Mr Gosling says he has his own reservations about assisted dying, but he believes Territorians and their parliament should be allowed to have that debate for themselves #assisteddying #auspol

Luke Gosling (ALP, Solomon) says the prohibition on the Territories from debating and passing assisted dying laws is an effective 'gag' 'on democracy. This bill is not about legalising VAD but about equity and fairness #assisstedying #auspol

ACT MP Andrew Leigh (ALP, Fenner) is a passionate supporter of Territory Rights and #assisteddying. He will back the Territory Rights bill. "To hold back the Territories is to hold back laws that have been passed in every other Australian state". #VAD #auspol #ACTpol #ntpol

NT MP Marion Scrymgour (ALP, Lingiari) will back the Territory Rights Bill. She says Territorians should be able to have their views reflected & acted upon. Bill wont legalise VAD in the NT, simply enable the debate to happen. #assisteddying #VAD #ntpol #actpol

TAS MP Bridget Archer (LP, Bass) shows a deep understanding of the issues of Territory Rights & #assisteddying. Says Territorians should have the same rights to pass a #VAD law that Tasmanians had. Both issues meet community expectations. Commends Bill #auspol #ACtpol #NTpol

I have leisons in the corners of my mouth that won't heal, they crack any time I open my mouth. I feel like this doesn't bode well. Maybe I'm ok but I'm starting to LOOK like I'm dying. Brain cancer is an invisible disability but these mouth sores bode ill.

Been flying #Qantas for 70 years & now I am watching it die. Trying to get home to Brisbane from Canberra. They have cancelled one flight & have no baggage handlers to load this one. I am on board so there is hope. Others missing out. Founder Hudson Fysh is turning in his grave.

Sick isn’t a look. Cancer doesn’t have a set look. Disability doesn’t have a set look. This comment is beyond ignorant. Do better.
