25.01.2022 Scott Morrison's announcement in March: The Australian Government will be responsible for residential aged care facilities Reality from the Aged Care Royal Commission: There was not a COVID-19 plan devoted solely to aged care No plan. Neglect. Over 650 deaths.
25.01.2022 Aged care workers look after our loved ones, parents and grandparents. They care for our them, cook for them, entertain them, bring them joy and sometimes simply hold their hands and listen to them. Today I met with three dedicated #agedcare workers- Josie, Virginia and Sanu.... They all work long, hard and go above and beyond for their residents. Anyone who says they are unskilled workers doesn’t know how important their work is or how much they put their hearts into it. They deserve a fair go and fair pay. Thank you HSU NSW.
23.01.2022 Once again Scott Morrison is letting vulnerable Australians down when they need them most. This wouldn't even be a problem had the PM brought all #StrandedAussies home before Christmas like he'd promised.
22.01.2022 We can't have another #RubyPrincess or aged care disaster. Our health our lives depend on us getting the response to future pandemics right. Labor will establish an Australian Centre for Disease Control.
21.01.2022 Another day... another Morrison Government rort
20.01.2022 Scott Morrison's priorities- Business visa holders Stranded Aussies? Since March, the Morrison Government has granted 485 business visas- visa holders who don't have to apply for a travel exemption to enter Australia. Meanwhile, almost 30,000 #strandedAussies have been abandoned overseas by the Morrison Government with no plan to get them home.... When it comes to Scotty from Marketing, it’s one rule for a privileged few, while stranded Aussies are left behind Sign the petition to bring them home- https://alp.org.au/strandedaussies
20.01.2022 36,000+ Australian citizens are still stranded overseas. They are losing their jobs and their houses. Two months ago, Scott Morrison made a promise: We will get you back by Christmas. What's his Government's response now? Go to a homeless shelter.
16.01.2022 Happy Diwali to everyone around Australia celebrating the festival of lights! Diwali is a celebration of life’s blessings and the triumph of good over evil. At Diwali, Hindus, Jains, Sikhs and Buddhists - some of the world’s oldest religions - light the Diya with family and friends.... This year, Diwali will be different with socially-distanced or virtual celebrations. Thank you for the sacrifices made by the community to stop the spread of the virus has helped save lives.
15.01.2022 An honest, sorrowful photo. A grief I painfully recognise, a loss so profound that our community struggles to speak about it. My broken heart every time I hear of another family who experiences the tragedy of losing their baby, be it miscarriage, stillbirth or neonatal death. Today in Australia, 6 women are experiencing the same heartbreak. ... Tomorrow, there will be 6 more. And every day after. We can honour all these families, including Chrissy Teigen and her family, by acknowledging their grief, speaking of their children, and working to save babies lives.
14.01.2022 Scott Morrison and Josh Frydenberg love making announcements but they NEVER deliver. Morrison Government promise: Infrastructure spending! Morrison Government reality: $1.7 billion underspend last year alone.
13.01.2022 More #strandedAussies- this time it's women abandoned by the Morrison Government, giving birth overseas during a pandemic and unable to return home to their families. "I'm desperate to go back to Australia to see my family and have more help with the baby." Sign the petition to bring them home- https://alp.org.au/strandedaussies
13.01.2022 It’s almost like creating a protection racket for their parliamentary mates. It’s very much an us and them situation. How good is Scott Morrison’s anti-corruption commission?
13.01.2022 Acting Immigration Minister Alan Tudge was given a chance to apologise to 100,000 Aussies waiting for partner visas... but he literally turned his back. How long will Australians who fall in love have to wait for the Morrison Government to fix their partner visa mess? A must watch speech by my colleague Julian Hill MP
10.01.2022 Congratulations to Celia, Taylor, Luke, Sonia, Sam and the 30 other Aussies now back on UA863 to Sydney. It shouldn't take an intervention by the Opposition Leader to get Australians home safely. But today it did. Scott Morrison (ScoMo), the COVID-19 pandemic and recession are an opportunity for you to start leading.... I suggest you take it.
