A Heart-Shaped Teal Tattoo

In November 2024, I met with the Volunteer Coordinator for my local MP, Allegra Spender, who asked if I'd help with the 2025 Federal Election campaign. I'd campaigned for Allegra in 2022 and assisted with her post-election events, so of course, I said yes. But I didn't expect that six months later I'd end up with a heart-shaped teal tattoo!

A Heart-Shaped Teal Tattoo is a blog post by Robert Fairhead from the Tall And True writers' website.
