Creating a market for accessible cannabis and not having road laws that equate cannabis presence as impairment are needed. The current rules are horrible #legalise #auspoll
Public Health Institute, California assessed cannabis retail store density & countywide mortality rates in Washington state. High volume of retailers—reduced levels of opioid-related deaths & no increases in traffic-related fatalities or suicide.

Legalising cannabis for personal use would reduce minor offences and ease pressure on police and court systems.

Peaceful & fair resolution isn't part of Trumpist ideology. I believe Albanese should open the doors for displaced Palestinians from #Gaza, also need to end #AUKUS badly which is an absolute waste of money. #auspol #welcomehere #noaukus
#BREAKING 🚨 Donald Trump says the US will “take over the Gaza Strip” and American troops will be deployed to Gaza “if it's necessary”
He made the remarks at a press conference with Benjamin Netanyahu, who says Trump is the “greatest friend Israel has ever had in the White House”

The less discussed AUKUS Pillar 2 effectively cuts Australia off from technology around the rest of the world, tying us to the US.
When you look at what other countries in Asia are achieving, is it really in our interest to sign up for this AUKUS technology straightjacket?
