I went to a GP yesterday - for the first time in about 10 years - because it was probably about time for a checkup. 😬

Strangely, I was amazed by the level of service and advice (on allergies mainly), value for money, and even speed of Medicare contribution, which arrived in my account hours later.

Then picked up prescription (PBS lowered to only cost me $0.50 per day) for new allergy treatment.

We have a pretty good health care system yeah?

Haha, that’s a funny thing to say? I’m pretty sure it’s OK for the Australian Government to use whatever surveillance camera they’d like 😄

Crazy to hear about the extent of threats and vitriol against Ardern. I hope these people are able to be tracked down and held responsible for their unlawful actions.

Dutton doesn’t seem to be all that well-versed in PR. 😁

Many reasons why people dislike Pell, and I don’t think you’ll get many brownie points by protection his tarnished reputation.
