Last week in Menzies, I was out doorknocking, and I spoke with a young family. Both parents were working, doing their best to stay ahead of rising costs, and they told me that every dollar they... - Fuel Security (1 speech)
There's no crisis, so the Minister for Energy and Resources told us. So why were fuel stations running out? Because you were panic buying, apparently! But still, he leant against the dispatch box... - Taxation (1 speech)
There is much that I love about this place—the chance to represent my community, to meet interesting people and to be part of a government that is delivering for working Australians. As... - Kooyong Electorate: Roads (1 speech)
The Earl Street-Willsmere Road roundabout in Kew is one of the most dangerous intersections in the electorate of Kooyong. For decades, local residents have raised strong concerns about the risks... - Taxation (1 speech)
Not only did yesterday mark my birthday and Greek Independence Day; it marked, more importantly, 12 months since the Albanese Labor government announced tax cuts for almost 14 million... - Fuel (1 speech)
We are seeing Mad Max levels around the country right now. Farmers' fuel is being stolen; their fuel drums are being drilled and drained. And what is this Labor minister doing? Nothing! When... - Taxation (1 speech)
The Albanese Labor government is committing to easing the cost-of-living pressures for all Australians. The government has demonstrated this in so many ways: in health, by increasing bulk-billing... - Trade with the European Union (1 speech)
There is disappointment currently being felt by farmers across my electorate. The government has completely sold out Australian agriculture with an unfair free trade deal with the EU. Pushed... - Cost of Living (1 speech)

We want Australians to earn more and keep more of what they earn. This is not a slogan; it is a statement of intent. It is an intent that drives the Albanese Labor government, holding its... - Fuel (1 speech)
Right now in regional Australia, something is happening that should stop us in our tracks. Farmers—the people who feed this country—are being forced to guard their fuel like it's... - Cost of Living (1 speech)
The Albanese Labor government is cutting taxes for 14 million Australians this year and next year. Our tax cuts are putting money back in the pockets of 47,000 taxpayers in Braddon, who, on... - Fuel (1 speech)
If gaslighting were an energy resource, this Albanese government could light up the nation, while it plunges into the abyss of their incompetence. The Prime Minister and the Minister for Climate... - Cost of Living (1 speech)
Today is an important anniversary. No, I'm not talking about the day that $100 notes were introduced to Australia for the first time, 52 years ago, or about the day, 20 years ago, when Australia... - Fuel (1 speech)
Diesel has just hit $3.20 in Warrnambool in my electorate and in regional and rural towns right across Australia. We have people ringing in to talkback shows, saying that they're scared to drive... - Income Tax (1 speech)
One year ago, the Liberal Party rejected income tax cuts. Ten months ago, the Australian people elected the biggest Labor majority government ever. Five days ago, South Australians elected... - Fuel (1 speech)

Every day we have been in government, Labor has focused on cost-of-living challenges faced by Australians, and we know there is more to do. It's been 12 months since Labor announced top-up tax...
