So good to see all the bars and pubs at capacity in #Launceston. The economic impact from the #FooFighters will be such a great boost to our local businesses!

@themercurycomau you have got to be kidding with this headline. Teachers don’t diagnose children in the NCCD collection - adjustments made r collected 2 work out federal funding & then states distribute the funding using their models. #Politas #GetYourFactsStraight #SoMadRightNow
A huge congratulations to the Waratah Wynyard Local Government Professionals Australasian Management Challenge team who took out the Australasian Final today! As the Tas LG Pro President I couldn’t be prouder of the great Local Government Professionals in Tas. #Politas
Sooo quick #Politas question, have the appropriation bills passed yet? I don’t think they have but want to be sure.If the no confidence motion passes and we head to an election without the budget being passed what happens to all the nurses, teachers then ? Does no budget =no pay?
It’s always a sad day when politicians seek to override the democratically elected government. If we go to another election people will make clear how they feel about going back to the polls so soon and it may not be the result most expect. #Politas
Tasmania’s Local Government #ManagementChallange regional final is underway thanks to Local Government Professionals Tasmania. We are in for an awesome day to see who will represent Tas at the Australasian Final in August. #Politas

Questions remain over how a national first strategy will work in Tasmania. If you’re not concerned about Tasmania being without an Autism Specific funded peak body - you should be. #Politas examiner.com.au/story/886723…
A great turn out at Exeter Showgrounds for the West Tamar Community Carols. #Politas
Some days I question what I have achieved with my advocacy. Then I see👇Can’t wait to see a person with disability in this role. So proud to have played a part in making this a reality.@jeremyrockliff @RockliffTeam #Politas #Proud
