✝️ On this sacred Good Friday, Christians all over the world pause to reflect on the sacrifice of Jesus.
May His example guide us to live with compassion and tolerance in our daily lives.
I'm pleased to share my Easter message in @ilglobonews, wishing everyone a Buona Pasqua this long weekend.

🇦🇺🇮🇹 Delighted to welcome Italy's new Ambassador to Australia, Nicola Lener, to Parliament House.
We had a terrific discussion on strengthening ties between our countries, with a shared appreciation for culture and innovation.
As Chair of the Australia-Italy Parliamentary Country Group, I look forward to building on this important partnership following the signing of the Australia-EU Free Trade Agreement.

It's with a heavy heart that we bring you today's episode after the sudden passing of one of the most cherished members of the Sunday Footy Show team.
Rest in peace, Terry Digby ❤️
For more than four decades, the Islamic Iranian regime has exported violence and hate across the world, and its actions must be called out.
In my interview with @Kieran_Gilbert on @SkyNewsAust, I stressed that international law must be applied consistently and that Iran can't be allowed to acquire nuclear weapons.
Australia stands with the Iranian people – including the community here in Australia – who deserve freedom from the regime's oppression.

This is a moment for moral clarity: stand with those fighting for freedom, dignity and self-determination and reject oppression in all its forms.
In the Senate, I spoke about the conflict in Iran and the broader Middle East, and why Australia stands firmly with the Iranian people.
I also outlined the brutal reality of the Islamic Iranian regime and why it must never be allowed to acquire nuclear weapons.

Australia's position is unequivocal: we stand with the Iranian people and support decisive action to ensure the Islamic Republic of Iran never acquires nuclear weapons.
For decades, this brutal regime has oppressed its own citizens, jailing women for showing their hair, executing dissidents and crushing peaceful protesters with bullets and prison cells.
Its reach has extended beyond its borders, with at least two orchestrated attacks on Australian soil in 2024.
Thanks to The @Australian for covering my Senate speech. You can read my full remarks here:

Australia stands with the brave people of Iran in their struggle against oppression by a regime that continues to deny them their fundamental rights.
During Question Time, I asked the Minister for Foreign Affairs, @SenatorWong, about the Australian Government's response following joint strikes by Israel and the United States.
I also sought an update on efforts to assist Australians impacted by airspace closures across the Middle East, including those in the United Arab Emirates.

The Australian Senate has just passed a motion condemning the Iranian regime's brutal repression of peaceful protesters.
It recognises the injustice and profound suffering endured by the Iranian people, including the Australian-Iranian community.
I am proud to co-sponsor this motion, which affirms Australia's solidarity with the people of Iran and reflects the Australian Government's commitment to stand with them in pursuit of justice and human dignity.

Australia stands with the people of Iran in condemning the regime's brutal repression of peaceful protests and its denial of basic human rights.
In the Senate, I called out these actions and endorsed the Australian Government's targeted sanctions on those responsible, including individuals and entities linked directly to the IRGC.
The Albanese Government recognises the courage, grief and advocacy of the Iranian people – including those in Australia – and will continue to act firmly with international partners in defence of human rights and international law.

Today, one week on from the Bondi terror attack, we observe a Day of Reflection to honour the victims and stand in solidarity with the Australian Jewish community. 🕯️
At 6:47pm, Australians are encouraged to light a candle and observe a minute's silence, with buildings lit up yellow for the evening, and television and radio networks asked to pause in remembrance.
Observed on the final full day of Chanukah, this Day of Reflection is a moment to pause and affirm that hatred and violence will never define who we are as a nation.
#auspol @AlboMP
When hate seeks to divide, Australia comes together.
Today, I'm reaching out to my Jewish friends and encouraging others to check in on their mates too. You belong here, you are valued and you are not alone.
The light and hope of Chanukah, and the values we share as Australians, must never be eclipsed by violence or hatred.
