- Mackay 50 and Better Healthy Ageing Program (1 speech)

The facts cannot be any clearer, yet those opposite insist that nuclear generation is the future of Australia's energy grid despite never mentioning it in their 10 years in government. After 22... - Beenleigh Cane Parade and Gala Ball (1 speech)

I have an important update on the location of the coalition's nuclear power plants. The following Australian towns and regions may be renamed 'Springfield' and play host to a nuclear power plant:... - Middle East: Occupied Palestinian Territories (1 speech)
Yesterday we saw Labor and the Liberals unite together to defend the State of Israel as it carries out a genocide. Labor and the Liberals are on a unity ticket when it comes to supporting... - Nuclear Energy (1 speech)
It's now been 674 days since the opposition leader announced that risky reactors will be the centrepiece of the coalition's energy policy. But where are the details? At this stage it's just a... - Bluey (1 speech)
Every now and then something comes along that speaks not only about us but to us, and Bluey is one of them. We have seen on many occasions the Prime Minster hold up his lucky dollar, and it's... - Liberal Party of Australia (1 speech)
If you've been reading some of the self-propelled commentary about Josh Frydenberg lately, you might be forgiven for thinking that he is the Liberal Party's chosen one. Just like Anakin... - Casey Electorate: Volunteer Fire Brigades (1 speech)
Across Casey, our 37 local CFA brigades work 24/7 to keep our communities safe. They do this without ever asking for anything in return. So, once a year, at the brigades' annual dinners, we have... - Nuclear Energy (1 speech)

The Leader of the Opposition, 674 days ago, announced his plans for a nuclear powered Australia. That's a really long time to have no detail, no sites, no costs and no plan. To put that amount of... - Albanese Government (1 speech)
'Incompetence', 'mismanagement' and 'waste' are words that describe the government and this Prime Minister. The most important job of the Prime Minister is to keep Australians safe and he has... - Energy (2 speeches)
