I am incredibly disappointed to hear of the outcome of the Qantas link base review that will result in the closures of Hobart, Mildura and Canberra bases.   These bases are more than regional hubs, they provide local jobs and critical connectivity to our regions.

Wish I could talk about the teaching and research achievements of our members but nonetheless was great to join former colleague Sue Wright, debunking the excuses of the vice-chancellors’ lobby group for management’s bad decisions

The people who are doing this to babies deserve comparison with the worst war criminals in history.

This Senate inquiry exposed a culture where secrecy was the norm, overpaid university executives treated public institutions like their own backyard, and consequences were rare for misadventure. ANU is a textbook case: tone-deaf restructures, staff unrest, and a vice-chancellor

Justice Rangiah in his own words in Lattouf v ABC penalty decision. The broadcaster has been ordered to pay $150,000. I was previously awarded $70,000 for hurt and distress. ABC has spent in excess of $2 million on legal fees. The real cost to Aunty is immeasurable.

Tantrums of the Privileged Right Let’s drop the myth: the young men drifting to the far-Right aren’t victims of inequality. Most come from privilege. What drives them isn’t hardship but resentment, fury that the status they think they deserve never arrived. As McKenzie &

Many anticipated an announcement yesterday. If this is being held up while millionaires negotiate how many more millions they'll take from a public university, after all this damage to @ourANU, that is about as damning an indictment on university governance as you can get. 😡

Vice-chancellors will face the Senate inquiry into university governance on Monday. They have very serious questions to answer about shocking governance failures on their watch. So far we've seen no meaningful action from VCs to fix governance. Reform is urgent.

The misappropriation of the Eureka flag is a sorry sight. For union workers & their families it symbolises working class solidarity. Lately, bastardised by divisive racists as a jingoistic symbol of cringe Australiana. Don’t forget its origin story 👇

Fair antidote to the protests to see Sydney turn it on like only Sydney can, with enormous crowds soaking it all in to watch a Muslim refugee lay her claim as one of the greatest runners the world has ever seen.

Was there ever any doubt 😍 What an athlete Sifan Hassan is 👑

Australia should consider itself fortunate to have such courageous leaders of community who also happen to be world-class cricketers in @Uz_Khawaja & @patcummins30. Two men who are prepared to speak up on their beliefs & stick their necks out to make the world a better place

This week just keeps getting better.

Today’s Federal Court penalty against Qantas confirms what thousands of unlawfully outsourced employees already knew: they were sacked in a ruthless, calculated act of corporate cost-cutting. And there is no ambiguity about who backed this from day one: the former

TEQSA has now written to the ANU advising its “investigation had been expanded to include ‘broader risks to compliance’ including the culture of the ANU Council and executive leadership, and oversight of its financial position”. Good.

The Israeli Authorities are starving civilians in #Gaza. Among them are 1 million children. Lift the siege: allow UNRWA to bring in food and medicines.

This rally, and the CASS People's Town Hall, were excellent today. Both showed the best of @ourANU.

This unprecedented intervention is a damning indictment of the governance crisis engulfing not just ANU, but universities around the country. Such a massive win for @NTEUnion members fighting for governance reform. Time for national change!

The violent arrest and assault of union leader David Huerta by Trump’s goons is sickening. ¡Ya basta! Solidarity with the @SEIU @seiuusww https://t.co/IP23oQ58xv
