However, these successes have largely failed to translate into Indigenous health outcomes. Given the continued dominance of a colonial imagination, little research exists that values Indigenous perspectives, knowledges and practice in health promotion. This thesis contributes to addressing this knowledge gap. An ethnographic study of health promotion practice was undertaken within an Indigenous-led health promotion team, to learn how practitioners negotiated tensions of daily practice.

  • Julie Bishop and Malcolm Turnbull Took to Twitter to Deny Ben Fordham’S Claims They Had Secret Meeting in Sydney
    Julie Bishop and Malcolm Turnbull took to Twitter to deny Ben Fordham’s claims they had secret meeting in Sydney DAVID MEDDOWS THE DAILY TELEGRAPH FEBRUARY 05, 2015 4:29PM Malcolm Turnbull and Julie Bishop have taken to social media to deny they had planned a secret meeting in Sydney today. Picture: Supplied THE political rumour mill went into overdrive today when a Sydney radio host suggested Julie Bishop and Malcolm Turnbull had arranged a secret meeting in Sydney. 2GB host Fordham took to Twitter this afternoon claiming that Bishop and Turnbull would be meeting at the Communication Minister’s house sometime today. “Interesting fact - @JulieBishopMP and @TurnbullMalcolm have arranged to meet at his Sydney home today,” the Tweet read. But the pair quickly fired back denying the claims. The Communications Minister even provided happy snaps to prove his whereabouts. “you need to improve yr surveillance! I am on the train to Tuggerah. PoliticsinPub Nth Wyong 2nite,” wrote. “No Ben. At 11.30 am I was not meeting w @JulieBishopMP - after a meeting at NBNCo I was waiting for a train at Nth Sydney,” he said. Mr Turnbull was heading to the Central Coast where he was meeting with local MP Karen McNamara. Just to prove his point he posted pictures from the train trip and one hugging a sign at Tuggerah station. “Arrived at our destination! @BenFordham looking forward to discussing broadband with Karen Mcnamara MP,” he said. Still not convinced, Fordham asked one more time for confirmation from Mr Turnbull. “At the risk of coming across as obsessed, can I kindly ask you confirm you did not meet Julie today? *ducks rotten fruit*” he asked on Twitter.

  • Malcolm Turnbull's Plotters Find Political Success Elusive
    Malcolm Turnbull's plotters find political success elusive AFR, Aaron Patrick, 22 Aug 2017 Mal Brough vanished. Wyatt Roy sells call centre technology. Peter Hendy wants a Senate seat. James McGrath is in ministerial limbo land. Arthur Sinodinos stays quiet. Scott Ryan is struck out sick. Simon Birmingham is at war with the Catholic Church. Mitch Fifield tried to buy media peace from One Nation. They have been dubbed the G8: the eight Liberals most intimately involved in the successful plot to remove Tony Abbott as prime minister. When they installed Malcolm Turnbull party leader on September 14, 2015, all might have seen their political careers flourishing under what many people expected at the time to be a unifying, inspiring and competent prime minister. Instead, their stories in some ways personify the broader story of the Liberal government: starting with such promise, they have mostly either proved to be disappointments or failed to live up to their early promise. An opinion poll published Monday shows the Labor Party would easily win power based on current voting preferences. Fateful decision When they gathered on the evening of September 13, 2015, at Hendy's home in Queanbeyan, on the outskirts of Canberra, the atmosphere was thick with anticipation. The group, excluding Birmingham, who was flying up from Adelaide, took the fateful decision to remove a first-term leader who had ended six years of Labor power. The next day, Roy, Hendy, Brough, Ryan, Sinodinos and Fifield walked briskly alongside Turnbull to the meeting in Parliament House where they brought down Abbott, triggering open conflict between the two main wings of the party that persists today.

Dr Heriot: Yes. Senator WONG: What information can you give me on that—the costs and what occurred? Dr Heriot: While Mr Ryan is taking his seat at the front, I can tell you that I am advised that there were seven moves of senators, 23 moves of members and 23 moves in the ministry associated with the appointment of a new Prime Minister and his cabinet. We undertake, as suite changes happen, wherever possible routine maintenance, including patching, painting and other minor repairs as necessary. We also have responsibility for changing glass plaque signages as people change their official positions, and I understand that we have done a number of those that I just mentioned as associated with the move. We have done paint and patch repairs. Because they are done by our staff, I am afraid I do not have a cost for you. I can take that on notice as a hypothetical cost. … Senator WONG: Okay. What about the cost of moving—the actual relocation itself, with boxes and a contractor to carry them? How is that managed? Do I wait for Mr Ryan to come back? Dr Heriot: I understand that we do not bear those costs, but I will get confirmation when Mr Ryan is back.
