Remember when Dutton refused to allow appropriate medical care for an 11 year old boy with a difficult fracture (after we’d trafficked him to a tiny island without proper medical care or education). Dutton spent millions of dollars fighting against bringing people to Aus for proper care. #auspol

Americans particularly but the rest of us too: have you got your favourite photos and documents in hard copies. The tech fash trajectory means we should not count the platforms as safe, and Americans face the real risk for the left (and centrist-y progressives are included) of hard drive seizure.

Australia has concerning reliance on US which compromises both safety of citizens, sovereignty of nation.

Join more than 900 Aussies who have signed for sovereignty. Let’s get to 1,000 today! ✊🏽 #auspol

One of the best and most powerful parts of #Australias electoral system. We must use it! #auspol.
Just a reminder … Australian preferential voting allows you to choose who gets your vote should your first preference not be successful.

Make your vote count, don’t vote for the same old shit.

Apologies, have never done this before. Please would you publicise my mobility scooters (2) have been stolen from Richmond/Melbourne area? Most concerned for my pink 4x4 all-terrain one. I have now lost my (virtual) legs. TerrainHoppers are rare in Aus.

Dear Labor. Please stop saying "Greens political party". We know they are a political party and it makes you sound lame, weird and desperate.

Humbled by all the kind people who’ve reached out to me asking how they can help us after the Asylum Seeker Resource Centre was robbed twice in past 48 hrs

If you can manage a donation to help us cover the cost of what was stolen or damaged we’d be so grateful: donate.asrc.org.au/donatetoday
