Hi #DisabilityTwitter thought I’d introduce myself for those who might not know me. I’m Jonathan, my preferred name is Jono, and I have Moebius Syndrome, a rare facial difference condition. I Tweet about politics (a lot) and disability related topics. :) Nice to meet you!

Is Labor perfect? No. Am I a fan of every single one of its policies? Also no. Is Anthony Albanese perfect? Absolutely not. But I’m buoyed by an actually competent front bench and a decency not seen for some time.
