The Greens have been saying shutting down greyhound racing will save the budget millions. It turns out it will cost the same amount to run two codes as it does three. So the economics are: - destroy jobs and lives - lose millions in turnover - don’t save a single cent

Appenzell wins a thrilling Launceston Cup for Mick Stringer! Thanks to the Launceston GRC for asking me to present the winning trophy. The #greyhound racing community love their dogs and I’m proud to stand with them as they fight against the Liberal-Green deal to shut them down.

Good to see the insane TasWater pricing proposal knocked on the head by the Economic Regulator. This from the Economic Regulator’s draft report deserves highlighting. What a mess. #politas

After months of pressure, North Launceston Footy Club are finally getting its $100k for clubroom design. Shame it took Minister Duigan being censured in Parliament for the government to do the right thing #politas

They signed off on the plan in June then claimed they opposed it in July. #politas
Excellent to have secured bipartisan support from @DeanWinterMP in opposing TasWater's proposed 40% price hike today. Somewhat perplexing it's taken 6 months. Below excerpt from the ABC on July 24, 2025. #politas

Back in the news today. It’s been three years since it happened.
Bronte, Cody, Maree, Lily and Blake were injured on their way home from a #tasracing harness racing meet. Some had been working for 18 hours straight. Here's what's happened since. *This speech was delivered at a bit after 1am on Friday morning.

Then and now. The @felix_ellis sellout to the Greens.
The Greens are getting ready to form a Labor-Greens government. And they’re drawing up a list of what they will get in return. The Greens know supply and confidence is a deal, and they’re ready to name their price. #politas

Three MPs have since left their respective parties and there is no such law or Bill. #politas
We’re going to change the law so MPs who quit their party lose their seat in Parliament 💪
