I've made a tribute page for Mum.

Most who follow me never met her, but I imagine all of you have been affected by cancer in one way or another.

NAIDOC 2025: A Voice To Parliament Finally Achieved

Last week, UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese made headlines across the world for exposing the dozens of companies that she says have profited from Israel’s genocide in Gaza.

Albanese’s UN report, ‘From Economy of Occupation to Economy of Genocide,’ goes beyond just the typical weapons-manufacturing culprits, and calls out financial institutions, educational institutions, and Big Tech companies.
