@HonTonyAbbott Shame on you. This comment is beneath an ex PM. Essentially criticising democracy. Let the people speak, and let the judiciary interpret the law.

It should not be for judges to decide when a political protest is justified. The decision to close the Sydney Harbour Bridge to facilitate this protest is a political decision and should be made by elected and accountable ministers - who as it happens, think the march should not go ahead. We are on a slippery slope when unelected judges start making political judgments.

Look, Trump is trying to oversaturate us with nonstop chaos so we can’t react meaningfully to any one thing. But Friday's global stop work order on almost all U.S. aid is dumb and murderous. You need to know about it. 1/ A short🧵on this evil. cnn.com/2025/01/24/pol…

@Milliganreports No one in their right mind does this. We need support for people with mental health issues, so this does not happen

Very sorry Sydney Mardi Gras has withdrawn the invitation for NSW Police to march with us at the Sydney Gay & Lesbian Mardi Gras Parade this weekend. NSW Police have marched for 20 years and attended many other Mardi Gras-related events. Some of these police are Gay & Lesbian Liaison Officers. Others are marching to show leadership and nurture cultural change within the NSW Police. Over the years it’s been marvellous to see mainstream organisations and government agencies join the Mardi Gras Parade, including members of the defence forces and faith groups. As someone arrested multiple times during the early days of Gay Liberation in 1970s Sydney, this cultural change and inclusiveness was what we were fighting for. NSW Police marching with us is a good news story in a world where homosexuality is still a criminal offence with heavy penalties in many nations. Let’s hope this decision can be changed. 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 @sydneymardigras @nswpolice

‘“New Zealand is looking across the ditch to Australia and I think many at least Pakeha New Zealanders [European descent] are probably puzzled that what is in their eyes such a modest proposal is struggling to win sufficient votes," he says.’ www-bbc-co-uk.cdn.ampproject.org/c/s/www.bbc.co…
