Today we recognise the men & women behind the wheel who keep Australia moving.
On National Truckers’ Day, thank you to every truckie for the long hours, early starts, time away from family & the kilometres travelled to keep our country moving.
Stay safe out there & thank you.

Great to attend the recent Murrumbateman Community Association & hear directly from locals about the issues which matter to the community particularly the upcoming Field Days on 17 & 18 October.
Community voices matter and I’ll continue to make sure they are heard in Canberra.

Spoke to Kieran Gilbert on News24 about the latest inflation figures, the Coalition’s Fuel Price Shield proposal to ease cost-of-living pressures facing Australian families and businesses.
Watch the full interview here.

The Coalition’s Fuel Price Shield will automatically halve fuel tax when the two-week average Brent crude price rises above US$100 a barrel. This would cut the tax on fuel by around 27 cents per litre, or about $15 on a typical tank during price spikes.

Our Police serve, protect and keep the peace. On National Police Remembrance Day we honour those who lost their lives in the line of duty and those who have passed away over the past 12 months.
Marked this sombre day alongside former PM Tony Abbott at a special in Wagga Wagga.

Devastating news from Sydney today with the loss of NSW Police Constable Mia Lay.
We owe an enormous debt of gratitude to the men & women of our Police forces who put themselves in harm’s way to keep our communities safe.
My thoughts are with Mia’s friends & family.💙💙

Joined about 250 residents of Wagga Wagga at a sombre candlelight vigil to mourn the death of a young local woman and to say no more domestic violence … in our community, State and nation. Enough is enough.

Vale, Gary Stephen “Angry” Anderson.
A great Australian rocker, Rose Tattoo frontman & one of a kind.
Got to know Angry when he ran as a Nationals’ candidate. A great bloke with a genuine empathy for people & a wonderfully warm disposition.
His like will never be seen again.
