25.01.2022 One of many ways to support our Aussie farmers is through your local farmers’ market. Great to bump into old friends and new at today’s Warragul Farmers Market. Thanks to the Mayor Cr Danny Goss for making time to discuss the priorities for the local community. Merry Christmas!... Gippsland Jersey; Baw Baw Shire Council; Streatside Cafe & Eatery; Gippslandia
23.01.2022 On World Mental Health Day you should know that if you’re doing it tough, there is help available.
22.01.2022 The Morrison Coalition Government has no clear plan to address the labour crisis facing our Aussie farmers. Story in the Sunraysia Daily www.sunraysiadaily.com.au #auspol
21.01.2022 Good morning Canberra!
21.01.2022 Let’s all recognise the enormous contribution made by women in regional Australia. Happy #InternationalRuralWomensDay
20.01.2022 Australian Sustainable Hardwoods in Gippsland is Australia's largest hardwood manufacturer and the life of the town of Heyfield. Ed Husic MP and I heard all about their success today when Vince Hurley showed us the facilities and we met local timber workers. Australian Forest Products Association CFMEU Manufacturing
20.01.2022 Repairing social housing creates jobs for tradies and makes sure vulnerable Australians live with dignity. That’s why an Australian Labor Party Government would invest in repairing 100,000 social housing properties.
18.01.2022 The International Day to End Violence against Women kicked off #16Days of action. In Australia, a woman is killed every week in incidents of family violence. We all have a role to play in ending violence against women. https://bit.ly/3m6VNcR #OrangeTheWorld
18.01.2022 This morning I got a text from a friend. She had just landed in Australia, home finally after 10 failed attempts to return. It beggars belief that the Morrison Coalition Government continues to abandon Australian citizens stranded overseas. #auspol
17.01.2022 Labor in Victoria is stepping up to protect some of our lowest paid and most vulnerable workers with sick leave. The Federal Coalition on the other hand don’t understand that insecure work is a problem.
16.01.2022 Investment in social housing creates jobs, tackles homelessness and reduces poverty. That's why the Australian Labor Party is calling for investment in social housing repairs.
16.01.2022 Perfect weather for an afternoon stroll along the Strzelecki Trail
15.01.2022 Robodebt wreaked a trail of carnage across Australia poverty, anxiety and even suicide. Victims were treated terribly by the Morrison Coalition Government and only a Royal Commission will give the public the answers they deserve. #auspol #robodebt #robodebtRC
14.01.2022 Regional Victoria did it tough through the COVID-19 pandemic. But every Victorian can help and it's as simple as getting in your car and visiting places like the Loch Brewery & Distillery. I was there today with Ed Husic MP. The team are making some fantastic beers and spirits. Well worth a visit. A holiday in Victoria is not only an opportunity to have an adventure but it is also an investment in our tourism industry and the millions of Victorians who rely on it. Visit www.holidayathome.org.au to join Labor's campaign for local tourism. Food & Fibre Gippsland
13.01.2022 May the spirit of Christmas be with you all on this wonderful day #PeaceJoyLove #MerryChristmas
13.01.2022 The Senate Select Committee on Temporary Migration will hold a public hearing from 12noon today. #auspol You can watch online https://www.aph.gov.au/watch_read_listen
11.01.2022 Well done, Victoria!
10.01.2022 We have lost more veterans to death by suicide than at the front line. This is a national tragedy. Labor supports veterans and their families and is calling for a Royal Commission to help prevent us losing any more. #auspol
09.01.2022 Constant dropouts, latency issues and slow connection speeds that’s what regional Australia has been putting up with from the Morrison Coalition Government’s second rate NBN. Why is a $51 billion network, that is $21.5 billion over budget and four years behind schedule, still not delivering minimum speeds? #auspol
09.01.2022 The JobMaker hiring credit will leave around one million Australians unprotected from unfair dismissal and vulnerable to having their hours reduced. Casual workers are again being left behind by the Coalition Government. My op ed for the Pyrenees Advocate and The Ararat Advocate. #auspol #ausunions
08.01.2022 Gippsland Jersey is a fantastic local success story. They're a small, thriving independent dairy producer with big plans to grow. Great to bring the Australian Labor Party's new Shadow Minister for Ag Ed Husic MP out to meet Sallie and the team, and enjoy a cuppa on the back of the ute. #Gippsland #RegionalVictoria #Auspol
06.01.2022 With the Australian Labor Party you’ll get trains built by Australians for Australians.
05.01.2022 From 11:59pm tonight, there are more changes to COVID-19 restrictions in Victoria.
05.01.2022 A very tasty afternoon tea for Pink Ribbon Day today. You can support women living with breast cancer by supporting Breast Cancer Network Australia https://bit.ly/3nLo8Gz #pinkribbonday #pinkbunsforbcna
03.01.2022 Any day that starts with a farm dog and sunshine is going to be a great day! This is Millie (& Kenny) who work on the Gippsland Jersey farm. #gippsland #regionalvictoria
02.01.2022 Great to hear from expert witnesses at today's Senate hearing on temporary migration. Today’s presentations will assist to inform the committee’s work. #auspol
01.01.2022 The message of Christmas, central to the birth of Jesus, is of hope for the future. As I reflect on the year we’ve been through, this hope seems more relevant than ever. I wish you and your family many blessings today and for 2021. #MerryChristmas
01.01.2022 So good to catch up in person again with local Labor members and supporters over a Christmas BBQ. Always great to catch up with friends and colleagues including Jackson Taylor MP and Sorina Grasso - Councillor for Dinsdale Ward, Knox City Council.
01.01.2022 Remembering the lives lost in the West Gate Bridge collapse, 50 years ago today. Every worker should come home safe.
