Sincere condolences to families, colleagues and friends of three who lost their lives in the Ballina boating tragedy overnight, including two @MarineRescueNSW volunteers. It’s a sad reminder of the risks our frontline emergency services workers take on every day in their work to keep us safe.

The last decade shows the need for sovereign capability in areas like energy and medicine - but to go down a more general protectionist route would be a huge folly. We need more productivity, not less by propping up industries which can’t otherwise compete, if we want to maintain and improve our living standards. Let’s not return to Australia’s relative decline in the 1960s and 1970s under former protectionist policies or, worse still, go down the Argentinian path. #nswpol #auspol

Full time equivalent teacher numbers in NSW public schools have actually been falling under the Minns Labor Government.

Another child protection failure from the Minns Labor Government. More than 550 children in the care of the Minister for Families and Communities are barely going to school. #nswpol #nsweducation

“Punters lost a record $9.3 billion on NSW poker machines last year – a surge of 8 per cent on the previous 12 months” - a litany of ruined lives and a shocking indictment of the NSW Government’s failure to act. smh.com.au/national/nsw/1… @smh @wesleymission

NSW Governments are the primary funders of our community preschools - but their viability is under threat from the Minns Labor Government’s refusal to fund them to pay their teachers competitive salaries. A very helpful briefing today from the @IEUNSWACT.

The federation is broken and needs radical reform. A good place to start is GST distribution and stopping the rip-off of NSW every year. This year NSW’s share of the national GST total will shrink yet again, to 25.5% - although we have over 31% of the national population. NSW will get back just 82 cents for every dollar paid in GST by its citizens.

The brilliant Jess Hill (@jessradio) was the keynote presenter at the Family Co’s International Women’s Day Brunch today. Her work, in particular her seminal book See What You Made Me Do (now with a new edition), has been a key driver in dramatically raising awareness of, and inspiring policy responses to, coercive control in NSW.

Now more than ever it’s important to protect the rule of law and the integrity of our civic institutions; and to promote public engagement in Parliamentary democracy. Delighted to speak with Legal Studies students from Caringbah High School today about these matters.

It’s great to see the M12 opening this weekend. Like the Sydney Metro - Western Sydney Airport line from St Marys to Bradfield, this is yet another project planned, designed and funded under the Liberals. No new metros or motorways are planned under the low vision, low energy Minns Labor Government, which is busy cutting ribbons on Liberal projects.
