Our new Liberal member is still pushing nuclear (and gas) despite it costing hundreds of billions of dollars in taxpayer dollars, delivering higher energy bills and being completely inappropriate for our region. 🤯 www.afr.com/work-and-car...

Japan makes more money from our offshore gas than we do 🤯🫠 We’re yet to get a cent of Petroleum Resource Rent Tax from offshore LNG exports 😤 Why are the major parties happy to give our gas away for free?! www.canberratimes.com.au/story/8970951/

Lest we Forget. ANZAC Day is very important to my family, my grandfather was awarded the military cross for bravery in WWII in the 2/11 Field regiment. He marched every year on ANZAC day, it was the most important day of the year for him. Today, I honour his memory & all who fought for our freedom.

We had stacks of great conversations at the Warragul Agricultural Show. Going through all the surveys, it’s clear that locals are fed up with the state of the roads, are more than ready for the ‘promised’ hospital and are struggling with the state of the NDIS. #more4monash #auspol

Paid a visit to Monash & @debleonard4monash.bsky.social campaign over the weekend. Absolutely fantastic group. Will post more soon – but the data shows they need just 8,000 votes to win there – and would have knocked close to 1,000 doors in Drouin on Sunday. Things are getting REAL there!

The media’s headlines on donations to independents are misleading—the real story is in the numbers. The graph makes it clear: the major parties still receive the vast majority of political donations. Yet the government is pushing electoral reforms that serve as a payday for political parties

Social media makes politics more accessible but also spreads misinformation—especially during elections. Democracy needs truth. That’s why I introduced my Stop the Lies bill to ban false political ads. Yet in 2025, we still have no safeguards. Next week, I’ll call on the government to act.
