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.
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?
The inquiry into offshore detention heard about horrific instances of sexual assault occurring before basic health care was provided. I put this to the current 'healthcare' provider on Nauru.
Asking the Royal Commission into Social Cohesion and Antisemitism if Muslim communities can't give evidence and false claims of antisemitism which conflate a bake sale or wearing a keffiyeh with antisemitism go unchallenged, what exactly is this royal commission for?
What happens when every Fed department is responsible for AI data centres but none of them actually is? At Estimates we found out: foreign multinationals make commercial decisions, states rip up their planning laws, and the water and energy consequences are someone else's problem
Hateful media and political rhetoric drives trans people out of public life and undermines rights as fundamental as work, education, and living as your authentic self. We will always call it out. 🏳️⚧️
Defence knew in October 2025 that the LOTE project on the Collins Class submarines was in crisis. When I ask back then if the $11 billion project was on track, they said there was "no change to the program of record". The LOTE program has now been massively de-scoped with a scathing audit.
Australian National Audit Office has done amazing work holding Defence to account for multi-billion dollar failures. In response the Albanese Government is cutting there work. So much for accountability and transparency.
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.
A few months ago the Labor Government (backed in by Liberals and One Nation) got the power to stop Iranians, who already have a visa to Australian, from coming because they might seek safety here. We learnt 6,634 people have been impacted.
