I don’t look at these photos and think, well there’s a young man who needs to trial more conventional therapies because just maybe...the 17th or 18th drug might work without harming him.

Better still ask the man who fixed "it" @fergusonmichael or the current Health Minister who would be expected to keep up with access to medicine. #politas

There is a Tasmanian government access scheme in place now.
Ask me how I know it is failing patients.

A decade ago we hosted a forum in Launceston. What has changed since then? Access/affordability for patients remains an issue. There is still a significant number of patients who don't even realise it is legal now. Patients who are happy to self provide are not supported.

@anthony_dodd1 @7tasnews Schedule 8 cannabis medicines also need State approval. Unless that has changed and they haven't updated the info on the DoH website.
English
Many patients and carers have concerns that further interference from the TGA will restrict genuine patient access.

She says the TGA is reviewing unregistered medicinal cannabis and that it’s an evolving space and that the gov is committed to working through this space @7tasnews #politas

I don't know how to put into words..
A family member who has long used cannabis medicinally now has a legal prescription.
I am so happy for them.
It has been a battle for Tasmanians to be sure, but finally patients are getting what they deserve 💚
English
A face I'd rather forget.
A health minister who denied Tasmanians access to medicine.
A man who put his warped, outdated morals above the health and well being of very unwell people.
I never thought he would be so fiercely opposed to saying yes, I'll help.

Congratulations @Lyn_Cleaver and @ellen_rosella for correctly guessing tomorrow's @PollPositionPod special guest. Less so Mr @grok who falsely claimed it was Jeremy Rockliff. Should be a great chat, so much to talk about. #politas @swegen31

Well if it is Ferguson most of us would prefer to skip that one...

This should be easy imo #politas

Senators in Tassie at the moment with hemp inquiry I hope they also take the time to read through patient/carer submissions to the TGA consultation for medicinal cannabis #politas

@TDevil2028 I don't disagree with you. I just don't think it is up to ordinary Tasmanians to foot his bill.

@Lyn_Cleaver He's creating something for the community - it will be a huge asset for the north.

If Mr Stewart wants it let him pay for it.

I have some big news! Today, we’re locking in a new 1,000-person Convention Centre for Launceston. For some time now, this city has been crying out for a development like this. So we’re stepping up, and partnering with Tasmanian stalwart Errol Stewart to get it built. The new Convention Centre is going to double the number of business events Launceston can hold each year, unlocking $30m in extra economic activity to the region annually. The equivalent of 4 Foo Fighters concerts each and every year. Our $10m investment will ensure the $35m project will go ahead at Kings Wharf, with the plans for a new hotel next door well underway. This is going to mean jobs, opportunity and wealth for Northern Tasmanians. Not just in construction, but over decades to come. And that’s what it’s all about.

@marijuanacomau This ⬆️ is as infuriating as it is heart breaking.

790 submissions. Take a look. Even if you couldn't be fucked writing one, try and make the effort to read some of the submissions from those of us that did. #HomeGrowAmnesty

There's so many side effects that parents finding cannabis for their kids is often the very FIRST time they can medicate their kids without the very real risks associated with AEDs.
Problem is Drs and legislators are not listening.
English
I can tell you. It's a long list. It's drugs that aren't tested in children. It's drugs that can be fatal with conditions such a SJS, respiratory arrest, psychosis, suicidal ideation. Drugs causing PCOS, aggression, depression, weight changes, bone density issues, insomnia..
Marijuana@marijuanacomau
This submission from a parent of child with epilepsy is making me wonder what got redacted..
English
No surprises here, they are not listening to patients.

How much per ticket?
We just spent over $700.00 for medicine.
That will last just a little over a month.
Little left for such luxury spending on a disability pension.

I was born in 1971. To the lady at 2.37 min 👏👏 Here we are 2025, still fighting stigma.

I am not sure how we ended up on this mailing list but you can be sure Michael we asked for your help and not only were you "not there for us" you put our son at risk of ongoing specialist medical care.
Shame on you.

The @TasLiberal refusal to fund medicinal cannabis under the Controlled Access Scheme for those most vulnerable (has it ever been more than 20 ppl subsidised?) and their desire to build the stadium I am left wondering what their opposition to medicine was?
