It makes no sense to deport Novak, I’m not sure what Morrison thinks he’s protecting us from but in this scenario, Novak carries the brunt of the risk.
Pre-warned but too little too late from the Morrison Govt on Afghanistan #auspol

All I want is a local cake shop that will safely deliver a piece of cake to each of my colleagues on my birthday.
Lol at @ScottMorrisonMP ‘s vaccine strategy. “If I don’t buy any Pfizer and we have an outbreak maybe I can pressure everyone into having AZ” #auspol #auspol2021
A quick note on people asking me to speak at conferences. If you're trying to make your event sound appealing by telling me the names of the other people you have already booked, then don't be surprised if when it turns out they're all white men I decline.

I started reading #darkemu and am mourning the loss of the Australia that was.
Find someone who loves you as much as Australian media loves corrupt Liberal politicians.

Could you imagine if it was the UK instead of India we were talking about, think Dutton would be threatening 5 years jail, hell no. These are policies you can only get away with when they are targeted at people of colour. Just an extension of our racist paranoia as a nation.

There's a story in Murdoch's papers today, sustaining their character assassination campaign, this time through my brother. I’ve never responded in the past. Just to say, all families are complicated. And we still love him. Murdoch's Kenny should be ashamed for stooping so low.

That cry-wank of Morrison’s asking women to “stand with him” when his idea of standing with women & girls includes refusing to: - investigate rapes, - action sexual harassment reccs, - fix Aged Care, - fix childcare, & - properly fund DV, among much else is sooo fucking fucked.

"I need women to stand with me" says Scott, one week after 10,000 women stood literally outside his office while he ignored them and later told them to be grateful he didn't have them shot.

Either Porter is too mentally sick to work for a fortnight, or he should be at work. If he’s too mentally sick to work, he isn’t well enough to start a defamation campaign against the public broadcaster. If he’s not sick, he should be taking leave without pay.

Talk about not reading the room. Govt just gagged @AlboMP me and @JulieCollinsMP - stopping us from moving a motion calling for an inquiry into Porter allegations; explanation of handling of Brittany Higgins matter; action on Respect@Work & more prevention of gendered violence

All speeches from male politicians today were about how women should report sexual violence. Not one (that I’ve heard) was about how men should stop fucking raping. It’s twenty-fucking-twenty-one. Rape convictions are still women’s fault & responsibility. Let that sink in.

I don’t think men should be permitted to write or speak or moderate any discussions on rape/sexual assault unless: A. They’re a victim; B. They’ve been vetted by 10 expert women; & C. There are no women available who’d do as good or a better job. Pls QT with tag #LetWomenSpeak

To all people who say women shouldn’t get drunk, shouldn’t walk alone late at night, should dress like a nun if they don’t want to be raped. I was not drunk, I was at home on a Sunday morning when my attacker turned up at my door uninvited. I was 20. #RIPKate #EnoughIsEnough

Good morning to everyone who finds it deeply painful that when violence against women becomes unbearable, everyone asks women to organise protests & pushback. Men’s violence towards women is a MEN’S PROBLEM. Why the fuck aren’t men organising to send a message to other men?
