Statements on Indulgence – Member for Kingston – Tuesday, 23 July 2019

Mr ALBANESE (Grayndler—Leader of the Opposition) (15:12): People will have noticed that the member for Kingston isn’t here. One of the things that has changed this parliament is new mums giving birth. I want to congratulate Amanda on the birth of Oscar Thomas Walker at 1.24 pm yesterday. We congratulate Amanda and the family. On behalf of the parliament, I wish Amanda, Oscar and the entire family, including Oscar’s older brother Percy, all the best.

You can’t be what you can’t see – and a whole generation of young girls won’t forget seeing this. The 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup is coming to Australia and New Zealand. #AsOne ⚽️

Science can light the way forward – but under this Government, Australia is stuck reaching for the dimmer. I want an Australia that invests in science – because investing in science is investing in the future.

For years, science has been a victim of the culture wars. It took a pandemic to snap us back to reality. We can build a better Australia after coronavirus – one where we listen to science instead of ignoring it. That’s Labor’s vision for the future.

‪This Government doesn't believe in scrutiny.‬ They refuse to answer the most basic questions about their illegal Robodebt scheme.‬ Australians deserve the truth – and only a Royal Commission will help us get the answers they deserve.‬

It was wrong. It was illegal. It can never be allowed to happen again.

It’s silent at the @enmore_theatre – and that silence is the sound of jobs being lost. The arts and entertainment industry has been abandoned by this Government. The question they have to answer is – why?

In Thredbo with @kristymcbain. This business owner says his EFTPOS machine has been used twice this year. Twice. People are struggling – but instead of having a plan to help them, this Government has a plan to kick people off the support that has got them through the pandemic.

This Government won't answer questions – so today during Question Time I took one from @edhusicmp. The Liberals and Nationals are using the cover of the pandemic to attack the public services that vulnerable Australians rely on #postalservice #jobs

‪Cleaners don’t always get the respect and recognition they deserve. It’s on all of us to change that.‬ Loved putting on this afternoon tea for Parliament House cleaners for International Cleaners Day.‬ I don’t know how any of us could do our work without them.‬
