In my role as Chair of Parliamentary friends of Bangladesh, I have come to learn how tight knit the community is in Australia. The tragic event in Darwin involving an international student will be felt right across the Bangladeshi community. My thoughts are with family & friends

Julian Leeser has stood by his convictions and will be standing on the right side of history later this year for the Voice Referendum.

We welcome the Australian Government's action to fight hunger in the Horn of Africa, Pakistan & Yemen. It comes after 7 MPs travelled to Kenya with @savechildrenaus to witness the hunger crisis first-hand. Make no mistake, this funding will save lives.

If you are over 40, you are now eligible to book in for your COVID-19 vaccine. I have just booked myself in, it was easy & quick. The most effective way to protect against COVID-19 is getting vaccinated. Book your appointment here: https://t.co/M36uZGrlet

Transport workers are essential workers who keep Australia moving and deliver essential freight, so why are they being held up at borders and hospitals and not being tested as priority? @Corey_Wingard This is not good enough. Our essential workers deserve better.

It was great to join Federal Labor leader @AlboMP and State Labor leader @PMalinauskasMP this morning. They’ve signed on to show their support for the @SDAunion’s No One Deserves A Serve campaign.

Strongly urge people to watch this from @AlboMP. Real leaders listen.
This moment requires leadership. We’re not getting it from this Prime Minister. My response to the PM in Parliament. #March4Justice

Aviation workers stood together at Adelaide Airport this morning to demand fair treatment. Working people will not accept the cynical outsourcing of jobs at @Qantas or any other employer. @TWUAus will be standing with our members all the way on this fight💪#saveQantasJobs

So @Qantas has launched a bidding war among the states to move its HQ. This airline's management shouldn't get another cent of taxpayers' money until it agrees to drop plans to axe & outsource 2,500 workers and signs up to safety and labour standards #SaveQantasJobs

Hundreds at Sydney Airport protesting jobs cuts and Government inaction. @TWUNSW Secretary Richard Olsen: "There's only two things that need to happen. Alan Joyce needs to resign and the board needs to reinstate the sacked workers!"

Thank you to all unions and MPs who stood by the @TWUAus today in supporting Qantas workers in South Australia and across the country. $500 million of the community's money has been ploughed into Qantas to keep jobs. Workers are not being made redundant but are being outsourced.

This is one of the worst attacks on Australian workers since the Waterfront Dispute. These cuts are nothing short of corporate bastardry. Qantas has received more than $500 million from Australian tax payers and now wants to put thousands of Australians out of work.
