@NickMcKim In the past I had leaders in the climate movement telling me we needed to be patient. Instead at GetUp we often pulled the trigger on mass protests. Each got huge turn outs & interest from the govt. Feels like we forgot that we still have an enemy in the fossil fuel industry.

Hopefully the platform that Senator Thorpe has will embarrass state governments and others into action. So many basic things to move on right away. No reason to wait for voice to get moving on these things.

Isn’t the point that a big positive public show of support for the voice will build momentum for treaty? #qanda

@Peter_Fitz @Milliganreports Let’s hope local schools step up to help kids have as smooth an exit as possible as they leave. A friend of mine was so close to enrolling his daughter last year. Grateful that it didn’t work out!

Very sad news. RIP Professor Steffen. A giant of the climate science community.

I have no words to express my deep sadness for the loss of Will Steffen who passed away last night. He had been one of the most influential individuals in global change science programs, director of GCTE, IGBP, and driver of ESSP that led to the creation of the @gcarbonproject

Opus Dei has deep roots that go beyond NSW. When I was running for the ACT Senate our team discovered the connections into the most senior members of the conservative Canberra Liberals. We chose not to make this public given the impact on the families involved.

September quarter energy market results are out. Great summary from ⁦@GilesParkinson⁩ Tl;dr renewables grew a lot, high gas and coal input costs drove prices up. reneweconomy.com.au/wind-and-solar…

When it comes to your money, tell fossil fuels to #FOFF. Flip Off Fossil Fuels from your super, power and bank.

@AntonyGreenElec Enjoying your updates! I’ve noticed nobody speaking about Bradfield. Is the independent there a chance? Seems to have at least done well enough to be an interesting story.

Just tuned in to @SkyNewsAust for the latest shouting match. Incredible. Bronwyn Bishop is arguing that Libs should try to steal elections in the future by changing the system and throwing out preferential voting. It’s like the US republicans - if we can’t win, rig the rules.

Thank goodness for some sense from @abccanberra tv tonight. Finally saying what was obvious last night. @pocockdavid can’t lose from here. Far too many progressive preference flows. The Canberra Liberals have to return back to a more progressive future as they rebuild.

It’s not getting much coverage but we’ve got a huge right wing vote in the northern rivers that could mean prefs flow to the discredited local Nats candidate pushing them above the ALP, leading to Labor preferences electing @mandy_4richmond and giving the Greens another seat.

@domknight Ultimately it can be tested on the floor of the house so checks and balances exist to ensure the system works

@toconnor I reckon they’ll get to 75. Either way a very workable number (the Morrison government has been running on 75).

This would have been the perfect moment for @HonJulieBishop if she was in the Parliament. She would have been the perfect leader to rebuild the modern Liberal party. Perhaps they need to draft her back!
