3. Good start for the sitting LNP MP in @the_chronicle_ exit poll on day 1 of #GroomVotes pre-polling. Please follow @GillespieTom17, who’s on the ground for the Toowoomba daily.
@SuzieHolt4Groom is third after Labor.

1. An Australian second wave feminist icon, @takingalongview, with the perfect and timely title for her memoire.

2. I met Wendy as a university student when I was Quentin Bryce’s children-sitter. Quentin was Qld’s Rep on Malcolm Fraser’s National Women’s Advisory Council and Wendy rep’d NSW. Dame Beryl Beaurepaire chaired the Council.

3. The next time I saw Wendy was at the @drkerrynphelps’ by-election night party on October 20, 2018. Wendy chaired Kerryn’s campaign for #WentworthVotes.
1. @SenatorRennick not up for re-election. LNP chose him, a stain on the Party & more proof it swung hard fundamentalist right since the merger &’crushed its liberal wing.
Ground zero for liberalism’s fightback is @SuzieHolt4Groom’s #IndependentsDay campaign at #GroomVotes

2. LNP now expects liberals to vote for Canavan, 2 on Senate ticket - despite his pledge to do everything he can to oppose net zero by 2050.
Canavan - a mate of LNP MP, is central to the push to convert #GroomVotes from a Liberal MP in Canberra to Nats.
My @SatPaper report:-

My @SatPaper report:-
3. No surprise the that Canavan leads a smear campaign on @SuzieHolt4Groom kicked off by a @couriermail hit. The LNP MP says nothing.
Your move, Ms Holt.

I met @renewhughes on Zoom during the @indigocathy gathering of ‘Voices for’ members in February, which became the @CommunityIndeps project.
We really met at the Canberra #march4justice afterparty - there were quite a few ‘Voices for’ founders there, Sydney and regional. /1

I was intrigued by her story - an architectural communications specialist on Olympics & ICCs locked down no work deciding to stop angsting about Craig Kelly & gather a community together to stand an independent. So #transitzone interviewed her in May. /2

2. The @HumansOfHughes community #IndependentsDay launch is at the Bonnet Bay football club on the Waronora River. And who do I see? @lindadoherty21 & I were on the @smh 2001 #ausvotes team; she now freelances for @CroakeyNews, run by former @smh health reporter @MelissaSweetDr
3. They’re lining up for the announcement of the @HumansofHughes community #IndependentsDay candidate plus sausage sizzle.

731. Extraordinary stuff from Frydenberg, triumphalist Back in Black back boaster before last #ausvotes. SURELY with a record breaking deficit and covid widening income inequality the sane thing to do is delay or abolish the stage 3 tax cuts. Nope - let’s cut tax more!
732. B McKenzie demands the Clean Energy Finance Corporation finance carbon capture & storage research (a fantasy) to sustain coal mining. The mining industry hasn’t done it because it can’t be done. This is AWFUL, & she confirms there’s STILL no bloody plan!
#IndependentsDay!

733. The fix is in. If carbon capture and storage was viable big fossil fuel companies would have found a way by now. Yet to pretend to act on climate change the Govt INCREASES taxpayer already massive subsidies to the fossil fuel industry.

8. Searingly honest and revelatory account of the a good journalist’s internal voices on a story like this, and the external constraints on publication. I RELATED BIG TIME.
Superb, Tory. I would have made the same decision as you for the same reason, until she’ ready let it be.

10. Backgrounder thread by @CroweDM on the NSW Police statement closing its investigation.
1. I’m gunna go mad obsessively Twitter-following the election = anxiety and apocalyptic theories in why Trump will win.
I am now Panicked by the entry of energy policy in the mix. Our nightmare on climate change ensures that.

2. @TimAlberta is a political journo steeped in GOP politics. A must follow, but jeez, writing Biden’s victory analysis before the election makes my Irish bones ache. Lovely piece of writing, and interesting.
3. LOVE IT! Ivanka & Jared work for the Trump Swamp Family. Fine for the boss to maliciously throw baseless mud that Biden is head of a crime family & must be indicted. But tie THEM to Trump’s anti-NY invective & they’ll SUE!!! (Trump can’t be sued for defo while in office.)
