Dutton: Hastie ‘went on strike’ and cost us at election After he stunned colleagues by quitting Sussan Ley’s frontbench on Friday, the WA MP’s exit opened the door to speculation about the Liberal leader’s position as MPs return to Canberra.

Incredible attack on Andrew Hastie from Peter Dutton.

Australia made the right decision on 3 May.

Here is why I am completely committed to the GST deal for WA. It is rock solid.

Women belong in the House and the Senate.

Today marks 82 years since Enid Lyons and Labor's Dorothy Tangney entered the doors of Old Parliament House together as the first women in Australia to be elected to the House and the Senate.

The last thing Australia needs is another Tony Abbott.

“Another source said Mr Hastie was “reading right from the Tony Abbott playbook” when it came to his conduct.”

Announcing Labor’s plan to make Perth – and Australia – more electric vehicle friendly with Josh Wilson.

Providing $40 million to deliver public kerbside and fast EV charge points as part of our Net Zero Plan.

Turning Perth’s local values into meaningful national action. #auspol

“The future of the Australian Public Service is on the ballot at this election.

Peter Dutton has put public service cuts front and centre of the imminent campaign.

I am happy to have that fight.”

You can trust Labor to build and protect Medicare.

You can’t trust the Liberals to do anything.

At this election Australia faces a clear choice:

A stronger Medicare with more bulk billing for all Australians under Labor.

Or more cuts to Medicare under Peter Dutton's Liberals.

Libs run ex-One Nation hopeful in election clash with Carey He is running against Labor’s Housing Minister John Carey for the inner-city electorate.

Why are the WA Liberals are recruiting former One Nation candidates for the WA election?

Their new candidate for Perth was a member and staffer for One Nation.

Beyond disrespectful to the people of Perth.

Labor’s Medicare Urgent Care Clinics have now helped one million patients.

But the Liberal Party want to close every single one of them.

Make sure your friends know.

Liberals hate this one simple trick!

Actually reading and analysing their policies.

It’s 2024.

And the Liberals and Nationals are still saying stuff like this.

Seriously out of touch.

The Liberals always choose to say “no”.

Labor chooses to say “yes” to Building Australia’s Future.

Privatising the ABC is a ridiculous idea.

The ABC is Australia’s emergency broadcaster.

It should *never* be in the hands of a private owner.

Labor's pay rise for early educators:

1. 15% pay rise for Early Childhood Education and Care Workers
2. Capping fee increases from Child Care Centres
3. Supporting more than 200,000 early educators across the country

Labor's pay rise for early educators: 1. 15% pay rise for Early Childhood Education and Care Workers 2. Capping fee increases from Child Care Centres 3. Supporting more than 200,000 early educators across the country

Labor has just passed legislation to deliver our early educators a 15% pay rise.

On top of that, we're keeping costs down by limiting fee increases for families.

It’s good for workers and good for families.

This is win-win-win.

A win for educators.

A win for families.

And a win for children.

Today I tabled the APS State of the Service Report for 2023-24 in Parliament.

In doing so, I thank each and every public servant for the important work they do.

It is an honour to work to rebuild the Australian Public Service alongside Katy Gallagher.

Was a wonderful speech from Brian.

His belief in the cause of Labor shone through in every word.

Gorman: Public service on journey of continuous improvement Patrick Gorman said that making cuts to the APS was a false way of selling economic management to the public.

“While I wish there wasn’t a debate about cutting 36,000 public servants, that’s a policy proposition that’s been taken forward by the Liberal and National Party at this election”

“I think it’d be bad for the country so I’ve got a duty to call it out.”

1 in 4 women in Australia experience violence from an intimate partner. Everyone has the right to feel safe, no matter where they are. We can all help stop violence against women - at work, at home and in our communities. #16Days #NoExcuse
