The ink isn’t even dry on Minister Gallagher’s Digital ID Bill, yet abuses are already surfacing. Digital ID is supposed to be voluntary, with an alternative method of identification available, however this is not happening. Federal and State Government departments, alongside crony corporations, are mandating Digital IDs and failing to offer paper alternatives. This blatant […]
The Banking Code of Practice was originally designed to safeguard consumers from bad banking practices, however since the first code was issued, there has been a continual watering down of these protections, effectively rendering the code meaningless. Currently, ASIC is conducting a review of the code. During the recent Senate Estimates, I inquired whether certain […]
This Government is spending money recklessly, treating it as if it were mere monopoly money.

Australian Citizen Julian Assange was persecuted and imprisoned for 14 years because he told the truth.

During the June Estimates, I asked the Professional Services Review Scheme (PSRS) why there was a 100% strike rate against doctors. I was informed that only a small number of cases make it to the Committee stage after several preliminary steps. The representative assured me that the system is fair, although she admitted that appeals […]
Inflation, unemployment, mortgages, rents, and the cost of living—including energy and grocery prices—are all on the rise. One Nation policies promise growth and prosperity for everyone, ensuring a secure future. Transcript The response from Treasurer Jim Chalmers to yesterday’s increase in the inflation rate was, ‘There’s more work to be done.’ Oh, really? I would […]
It’s been a big week for cross-party collaboration on issues we’ve been strong on from the very start. Digital ID Repeal Bill 2024 I co-signed the Digital ID Repeal Bill alongside Senators Antic, Babet, Canavan, Hanson and Rennick, which was introduced into the Senate Wednesday, 26 June 2024. This Bill aims to repeal the government’s […]
I have asked, over multiple estimate sessions, about the approval process for lab-grown meat. While I acknowledge and understand Food Standard Australia New Zealand’s (FSANZ) need to take their time with this decision, the process seems more about ticking the boxes rather than conducting a serious investigation into the potential health impacts of this Frankenstein […]
