Tomorrow in the Senate, my “No Jab No Pay” Repeal Bill finally gets to a vote. If passed it would restore the basic right of parents to object to some or all of the childhood vaccination schedule for personal, religious, medical or philosophical reasons without the government cutting off Child Care Subsidy and Family Tax Benefit. Financial coercion is not consent. It’s time to end this policy and put decision-making back where it belongs, with Australian families. Thanks to Senator Babet for using his time in the chamber to move the Bill. To hear more from me and stay up to date, signup to my email newsletter here:

Unfortunately, this morning my "No Jab No Pay" Repeal Bill was voted down by the Senate with only Senators Pauline Hanson 🇦🇺, Malcolm Roberts 🇦🇺, Senator Whitten, Senator Babet, Senator Sean Bell and myself voting in support. It’s my view that it is fundamentally wrong to tie childcare payments to vaccination status. Australian parents are entitled to object on medical or other grounds. Thanks to Senator Ralph Babet for using his private Senator’s time on this important Bill. To hear more from me and stay up to date, signup to my email newsletter here:

Today I am introducing the Broadcasting Services Amendment (Register of Media Interests) Bill 2026. If passed the Bill would require journalists and others inside the media to publicly disclose what they earn, any gifts they receive and the origin of same. If the news media in this country are as influential as we are told, then Australians deserve to know this information.

The Labor Government has released an exposure draft of its Online Safety Amendment (Digital Duty of Care) Bill 2026 and it’s much worse than I first thought. Australians now have platforms like X where they can speak without institutional gatekeepers and the political class of the left hates that. Instead of winning the argument, they are rewriting the rules of speech itself and calling it “safety.” This is not about protecting people. It is about controlling the conversation.

Labor is moving a new amendment today that gives the eSafety Commissioner more power to enforce the unnecessary under-16 social media ban. If passed it will let the eSafety Commissioner summons parties to answer questions regarding age compliance under oath and face jail or big fines if they refuse. Unsurprisingly I will not support it.

Australians are living through a quiet but profound shift. Piece by piece, under soft language of “safety,” “convenience,” “protecting the children,” and “national security,” the architecture of a surveillance state is being constructed. Age-verification mandates, facial recognition in retail and public spaces, AI-powered scanning of social media and chats, expanded intelligence powers, smart-city monitoring and massive AI data centres are not isolated tools. Combined with digital identity and the prospect of programmable money, they form an integrated control system right in front of our eyes.

In our once free country, you used to own the things you paid for and didn’t live your life on subscription. The digital prison is closing in. Not just in Australia but globally. Once it’s complete, your freedom will rely on your compliance to big government and big tech who will control the off switch to your participation in society.

The Australian Security Intelligence Organisation Amendment Bill makes ASIO’s compulsory questioning powers broader and expands them with vague new grounds. I voted AGAINST the Bill. Extraordinary powers should never become ordinary. This afternoon the Australian Senate expanded the powers of the surveillance state.

This morning the Senate passed the Fair Work Amendment (Baby Priya’s) Bill 2025 which provides that employers must pay parental leave to employees who suffer the tragedy of a stillbirth. I moved an amendment to the Bill which would have prevented intentional terminations of pregnancy potentially being treated as stillbirths for the purposes of the Fair Work Act, including paid parental leave provisions which this Bill creates. Unfortunately, my amendment was defeated, and the Bill passed. Thank you to the following Senators who supported my amendment: Senator Leah Blyth Senator Sarah Henderson Malcolm Roberts 🇦🇺 Senator Babet Senator Jessica Collins Jacinta Nampijinpa Senator Tyron Whitten Senator Sean Bell

The European Commission President was addressing the Parliament today, but I couldn't make it.

The media used to seek the truth but in 2026 all you get are the same talking points, night after night, no hard questions asked. The ad revenue dried up and taxpayers got stuck with the $150 million bill! 60% of 18-24 year olds have never used a newspaper for news, and most have tuned out TV and radio too. Independent voices are already doing the job legacy media forgot how to do. I suppose we should feel sorry for journalists with a HECS debt for a career that might have less than 3 years on the clock. Nah. Bye bye, legacy media, you won’t be missed.

Just as the pharmaceutical companies fire up their “get your flu shot” campaigns, suddenly two birds in Western Australia test positive for avian influenza. What timing! The same pattern every year, new scare, same solution, roll up your sleeve and take your shot to protect grandma (or something). Also from the “trust the science” brigade we learn that you should get your human flu shot to prevent a bird flu pandemic (or something).

Every five years the Australian Census demands intimate details of your lifestyle under threat of fines. It begs the question though, what relevance are questions about sexual identity? Australians deserve a simple, anonymised snapshot, not a vehicle for social experiments.

In a few weeks, the Senate will vote on the ASIO Amendment Bill (No. 2)—and every Australian who values freedom under the law should be paying attention. This Bill doesn’t just extend extraordinary powers—it makes them permanent. Powers that were meant to expire by March 2027 would instead become ongoing. It expands compulsory questioning for adults and even minors, weakens safeguards, limits access to legal counsel, and lacks proper judicial oversight. These are not ordinary powers. They allow the state to compel answers under threat of penalty. That is a serious intrusion into personal liberty. Of course, national security matters—but it must never come at the unchecked expense of freedom. For these reasons, I will NOT be supporting this Bill.

The media has had a field day in recent weeks claiming Australia is in the middle of an escalating whooping cough (pertussis) outbreak with many outlets repeating the myth that Australia is currently experiencing the highest records of whooping cough since records began 30 years ago. Data from the National Notifiable Disease Surveillance System however shows that whooping cough notifications peaked in 2024 at around 57,000 cases and fell to approximately 25,000 in 2025, indicating the peak has already passed. Why is the public messaging continuing to frame whooping cough as an escalating outbreak when the data says the peak is behind us?

It’s preposterous. The average Australian citizen now needs a team of accountants and experts just to navigate the regulatory maze its Parliaments have created. Multiply that across dozens of regulatory bodies and you get a system that will trap the unwary. Decades of politicians have created an overly complex, overly regulated society where obeying the law feels almost impossible for normal people. This isn’t freedom, it’s control.

This morning the Senate voted down my order for production of documents relating to Australia’s excess death rate. Why won’t Labor and the Greens vote for access to these documents? To hear more from me and stay up to date, signup to my email newsletter here:
