No response from the Conservative party to my questions about this and the post still remains on her account.

So apparently openly spreading anti-Muslim hate is absolutely fine now

This is off the top of my head.

These sorts of inefficiencies happen on quite literally a daily basis. Everybody in the system knows this. Everyone.

Yet what is the government’s diagnosis?

“Juries. They are the problem. Get rid of juries.”

It is absolutely mind-boggling.

Here is a list of reasons why some of my hearings and trials this year have been delayed and kicked off into the long grass, stuck in our record court backlog. Serious allegations which will now be tried *years* after the event. 🧵👇

Magic. 10 years ago I was diagnosed with cancer caused by HPV I wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy. Science is amazing 🤩
A *huge* vaccine victory. I've been writing on this for years; Australia has seen remarkable progress in cervical cancer prevention with the HPV vaccine. I love seeing science triumph like this.
Australia recorded ZERO cases of cervical cancer in women under 25 for the first time since they started tracking the cancer in the 80s.

This is the power of vaccines.

The HPV vaccine is extremely effective at preventing cancer.

Viruses can be oncogenic. Get your vaccines and protect yourself!

Labour MPs are celebrating the removal of the 2 child benefit cap as a victory for 300k living, in poverty... shame they weren't thinking of them when they shamefully voted to continue it last year.
People in this country are suffering, millions of kids are still in poverty. Do better Labour. Now. 💚

The review makes clear that dogs are suffering because the puppy trade remains badly under-regulated.

We need stronger protections and proper enforcement to stop this harm.

I don’t want this to be imported from the USA. These are human beings worthy of dignity. Appalling.
Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.

The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.
