Dear John,

Whether it be around our kitchens, our businesses, or personal spending, most people don’t like waste. Most Australians fight waste in their homes, so it's no surprise that nothing annoys Aussies more when their elected governments blatantly waste money.

Some governments thrive on wasting taxpayers money, and if governments across Australia were to control the wastage of public funds, there is no dispute that less government spending would contribute to an easing of interest rates and inflation.

Recently, the Queensland state government all but confirmed they have adopted One Nation’s policy to dump the bulldozing and rebuilding of the Gabba Stadium.  The issue doesn’t stop there. We need a full account of how much money has been spent to date on the planning, preparation, and design of this terrible idea.

In NSW the state government announced $800 million to fast-track powerlines through rural and regional areas so reckless renewables can be connected to the grid. That’s a fat subsidy for unreliable and highly expensive energy, and certainly a fat waste. Our NSW team, led by Tania Mihailuk, will be focused on fighting renewable projects that . 

This week Senator Pauline Hanson travelled to Roma, where she was informed the state government paid an astonishing $250,000 per year for the last three years for temporary fencing around the local hospital. Imagine what could have been achieved in terms of attracting, retaining, and employing nurses for the local community with that money!

Labor’s constant waste of money is breathtaking. This week in Senate Estimates, Senator Malcolm Roberts has grilled Australia’s Human Rights Commission about how much money it spends on helping immigrants with their cases before the courts. He also inquired about how much money the Commission has spent helping Australians fight cases to resist being forced to receive the vaccine. It won't surprise anyone that the HRC didn't help Aussies who lost their jobs over the vaccine.

Of course, the greatest waste of this federal government was the $450 million spent on a failed referendum. It was an unnecessary and divisive  waste of money. Labor can never be trusted with money, and it is Pauline Hanson’s One Nation that will fight these outrageous wastes of taxpayers' dollars.
