I joined a packed room of dedicated Gold Coasters to raise funds for the iconic Surfers Paradise Surf Lifesaving Club—in its 100th year of saving lives on Surfers Paradise Beach. Hosted by the Gold Coast stellar citizen Andrew Bell OAM and his brother, Greg, was the annual Ray White Surfers Paradise Business Meets Sport luncheon, […]
Young people are being forgotten under Labor at both federal and state levels. Those bright young people that are doing everything right at school, at home and in their local communities have no one to fight for them and no one to stand up for them.
Youth crime is out of control in many parts of our country and more needs to be done to combat it. This week, the Federal Coalition introduced the Crimes and Online Safety Legislation Amendment (Combatting Online Notoriety) Bill 2024 into Parliament that seeks to crack down on youth crime by making it illegal to post social media material that glamorises violence and criminal activity.
How the Grinch Stole Christmas! is Dr Seuss’s story of an ill-tempered grump who goes on a mission. The grumpy, old, green Grinch plots to ruin Christmas for the Whos in the village of Whoville. Australians know that story. Aided by his pet dog, Max, he meticulously designs a bright red suit to disguise himself […]

Industry analysis of Labor’s family car tax predicts the cost of some popular models such as the Toyota Landcruiser could rise by as much as $25,000. Federal Member for Moncrieff, Angie Bell said Labor’s newest tax will put too many cars out of reach for families and tradies on the Gold Coast.

The Federal Government’s overhaul of the stage three tax cuts have passed the Senate. The changes aimed to broaden the benefits of the original tax cuts halving the tax break offered to wealthier Australians but bolstering the benefit for those on lower incomes. Federal Member for Moncrieff, Angie Bell joins you on the phone this morning. Hello, Angie.
GREG JENNETT:
We might get an assessment of what sort of behavioural change that data could generate. We’ll do that with our political panel joining us right here, right now, Labor frontbencher Kristy McBain. Welcome back Kristy. And LNP frontbencher, Angie Bell, same to you Angie.
Imagine looking into the eyes of the Australian people who elected you as their nation’s leader and repeatedly being untruthful—deliberately telling untruths? That is exactly what Anthony Albanese and this Labor government continue to do to Australians. They have built a government based on lies and broken promises, with a weak leadership team at the […]
