We know budget repair is needed to reduce the high interest costs Australia is paying on national debt, but Australians are already doing it tough & cutting income support would only hurt those most vulnerable. A 25% gas export tax is a modest proposal for the use of our national resources.

Inflation pressures remain persistent. In 2024–25, the Govt handed out $12.5 billion in fossil fuel subsidies. It’s time to rethink priorities. We need smarter, climate-aligned budgeting that delivers real cost-of-living relief and invests in Australia’s future.
The budget outcome shows that disaster relief cost $5.5b more than expected, while the PRRT delivered $30m less. Natural disasters are costing us more & fossil fuels are contributing less than promised. If the govt is serious about fiscal responsibility, it must stop approving fossil fuel projects.
Today I reintroduced the govt’s own bill to ensure truth in political advertising. With AI deepfakes, deceptive campaigns & growing voter distrust, we must act. 89% of Australians support this reform—there’s no excuse not to pass it before the next election. www.zalisteggall.com.au/news #auspol
The violent scenes that played out in central Sydney last night were deeply troubling, and entirely foreseeable. We are Australians, first and foremost. Inviting a foreign head of state to Australia when the consequences for social cohesion are so obvious shows a serious failure of judgment.
While the Coalition fights among themselves, the govt is pushing bad policy. A tax on unrealised capital gains on super and an extension to the North West Shelf in WA needs serious scrutiny. We need serious tax reform and urgent climate action, not bad proposals. #ClimateAction #auspol
Australia is making progress—but we must accelerate our transition to clean energy. We need urgent action: ✅ Stronger targets for transport, agriculture and aviation ✅ A Sustainable Aviation Fuel mandate ✅ Accurate monitoring of methane
The Re-energised Economy plan, developed with economist Dr Emma Aisbett, sets out a clear path to modernise our economy—cutting emissions, supporting small business, boosting productivity and tackling intergenerational inequality. zalisteggall.com.au/re-energised_economy #ReEnergisedEconomy
I’m calling on the govt to review the AUKUS agreement and ensure contingencies are in place. Our national security, defence strategies & budgets must be determined by Australia for Australia. Aus deserves defence policies based on strategic foresight, capability and transparency. #AUKUS #auspol
This morning I moved an amendment to better define disorderly conduct in Parliament—including harassment, bullying and intimidation. Clear standards matter. While not passed, the Govt has committed to further consideration. Parliament must be a respectful and professional workplace. #auspol
In QT, I asked the Treasurer why climate resilience & adaptation weren’t even on the agenda at his economic roundtable. His response was brief, underwhelming & telling. Climate risk is economic risk. The longer we wait, the higher the cost. Watch the exchange here: www.zalisteggall.com.au/news

Last year, the Admin illegally terminated thousands of grants at the NEA and NEH—agencies that help generate more than $1 TRILLION in economic activity. These cuts don’t just silence voices and stymie creators. They erase the spaces where healing, connection, and community happen. It’s just WRONG!

[President Trump] went and said help is on the way to the Iranian protesters.
