I now conclude my time as a Senator in the Federal Parliament. It’s been such a privilege to represent South Australia. Unconstrained by party lines, I never held back and I never voted against my conscience. I’m proud of what my team and I achieved. No regrets! #auspol

A solution is on the table to protect whistleblowers and fight corruption. The question is … will those in power act? #auspol

Despite belated huffing and puffing at GFG, @PMalinauskasMP is still leaving the next move to Sanjeev Gupta. Wait and see is a strategy that will enhance the intermediate pain being felt in #Whyalla and adds risk to the steelworks’ future. #auspol

@mjssydney For the Virginia class submarines, US steel will be used. For the AUKUS submarines from the UK (If they are ever built) will likely use steel from Bisalloy near Wollongong.

@rhematt @PMalinauskasMP @AlboMP Politics is about pressure.

Instead of committing to the future of Whyalla’s steelworks, yesterday @AlboMP transferred $800M to the US to pay for US shipyard investment and jobs. In response, today Trump has announced steel tariffs. Insult and injury for our steel industry. #auspol

Trump presses Japan to take more American LNG at expense of Australian exports. High time for @AlboMP to forsake the gas cartel and put Australian consumers ahead of Japanese industry with a domestic gas reservation policy. I’d like to see that. #auspol

@ChristineMilne One politician is alive to this. #politas

A big Advertiser front page this morning, but it misses the mark. Sanjeev Gupta’s on the scrap heap of history now. The big question today is where’s @AlboMP? Will the PM step up to take charge of a national crisis about a vital asset, the Whyalla steelworks. #auspol

Sanjeev Gupta’s international debt spiral means GFG can’t upgrade #Whyalla’s 60-year-old steelworks. The planned hydrogen power plant is collateral damage. Federal and state govts must take charge to prevent loss of vital steel-making capability. #auspol

Sanjeev Gupta’s empire of debt is spreading disaster far and wide. The Tahmoor mine is the latest casualty as GFG fails to pay bills large and small. A vital national asset, the #Whyalla steelworks hangs in the balance. Yet @AlboMP stays silent. #auspol

.@ServicesGovAU CEO David Hazlehurst pulls in a $828K salary (more than @AlboMP). In the wake of #Robodebt he’s ‘ambitious’  about using AI to deal with welfare recipients. What could possibly go wrong? #auspol

@Ozzytourer @RichardMarlesMP You are misguided. Research first, then tweet.

.@AlboMP has taxpayer funded lawyers lined up in the ART to prevent public access to a report on where to locate an #AUKUS high level radioactive waste site. I’m fighting his #secrecy, and think I’ll win. But having a 👇Plan B👇 is never a bad idea. #transparency #FOI #auspol

@rhematt @RichardMarlesMP Does seem unusual.

@Ozzytourer @RichardMarlesMP AUKUS is a formal policy of government (and is able to be probed using FOI). Dutton’s nuclear power plans are an opposition idea (which is not able to be probed using FOI). Think, then tweet.

@homeismyfriend @RobHunter7577 @RichardMarlesMP There is an agreement (it is subject to an FOI review) but we know from Senate Estimates there is no return of money if the US don’t supply the submarines. 🤦‍♂️

@TeddyBullpit @MarkDreyfusKCMP @AlboMP Jacqui Lambie does not support mandatory minimum sentencing.
