Facebook reminded me this morning that 3 years ago, I was in Canberra with fellow volunteers to hear #AllegraSpender's first speech to Parliament.

Today, I released the podcast episode of my Tall and True blog post about why I volunteered again for Allegra in 2025 and how I ended up with a heart-shaped teal tattoo. 🩵

Starting a blog post today on my involvement in the campaign to reelect my local independent MP, #AllegraSpender. It's also a chance to reflect on my previous campaigning (1/3): My Week in Politics (October 2018). 🗳️

My Week in Politics

For years, I've sat and watched Australian politics stumble from one self-obsessed stuff-up to the next. In the past week, I stood up and took action.

This popped up in my FB timeline memories today. 3 years ago I heard Allegra speak at a Politics in the Pub event and signed up to spend 6 weeks in teal supporting her 2022 campaign. 3 years on, I'm proud to be one of her area coordinators supporting her re-election! 🩵 #AllegraSpender #auspol #independent
