And we didn’t close that gap on the backs of working people. We closed it while funding parks, libraries, safer streets, & public housing.
Call it Pothole Politics or Democratic Socialism: We are government that delivers for the people.

Many tributes today for legendary ABC broadcaster James Valentine.
That he was able to avail himself of the Voluntary Assisted Dying laws enacted in NSW in 2023, is testament to the passion and advocacy of Andrew Denton, among SO many others.
A dignified leaving. For that, many thanks are due.
