Someone from Albo’s team needs to find the fella who called Sydney ABC Radio for the quiz tonight and told the great story about delivering papers to Albo and his mum. He said ‘I’d love to see him again and give him a hug’. He’s 62 now, lives in the Central Coast, which is convenient ;) #auspol

Tonight, Australia voted No to ignorance & Yes to Acknowledgement; No to xenophobia & Yes to Welcomes; No to regression & Yes to progress.
Peter Dutton, Jacinta Price, Clive Palmer, Pauline Hanson, the IPA & Advance henceforth have no mandate. They’ve been thoroughly told NO.

Of course.
Wouldn’t mind this man being leader of the Free World. Oh Canada.
I spoke with UN Secretary-General António Guterres today. In this time of rising conflict, Canada is ready to lead.
We will build coalitions, defend democracy, and stand up for our values on the world stage. As others step back from global leadership, Canada is stepping up.

This is my electorate- we’ve been invaded. It’s been a battlefield. Complaints made. Eventually every candidate ordered to remove corflutes from the heritage fence around Prepoll. Worst I’ve ever seen.
Exclusive Brethren coming out in 100s to support the Libs & campaign at polling booths.
They deny they’re Brethrens if asked. Here’s one putting up a “defend the right to worship” sign👇🏻
Seriously, nobody is stopping them from worshipping. It’s more likely Libs can make their legal problems go away
