Today in #MelsMigrationMadness? Removal of 10 cubic meters (via Stuart) of life detritus to landfill, which really brings the impact of ‘fast furniture & fashion’ home to a personal level. So many trips to various charity shops to try & keep goods in the circular economy. Stuart with mask, standing ...

*PHEW* Just got word via email that the pets have landed safely in Manchester and are on their way to Grandma’s house. We’ve also had lots of gushing messages and cute pics from Big Dog’s new parents in Seymour 🥰 #MelsMigrationMadness Image
So, we’ve hit the road for Day 2 of the drive to Sydney and just crossed the Border into NSW. #MelsMigrationMadness
On the way home from dropping off the Prado to a new home…. Locky D in Sydney is totes Kosher…. #MelsMigrationMadness
Wow, ghost town at Sydney Airport. The taxi driver (who was from a war torn part of the world) was incredulous that we were leaving ‘this freedom land’ and told me I had to return. I replied ‘I need to live away for ten years to fall in love with the idea of my country again’. Image
Arrived in Singapore. Escorted from plane to a transfer area in a conga line by folks in full PPE. Transfer area contains the grand total of one coffee cart as the retail opportunity. We are to be called then escorted onto our LHR flight soon. #MelsMigrationMadness
Slight delay out of Singapore, due to Middle East Crisis, forcing a re-route #MelsMigrationMadness
Arrived safe at LHR…. Zombie Apocalypse vibe here too. Shortest queue at the Border ever. Only a 3.5 hour drive to go 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫#MelsMigrationMadness
I hope you have enjoyed travelling vicariously during #MelsMigrationMadness and that Australian LockyD improves soon

It’s because anyone who refuses to let go of their principles to assimilate into the shallow mediocrity of post-Howard era Australian Society, gets beaten up by bullies. In related news, I’m migrating to the UK and am unlikely to return to my native Oz as my leadership….
…made too many uncomfortable as it exposed their petty biases and intellectual laziness to ‘do the work’ to improve themselves. Instead? I was punished for being ‘outspoken’. I think you’ll find I was just ‘spoken’ but due to misogyny (explicit and internalised) I was shunned.
Well Australia, I gave you 10 years to see my value…. And you didn’t see I had anything to offer. So the Brain that drained the UK in the last Recession 1999 who then returned after the GFC in 2011 is now draining again in 2021. I’m not the first and after the Uni culture wars

So, I’ve recently applied for two jobs at @CSIRO in Geelong. One is to grow #SARSCoV2 in a space suit as a jobbing Virologist. Pay? $65-90k plus Super. The other is to be an ‘innovation consultant’ like I did for the Quango I used to work for. Pay? 120k-135k plus super.
All that is WRONG with the current Federal Government approach to the STEM industries is nearly encapsulated in the above tweet. I’m sorry @karenandrewsmp but this situation is wrong. My virology skills & knowledge should be highly valued in these times. Not my schmoozing skills
I have also applied for two jobs advertised in Victoria (one based in Geelong) by a Quango outsourcing the @IndustryGovAu Accelerating Commercialisation program, to help fledgling MedTech Pharma businesses. Pay for State Director Role? 150k -200k and for the GM in GTown? 120-135k
