An "environmental & economic imperative" 'eh @KatieAllenMP ?

Let's unpack this statement from you.

And a couple of others you've made since 2019.

And let's talk about how you've lived up to your promises.

Despite what you say, actions speak louder than words.

Despite you knowing there is a #ClimateEmergency, you've consistently voted against #ClimateAction

Your sole achievement on CC is joining the Parliamentary Friends for Climate Action
🐝
#auspol #insiders
But, for me, what is far more galling is how you campaigned on mental health.

You used youth suicide to solicit votes in 2019, you said Higgins was getting $16.5 million to expand mental health services.

How's that working out Katie?
🐝
#auspol #insiders
Here's a map of Higgins & a map of Headspace locations (with a rough map of Higgins overlaid)

Where's the promised Headspace for Higgins Katie?
🐝
#auspol #insiders
I mean it's not like Headspace has been short of a quid lately.

They got a top-up to $87 million

And given the fact we're in a once-in-a-100-year-pandemic which has REALLY affected youth mental health - your broken promises to Higgins are disgusting
🐝
#auspol #insiders
You have been an utter failure on the election promises you made in 2019 @KatieAllenMP

Pretending act on climate change & mental health now is just too little, too late.

You've squandered your chance to deliver on your 2019 promises, you've lied to us.
🐝
#auspol #insiders
You don't deserve to hold your seat.

Australia doesn't have time for climate action liars, we have to act NOW.

And Australia doesn't have the stomach for politicians who use suicide to solicit votes then fail to deliver on that promise.

We deserve better

I rent, I had a scheduled inspection a couple of wks ago.

I have a lovely property agent & agency. Over the last few years we've built up a rapport whenever I've seen my PA from time to time.

Last time she came she told me that she won't be my property agent anymore

#auspol
Disappointed, I asked why?

She said "I've thought about it for a while & I've decided to go into sales, this is the direction I want my career to go".

I told her that even though I'll miss her, I wish her every success in the world.
🐝
#auspol
And, I told her how beautifully empowering it was to just hear her speak that way.

This is exactly what the women of my age fought for, so young women, our daughters & granddaughters can make these plans for their lives, their families, their careers. Their choice.

OK Tweeps, we all know a fed election is coming

I want to represent the ppl, but I'm just a normal person, but broke as fuck

I'd be up against Bert van Manen, in Forde QLD, he's a vanilla candidate easily beaten by someone like me with audacity & passion
🐝
#auspol
Let's plan this

To take on the LNP I'm gonna need money & support, lots of it.

I'm willing to do this but only if my community supports me.

I'm a proud Labor member but my problem is that even if Labor takes me on I'll always have a higher obligation to my community ...
🐝
than to my party, that doesn't mean I don't support my party it just means I have a higher obligation to the Australian ppl & Forde. I'll vote along ALP lines but if elected by my community then I owe a greater obligation to them, my party second. That's OK

If a sitting Minister defied #bonkban & thus breached Ministerial standards would u want to know?

Or do u think an MP/Minister's private life is hers/his own?

Just asking bcuz we have sitting a Minister who has defied the #bonkban & still has his job

What to do?
🐝
#auspol
Ok, I'll spill the beans

David Littleproud is in a relationship with Annabelle Douglas- started in 2018

Turnbull introduced #bonkban Feb 18- Littleproud replaced Barnaby Joyce Feb 18- hence the big cover-up of his relationship with HIS media advisor in 18
🐝
#auspol #insiders
Notice the difference in LinkedIn records back then & now- Ms Douglas has taken steps to cover-up her employment history with Minister Littleproud

By rights, Littleproud should've lost his job in 2018 for his Ministerial breach- he didn't, still has his job

Okie dokie #auspol

I took one for the team & transcribed Morrison's speech to ACC National Conference, all 23:20 mins of it!

A few words were inaudible but I got the vast majority of the PM's ecclesiastical word salad

Here's the transcript, hope you're sitting down

I don't know what the answer to the epidemic of DV in Australia is, but I've had a go & thought of some ideas to throw into the mix for discussion

I'm intimately familiar with this subject, an intimacy brought about by experience

I believe we can solve this
🐝
#auspol #insiders
1. 10 days paid DV leave for victims with 10-20 hours of free intensive counselling over those 10 days.

#auspol #insiders
2. 10 days paid DV leave for perpetrators with daily or twice daily check-ins at a police station and 20 hours of free intensive counselling over those 10 days.

This 10 day period is critical to diffuse tensions.
