These brave women have been fighting for almost a decade to establish a National Student Ombudsman to keep students safe on campus. Today the Albanese Government introduced legislation to do just that.

A million more Queenslanders are being bulked billed because of the Albanese Labor Government.👇

The Libs and the Greens have teamed up to make it easier to send Australian rubbish to the shores of Thailand and Bali.

Never in the national interest - always in their own. smh.com.au/politics/feder…

Breaking: The Coalition just voted against helping low and middle income Queenslanders into their first home.

A win for so many brave students. 👏

In today’s Financial Review the Liberals are still refusing to match Labor’s commitment to fix the Bruce Highway. With 21 out of Qld’s 30 Federal seats, Peter Dutton arrogantly thinks he can take Qlders for granted.

Peter Dutton’s Shadow Infrastructure Minister thinks Labor’s regional commitments like fixing the Bruce Hwy are a “splurge” and not “in the national interest”. Only .Anthony Albanese and .Australian Labor will fix the Bruce.

The LNP had ten years to fix the Bruce, Labor will actually deliver.

It was my pleasure to meet with President Whipps of Palau on the first day of his visit to Australia. As Special Envoy for the Grear Barrier Reef, it’s a privilege to get the opportunity to cooperate with ‘Big Ocean’ states Palau on our shared interests. 🐠

Very wet weather this weekend for the North. Stay safe and if it’s flooded forget it.

Important information for Townsville residents:

In a flood zone? Listen to authorities and prepare to leave when asked. Stay safe Nth Qld.

Nth Qld, right now the most important thing to do is stay out of flood waters and evacuate if necessary. When the time is right, emergency assistance is available. For more information visit qld.gov.au/disasterhelp

I’ll be speaking to ABC Far North at 7:35am Qld time about the Nth Qld Floods. The Federal Government has activated Disaster Recovery Allowance to provide income support for communities directly affected by the floods. Go to Services Australia website to check eligibility.

Disgraceful. The Prime Minister is exactly where he should be today, with the people of North Queensland.

Good win by the CommBank Matildas last night, big win for local grassroots football in Leichhardt ⚽️🥅 still got it?

Peter Dutton hasn’t visited Cairns in 88 days — including not once during the election — because he will have to explain what he will cut to pay for nuclear.
