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. For the latest news videos, visit: trib.al/d7GStPk

“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. #CEWAnnualDinner

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.

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 smh.com.au/national/nsw/we-d…

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

Bringing forward changes to childcare subsidies would encourage more women back into the workforce, helping address the nation's skills shortage. 🎧 Listen to this great piece from @abcnews AM and @StephieBorys: abc.net.au/radio/programs/am…

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. #auspol @StephieBorys @abcnews abc.net.au/news/2022-08-30/m…

Wonderful AFLW football at the weekend. Our female players should be given the opportunity to play at the MCG, Marvel and other major sporting arenas around Australia . The standard of play has improved incredibly over the years. Go girls
