I want you to meet the Liberal-National Coalition members who were at uni while it was FREE.

Instead of making corporations pay their tax and making uni and TAFE free for all, they're doubling the cost of humanities degrees. Thread

The Prime Minister went to UNSW from 1986 to 1989. How much did you pay again, @ScottMorrisonMP?

You can phone him on (02) 9523 0339 if you think uni fees shouldn't skyrocket.

Foreign Minister @MarisePayne did an arts degree combined with law while at UNSW too. How can you justify doubling the cost of the humanities degrees you've benefited from?

Senator Payne's office can be reached on (02) 9687 8755

Before becoming Minister for Undermining Workers' Rights, Christian Porter — pictured with Howard, who hated unis as much as the other libs do — did Arts and Economics at UWS. @cporterwa, how much did you pay for uni?

His number is (08) 6296 7255 if you want to ask the same.

Health Minister @GregHuntMP, will you vote for the 28% increase in fees for law degrees like yours?

Let Greg know uni and TAFE should be free for all on (03) 5977 9082

@AngusTaylorMP, your USyd economics degree was free right? Now you're going to double prices for students and saddle them with decades of debt.

Great Job. Well done, Angus.

Even @Barnaby_Joyce went to University of New England while degrees were free. Barnaby, will you sell out regional kids who want to study humanities with these enormous fees?

Catch him on (02) 6761 3080 or (02) 6736 1099

@PaulFletcherMP, another arts grad while it was free and current Minister for Communications, why are you raising fees for current communications students when we should be making uni free for all?

Ask Paul directly on (02) 9465 3950

(Not even halfway done folks. Though I'm starting to notice something about the kind of people who benefit from universal services and then cut them...)

@SenatorAbetz, I get we probably can't shift how much you loathe unis, but why slug Tassie students with massive fee hikes to study arts and law like you did while it was free?

Give the Senator a buzz on (03) 6224 3707

Senator @DeanSmithWA, you did arts at UWA while it was free too. Now you're increasing fees 113%. What's the go?

Reach Dean on (08) 9481 0349

@SenatorCash, now a Minister, got her Bachelor of Arts from Curtin University while it was free.

Ask her to oppose these cruel fee hikes on (08) 9226 2000

@Senator_CFW want YOU to... [checks notes] pay an egregious amount for your university degree.

I recommend calling her on (02) 4226 1700 to check how much her ANU Bachelor of Arts cost in 1980. (It wasn't the $43,500 the Government's about to charge.)

Senator David Fawcett got that sweet sweet free uni too, but will now hike fees on you.

He's pictured here in front of some of the military gear the Government funds instead of education.

Tell him that's bad on (08) 8205 1040

@Anne_Ruston got a Bachelor of Business while they were free. Today business degree fees are being raised by 28%.

As Minister for Families and Social Services, she should know the transformative power of access to education.

Remind her by calling (08) 8586 6600

@DaveGillespieMP, how can you possible justify massively raising uni fees for country kids when your Bachelors was $0?

Dave's on (02) 6586 4462

@karenandrewsmp got a @QUT degree for free, but has watched on while the uni cut jobs because her government wouldn't help and will now let them raise student fees.

Seems off? Tell her on (07) 5580 9111

Last of the current batch of bros is @AndrewLamingMP who nabbed a free degree from UQ.

Tell Andrew that uni and TAFE should be free for all on (07) 3821 0155

That's 16 current Coalition members who benefited from free higher education, but now want to massively hike fees for future students!! (Did I miss anyone?)

That doesn't include the many Labor members who got the same and should be vocal in calling for #FreeUniAndTAFE

BONUS ROUND: He's out of parliament, but never far from mind when it comes to students getting screwed over.

Tony got free education, then tried to deregulate fees. We beat the Liberals then & we can do it again.

Look at that face, get motivated and call some of the MPs above!

If the Government closed the loopholes that let 1 in 3 major corporations pay no tax and stopped giving tax breaks to the superwealthy, we could forget this all and make uni and TAFE free for everyone.
