Shoebridge also blasted the “utterly pathetic” Coalition for flipping and backing in One Nation’s unconstitutional ISIS policy, just like they did on the duty of care/social media legislation yesterday.

On Sept. 16, 2024, Emily Waldorf’s daughter found her curled on the floor, bleeding during a dangerous miscarriage at 17 weeks pregnant.
Waldorf and her husband rushed to an Arkansas hospital, expecting emergency care.
Instead, doctors said they could not intervene under the state’s abortion ban.
