    Here's an idea. Make ALL degrees cheaper, or even free. Entry to uni should not be based on your bank balance. #politas #auspol #Universities #TertiaryEducation

    The treatment of the Biloela family by the Australian Govt is shameful and illegal under international law. They should be released immediately and allowed to settle permanently in Australia. #HometoBilo #auspol #politas

    Great news from London - Julian Assange’s extradition to US denied by UK court. US President must rule out an appeal. UK PM must release him. And Oz PM must allow him to return home a free man. Assange was always the hero, not the villain #auspol #politas #FreeAssange

    I successfully moved a motion to recognise the importance of bringing Julian Assange’s extradition to an end. The Govt voted for it in an unprecedented show of political support for Julian. The US must heed these calls & drop the extradition. #FreeAssangeNOW #auspol #politas

    The decision by the UK Govt to approve extradition of Julian Assange to the US is an outrageous betrayal of rule of law, media freedom and human rights. @AlboMP must pick up the phone now and demand an end to this madness amp.abc.net.au/article/101115…. #FreeAssangeNOW #auspol #politas

    3000 visas for evacuated Afghans is too little too late. And taking them from the existing humanitarian quota is heartless. We helped make this mess, we must help clean it up. #auspol #politas

    Again the UK proves it’s a lackey of the US, and that Australia is delighted to go along for the ride. But the truth is Julian Assange is the only one doing the right thing here. A mystery how the arseholes in London, Washington and Canberra sleep at night. #auspol #JulianAssange

    Tomorrow I’ll formally table in parliament my bill to allow asylum seeker and refugee children on Nauru, and their families, to be evacuated to Australia for medical treatment. It’ll be there ready to go when Kerryn Phelps joins the crossbench. AW #auspol #politas #KIDSOFFNAURU

    Dreadful news from the UK that Julian Assange is too unwell to front court. He shouldn’t be in Belmarsh and the UK Government’s refusal to release him is unconscionable #FreeAssange #auspol #politas

    Julian Assange has suffered enough. It's time to end this geopolitical madness. The man's an Australian. He's not an American. He wasn't in the US when he spoke out about war crimes. Put simply, he must be allowed to return to Australia. #politas #auspol andrewwilkie.org/julian-assange…

    The hand-wringing today by the Oz Govt and others is hypocrisy on steroids. They’re the very same people condemning the whistleblowers, lawyers and journalists revealing war crimes etc, eg Julian Assange, Witness K & Bernard Collaery, ADF lawyers and the ABC #auspol #freeassange

    Julian Assange’s trial is expected to end this week. It’s more important than ever the Aus Govt intervenes to stop this injustice & return him to Aus. All Assange did was publish hard evidence of US war crimes & he is lauded as a hero, not a villain #FreeAssange #auspol #politas

    The treatment of this Tamil family from #Biloela by the Australian Govt has been deplorable. It’s time to end this madness. #politas #auspol #HometoBilo #Biloela

    If Fed Parliament can’t sit physically, then it sure could convene virtually. There’s been more than enough time to organise to do so. Is it 2020 or 1920? No wonder politics, political parties and politicians are held in such low regard nowadays #auspol #politas #FederalICACNOW
