Stop the Boats’ Rental

Why on earth are we leasing Navy patrol boats from the National Australia Bank? It’s a strange arrangement – handing over $63 million to one of the “Big Four” to rent vessels like the Cape Inscription. When I asked for the logic behind this, or even the basic cost of the lease extensions, the answers were […]

Australians Deserve the Truth: Ending the Ideology of Terror

On Monday 19 January, during an early recall of Parliament, I delivered condolences for the victims of Bondi on behalf of myself and Senator Pauline Hanson. My condolences to the victims’ families, friends, workmates and colleagues. Nothing I can say will adequately articulate your grief, fear, devastation, shock and desperation — your search for understanding, […]

Bluesky vs. X

During Senate Estimates in December, I asked the eSafety Commissioner why social media platforms like X are being targeted, while Bluesky — a known hangout for the left — seems to be getting a free pass. The Commissioner claimed there’s no “political bias” and that Bluesky has not been exempted – they’re just focusing on […]

Why No Charges After Four Lives Lost?

I asked the Commonwealth Director of Public Prosecutions about a decision that has shocked many Australians — the choice not to lay charges over the 2023 Taipan helicopter crash in the Whitsundays. Four Defence personnel — Captain Danniel Lyon, Corporal Alexander Naggs, Lieutenant Max Nugent and Warrant Officer Class 2 Joseph Laycock — lost their […]

During this Estimates session with the Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water of Australia (DCCEEW), I questioned the government on two issues: secretive appointments that erode trust and climate claims without evidence. I quoted Gabrielle Appleby, a constitutional law professor and director of the Centre for Public Integrity, and asked the Minister […]

Questions CASA Won’t Answer

In this Estimates session, I asked CASA about an incident that raised serious safety questions where a Qantas flight made an emergency landing in Sydney after the captain suffered chest pains. I wanted to know if a full medical review had been done since the event. CASA couldn’t answer on the spot and agreed to […]

Culture is No Excuse for Crime

Why are courts reducing sentences for child sex offenders based on cultural background? This deeply troubling question was one I raised during Estimates. I cited a case where a convicted child sex offender had his sentence reduced because the judge believed his cultural upbringing made him think the crime wasn’t seriously wrong. Australians are rightly […]

Remote Control Over Your Home

 I raised with the ACCC a disturbing new “emergency backstop” that allows energy providers to remotely control our homes and car batteries. The government and energy giants call it “grid stability.” Let’s call it what it is: remote control over your private property. You paid for the battery, you generated the power, yet they want to flip a switch […]

Say Its Name, Albanese: Islamic Terror

This bill is a licence to arrest dissidents, halt debate, and silence political opposition. On December 14, 2025 – an Islamic terror attack occurred in Australia. Two individuals associated with the foreign ISIS group, one of whom ASIO was supposedly ‘watching’, went to an Australian beach and started murdering innocent people. On Australian soil. A […]
