- Taxation (1 speech)
As of this morning, 5,841 Australians have taken the time to send an email to their own MPs through the Tax Reform Now campaign, asking for responsible tax reform. They've written to every single... - Easter (1 speech)
I rise today as Christians in Holt and across Australia prepare to mark Easter, the most sacred time in the Christian calendar. Easter is a time of deep faith, reflection and hope. It reminds us... - Fuel (1 speech)
Thud—well, that is the sound of my jaw hitting the floor of this chamber because, for the first time this year, the Labor government has actually listened. We went from an energy minister... - Caritas Australia: Project Compassion (1 speech)
These are challenging times for many people in our communities around our country, in our regions and around the world, so thank God for great organisations, like Caritas Australia. It is a... - Bradleys Head Naval Memorial (1 speech)
Today, I acknowledge the dedication of Bradleys Head Naval Memorial in Warringah as Australia marks 125 years of Royal Australian Navy service. This is a remarkable honour for our community, with... - Fuel (1 speech)
We're halving the fuel tax for three months, and that's to save people 26c a litre every time they fill up. Conflict overseas is pushing up prices at home, and we know that Australians have been... - Passover, Easter (1 speech)
This is the time of year for hope. Passover tells the story of liberation of a people freed from slavery in Egypt, and, of course, Easter and Passover are inextricably linked. The Last Supper was... - Cricket (1 speech)
The summer of cricket may finally be over, and what a summer it was. The Australian women's cricket team got an incredible tri-format series victory over India, which is never an easy feat. The... - Berowra Electorate: Fuel (1 speech)
In the Berowra electorate families, tradies, truckies and small businesses are being hit from every direction. They've already been battered by Labor's inflation, high interest rates, rising... - Housing (1 speech)
Can I start by acknowledging my beautiful kids in the gallery today and welcoming them to Parliament House. To improve housing and housing security, governments must listen to those on the front... - Easter (1 speech)
This weekend is Easter. Of course, way too much chocolate will be consumed, camping trips will probably be rained out in Queensland and the kids will be excited about the Easter bunny, which is... - Fenton, Mr John (1 speech)
I rise to honour John Fenton, vice-president of the City of Penrith RSL sub-Branch, who recently died with his family by his side. John was a highly dedicated and respected veterans advocate who... - Fuel (1 speech)
Australians are doing the right thing, but this government is not. Australians are watching what happens at the bowser, and they are rightly concerned. But let's be clear: not every Australian is... - The Hairy Scotsman and Hailee Barber (1 speech)
I want to recognise a remarkable local success story in Cessnock: the Hairy Scotsman and Hailee Barber, who recently celebrated one year in business. Starting a small business is never easy. It... - Fuel (1 speech)
Right now, the cost of diesel in my regional Queensland electorate of Hinkler is sitting at levels above $3.20 per litre at many local fuel stations. Prices are visibly hitting Hinkler households... - Strathmore Football Club, Albanese Government (1 speech)
On Saturday, I was with the volunteers at the Strathmore footy club for their season launch. Their new president, Ben, and his team weren't just kicking off the season; they were also seizing the... - Fuel (1 speech)
Well, the good news today is that the government has finally decided to take the fuel crisis seriously, and do what the coalition advised last week, and cut the fuel excise and the road user... - Bendigo Easter Festival (1 speech)
This weekend in Bendigo CBD we close our roads and the street becomes alive. It becomes alive with the Bendigo Easter Festival. It's been running for over 150 years in our town and finishes with... - Fuel (4 speeches)
Australians have been under enormous pressure every time they pull up to the bowser, and, after months of delay, the Prime Minister has finally acted to halve the fuel tax. But—let's be...
