Wake up, Australia, before it is too late. Australians need and want leaders who can inspire and give hope in difficult times.

We have lost all our big Australian industries and icons, including Qantas when it sold 25 % of its shares and a controlling interest to British Airways.

In this financial year we will be spending at least $1.5 billion on foreign aid and we cannot be sure that this money will be properly spent, as corruption and mismanagement in many of the recipient countries are legend.

To survive in peace and harmony, united and strong, we must have one people, one nation, one flag.

I will fight hard to keep my seat in this place, but that will depend on the people who sent me here.

The government must do all it can to help reduce interest rates for business.