10.01.2022 I have sad news. My dad, John Kerscher, died yesterday. Due to border closures, we said goodbye on Zoom and we can’t go to his funeral in Ohio. Like so many families, we are apart when we want to be together. My love to all families separated now, my hope that 2021 is better. For the past year my dad battled cancer linked to his exposure to Agent Orange during his two tours of service in Vietnam. He died in a veterans hospital in Michigan. He was 77 years old. Dad taught me t...o play the game the way it was meant to be played - whether sport or politics, don’t hesitate or hang back, but rather act strongly, with conviction. He loved my mother faithfully, and he taught his children & grandchildren about faith, strength and integrity. Dad was a Republican. We rarely agreed on politics. But he performed a great feminist act- he raised me, his only daughter, just like his sons. No small feat in 1970s and 80s USA. A piece- from Andrew Clennell- is one of my favourite descriptions of my dad. May he be at peace
09.01.2022 It shouldn't take Anthony Albanese's intervention to get this right. There are 36,000+ more stranded Australian taxpayers that need Scott Morrison's attention.
09.01.2022 Bushfires. The #RubyPrincess. Aged Care. Is there any buck Scott Morrison won't pass?
09.01.2022 Margaret's son is one of the tens of thousands of #strandedAussies left behind by Scott Morrison. I couldn't have said this better myself. Sign the petition to bring them home- https://alp.org.au/strandedaussies
08.01.2022 Why is the Prime Minister's $5.2m COVID Commission spending $34,000 on parking?! In July, it was $12,000 of taxpayers' money on parking. In September, taxpayers are being charged... another $21,000?!
08.01.2022 Each of Australia's six states currently has a dedicated integrity agency, with the Northern Territory and the ACT in the process of establishing one as well. Why won't Scott Morrison do what he promised and establish a National Integrity Commission. Scott Morrison is not on your side.
06.01.2022 We did it! This morning my Senate motion for national recognition of Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day passed in the House. Finally, #October15 will officially and eternally be recognised by the Australian Parliament.... Nicole Ballinger initiated this campaign over ten years ago, and John and Kate De’Laney at Pregnancy and Infant Loss Australia continued the vigorous work that led to this incredible achievement today. Thank you, and all the parents and families across Australia, who made this happen. #pailaustralia Stillbirth Foundation Australia Sands Australia
06.01.2022 Peter Dutton... how on earth did you allow this criminal- responsible for killing someone in Ireland- into Australia on a student visa in the first place?!
06.01.2022 It shouldn't take an intervention by the Opposition Leader Anthony Albanese to get Australians home safely. But last night, it did.
05.01.2022 It is time for Nades, Priya and their girls to head home to Biloela. The Biloela community want them home. It is past time for Immigration Minister Alex Hawke to bring this sorry saga to an end and allow the family to come home to Biloela, a community that wants them back.
05.01.2022 On 18 September, Scott Morrison promised #strandedAussies would be home by Christmas. Today, he didn't recommit to his promise. Australians don't leave their mates behind- so why is Scott Morrison?
05.01.2022 Scott Morrison was outclassed by Germany, Canada and even Donald Trump’s America when he left 36,000+ Australians stranded overseas. Scott Morrison promised stranded Australians on 18 September that they’d be home for Christmas. A promise he won’t keep. The PM has a plan on his desk from his hand-picked expert to safely increase quarantine numbers to bring more stranded Aussies home sooner, but he’s done nothing.
03.01.2022 Why does the Acting Immigration Minister Alan Tudge think he's above the law? The court said and I quote: "The Minister (that’s you Alan) has acted unlawfully. In the absence of explanation, the Minister (again, you Alan) has engaged in conduct which can only be described as criminal."
03.01.2022 Dr Ashleigh Smith lost her daughter, Isla, in January this year through neonatal death. Isla suffered a cord accident during the last day of Ashleigh's full-term pregnancy and passed away at two days old. Since Isla's passing, Ashleigh has tried to help others with similar grief so developed The Glimmer Project - a support network and resources for other families experiencing pregnancy or newborn loss.... She invited me onto her podcast to share my story, discuss grief, and how we can be educating all pregnant women about management of pregnancy loss. You can listen here- https://www.theglimmerproject.com/the-glimmer-project-podca
03.01.2022 Armidale locals are furious following the #SaferSeatsRorts scandal ripped them off. And now, Neighbourhood Watch volunteer Kathy Clare has this message for Peter Dutton: What he does in Canberra does affect the small people out in the bush and we won't wear it anymore." What does Barnaby Joyce have to say to Kathy?
02.01.2022 The Morrison Government's Budget will rack up a trillion dollars of debt but still doesn’t do enough to create jobs, fails to build for the future and leaves too many Australians behind. This Budget means the #MorrisonRecession will be deeper and longer than necessary.
01.01.2022 Scotty loves the photo opp... but he's never there for the follow up. He loves making announcements... but he never delivers. How can Australians trust him to deliver anything announced in the Budget?
