1/ Australia and in particular #DicksonVotes I give you Peter Duttons contribution to our democracy in 2021.
Including his belief that
"Debating in parliament is a contest of ideas"
Warning: Contains Nuclear Grade Hypocrisy

2/ Some fun history👇
The "No Longer Heard" motion was created in 1905, when speeches had no time limits. Its creation was controversial & PM Deakin said "It should rarely, if ever be used & never for partisan purposes".
He never imagined this mutant variant of a government.
3/
Its 1st used was @ 5:30am, an all-night sitting for estimates, debate went from £1M pound naval ships to "Uniform Penny Post"
The UK had begun “Penny Post” to Aus in 1905, our parliament didn't approve it until 1911
Things were getting heated in the chamber with one member♨️

The room is starting to fill.

Apparently the chap who moderates the forum does a very good job. Very fair, very unbiased.

My MP, Peter Dutton, says Ali France is using disability as an excuse to not move into the electorate.

What a surprise! He's ableist too.

It's not an 'excuse'

You see, she can't spend too long on the prosthetic leg. Uses a wheelchair.

So, needs a W/C accessible home.

Costs lots. Bathroom, kitchen, no stairs.

Costs lots. Dutton doesn't get that. Because he's a multi millionaire. Owns lots of properties.

Disabled folk know about the costs. Normal folk don't have millions to throw around.

For me, the question becomes, who represents us better... ?

It's the one who lives with adversity. She gets it. Dutton doesn't.

It's no excuse, she just can't afford it.

I need a new MP.

My Dear Australians, Thank you for your kind messages of Support.
As you may know I write this from Detention, & i have taken a serious risk to my own safety by publishing this.
I write all these facts under oath,& will be happy to give evidence to any Court or Senate Committee.
& I know for a fact that now Dutton will come for me & target me real hard, a risk I'm willing to take to expose what Dutton doesn't want you to know & the Truth.

All I ask of u is call your local MP & @ShayneNeumannMP & DEMAND that they Question Dutton about this 'William' Case
