Australian Greens Senator for Lutruwita/Tasmania
Authorised by N McKim, Australian Greens
2025 has already been the worst on record for the destruction of koala habitat. Almost 4,000 hectares – the size of four Sydney Airports – has been approved to be bulldozed this year.

My privilege to meet today with a delegation of Australia’s Tibetan community.

We spoke about the need for self-determination for Tibetan people, and the importance of protecting the future succession of the Dalai Lama from Chinese government interference.

For some teals, the problem with negative gearing is that wage earners are using it. You don't fix a rort by only letting rich people use it.

Labor has sanctioned Mehreen Faruqi for holding up a sign in the Senate, but won’t sanction Israel for its genocide in Gaza.

It’s like peaceful activism is worse than murdering countless Palestinian babies.

What’s happening in Gaza is not a war. Calling it a war is a deliberate attempt to obscure the truth.
Let’s name it up.
It’s a barbaric slaughter, a genocide, a mass murder. And Labor has made Australia complicit.
End the genocide and free Palestine ✊🏼🇵🇸

It is deeply disappointing that the Prime Minister’s outline of his economic agenda today is a love letter to the Liberal party’s economic worldview.

Greens pressure works!

While Labor is browsing the Greens' website looking for policy ideas, they should also copy and paste our plan to get dental into Medicare and end native forest logging.

Tasmanian farmed salmon is stinking rotten extinction salmon. Do not eat it.

I'll accept the challenge Jim.

A debate between Angus Taylor MP and Jim Chalmers MP would be an absolute snorefest anyway, as they are in lockstep on the big issues.

Mr Taylor has gone quiet so the Treasurer now has a chance to debate someone who will actually disagree with him.

This is the guy who promised not to increase interest rates then went on a record-breaking spree of increases, increasing cost of living pain for millions of Australians. The whole point of interest rate rises is to reduce demand by causing financial pain.

7 Tasmania has just been bought by ADH. ADH lists Advance as one of its partners. Advance are funded by billionaires and fossil fuel interests and have a stated intention to destroy the Greens. Be warned. We are watching the oligarchs take over in the US and it’s happening here.

Greens pressure works!

Labor’s extra investment into Medicare will make a huge difference. This announcement is a significant part of the Greens ‘GP for Free’ plan.

We have pressured Labor to act, and they finally have - voting Greens forces Labor to do better.

Mortgage stress is increasing yet Commbank have just posted a staggering $5.13bn half-yearly profit, up 7% on the preceding 6 months.

Last year Commbank CEO defended corporate profiteering when he whinged about the Greens plan to tax excessive corporate profits.

Yesterday we learned of millions of dollars in corporate donations to the major parties. Now the CEOs come to Parliament to dictate how our country should run.

Instead of selling out to them, we should make them pay their fair share of tax so more people can have a better life.

Uncle Jim’s defence of his country against industrial logging has inspired many including me. He should be warmly thanked rather than convicted and fined. The real crimes here are destroying Aboriginal heritage, logging species into extinction and heating the planet.

He hasn’t even left Parliament yet and he’s already landed a plum corporate gig for a major bank that has given his party nearly $800,000 in donations in the past decade. It’s a big club and you’re not in it.
