✅ Update: Some funding for Horsham + Stawell food relief centres has been secured after strong community advocacy.
A temporary win — but I’ll keep pushing for a permanent solution so these vital services are never left in limbo again. 💪 #Mallee #FoodRelief

A monster sexually abused their five-year-old daughter 19 times but will serve just six months in jail.
That is not justice — it’s betrayal. I spoke in support of mandatory minimum sentences for distributing child sexual abuse material online. #ProtectOurChildren #Justice

In Kerang, I saw true community spirit 💚

Kerang Neighbourhood House is helping 1,000 locals each month — up from 160 — through food relief, art therapy & care programs.

Their work is a lifeline amid Labor’s cost-of-living crisis. 👏

When you call 000, it’s an emergency. If you can’t connect, lives are at risk. Optus must take responsibility — but in our system, the buck stops with the Minister. Australians deserve answers: what’s been done, what’s next, and where to from here? 🚨 #OptusOutage

Bushfire season is here 🔥 and reliable 000 access saves lives.
After repeated Optus failures, I moved with the Shadow Minister for Communications to have a full inquiry to fix the system and rebuild trust - but Labor voted it down.

Too many in the bush can’t call 📞 Triple Zero – or even family – when it matters most.

Labor talks equity but leaves regional Aussies behind every day. We need change in our comms networks & Triple Zero systems so people can get help when they need it.

Mallee farmers don't want 'mines, lines or turbines' and new mapping will soon show regional Australia will cop 25,000 more wind towers, 45,000km of associated roads, 250 million solar panels, on 406,000Ha farmland & bushland #WindTurbines #RegionalAustralia #regionalaus #auspol

Celebrating #WorldPharmacistsDay! Pharmacists do more than dispense meds—they counsel, collaborate, and enhance care. With new training, they're set to provide even more services in Australia. #WPD2025 #ThinkPharmacyFirst

Farmers in Mallee are united: mines should not take over prime agricultural land. 🌾

The Nationals support mining & farming where there’s a win-win. With @SenatorMcDonald I met farmers worried for their future. If coexistence isn’t real, mining should happen elsewhere.

Farmers are being railroaded with transmission lines 🚜 and wind turbines they don’t want 🌬️. Labor’s message? “Too bad, we’re coming anyway.” Well, we have a different view. 🌾

Labor’s chasing targets it won’t meet ⚡ Power prices up 💸 Emissions flatlined 🌍 Reliability down 🚛 Empty EV chargers in Mildura. Our future deserves better.

Qantas wants to rip pilots & crew out of Mildura. We’re the largest regional airport in Victoria, the most isolated city — and they think we don’t matter? Outrageous. I won’t stand for it. #Mildura #Qantas

Chris Bowen is peddling recycled scare campaigns & outdated research. 🌏
In the 1980s we were told the Maldives & Kiribati would be underwater by now. They’re not — they’ve grown.

Australians deserve affordable, reliable energy — not fearmongering.

It’s RU OK? Day — an opportunity for all of us to pause, connect, and check in with the people around us.
Sometimes just knowing someone genuinely cares can change everything. 💙

🚨 Funding for food relief in Horsham & Stawell has been cut by Tanya Plibersek.

These centres are lifelines. Families & homeless people rely on them for food & hope.

I’m urging the Minister to review this cruel decision & ensure funding continues.

🚨 The PM used more BS today. False claims about nooses & protests. He can’t answer questions. He can’t tell the truth. Mallee deserves better. #auspol

🌏 We all want a healthy planet. But Chris Bowen’s 100% renewables fantasy isn’t reality — Spain tried it & their system collapsed within a week.

⚡ We need a sensible, technology-agnostic energy mix that’s reliable & cost-efficient.

👩‍🌾 The PM might try to reshape the facts, but I was there — 🚜 farmers in Ballarat made their voices heard. These hardworking people would rather be on their farms than protesting. #Mallee #auspol #Farmers #RenewableEnergy

Today I took the Prime Minister to task for his misrepresentations about protests by Mallee farmers.

The Prime Minister claimed that I organised protests in Horsham and Ballarat - my community did that, I simply and proudly stood with them. #auspol

Australians are paying higher power bills for Labor’s reckless Net Zero race. Farmers in Mallee are forced to give up their land for turbines, panels & transmission lines — with threats of $8,000 fines if they resist and $6,000 fines if they remove TCV signs from their own fences.
