As a father to a young daughter with Autism, I know how hard and challenging the NDIS can be. With the right supports, I was able to hear Emery say “I love you dad” for the first time earlier this year. It is something I will never forget and gives me the drive I have today.

@P_Thompson88 Why would Salvos be funded by Federal Government. What Service members are you talking about.

After 125 years of service Anthony Albanese’s Labor Government has scrapped funding for the The Salvation Army’s Sallyman program. Whether out in the field, on operations or back home, our service members trust the Sallymen for support, pastoral care, and a listening ear.

PETITION: I want to make burning the Australian Flag a criminal offence. In the next sitting of Federal Parliament I will move a motion to do this. The petition link; philthompson.com.au/australianflag/ Together let’s make this a criminal offence 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

It is deeply personal and an insult to every single Australian every time one of these thugs puts a torch to our national flag without consequence. 🧵 3/3

As a soldier I wore the Australian flag on my shoulder, proud to serve underneath it. My mates who were killed in combat, died in training or succumbed to their war within had the Australian flag draped over their coffins. 🧵 2/3

I was honoured to officially open the North Queensland Military Muster with my daughter Astin. 1000’s of people attend the muster, to learn about the military history of Townsville and North QLD, from the Boer War to present, recognising, remembering and preserving that history.

Honoured to be a part of the opening the 48th parliament at the Australian War Memorial laying a wreath as Shadow Assistant Minister for Defence. Always a very special occasion, I reflected on my mates killed in action and the many who succumbed to their war within #LestWeForget

On the 18th July and every day I remember my mate, our brother, Ben Ranaudo who was killed in action 16 years ago. In the same IED blast Paul suffered significant life changing injuries including having his leg blown off. #LestWeForget

There is a clear and concerning culture of silence in the NDIS portfolio at the moment, which is completely at odds with what is in the best interest of Australians living with a disability The Minister needs to be honest with the sector and public about their plans for the NDIS

I want to give a voice to the voiceless, especially those vulnerable people who have fallen through the cracks. Navigating the NDIS should not be an additional challenge or burden for those families and vulnerable individuals who are already facing so much.

Over the past few days, a lot of people have asked me how I feel about being appointed the Shadow Assistant Minister for the NDIS. The truth is, I asked for the position & I am honoured & humbled to have been trusted with it.

PROUD HISTORY: Our ANZACs shaped the fabric of what it means to be Australian. Their memory must live on, always. Lest We Forget.

RIVERWAY STADIUM LIGHTING UPGRADE: Big Bash, T20, AFL and AFLW fixtures will be coming to Townsville under an elected Coalition Government. Fantastic to have secured a $6M election commitment which will see millions more injected into our economy, and boost local club sport too.
