Credit where credit is due. With the NT government repeatedly failing on its duty of care to refer massive new fossil fuel projects for environmental assessments, it’s reassuring to see the Federal government reaching out to Tamboran about its plan to frack the Beetaloo basin.

Quite wonderful to already have 665 bookings for Sunday's Town Hall with Senator Jacqui Lambie. This is our seventh Town Hall meeting since mid-2022. As an Independent, instead of having a party telling me how to vote, I go directly to the community to be sure I'm acting in

Peter Dutton keeps standing up and taking repeated cracks at me and my community. He should focus on improving the lives of the 26 million other Australians out there instead. And if he wants to have a conversation comparing his work over the past two years to mine, let’s have

The public, health experts, a bipartisan Parliamentary enquiry - all agree, it’s time for a complete ban on gambling advertising. The media, gambling companies and sporting codes are pushing the govt to compromise with weak, ineffectual measures. It’s for the Albanese

Just about to go on stage with Senator Jacqui Lambie at a booked out Hawthorn Arts Centre for my seventh Town Hall.

Ban gambling ads today. Listen to Australians, not gambling companies and broadcasters. Act in the national interest, not for vested interests.

With his comments about immigration this week, Peter Dutton has wilfully inflamed fears and fomented disunity in Australia for political gain. He wants to lead our country but he keeps dividing us. Someone's always 'the other' for him. This race to the bottom on immigration

1 in 8 Australians live in poverty. Helping them helps all of us. It means that more Australians can afford to pay their rent and their bills, to get to interviews and get a job, and to feed their kids and themselves. Eradicating poverty would transform their lives and our

Just then, in the House of Representatives, the government introduced the legislation that will wipe $3 billion in student debt for 3 million Australians. The Education Minister said that young people - including the 288,000 who signed my record-breaking HECS petition - "made

The Albanese govt is more worried about the bottom line of media and gambling companies than about our kids’ mental health. We need to ban gambling advertising now. theage.com.au/politics/feder…

The government’s recent Multicultural Framework Review describes the strong leadership and concerted community action needed for us to retain and build on social cohesion in Australia. Like democracy, such things can never be taken for granted. homeaffairs.gov.au/about-us/our-p…

You can’t be half-pregnant. All the evidence shows that a partial ban on gambling advertising won’t work. If the political parties won’t show the leadership we need, they should allow their members a free vote on a complete ban on gambling advertising. themandarin.com.au/252930-a-free-…

Peter Dutton and Sussan Ley are good at calling people names... not so good at coming up with policies for how to address the cost-of-living crisis and housing affordability and availability. Australia deserves better than their unrelenting negativity.

The government has moved on the census issue - it’s indicated it will include a question on sexuality, but not one on gender. It’s not enough. We’ve already seen the community response influence the government’s actions. We’ll keep pushing. theguardian.com/australia-news…

A government weakening vital environmental protections in order to secure support from a Coalition which habitually denies the reality of climate change … is a government which has lost its way.

Hamas is a terrorist organisation. We can’t have people in the Australian Parliament who support terrorist organisations. theage.com.au/politics/feder…
