The ICJ has ruled that govts and orgs are obliged not to lend any form of support to illegal Israeli settlements in Palestine. So I again implore the Aus Govt to take meaningful action to hold Israel to account. To do anything less makes us complicit. #politas #auspol

I successfully moved a motion to recognise the importance of bringing Julian Assange’s extradition to an end. The Govt voted for it in an unprecedented show of political support for Julian. The US must heed these calls & drop the extradition. #FreeAssangeNOW #auspol #politas

Gambling regulation in Aus is a national disgrace. The govt has ignored the Murphy Report & repeatedly blocked my bill to hold gambling giants accountable. If they won’t listen to evidence, experts or the crossbench, they should at least listen to the community. #auspol #politas

I’m no fan of the Iranian regime, but the attacks on Iran are patently illegal. It’s galling that rather than standing up in defence of international law, the Prime Minister and Foreign Minister have as good as cheered the US and Israel on for this latest illegal action. #auspol

The housing crisis was fuelled by overly generous CGT and negative gearing concessions. I supported today’s changes as I’ve long campaigned for reform. As things stand at the moment however the Gov has much work to do to get the rest (e.g. trust changes) done right #auspol

Aus is supposed to be a country where the rule of law & natural justice applies. The Gov’s sneaky attempt to strip welfare from people before they’ve been convicted of any crime is a fundamental breach of these principles. We may as well dissolve the court system #auspol #politas

My Human Rights Bill tabled today spells out in plain terms, the rights and freedoms that everyone in Australia is entitled to. It requires that fairness, respect, dignity and compassion must be put at the centre of all government decision and polices. #auspol #politas

Israel is engaged in an intentional and systematic military campaign against the people of Palestine. The Fed Govt must rule out any further arms trade with Israel until it's clear no Australian materiel can be used to perpetrate genocide #auspol #politas

That at least one salmon farming company in Tas has been in the practice of processing dead & diseased fish for human consumption is appalling. There must be an independent inquiry because it’s clear we can’t trust the fish on our supermarket shelves #auspol #politas

I didn’t vote for the social media ban; the real issue has always been tech companies allowing harmful behaviour to run rampant on their platforms. But with the ban in place, the Govt mustn’t forget to ensure social media platforms also clean up their act. #auspol #politas

The Gov’s FOI bill makes it harder for the public to access info and easier for govs to hide it. Protecting public servants’ frank and fearless advice is an excuse, covering up gov missteps and mischief is the reality. My experience in 2003 tells that story. #auspol #politas

It’s 2yrs since the Robodebt Royal Commission & we are yet to see the Fed Gov legislate to stop it happening again. Well, I’ve now done the work for them & urge the Gov to come to the table on these reforms. We cannot allow a repeat of this shameful part of Aus history #auspol

The Electoral Reform Bill should be renamed the Funnelling Public Money to the Major Parties Under the Guise of Transparency Bill 2024. The major parties have the gall to push this reform, so they should stand up and call it for what it is. #politas #auspol
