Niki says some seemingly gotcha questions are legit and some are performative attention seeking by the journos. It's not beyond each side to feed questions to journos during press conferences.

Greg asks why did everyone get so obsessed with "the gaff"? Sometimes a single image can cut through to voters in the social media age. These can be quite trivial things.

Greg says the campaigning has been superficial and image focused. The media has just "had to cop it". "I wish we had more leaders debates and I wish they went for at least 1.5 hours each."

For all the thousands of supporters who couldn't be with us in person on Saturday night. Never let it be said that a small group of determined people united behind a common goal cannot achieve extraordinary things!

As CEO of the McGrath Fdn I fought for our Breast Care Nurses for 6yrs: work conditions, training & salaries. The day our first Masters-qualified nurse graduated the (then) Fed Health Minister cautioned me not to hire ppl who were “too qualified” because they’d cost more.

I’m a nurse practitioner working in specialist palliative aged care. Let me share with you just a little bit about what happens in a residential aged care facility/‘nursing home’ that doesn’t have registered nurses 24/7 365 days of the year.

Remember when the government formed a COVID commission and all it did was help the gas industry? And then it appointed a Lieutenant General to run the COVID taskforce, instead of a doctor? Vote them out. #IndependentsDay

Niki says there should be more debates. People need access to the leaders to ask the questions they care about. One debate is not enough, that's not on.

Federal parliament ended the year in shambles. Another minister accused of abuse. Two more MPs resign. A report finds 33% of parliamentary workers are sexually harassed. Here's what should have happened. #teamtink #auspol #independentsday

Did you know Australia doesn’t have a federal Human Rights Act that protects our human rights in law? It‘s the only liberal democracy in the world without a Human Rights Act. As a member of the Parliamentary Committee I hoping we can work together to get this changed #auspol

Today’s result is a huge vote of no confidence for the Northern Beaches Tunnel and its impacts on the local community. Independents, just like @larissa4willgby , are giving the current ‘leaders’ a run for their money. We deserve better. #auspol #nswpol #willoughby

The ‘diabolical’ event that has thrown this safe Liberal seat into doubt

They say at every federal election there’s usually a surprise. Some wonder if this time it could be North Sydney.

Rising gas prices hurt because we are a decade behind on the transition to renewable & sustainable energy. We’re one of the largest gas suppliers in the world, yet we are still at the mercy of international markets. It doesn’t make any sense. #auspol
