Devastating news coming out of Bondi tonight. I’m angry & distressed for the victims, their loved ones, the Jewish & broader local community, and our first responders. This is an attack on us all. Strong, wise, & decisive leadership will be needed now. @SkyNewsAust

@SenRaffCiccone 👏👏

The Foreign Affairs and Trade portfolios are the focus of today's Senate Estimates, examining Australia's diplomacy, international partnerships, trade priorities and role on the world stage. 🌏 It's always a pleasure to Chair the FADT Committee and guide these important hearings. 📹 Tune in from 9am AEDT here: youtube.com/watch?v=iSyLL9… 📜 See the program here: aph.gov.au/-/media/Estima… #auspol #foreignaffairs #austrade #ausecon #senateestimates #senate #fadt

@SenRaffCiccone Lest we forget

On Remembrance Day, we honour the more than 103,000 Australians who lost their lives in war, conflict and peace operations, and remember all who have served. At 11am today, we pause in solemn silence to reflect on their sacrifice. May we always cherish their memory. Lest we forget 🌺 #auspol #remembranceday #lestweforget #werememberthem @mattkeogh

A nice and interesting catch-up @SenRaffCiccone

Australia and Saudi Arabia share more than people realise, with similar sized economies, resource based foundations and a shared ambition to build their future through innovation. Some reflections from speaking at the ANZUK Saudi Forum. 🧵

🇸🇦🇦🇺 “The most exciting story of the 21st century.” That’s how HRH the Crown Prince described Saudi Arabia, and it’s hard to disagree. Spoke at the ANZUK Saudi Forum and caught up with mates and former colleagues, former Defence Minister @fitzhunter and former Trade and Investment Minister @StevenCiobo 🧵

What were you trying to achieve Sarah Ferguson during your interview with PNG PM James Marape tonight? Whatever you were thinking, you were certainly not acting in Australia’s national interest. @abc730

The NSW Planning Commission’s decision on the Redbank Power Station is disappointing. The proposal to re-commission the 150 MW generator and to fuel it with biomass seems a win-win for the environment and our struggling energy system. It would also be a win for farmers. 🤷‍♂️

How can the ACF appoint @AdamBandt as its CEO when he continues to say our biggest export earners “pay no tax” when it’s completely untrue? It seems the ACF has little integrity as an organisation!

Last month's Australian American Leadership Dialogue forum in Adelaide brought together more than 260 leaders from politics, business, academia and the community to strengthen the bonds between our two nations. 🇦🇺🇺🇸 I recently shared my thoughts in an op-ed about why the Australia-US alliance is stronger than AUKUS and deeper than defence.

Delighted to attend the Australian American Leadership Dialogue in Adelaide alongside my good friend, former Defence Minister Joel Fitzgibbon @fitzhunter - insightful conversations on the future of our shared alliance 🇦🇺🇺🇸 #AALD @the_AALD

@creade1 dedicated herself to the work of the @CrawfordFund for 37 years. Tonight we said thank you and farewell. Cathy’s service (and that of her family) to our nation has been outstanding.

Missing Prof Glenn Denning’s #25CFConf keynote? Hear him on Radio National Breakfast @ColumbiaSIPA @ACIARAustralia abc.net.au/listen/program…

A great contribution 👏

“We don’t have to hold our economy back to be a world leader in #climateaction. We need to adjust, recalibrate & broaden our course of action,” said @fitzhunter, delivering the Sir John Crawford Memorial Address. “We need to put the ‘net’ back in ‘net zero’ emissions.” #25CFConf

Looking forward delivering the Sir John Crawford Memorial Address tonight.

Strange political bedfellows but fond memories for us both here @AlexanderDowner #oldparliamenthouse
