Polls open in 90 min. The man has arrived, to re-establish democratic processes within Victoria. Labor has thrown everything they can at Matthew Guy. He has stood the test. He is experienced, an MP for 16 yrs, incl a Minister Guy is the man for a fresh, honest start for Victoria

@bronte__lee Just spell ‘ceramics’ backwards and call it ‘Scimarec’ … no explanation needed - see if anyone notices …

@Mon4Kooyong While I am happy to acknowledge a bunch of 16-17 year olds are politically aware, I do wonder what proportion of them will just ask their parents who they should vote for - I suspect (but happy to be proved wrong) that it would be north of 60%…

I've been meeting with colleagues across the parliament to discuss allowing 16 and 17 year olds the right to vote, to have their say in the decisions made about their future.
What do you think about lowering the voting age?

Recently, I have been asked a lot of questions about the impact of winter on the war in #Ukraine. In some respects, this is pretty ironic; I was born & live on the flattest, dustiest & hottest continent imaginable. That said, a thread on the coming winter war in Ukraine. 1/25 🧵

Ok #auspol , have your say on whether #Musk should reinstate the odious, lying, misogynistic, buffoon #Trump to #Twitter
Musk will probably do whatever he wants anyway, but knock yourselves out …
Personally, if Trump is allowed back then I won’t be checking in here anymore …

@GrogsGamut I suspect 10cents on the dollar is a massive over valuation of Twitter …

@Christie_Whelan @BethanyinCBR If only the Howard Govt had not pissed the mining boom up against the wall, we could have had a high speed rail alternative to keep #Qantarse honest
Instead, Joyce has deliberately limited supply of planes on major routes to increase prices - he admitted as much mid-year

Honestly tho…. Qantas charging $1610 one way to Melb? Virgin $899. What the fuck is going on? This used to be a $200 flight. Sorry there was a pandemic bitches but stop trying to ruin our lives because of it?

Because Deliveroo gamed the system and claimed riders were not employees, these workers are left high and dry - no entitlements, no notice, no redundancy pay. It's about time the gig's up
TWU Australia@TWUAus
We're seeking urgent consultation for fair compensation to Deliveroo riders after the company's shock exit from Australia at the first indication it can’t rely on exploitation to make profits. It's clearer than ever: we need Fed Govt reform to protect ALL gig workers.

Many commentators say that sales of the @australian means that its influence has declined.
Not true. Too many journalists use it to set their daily agenda.
The @politicsabc seems incapable of operating without relying on Murdoch employed talking heads. A national disgrace!

@ProbablyScience - Scientists have found that by narrowing your eyes at a cat (as you would in a relaxed smile) then closing your eyes for a couple of seconds you find the cat responds in the same way and you can start a sort of conversation sciencealert.com/scientists-con…
