Joining in conversations regarding The Uluru Statement with an open mind. : )

@spenderallegra @spenderallegra - Ever tried walking into a SA building? Try it incognito (sunglasses, wig) one day. Eye opening.

People in my electorate and all over the country need government help. But they’re frustrated by call wait times, hang ups, and the inability to get onto Services Australia. I’m pushing the government to urgently improve the agency’s performance.

@KyleaTink @ABCaustralia It was refreshing to listen to practical thoughts regarding the way politics can, could and should work. #thugpolitics to #tealpolitics for mine. Be the change, you want to see.

Great question last night from Yasmin: “Should we have to accept bad behaviour in Australia’s parliament, just because it could be worse?” #auspol Parliamentary behaviour comes under scrutiny on Q+A, panellists also debate housing, Qantas abc.net.au/news/2023-09-1… via @ABCaustralia

@strangerous10 @KyleaTink Spot on. This highlights the benefits of fresh perspectives, and that individuals groomed via political party processes, become conditioned to what they perceive as acceptable behaviour. Politics can be done differently, Australia should show the world, a better way.

Independent Kylea Tink says she received comments from others after she spk up yesterday suggesting she should have raised her concerns “quietly” & slams Peter Dutton for telling her that her aggressive treatment by an Opposition MP is “just what happens in parliament.”😡#ABC

@KyleaTink @YouTube The standard one chooses to pass by is indicative of the standard one is willing to embrace. You must be the change you want to see in the world. Raise the bar, set the expected standards and the wise will rise to meet you.

How can we expect people in our wider community to treat each other respectfully when that behaviour is absent from Parliament. We must all do better: today & everyday #auspol Behaviour in Parliament | Kylea Tink MP | 7 Sep 2023 youtu.be/kNWSFIdvGW0?si… via @YouTube

@ScotMacDonald1 The logos are similar, almost like it was expecting, years ago...

The University Accord Report seems to take seriously the challenges of regional universities. Possible model of a National Regional Uni with multiple campuses. Should UNE merge with University of Newcastle education.gov.au/australian-uni…

Kylea asks the panel, if you could leave the audience with one idea…. What would it be?

Good point. It's a angle, that is raised consistently. I wonder about thoughts, on potential options.
