Smart Energy Council’s John Grimes has roasted the “Tin Foil Hat Brigade Poppycock” LNP over their Nuclear proposal saying it’s “all about attacking Renewables & boosting Fossil Fuels.” Grimes calls out Dutton’s big list of fibs on Renewables inc his “1.4 Trillion Dollar Lie”🔥

Under our plan, every Australian taxpayer will get a tax cut, and more Australians will receive a bigger tax cut.

Whether you’ve dedicated decades or minutes to the simple question being posed today, this referendum is a precious opportunity to move closer to becoming one country. Voting YES will enable much needed improvements in health, education and justice outcomes for Indigenous people.

How you vote is totally up to you but we’ve decided to run a radio advertising campaign urging people not to fall for all the bullshit that’s being thrown around by the NO campaign. Just don’t let anyone treat you like a mug - if you don’t know, find out! yes23.com.au/vote_yes

Amazon invited some parliamentarians who have raised concerns about Amazon to visit their site in Sydney. The parliamentarians wanted ⁦@SDAunion⁩ the local reps for Amazon workers to come too. Parliamentarians welcome…unions not #makeamazonpay

Parliamentary friendship groups help forge strong international relations. The head of the 🇭🇷🇦🇺 Friendship Group, Danica Baričević, has her own special connection to 🇦🇺. Born in #Myrtleford she also reflects our enduring two-way community bonds. @DaveSmithMP @hollieahughes

Former Coalition minister for Indigenous Australians Ken Wyatt rejects Peter Dutton’s claims about the Voice being a “Canberra Voice” “that's far from the truth… it's not a Canberra Voice. It is not elites. It is people from the grassroots”

We’re investing in our national museums, archives and galleries. After a decade of neglect under the Liberals, we’re stepping in to help because cultural institutions belong to all Australians.

An Indigenous Voice to Parliament would be a powerful way of upholding human rights in Australia. A statement on behalf of five former Human Rights Commissioners: Brian Burdekin AO, Chris Sidoti, Graeme Innes AM, the Hon Catherine Branson AC KC, and myself

It's good to hear that @PeterDutton_MP thinks turning up is an important part of leadership on Indigenous issues Because I remember when he walked out on the apology to the stolen generation Now he's walking out on The Voice His actions speak louder than words

An indictment of how this country's politicians treat culture unless it comes in Anzac packaging. A better funding deal for the nation's cultural institutions including the National Gallery, Library, Museum, Archives, and Film and Sound Archive is urgent. smh.com.au/culture/art-and-d…
