The last time Labor was in government, out-of-pocket childcare costs skyrocketed by 53 per cent. In the last nine months alone, they’ve already increased by a whopping eight per cent. The Prime Minister promised Australian families cheaper child care. He promised them lower out-of-pocket costs and promised on multiple occasions they would be better off […]
The inaugural Pacific Airshow Gold Coast was held over three days in the heart of Moncrieff in beautiful Surfers Paradise on 18, 19 and 20 August. There were three days of astounding aircraft entertainment never before seen in Queensland. Tourists and locals enjoyed the show, and as the Americans say, ‘Folks came out in their […]
The lack of action by the state and federal governments for the ticking time bomb that is the infestation of fire ants across the premier tourism destination of the Gold Coast is jaw-dropping.

Lovely to see you. Did you enjoy Albo’s interviews this week?

When we asked about lack of access and the overworked and burnt-out educators, they basically shrugged their shoulders and said: ‘Don’t worry. We’ve got a plan.’ […]
I would join the Leader of the Opposition with regard to his remarks about the heinous alleged crimes perpetrated against 91 precious young Australian girls. It was he, as the Minister for Home Affairs, who set up the agency the Australian Centre to Counter Child Exploitation, in conjunction with the AFP, the Queensland Police Service […]
The Albanese government promised families on at least 100 occasions that they would be better off under Labor, and yet, in just over a month, I’ve been contacted by so many families expressing their frustration at watching their childcare fees increase, their out-of-pocket costs rise and their increased subsidy go up in smoke, Prime Minister!
