On the Gold Coast, we look after our own, and my community’s generosity seems to be limitless. We have around 12 fundraising balls a year through the winter on the Gold Coast. I’ve actually lost count of how many, and I’m just estimating based on how many I attend. But we have some stellar citizens […]
GREG JENNETT:
Social media bans on teenagers is hard to walk passed as a dominant discussion point of the day. So let’s get into that now, joining us right here in the studio on our political panel we have government frontbencher and Member for Edern Monaro, Kristy McBain. Welcome back Kristy. And Liberal frontbencher and Member for Moncrieff, Angie Bell, welcome to you too Angie.
The Coalition supports women’s economic security. The coalition has always supported women’s economic security. In government, we delivered more than $5.5 billion in funding for women through our women’s budget statements. Our policies boosted workforce participation to record levels, reduced the gender pay gap and empowered more women to run their own businesses. That’s really […]

I reject the comments from the member for Hawke and also his imputations about the coalition. I want to look at the sad story of this government’s record when it comes to failing to keep Australians safe and failing dismally to manage the economy, the two things that right now actually matter most to Australians, […]
The member for Cooper stood at the dispatch box and delivered a speech where she declared that the government is the party of working people. We on this side say that the government is the party of working poor people. Under this government, Australians feel poorer simply because they are. Prices are up by 10 […]
I think some of those comments from the member for Fenner are, quite frankly, laughable. Let’s look at who it was that said, ‘It’s time for the corruption and criminality to come to an end.’ The admission is from the Minister for Employment and Workplace Relations, when he leaned into his apparent watershed moment and […]
What a historic haul for our Aussies in Paris with 18 gold medals, 19 silver and 16 bronze. Our congratulations go to the athletes who delivered our greatest Olympic Games in history.

Labor has wasted four months by failing to act on key Senate inquiry recommendations into Red imported fire ants in Australia – ‘don’t let this come back to bite us’. By not acting, the Albanese Government has allowed the eradication zone to explode in size, further north into Burpengary East, west into Mount Sylvia, south into Tallebudgera Valley, as well as outlier areas, as far as Oakey near Toowoomba and Currimundi near Caloundra Airport.
It was an honour to attend a Vietnam Veterans’ Day memorial service at Nerang in my electorate. I extend my respects to all those who attended the Nerang RSL service and acknowledge the service and sacrifices made by veterans of the 10-year Vietnam conflict. On Long Tan Day, we honour those who served in the […]
