Claudia and I are so thrilled to be here in Sydney at #WorldPride2023 celebrating the hard-won freedom and joy of the LGBTQIA+ community ✊🏼
I’m proud to be marching alongside some Greens legends tonight – including Senator Mehreen Faruqi, Stephen Bates – Greens for Brisbane, Senator Dorinda Cox, Jenny Leong and Kobi Shetty – Greens candidate for Balmain
Special mention to Ray (pictured in the selfie with the fabulous hat) Ray was right here marching on Oxford St in 1978 at Sydney’s first Mardi Gras, when the police crushed the protest with violence and arrests. Tonight’s celebration is a testament to the strength and resistance of people like Ray.
Wishing everyone celebrating here and elsewhere a magnificent #WorldPride2023!
