Yup… time to be human..

We continue to call for
📢An immediate humanitarian ceasefire.
📢The immediate release of hostages.
📢Unrestricted and sustained humanitarian access.

To my Melbourne friends!
Coming this Thursday! We will have Donald Betts Jr, of Betts Law Company and previous Senator to Lansas and Brad Roswell, our local Member to introduce and say a few words about the Australian and American mateship! Then we “punch it out” with some American history trivia!! Come join us! Call to reserve your spot! Looking forward to an enjoyable evening of fun!

Wahoooooooo! Next up… Beat Stanford!

Let’s go to dinner local!!!
Thanks Brad! 🙂.

Did you know that you can still get 25% back on your dining bill if you visit a local restaurant between Monday to Thursday?

All you have to do is spend more than $40 in a single purchase and upload an itemised receipt through the link: https://bit.ly/VicDiningEntertainment

This is a chance to try some of the great local restaurants that our area has to offer all at a significant discount. That could be the difference between ordering the steak instead of the parma at the pub!

LUV this! Way to go Mates!

What a great idea!

We're BACK, and we're excited to be heading out into the community to bring love & joy through animal therapy!!!!!❤️🐾

Do you know someone who could use a smiles & a little puppy love?? Send them a PUP-A-GRAM!!!!

This is simply reprehensible! For years we have taken guests to visit these guys in St Kilda. They do nothing but live theirs lives and are adorable to watch. I hope they find these scumbags. But then what? A fine? no jail time? Make the consequence real for this type of behavior.

You've probably seen the reports by now.

Over the weekend, a little penguin was captured, thrown against a wall and kicked to death in St Kilda.

This is a disgraceful and heartbreaking crime.

Like all of you, I want justice for this penguin, and all of the other animals who suffer abuse like this.

The Conservation Regulator and Crime Stoppers are looking to identify 5 men. There is more information here: https://www.theage.com.au/politics/victoria/five-men-sought-after-st-kilda-little-penguin-thrown-kicked-before-death-20211105-p596hw.html

If you have seen something, please say something.

And share this image to spread the word.

It's now easier to send milosdownunder a message.

Heading in the right direction ya’ll! Go get the jab if you can! 🙂

: Victoria records 45 new local COVID cases.

MORE: https://ab.co/3msgbYH

Just 17 of the new cases were in quarantine while infectious, and 36 of the cases have been linked to existing outbreaks.

The results were detected from among 53,321 test results processed on Tuesday, when 31,629 vaccine doses were delivered at state-run sites.

From this morning, 450,000 first-dose Pfizer appointments have been made available through state-run vaccination hubs, as eligibility for Pfizer expands to those aged 18-39.

People in that age bracket can also receive AstraZeneca, while those aged 16 and 17 are only eligible for Pfizer.

BREAKING: Companion animals to be recognised as victims of family violence in Victoria!

My family violence and animals motion has PASSED parliament unanimously just now.

The government has made a commitment to ensure more robust protections for animals in situations of family violence.

We will also work on a system to ensure pets are removed from perpetrators, defaulting to the victim survivors of family violence, should they wish to leave with them.

This is a huge step towards removing one of the biggest barriers to women leaving a violent home.

I want to make a particular thanks to my female staff, some of whom are pictured here with me. We know that family violence disproportionately impacts women - and this powerhouse team of women has worked so hard on this win today.
