Every woman deserves somewhere safe to sleep ❤️

Bayside Shelter Inc is working to establish a women’s shelter for our Wynnum–Manly community, and they need our help.

I’ve donated and received a tax receipt to pass on to my accountant—a possible tax deduction while supporting a much-needed local cause.

If you can, please donate. If you can’t, please share. Let’s help turn this shelter into a reality, Bayside ❤️

CASH IS KING for small business! 💵👑

Bloody legend, Hughesy—good on you for speaking up. You’re giving a voice to concerns so many everyday Australians share, and we’re listening. 🇦🇺👏

Backing you from Wynnum Manly Bayside, Brisbane. I’ll be following along and helping share the message.

Dad’s been saying “cash is king” for years—and plenty of other things we probably should’ve listened to! 😂❤️

Let’s turn that support into action: remember to get some cash out and use it at the local café, bakery, shops and markets. Show the small businesses we love some love.

Keep speaking up, Dave. Australia’s listening. 💚💛

FINALLY. FINALLY. FINALLY. Someone is saying it out loud. 👏

“Dumb.” “Deceitful.” “Duplicitous” (meaning dishonest or double-dealing).

David Crisafulli’s words in response to the ATO—and they capture the frustration we’ve been trying to explain.

David Crisafulli MP 👏

Well done, David. Thank you for publicly standing up for small and family businesses.

AND THERE’S GOOD NEWS: the ATO’s planned withdrawal of credit card payments has been delayed. Payments will continue until 30 June 2027 while further consultation takes place.

That’s welcome breathing space. But we need a lasting solution.

When customers pay late, the bills don’t wait. Wages, rent, suppliers and tax still need to be paid. For some businesses, a credit card helps bridge that gap.

With card surcharge restrictions now in place, small businesses are already adjusting to another change in how they manage payment costs. Removing a cash flow option adds more pressure.

Why Wynnum stands with small and family businesses—on the Bayside and across Australia.

We’d welcome the same public support from our federal representatives. Kara Cook, as our Federal Member for Bonner, can take our local concerns to Canberra. Federal Small Business Minister Anne Aly and Treasurer Jim Chalmers have key roles in securing a lasting solution.

Kara Cook MP

Thank you for today’s reprieve. Now please give businesses certainty beyond June 2027.

📣 KEEP SHARING. Share this post, share David’s reel, and send this message to your federal MP.

Our small businesses deserve to be heard—and supported.
