The alternatives to a two state solution are either a monstrosity or a fantasy.
Today’s Knesset resolution would condemn Israelis and Palestinians to an endless cycle of violence.
A secure and prosperous future for both Israelis and Palestinians will only come with a two-state solution.
A Palestinian state alongside the State of Israel.
Today’s Knesset vote denies this reality.
All parties need to show the leadership necessary to reengage in a peace process aimed at the only practical, enduring resolution to this conflict - a two state solution.
This morning I visited @MoAD_Canberra, where I had a tour of the recently refurbished House of Reps Chamber. I also dropped into a school visit by Comleroy Road Public School from @stemplemanmp’s electorate of Macquarie. We spoke about democracy and held a quick Question Time.
I’m calling this out for what it is: a complete misrepresentation of the facts.
As confirmed in Estimates today, the $1.5m referred to in this video relates to a single item used by the ADF - going overseas for manufacture, before subsequently returning to Australia for our use.
Lots of people have asked so here is a step-by-step guide on how to find information on the direct export and import of weapons between Israel and Australia.

We’re putting more planes and choppers in the sky to help keep people safe during floods, bushfires and cyclones.
All part of Labor’s plan to keep Australians and their homes safer during a natural disaster.
Modular homes are a missing part of housing policy - they could especially help in communities like mine that are bushfire and flood prone, for both new builds and rebuilds.
Minister for Science Ed Husic says prefab and modular housing could play “a big part” in getting homes built more quickly.
Germany has been utilising modular components to build high quality, high performance dwellings for decades. We need to catch up.

Very sorry to learn of the tragic death of a Richmond firefighter in Grose Vale. This will be felt throughout the Hawkesbury and emergency services community.
Incredibly sad news this morning…
Whilst trying to serve, support and protect the community, one of our firefighters has paid the ultimate sacrifice.
Thinking of his family and loved ones as well and members of the @FRNSW family during this awful and tragic time.
Vale.

Questions on core inflation in #qt today ... UK core inflation is 5.7% (lower than Australia's two measures). But UK core excludes energy and food. Food inflation in the UK running at 19.2%... An eg that core is useful to central banks, not to humans...
