As the Shadow Minister for Multicultural Affairs and on behalf of our #Jordan community, I visited the Brisbane Synagogue this morning to offer my deepest condolences for those who lost their lives in yesterday's terror attack.
Hanukkah is a time of joyous celebration that brings community together, a time which we recognise has been tarnished by violence and hatred.
Our hearts are breaking for our Jewish community who have been deeply impacted by this evil act of antisemitism.
We stand with you during this darkest of times. 🖤 ... See MoreSee Less

It was good to see so many queenslsnders rolling up their sleeves to give blood.
Thank you so much Charis Mullen MP. Our hearts also break with the Jewish community and we open our hearts and arms with a big community hug to all those grieving and impacted in these dark times. Our hope is for love, compassion, warmth, inclusion and understanding. A time to understand why, how we can all work together to create a community and future where this never happens again. Where every Australian, feels safe regardless of their beliefs or difference and where we learn, understand and reflect rationally and thoughtfully on what lead to this. I hope we consider what we can do differently as a community. I also hope that we resist knee jurk reactions and political point scoring that leads to division, hate, retribution and blame as this can only make things worse and not the world I want my grandkiddies to grow up in. 🖤
Well said Charis Mullen MP. Australian 🇦🇺 hearts are broken. We will never be able to understand this horrific event. These two individuals do not represent the Muslim people. They are extremists. Please people don't take this out on the Muslim community here in Australia. They are as appalled as we are and now have to be concerned about their safety. Be inclusive and kind.

Now what are you going to do about removing albo from postion??
Tonight I joined hundreds of our Jewish community in Brisbane to mark the start of Hanukkah.
It was a joyous occasion with the lighting of the menorah, symbolising light over darkness and the triumph of good over evil.
But sadly tonight, darkness and division has prevailed following the shocking tragedy unfolding in Bondi.
My thoughts and prayers are with our Jewish community on what should have been a night of celebration. 💙 ... See MoreSee Less

At the end of the day, there are no words 🥲I hope that the positive and caring vibes reach everyone affected and that they know the actions of a few do not reflect the caring thoughts we have for the Jewish community, for everyone really in our community, we want an Australia that is united, build on love and kindness and supportive of all ❤️
In a world burdened by hate, the only way forward—the only way to overcome those who choose to be destructive—is through unity, respect, and love. We must not allow tragedies like Bondi Beach to divide us. Division only hands victory to those who thrive on harm. Together, in solidarity and compassion, we ensure that the bad never prevail.Sending out love and hugs to all.

The Elf thought it might be nice to give you all a little hint or two about some of his locations.
👍While he was swinging on the rope, he noticed there was a lovely logo behind him. The GREEN really sets it off... don't you think? 🤔
✌ Before tapping on for his journey home, Elf noted that even though this location is less central, it's super convenient for some students!
OK, one more hint... you can edit your answers up until the comp closes tonight (Sunday 14 Dec) at 11.59pm 😉 ... See MoreSee Less

It was such a privilege to be invited to speak at the Amani Community Centre Australia International Women’s Conference today in #Logan
The topic “Women at the Heart of National Progress: Leadership, Legacy and Family” allowed me to reflect on the incredible contributions of our multicultural women in Queensland.
I was also delighted to see young women at the Conference using their voice to advocate for their communities both here and abroad.
