Thank you so much to everyone who voted 1 for Legalise Cannabis this election, and also to those who gave us a preference. It can take a little longer to get a total senate result, and now we wait.

I am so grateful for your support!

Only a couple hours of early voting left!

It has been such a blast catching up with voters this week, and sharing our plan for cannabis reform!

Vote 1 Legalise Cannabis to keep One Nation out!

Busy week leading up to the election on Saturday, starting with @3rrrfm.bsky.social this morning! Listen in from 9am.

Our billboards have been out and about this weekend! Let me know if you’ve spotted one. 👀

Just saw liberal leader Brad Battin at the pro supervised injecting room rally.
He quickly left when he realised he was at the wrong rally and raced off to join socialist mayor Jolly #endthewarondrugs

It was a joy to spend time in Cooper yesterday, where there was plenty of love for the leaf!

Remember to Vote 1 for Legalise Cannabis in the Senate (the massive white paper)!

A prison officer’s plea for cannabis reform Young lives are being ruined over minor cannabis offences — real reform is needed.

Just read this piece by Craig Hill, a former prison officer and current Legalise Cannabis candidate for the Federal seat of Bonner in Brisbane.

Craig shares his personal experience of witnessing young people being incarcerated for cannabis possession.

Peaceful picnic marks ‘420 Day’ in Melbourne – ahead of an election where minor parties could play a defining role After the Legalise Cannabis party’s strong 2022 election performance, Fiona Patten says she has ‘unfinished business’

Thanks to @guardianaustralia.bsky.social for their write up on yesterday's 4/20 event held at Flagstaff Gardens. 300 people came along to show support for cannabis legalisation while enjoying good music and good company. #legalisecannabis

We support trans rights, because it is a human right.

4/20 in the park at Flagstaff Gardens. It’s always a delight meeting new and not so new supporters. #legalisecannabis

I didn’t know the VIC Police were such supporters of the 420 cannabis reform movement. Here with at least 45 members and giving up their Easter Sunday to fly the flag 🚬

That's one vote!

Hi Niki, you can find our senate 'how to vote' at www.legalisecannabis.org.au/how_to_vote_...

The industrial hemp market is worth $18 BILLION!

Victoria plants around 200 hectares of industrial hemp a year worth almost $500k.

It won't get you high, but you can build houses, make flooring, make pipes to replace PVC, and it's energy efficient!

Victoria, cut the red tape!

Happy Easter, everyone!

Looking forward to watching tonight's debate on @abc-news.bsky.social

Very happy that our @nordacious.bsky.social how to vote card made the news! And may be the first time Ned has featured on a HTV www.theage.com.au/national/les...

Brazil Supreme Court Affirms Adults Can Possess, Grow Marijuana for Personal Use Up to 40 g of cannabis and home-cultivation of up to 6 plants

Brazil joins the ever growing number of countries who have depenalised the adult use, possession and cultivation of cannabis norml.org/news/2025/04...

Not-for-profits should get active before the federal election, urges…

I had the pleasure of participating in the webinar pre-poll edition of the Not-for-profit Agenda at the Institute of Community Directors Australia, sharing insights into the how not-for-profits can better engage with politics.

Check out the pre-interview here: 🔗 bit.ly/3FO7QKD

ASH welcomes progress of historic smoking bill - ASH Action on Smoking and Health (ASH) is a campaigning public health charity that works to eliminate the harm caused by tobacco.

Here is how other countries successfully reduce smoking and maintain a legal and regulated market. No fire bombings or organised crime. Vaping devices are sold in licensed stores but also provided free to adult smokers by anti smoking orgs and funded by govt.

ash.org.uk/media-centre....

Australia’s vaping laws are a disaster! Banning nicotine vapes has fueled the illicit market, while medical cannabis vapes remain unaffordable & out of reach for patients. Harm reduction is ignored in favor of prohibition. It’s time for sensible regulation!

I am not but they certainly stymied the process

Bigots face up to five years’ prison after stalemate over hate laws ends The long-awaited reforms will make serious vilification offences – such as the such as incitement of hatred or physical threats – punishable by up to five years’ jail.

It took over 5 years but finally Vic Anti Vilification Laws that protect people on grounds of disability, gender and sexuality passed. There was shenanigans from the Greens and Libs but the Bill that passed was largely the same as the one I introduced in 2019

Heading to regional Vic today where cannabis use is nearly double that of metropolitan regions. And maybe not surprising support for the Legalise Cannabis Party is also some of the highest in the state. They are our connoisseurs of cannabis.
