Shocking news tonight that Sydney’s multi-arts site #Carriageworks has gone into administration
Likely the first of many arts organisations to do so #coronavirusaustralia
Can you imagine any female politician who had been married multiple times & had children to many men expecting to be President, or one who had left her long time husband & 4 kids & went on to have 2 more kids with a much younger partner expecting to lead their party again? No?

My nana sent an angry letter today to @ScottMorrisonMP. She’s outraged about the lack of action on CC & has been pushing for climate action since the 70s. I was just explaining twitter to her - can someone retweet this so I can show her how far her letter can go?

Pads and tampons are just as essential as toilet paper and soap.
So from this week, we'll start supplying them in our public schools – free of charge.
It's an Australian first. And it's the right thing to do.
Dear ACL, raising millions to bailout a multi - millionaire who lost his job because of his bigoted views is not freedom in action, it’s just waste. That 3 million could be housing our homeless, feeding destitute refugees helping Close the Gap & funding women’s refuges. Disgusted
For every good Christian doing works of love and charity, there seem to be about ten whose sole aim is to parade their piety by oppressing people they hate.
