for women, though it most certainly will be. And it’s not just the right thing to do, though it most certainly is. An equitable world is better for all,” CEW President Susan Lloyd-Hurwitz.

As I wrote in a piece for @TheMandarinAU, the HAFF has the potential to be a significant cornerstone of structural reform in our housing system. I look forward to the Senate engaging constructively with Minister @JulieCollinsMP to unlock the door. tinyurl.com/ytveh6h3 #housing
When we were elected, we inherited a housing system in disarray. But as I write in today’s @dailytelegraph, Australia now has a once-in-a-generation opportunity to turn that around. We can’t afford to waste it.

Great conversation. Just heard a new term “black cladding” which is the equivalent of greenwashing on matters of indigenous reconciliation.

Thanks to Amanda for sharing her story and reminding us that housing insecurity can happen to anyone. This is why we need our NSW political reps to confront the NSW housing crisis. smh.com.au/national/nsw/how-…

Cities thrive when there’s a diversity of people. Sydney is at an inflection point where (a lack of) affordable housing is the key. Policy is important, action is urgent. Let’s get keys in doors. @SGCH_Ltd @CHIA_NSW #affordablehousing

Toilet time! 🚽
👉🏼60% of respondents say there should be more toilets for women than for men.
👉🏼Just over half that number (35%) say there should be equal numbers for men & women.
Can you tell us what you’ve built,
@AllianzStadium? #dunnycount
So, we’ve got a new football stadium in Sydney. Curious: what ratio of toilets (female:male, in addition to non-gendered loos) should there be in a brand spanking new stadium that will host the @FIFAWWC, concerts, etc? @AllianzStadium
5%More for men
35%Equal numbers
36%More for women, up to 2:1
24%More for women, by > 2:1

Now is the time to invest in critical care infrastructure for a prosperous future. The cost will be high, but the cost of not acting, monumentally higher! @KZiwica @Raecooper1 @sammostyn @SenKatyG @EconomistAnge theguardian.com/commentisfre…

Bringing forward changes to childcare subsidies would encourage more women back into the workforce, helping address the nation's skills shortage.

I am determined to ban assault weapons in this country.
I did it once before, and we will do it again.

Women with young children could address the skills shortage, but expensive childcare means returning to work isn't viable.
Let's bring forward the increase to childcare subsidies so women who want to, can return to work.

Sophie agree the AGEC Annual Forums are great to remind us of the FACTS. It’s amazing how many people don’t actually know the facts of gender inequality & how slow they are to change. It’s essential we get the message out there & advocate for action to really shift the dial.
First day of @ausgenderequal annual summit presents more sobering statistics. Women only occupy 14% of Exec line roles in the ASX 300; and the average weekly full line remuneration pay gap in Aust is 22.8% #AGEC2022 #GenderEquality #ItsTime #Leadership #Raiseourcollectivevoice
