For twenty years, I’ve fought for workers and their families. I want to take all I’ve learnt, and all I believe, into the Tasmanian Parliament as a member of the Tasmanian Labor team. Here’s a bit about me 👇 #politas #auspol #tasmania #workersrights

As a Tasmanian who is pretty engaged in politics, now seems like a very ill timed moment to hop on a plane and be without internet. You’ll tell me what happens, right? #politas

The Tasmanian Premier, in a fight for his political future, has now apparently ruled out #privatisation he was spruiking just days ago. When politicians push a barrow for months/years then expect us to believe they’ve changed on the eve of an election, they’re taking us for fools #politas #auspol

Billionaires just work harder than the rest of us. Trickle down economics works. If you have a go, you’ll get a go. Sacking 41,000 public servants won’t hurt services to the community. Peter Dutton would be a caring and compassionate prime minister 😂

How about the Tasmanian Liberals focus on putting in the promised safety protections from two years ago on Metro buses instead of trying to sell our only public bus service to the highest bidder?? #politas #auspol #privatisation #proudtobepublic www.themercury.com.au/news/tasmani...

Hey Tassie friends. This is on today! 👇
We're rallying for #internationalwomensday at 12.30pm in Franklin Square. Because #IWD is a protest day, not a cupcake day. All welcome (except terfs, bigots, that sort of nonsense). We've got an amazing guest speaker in Ged Kearney too! #aupsol #politas

Meanwhile, the wages of the bottom 90% have seen just 44% growth.

I don’t think Peter Dutton intends to match Labor on increased bulk billing. Two reasons why:
1. As Health Minister, Dutton tried to introduce an extra fee for visiting the GP.
2. He wants to sack 36,000 public sector workers. Hot tip: public servants work for #Medicare #auspol

This is a great announcement. The cost of healthcare is a big contributor to financial pressure for families (especially if you have small kids or chronic illness). This is what good Labor governments do #auspol #medicare
