The violent scenes that played out in central Sydney last night were deeply troubling, and entirely foreseeable.
We are Australians, first and foremost. Inviting a foreign head of state to Australia when the consequences for social cohesion are so obvious shows a serious failure of judgment.

Parliament returns for Week 2!
As always, I’ll assess each bill on its merits – is it workable, evidence-based, and in the best interests of Warringah & Australia?

Inflation pressures remain persistent.
In 2024–25, the Govt handed out $12.5 billion in fossil fuel subsidies. It’s time to rethink priorities.
We need smarter, climate-aligned budgeting that delivers real cost-of-living relief and invests in Australia’s future.

The public wants accountability and the issue of femicide and intimate partner violence elevated. Only a national RC will ensure state and territory responses, funding, policing, all failures, all policies, are scrutinised.

The Govt rushed legislation on firearms and hate crimes. While I had serious concerns about the process and moved amendments to strengthen the laws, I ultimately supported the Bills in the interests of public safety and social cohesion. Read my statement to better understand my amendments and vote.

Australia is making progress—but we must accelerate our transition to clean energy.
We need urgent action:
✅ Stronger targets for transport, agriculture and aviation
✅ A Sustainable Aviation Fuel mandate
✅ Accurate monitoring of methane

It’s been over 2 years since the late Peta Murphy’s inquiry into online gambling advertising & how it affects problem gamblers. Since then, Australians have lost $60 billion to gambling.
Australians need a government with the will and the courage to protect them from gambling harms.

There’s a lot of misinformation being spread and it's communities who pay the price.
We need honest, science-based leadership that brings communities together and delivers a clean, secure energy future.

More than 100 leaders have signed an open letter calling on the Albanese Government to back the COP30 Mutirão roadmap to phase out fossil fuels.
With over 80 nations already on board, Australia must choose: lead with integrity or fall further behind as the world moves on from coal and gas.

Regardless of whether Aus co-hosts COP31, we must continue to accelerate the transition to a clean & safe future. That includes phasing out coal & gas, stopping the approval of new fossil fuel projects, & investing in climate adaptation so that communities can cope with the challenges ahead.

The Govt has declared domestic violence a national emergency - now we need an emergency response.
One woman is killed every four days by a current or former partner. That is unacceptable

As world leaders meet at COP30 to strengthen climate ambition, the Liberal Party has announced it will abandon Net Zero.
It’s reckless and out of touch with community.
You can’t claim to accept climate science while walking away from the action it demands.

The Liberal Party’s decision to abandon Australia’s net-zero by 2050 target is reckless and a massive step backwards.

My amendments involved:
* Climate financial risk disclosures
* A duty of care to future generations
* Assessment of cumulative impacts
* Fair appeal rights under enviro orders

The govt’s environment laws ignore the biggest threat to nature - climate change. I’ve proposed several amendments, including requiring climate-related financial & transition risk disclosure as a consideration for all approvals, as well as embedding a duty of care for wellbeing of future generations

Disappointed by the govt’s rushed push to pass a 1,500-page environment bill without proper scrutiny or consultation. This is a key chance to protect nature & embed climate accountability—but the bill falls short.
