Watch as Labor minister Murray Watt twists himself in knots as he can’t admit renewables are bad for the environment.

Do you think our infrastructure should be owned by superannuation funds that aren’t accountable to the people or the government?
We need a serious review into the way this country is run
19/02/2024
Economic reform is way overdue in this country. In 1985 when Paul Keating opened up Australia to foreign capital markets he sold our children out.
Endangered species must be protected from renewable energy construction
16/02/2024
Gotta love it don’t you. They can report national CO2 emissions on a quarterly basis but try asking for a national report on the numbers of endangered species and this is what you get.
Bank branches have dropped 30% in 5 years
15/02/2024
As the Australian Prudential Regulator responsible for deposit taking institutions you would think keeping branches open would be a major concern for them.
The last 18 months of Labor were truly scary
13/02/2024
Cost of Living and Crime is on the rise under Labor. And they aren’t doing anything about it.
Dead fish does not mean rivers are dying
12/02/2024
Last year Labor and the Greens voted to take out another 450 gigalitres out of the Murray Darling by letting it run out to sea.
The Climate Change Authority doesn’t seem to know much or do much
09/02/2024
Climate change madness isn’t just killing the environment and your wallet.
The big banks are lying when they say it’s not cost effective to keep branches open
05/02/2024
The banks are now just lying to justify their gouging . Its disgraceful.
They earn very high margins on low interest deposit accounts that would have 10’s of billions of dollars in them, making millions on relending at 6%.

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
RRAT report on Inland Rail
16/08/2021
I rise to speak to the report of the Rural and Regional Affairs References Committee on the Inland Rail. It’s about a part of Queensland that, like Senator Chisholm, I’m very passionate about, not least because I grew up there…
Take Note: Net Zero & Jobs
01/07/2021
I will tell you what our policy is, by the way, when it comes to energy: it is cheap and reliable energy that is going to create jobs in the manufacturing sector—not in the imports, not in the cost sector, creating energy; no. We had the world’s cheapest energy from the world’s best coal when Labor came to power in 1990…

Senator RENNICK (Queensland) (17 March 2021, 17:17): Well, well, well! The fox is in the henhouse. Here we go. We’ve got Labor suddenly worried about small business. Get real! This is the fox that wants to destroy small business. This
Tourism & COVID-19
15/03/2021
Senator RENNICK (Queensland) (15 March 2021, 17:44): It’s quite astounding, the audacity of the Labor Party, when it comes to criticising the federal government on support for the tourism industry and support for the Australian economy as a whole. This
Australian Sovereignty
03/02/2021
The last 12 months has illustrated the importance of self-reliance. When a country cannot rely on itself then its sovereignty is jeopardised. In his political masterpiece The Prince Niccolo Machiavelli wrote: Wise princes … have always shunned axillaries and made
Parliamentary Speech: Regional Queensland
16/09/2019
Just prior to my maiden speech, during the winter break I undertook a two-week regional and rural listening tour of my home state, because on this side of the chamber we take the concerns of the people living in regional Queensland seriously. I had the opportunity to meet with community groups and not-for-profits such as the Royal Flying Doctor Service, mayors and councillors from our state regional councils and of course lots of farmers and small business people.

We need data on how many people out of work from mandates
11/11/2022
I asked the ABS in estimates whether or not they were tracking the number of people out of work in the unemployment statistics due to mandates. Needless to say they don’t. Now don’t you think with the severe labour shortages
Who audits the auditors?
02/11/2022
Last week in estimates I questioned the actions of the Auditor-General and ANAO as to whether the Audit of the Leppington Triangle purchase was politically motivated, breaching the Public Service Act 1999 which requires public servants to act apolitically and

Senator Rennick questions CSIRO in Additional Senate Estimates
26/03/2021
Senator RENNICK: Hi, guys. How’re going? Given that heat is kinetic energy—the energy of motion—is it fair to say that CO2 traps heat, or is it fair to say that climate change theory invalidates the Stefan-Boltzmann law, which says radiation
