Let’s go @Socceroos 🇦🇺 The whole country is cheering you on.

Diversity is a strength of modern Australia. And no matter what language you speak, or faith you practice - every Australian deserves to feel safe, respected and valued. Great to talk with locals in South East Melbourne today.

My heartfelt condolences to everyone mourning the passing of Trish Crossin. As a teacher in remote schools, Trish dedicated herself to bringing new opportunities to the people of the Northern Territory. She brought that same determination and those same values to the Senate. As the first woman to represent the NT in Parliament, Trish was a trailblazer. But what drove her was making that trail easier for future generations to follow. Trish served her community, our party and the parliament with strength, decency and pride. May she rest in eternal peace.

Yesterday was a dark day in our nation's history. But we are stronger than the cowards who did this. We refuse to let them divide us. Australia will never submit to division, violence or hatred - and we will come through this together.

Today I stood alongside my friend Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto on HMAS Canberra to make an historic announcement.   The governments of Australia and Indonesia have just substantively concluded negotiations on a new bilateral treaty on our common security.   Australia’s relationship with Indonesia is based on friendship, trust, mutual respect – and a shared commitment to peace and stability in our region.   This treaty is a recognition from both our nations that the best way to secure that peace and stability is by acting together. It signals a new era in the Australia-Indonesia relationship.   The treaty is predominantly based on the landmark security agreement signed by the Keating and Suharto governments 30 years ago.   It will build on the 2006 Lombok Treaty that, among other things, reaffirmed Indonesia’s territorial integrity and sovereignty. It also builds on the Defence Cooperation Agreement we signed last year.   This treaty will commit Australia and Indonesia to: ✅ Consult at a Leader and Ministerial level on a regular basis on matters of security ✅ Identify and undertake mutually beneficial security activities ✅ And if either or both country’s security is threatened – to consult and consider what measures may be taken either individually or jointly to deal with those threats
