With so many of us working at home this year, our pets have become a little too comfortable having their humans around 24/7. 🥰 This week Rachel in my office had to bring her corgi Freddy into the office. He was suffering major separation anxiety from her hubby adam who had to do a few days in the office. 🐶I’m curious how are your furbabies coping with your return to the office? 🐱Have you got any tips for Freddy?
It's official! Queensland will reopen to Victoria from 1am on December 1.
Victoria and New South Wales have both reached 28 days of no unlinked community transmission, which means it’s safe to open our borders again.
We know this has been incredibly hard for families and we're thrilled to be able to welcome back more interstate visitors to our state.

All sworn in! Today we had our swearing in at Parliament House, which was super special, especially for our newest members. Afterward the Premier grabbed a quick photo with our female members, I promise there was no group text about the colour choice 😆😂
