It's bad enough that the Prime Minister has been caught red-handed putting QAnon code words in important speeches, but the revelations that his close mate Tim Stewart has been house-sitting the official residence of the Prime Minister of Australia raises real security issues. Tim Stewart's own family reported him multiple times to the National Security Hotline, due to his dangerous beliefs and threatening behaviour. This man seriously believes that satanic, cannibalistic paedophiles run a global child sex trafficking ring that conspired against Donald Trump. This guy has the Prime Minister's ear. They text and Facebook as mates.

QAnon is a dangerous cult that the FBI has declared a potential terrorist threat. Kirribilli House should not be an Airbnb for conspiracy theorists. How often has the Prime Minister let this dangerous man sleep over? What exactly is the nature of his relationship with Tim Stewart? Why has the Prime Minister refused to condemn the US Capitol riots? Why he'd want to hang out with people like this is beyond me, but his associations with these people are a matter of public interest and concern.

The Prime Minister has nicked off to England to attend the G7. That's fair enough, but a legitimate official trip has now turned into a taxpayer funded pub crawl around the UK with his 20-person entourage. It's time he got off the beers, got on his plane home and came and explained himself to the Australian people in this parliament. (Time expired)
