Just awful to hear the news of the passing of Andrew Symonds. Roy was an incredible talent and a great character of Australian sport. Loved by his teammates and fans alike, he will be sorely missed by many. My condolences to his family, friends and the cricket community.

Deeply saddened to hear of the passing of UAE President, HH Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan. Sheikh Khalifa presided over an extraordinary period in his nation’s history, during which Australia-UAE ties reached new heights. Deepest condolences to his family and the UAE people.

Great news! Alongside the Olympics, the FIFA Women’s World Cup, and the Commonwealth Games, this is important for our economy.
Major events create jobs and provide a huge boost to our tourism industry. Let’s keep heading in the right direction. Now is not the time to turn back.

I wish Anthony Albanese all the best for his recovery after testing positive to COVID. Everyone’s experience with COVID is different and as Labor’s campaign continues, I hope he does not experience any serious symptoms.

There are more Australians in work than ever before.
17,900 more jobs were created in March, meaning there are 394,400 more Australians in work than before the pandemic hit. 77.0% of Australia’s working age population is now in work.
Our economic plan is working.

Our Govt has the economic plan to create 1.3m more jobs over the next five years.
Investing in manufacturing, skills, & new infrastructure & backing our regions & small businesses. That’s how we’ll create jobs right across the economy.
A strong economy means a stronger future.

Appalled by reports of atrocities against Ukrainian civilians by Russian troops in Bucha and other towns. The targeting of innocent civilians and civilian infrastructure are war crimes. Russia must and will be held accountable for the actions of its armed forces.

Shocked to hear of accounts of summary execution, rape, looting & other crimes by Russian troops in Bucha & across Ukraine. The targeting & treatment of innocent men & women in this way is despicable. Russia must & will be held accountable for the actions of its forces.

Fuel excise will be cut in half. For the next 6 months, Australians will save 22 cents a litre every time they fill up their car.
A family with 2 cars who fill up once a week could save around $30 a week or around $700 over the next 6 months.
