Casual coalminers were underpaid, stripped of entitlements, and betrayed by those meant to protect them. Despite ridicule, I persisted.

Labor ignored One Nation’s equal pay bill, that would enable the back payment of stolen wages, then copied some of it under...| Malcolm Roberts
The Home Affairs Legislation Amendment (2025 Measures No. 1) Bill is yet another bill to fix yet another Labor-Liberal ‘uniparty’ immigration failure.

This bill authorises deportation to Nauru—at a staggering cost of around $1M per person – and removes legal protections li...| Malcolm Roberts
