So Dutton concludes his Closing the Gap speech with β€œIf we continue to do more of the same, we will only get more of the same.” Wasn’t that what the Voice to Parliament was designed to address?

As 2023 draws to a close so does my time at The Sydney Morning Herald & The Age. I am going to miss working alongside some dear colleagues from Canberra to London who, over the last decade, have become true friends and lifelong confidantes. A big thanks to Darren Goodsir who upon hiring me said: 'I've been wanting to hire you for years." Still one of the nicest things anyone has ever said to me. Happy New Year everyone, may all those embarking on new beginnings in 2024 be bestowed with opportunities, happiness and health. βœ¨πŸ’œ – at London, England
