Implementing these policies will put people first
30/08/2024
Earlier this week I spoke to ADH TV about the policies I would like to see implemented by government.

Do you believe that the tax-free threshold should be raised from $18,200 to $40,000?
We cannot get the best out of our Gov if our bureaucrats are afraid to speak out
20/08/2024
I have been personally contacted by a number of people who have been too afraid to speak out against corruption in the government for fear of reprisal.
ASIC needs a new chief
15/08/2024
Eisenhower warned about the military industrial complex and the cross of iron (a reference to William Bryan Jennings Cross of Gold speech implying all wars are banker wars). His foresight was very prophetic and wise.
Taxpayers fund universities at over $10 billion per year
14/08/2024
Speaking of frivolous degrees, last week a Senate inquiry into Tertiary Education was held Canberra. The Federal government is finally getting around to pulling Universities into line.
It’s no longer the party of the worker, Labor is the party of the rorter
14/08/2024
The Labor Party has stopped fighting for the people.
I recently called out Labor’s failure to stand up for workers in the chamber.
We need to spend less on frivolous university degrees and more on skills and trades
13/08/2024
How much money is being wasted on unnecessary University degrees?
The major parties don’t understand monetary policy and now we have a productivity crisis!
12/08/2024
The debate around monetary policy in this country is hopeless.
The two major parties are arguing over how many boards should the RBA have, when they should be asking why unelected officials are changing the price of paper, instead of directing credit into infrastructure projects that might actually do something about the lack of supply in Australia.

Why are Labor/The Greens sticking a tax on Australian companies, sending jobs offshore?
28/03/2023
Last week the Labor party passed the Safeguard mechanism. This is without a doubt the most destructive bill ever passed during my time in the Senate.
Health advice never mandated jabs in the workplace
10/03/2023
What’s astonishing about this is that the former Prime Minister Scott Morrison himself said this week that Covid vaccine mandates were never recommended by the Federal Health Department outside of Health settings.
Taxing unrealised gains on superannuation is totally unworkable
08/03/2023
If we look at the mean balance of superannuation for women aged 60 to 64, it is $280,000, whereas for men it is $360,000.
Cost of living at crisis point – we need the ‘Sovereign Seven’
08/03/2023
Inflation is caused by either too much demand or not enough supply. Most of the inflation today is caused by a lack of productivity in the country resulting in supply shortages.
Senate Inquiry announced into Regional Bank Closures
09/02/2023
Senators Gerard Rennick and Slade Brockman have successfully fought for a Senate Inquiry into regional bank closures.
How the Deep State controls the money supply
07/02/2023
Central Bank Independence (which is double speak for no accountability or transparency) has no place in a democracy.
Labor is butchering the Fair Work Act
23/12/2022
I don’t really see this bill as being the final nail in the coffin for small industry and small business here in Australia—no, no, no. The Labor Party put the final nail in the coffin of small business a long time ago.
The Greens laugh at jab injuries & then shut down debate on lifting vax mandates
02/12/2022
Yesterday in the Senate, Malcolm Roberts moved an amendment to the IR Bill that would have prevented people being discriminated against on the basis of their Covid-19 vaccine status. I spoke to the amendment and as you can tell I

Fair work discriminated against one of their own
02/05/2023
It’s time for the Fair Work Commission to admit they were wrong.
Australia is in a rental crisis yet the Labor Government is importing more people
23/02/2023
In 2021-22, migration was 171,000, of which 109,000 were students. There is a record 217,000 student visa applications for this year. Given that students predominantly add to demand and not supply, why is Treasury pursuing a big Australia policy at the same time that the RBA is trying to cap demand?
Living costs are rising & the RBA is pouring fuel onto the fire
17/02/2023
I asked the RBA governor in estimates why he is increasing interest rates so fast given the cost of living is also increasing rapidly.
Why don’t insurance companies like chickens?
20/12/2022
Their house burnt down as a result of electrical fault, but because they had chickens on another part of their property that they made about $60 or $70 a week with, through an honesty box system, they were denied insurance.
If public servants aren’t accountable to the Parliament, then who are they accountable to?

The RBA is happy to fund private banks but won’t fund infrastructure
09/12/2022
The RBA governor is clueless. He has no understanding of monetary policy. He cannot distinguish between lending to the private sector and the public sector. He also cannot distinguish between secured and unsecured debt. He contradicts himself so many times
‘Sorry’ from the RBA won’t help people now under mortgage stress
08/12/2022
This week, the RBA raised rates for the 8th straight month. To change the price of money so rapidly is sheer madness. It’s even worse when the RBA said inflation wouldn’t rise until 2024 and then say that rates wouldn’t
If the RBA can spend $300B to destroy the economy, why can’t it spend $300B to build the country?
25/11/2022
In estimates I quizzed the RBA as to why they are using austerity measures rather than productivity measures to manage the economy. Austerity measures via sharp interest rate increases are only hurting the battlers who don’t deserve to suffer because
