Here’s a plan to fully fund the NDIS, cancel AUKUS! That will free up $100 billion over the next decade to give people with disability the support they need.

BREAKING Its not just the US and UAE, Australia also providing 'defensive' military support to Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and Qatar. The Albanese Labor Government cannot pretend we are not involved Trump and Netanyahu's war of choice when we up to our neck in it.
The Albanese Labor government is currently talking with the US about what data Trump gets access to on Australians traveling there. We need clarity that Australians' biometric data will be safe from Palantir, the US far-right tech giant powering ICE's deportation machine.
This whole LOTE project for the Collins Class was based on the idea we would get French submarines, something that disappeared in 2021 when Morrison chose AUKUS. That means Defence bought a whole bunch of stuff, based on a now scrapped idea. Here are the figures.
At Estimates Defence confirmed it on the record that the Palantir software Defence is paying $14.4 million for is the same suite of products used in Gaza, Lebanon, and the US attack on Iran. I then asked if anyone ran an ethics check. See what happens next.
I asked the outgoing NACC Commissioner whether he accepts responsibility for keeping his own CEO in the dark about his ongoing defence work. His answer was that his CEO had no business knowing what he was doing on the side 🤯🤯🤯 They just don't think the rules apply to them!
Workers in onshore detention tried to save a person from a burning room and got injured doing so. MTC, the Trump-linked US company running the centres, did not provide enough staff or training. When I criticised them, the Government jumped in to defend this company.
Just a year ago I was so fortunate to catch James Valentine playing his signature sax at Sean’s and Dolly’s in Sydney. He made it seem so effortless and his quirky charm was on full display. Missing him already.
The Australian War Memorial is sponsored by the companies that build the weapons that kill people, and at Estimates today we made them say so out loud.
Asking the question 300,000 Illawarra residents (and those of us who visit regularly) want an answer to: when will you be able to make a phone call on the train or the highway between Wollongong and Sydney without dropping out?
Just opened the offshore detention inquiry with Human Rights Law Centre, making the important point: " It has simply pushed the death offshore behind a veil of corruption and secrecy."
Sending Brandee Evans tight hugs. I can't imagine caregiving responsibilities while navigating this lame industry and making sure you're not neglecting yourself as well. My parents might need care sooner than later and it's always on my mind what that will look like with me being overseas.
The first half of May has become one of the deadliest periods for Ukrainian civilians since the beginning of Russia’s full-scale military invasion, reaching a new level of barbarism. The Russian armed forces have continued to deliberately and systematically attack the civilian population in Ukraine.

People are looking for leadership they can trust. So when someone tells me they’re placing their vote — and their faith — in me, I don’t take that lightly. As Governor, I’ll work every day to show Californians their trust was well placed.

As the cost of everything continues to skyrocket, Donald Trump finally admitted last week that he doesn’t care about the American people’s financial situations. Nevadans deserve better. They deserve leaders who will work for them and their families.
