    Our hearts broke and our lives changed forever. But we are proud of our beautiful Jack. He died doing something he loved and in service to his country. Overwhelmed by expressions of love, sympathy and support, we say thanks. Lest we Forget ❤️

    Replying to @AustralianLabor
    I’m a proud member of the Labor Party and remain committed to its ideals and objectives but I do not want to be associated with this tweet

    Barnaby Joyce, the bloke who stuffed-up drought policy for 4 years and remains a #ClimateChange denier is now Morrison’s “Drought Envoy”!Whatever that is? #joke #auspol

    3 Federal Court judges have overturned a finding that the Australian government has a duty of care to protect children from harms caused by climate change when assessing mining projects. It’s an important decision at law and a welcome victory for common sense. #proportionality

    There isn’t much I haven’t seen in politics but watching Queensland’s Labor women lining up to introduce themselves as successful candidates and soon-to-be MPs is one of the most incredible things I’ve witnessed! Congratulations to them all.

    Farmers applying for #drought assistance have to fill out more paperwork than did the Great Barrier Reef Foundation for its $443 million @Tony_Burke #insiders #auspol

    Barnaby Joyce has no shame. For 4 years he presided over inadequate #drought assistance, misled Parliament to exaggerate drought measures, then doctored his Hansard to cover up. Now 5 years on & pre-election he says it needs fixing! @dailytelegraph

    When Climate Change denier Barnaby Joyce was made Drought Envoy he was given 2 extra staff, additional resources, & more travel entitlements. But what did he do? Now we learn he didn’t even deliver a report! #fail
