Rebekha Sharkie has a message for supporters of repealing the legislation, “who call themselves Christian, as indeed I do”. Read Matthew 25
... Matthew 25 makes it very clear – Christians should see everyone as Christ in the flesh. And in the New Testament, stranger and neighbour are in fact synonymous. The golden rule of love your neighbour as yourself refers not just to the people you know, your neighbours, but also to those you do not know.
And I am sure I do not need to remind every person who follows Christ that Christ too was a refugee.
If the government is successful in repealing this legislation it will cause much harm. Needless harm. Unnecessary harm. It is quite simply a wicked thing that we are doing in this place. It is unnecessary.
And I therefore, in the strongest possible terms, oppose this bill, as will my Centre Alliance colleagues in the other place.
Peter Dutton’s official statement on Reece Kershaw’s recommendation as the new AFP commissioner:
The Government will recommend to the Governor-General that Mr Reece Kershaw APM be appointed as the 8th Australian Federal Police Commissioner.
Commissioner Kershaw commenced with the Northern Territory Police Force (NTPF) in February 2011 and in April 2015 was appointed Commissioner of Police and Chief Executive Officer of the Northern Territory Police, Fire and Emergency Services.
Prior to commencing with the NTPF Commissioner Kershaw was with the Australian Federal Police, including secondments to the National Crime Authority, the Australian Crime Commission and overseas postings to The Hague, East Timor and the Solomon Islands.
He is a Graduate of the Federal Bureau of Investigation Law Enforcement Executive Development Program and was awarded the Australian Police Medal in the 2016 Australian Day Honours.
We congratulate Commissioner Kershaw on his appointment at a time when the AFP needs to be future ready to meet the challenges posed by those that would seek to do us harm, here and abroad.
The Government again sincerely thanks Commissioner Colvin for the service that he has provided to the Australian community for the last 30 years as a member of the AFP.
Commissioner Colvin enjoyed an extensive AFP career that covered roles in serious and organised crime, counter terrorism, chief of staff and high tech crime. In 2002 Andrew was awarded the Order of Australia Medal for his investigative work into the 2002 Bali bombings. We wish Andrew every success in his future endeavours.
The medevac repeal legislation is back in the House.
Technically, it is the ongoing debate on Andrew Giles’s amendment, which you will find a few posts down.
Rebekha Sharkie is talking in support of the amendment – she has been one of the fiercest advocates for medevac, the reason Centre Alliance will be fighting to keep medevac in the Senate.

Stephen Jones on superannuation, which is one of Labor’s favourite topics today, thanks mostly to Craig Kelly:Stephen Jones on superannuation, which is one of Labor’s favourite topics today, thanks mostly to Craig Kelly:
This morning we read that influential backbencher Craig Kelly is putting out some policy ideas that the government should allow superannuation fund members to be able to dip into their superannuation fund to buy their own home. This is an idea that’s been kicked around many times and has been shown to be not in the interests of fund members. What’s more, and what’s of greater concern, is that Mr Kelly is proposing that the family home should be included in the assets test for pensioners.This morning we read that influential backbencher Craig Kelly is putting out some policy ideas that the government should allow superannuation fund members to be able to dip into their superannuation fund to buy their own home.

The prime minister needs to rule this out immediately. This would amount to a gigantic pensioner retiree tax. The prime minister needs to rule this out. He must rule this out. What is quite clear, is that a government without a policy agenda is finding that its backbenchers are busily trying to fill in the gaps. Whether it’s a new proposition for a retiree tax through the personal family home being a part of the pensioner assets test, or whether it’s the minister for energy freelancing on nuclear power. It’s time for Scott Morrison to step up to ensure that he stops playing the parlour political games and focuses on the real issues that members of the public care about.The prime minister needs to rule this out immediately.

I just remind you that we have now had three vessels in only a short period of weeks. There were boats on the water anticipating a Labor government being elected in May.

In that circumstance, I am not taking those people and I have been clear about it.

I believe that for a long time, Labor has effectively managed Mark Dreyfus through the process. I think they have done the job that the Labor caucus should do.
