@NabilAlNashar @TransportforNSW 🤦‍♂️

To make matters worse we have a pram with my son in it. Buses apparently can only accomodate 1 pram at a time meaning we had to miss the first bus…which had a 20 minute waiting period. This performance by @TransportforNSW tonight is an actual joke! #Transport #NSW #Sydney

⁦No trains to #LakembaRamadanNights all weekend according @TransportforNSW⁩ employee. Dozens stranded at #Lidcombe station waiting for replacement buses to #Bankstown before another bus can take them to #Lakemba during one of the busiest weekends in the year for the suburb

@BBCParham Ok, i’ve sent you a telegram.

@martysmiley It was published yesterday by Iranian hardline media.

Iranian security agent to a woman without mandatory #hijab: “You believe in Freedom? Fine, we’ll release all the rapists and thieves to give you a lesson.”

The out-of-home care system can be difficult for any young person. Workers and carers often aren't trained in how to deal with trauma. That makes it hard for young people to process. We heard from some foster care participants on what could be improved. abc.net.au/news/2023-06-0…
