Join our Victorian Lead Senate candidate for a town hall style twitter live as he drives back to Ballarat from a regional campaign event!
Share your experiences and ask questions - we'll look forward to seeing you there!
We missed our regular Friday night spot, but I'm a stationary (moving) target this afternoon on my drive back from Albury later this afternoon!
Today will be a town hall style discussion- I'd love to hear from you!
Set a reminder for my upcoming Space!

We strongly condemn the authoritarian and undemocratic actions of Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Freezing the assets of protesters is inconsistent with anything even resembling a free society, and the use of the Emergencies Act to expand police powers is tyrannical.

We don't oppose the Voice due to clumsy wording or lack of detail, or even just because it won't actually improve outcomes for indigenous people.
We oppose it because it's morally wrong to have a race-based house of parliament.

The WA Government have today announced that if a child tests positive at school "they and their family would have to isolate for 14 days, as would all of their class."

It is important to remember that it was not "the pandemic" or "the virus" that caused lockdowns, closing businesses, divided families, stunted education, job losses and disgraceful segregation. These were caused directly by the disproportionate government response.

In early 2020, the laptop class mocked us by saying "there are no libertarians in a pandemic." By mid 2021 we were enjoying unprecedented growth as more people realised we were right all along. The silver lining of authoritarian governments is the new libertarians they create.

The estimated cost of the Voice referendum is $450 million dollars - the same as an election. This government is choosing to continue with an ego driven vanity project at a time when ordinary Australians are worrying about how they will pay for their rent, groceries and bills.

The primary cause of the rising cost of living is not low wage growth, Vladimir Putin or foreign investment.
It's the inflation caused by the alarmist COVID-19 response. Their lockdowns and "stimulus" are coming home to roost.

An unvaccinated Victorian will soon be able order a beer from a vaccinated Victorian risk-free, but if they swap places that is apparently a serious public health risk.

Forced isolation of people who do not feel unwell is not a "let it rip" strategy. It barely even qualifies as "living with the virus". If you feel unwell you should limit your contact with others, but it's time to end this overzealous testing and isolation regime.
