Introducing the Minister for Agriculture (& former staffer of Anna Bligh)
26/10/2023
In estimates I asked the Agricultural Minister to take a stand for the Agricultural sector and lobby his former boss to keep bank branches open in the regions. Murray Watt was a former Chief of Staff to Anna Bligh and State MP when she privatised much of Queensland’s Infrastructure.
We need less inflation & more infrastructure

$10 Billion Housing Fund is a risky gamble with your taxes
12/09/2023
Earlier this week I spoke about Australia’s productivity crisis by going back to mistakes made in the 1980’s when the Hawke Keating government destroyed our manufacturing sector due to the Button plan and instead created a paper shuffling and brainwashing industry in Superannuation and the University sector.

Foreign banks tighten grip on Australian agriculture as local banks retreat

Banking industry under fire: Banks sell out the battlers
20/09/2023
Recently the head of the Australian Banking Association Anna Bligh appeared before the RRAT committee in regards to branch closures.
She was unable to answer how much income banks collect in electronic transaction fees. No doubt because it would be embarrassing to admit that shutting down branches actually increases profits for the banks.
