I love sending letters to locals on big occasions

I love sending letters to locals on big occasions – and there aren't many bigger than the century. Happy birthday, Jane. It probably isn't the kind of celebration you were expecting, but we're all thinking of you. Older Australians built this country. They deserve our respect – always.

Today marks seven years of Liberal Government. Seven years of promises, but no delivery. Of being there for the photo opp, but never the follow up. Australians deserve better.

Vic runs a family business making truck bodies and trailers – along with his wife and two sons. Mike Freelander and I paid him a visit today.

Vic says they've got 16 staff on JobKeeper, but a further six are missing out because of the rules put in place by the Morrison Government.

People are being left behind by this Government. And when JobKeeper gets rolled back, even more people will be left behind.

We need high quality jobs like these to get us through the economic recovery. We need to hear less spin from the Government, and we need to see a plan for jobs.

It’s not every day that someone paints your portrait. It’s not every day that it gets shortlisted for the #ArchibaldPrize either. Congratulations @james_powditch on making the list of finalists 🎨

Our diversity is our strength. Congratulations to everyone becoming an Australian citizen today. Thank you for making our nation stronger.

Supermarket workers have kept the country going through the pandemic. They're on the frontline, and they deserve our thanks.

Marrickville Golf Course by the #cooksriver is a community asset used by golfers, walkers and #innerwestdogs - the proposal to cut it in half is regressive and disrespects the social capital built up over 8 decades - Toto and her friend @lewis_cavoodle meet there as does the community #savemarrickvillegolfclub 🏌🏽‍♀️🐶

Sydney Olympics. Opening ceremony. 20 years ago – right now.
I'll never forget it.

I love Marrickville.

I love Marrickville.

This is John. He’s a 94-year-old true believer and World War II veteran I met in Coffs Harbour last week. John told me that he first handed out for Labor in 1943 when John Curtin was running for re-election. Older Australians like John built this country. They deserve our respect – always. Thanks for your service, John.

Has there been a better opening track to a recent album than #happysong from @alex.the.astronaut debut album #thetheoryofabsolutelynothing ? Brilliant local artist #ithinkyouregreat #vinyl #ausmusic #sundaytunes

Today is Pride Round for the @newtownbreakaways – the first AFL club to start with a women's team and then introduce a men's team.

It’s World Suicide Prevention Day and I want to

It’s World Suicide Prevention Day and I want to talk about something that’s been in the news recently. Long – but it’s important. Many of you will have seen the horrific reports that a video of someone taking their own life has been circulating on on social media. Versions of the video have been designed specifically to target young people and lure them into watching it. Some of you may even know a young person who has seen the video – your child or one of their friends. We know that social media has so much potential to do so much harm. We saw that in horrifying clarity during the Christchurch massacre. After Christchurch, legislation was passed to compel the removal of “abhorrent violent content” from social media platforms – but we’ve now found out that the Government can’t force social media companies to remove videos like this one. Why? Because videos of suicide don’t fit the legal definition of “abhorrent violent content”. We’ve also heard this week that the eSafety Commissioner – the person charged with online safety – doesn’t have the resources she needs to do her job. We’ve got to do better than this. This isn’t about politics. We will work with the Government to fix this problem because we’ve got to keep our kids safe. #RUOKDay

As we chart our way out of the pandemic, we should

As we chart our way out of the pandemic, we should look to our regional communities. They’ve been dealing with isolation long before the coronavirus, and it’s their ingenuity and resilience that has seen them through. They deserve a government that backs them – and that’s exactly what Labor will do. Today I brought the Labor team to Coffs Harbour to unveil our vision for regional Australia – one that has jobs, infrastructure and education at its heart.

Speeches in the age of corona are a bit different.

Speeches in the age of corona are a bit different. Just stepped off the stage after delivering Labor’s vision for regional Australia. We need a plan for recovery – and infrastructure, education and manufacturing must be at its heart. Only a Labor Government can deliver it. #regions #regionalaustralia #infrastructure #jobs #aspiration
