Retired teacher, fearful for my grandchildren. Always vote left. Love gardening, chooks, 3 rescue dogs. Learning yukulele. Hate housework, but it seems that now I'm old, I can get help with that. On Wulgurukaba and Bindal land. No DMs.

Thank you for inviting me to speak about our shared values at the UK Labor Conference today, Prime Minister Starmer.
When John Howard was Prime Minister, he participated in many International Democracy Union events overseas from 1996 onwards. He even was elected the chair in 2002 while Prime Minister so attended its annual forum overseas every year as Prime Minister. The sheer desperation of this #auspol beat-up
