People power gets it done! 💪🚛
$70M locked in to finally seal the last 10.8km of the Kennedy Development Road (Hann Highway) – a massive win for the North!
Credit to Bob Katter for never backing down and fighting tooth and nail for this region. If it weren’t for his relentless push, we’d still be stuck in the mud—literally. This is what real representation looks like! Now, let’s keep the momentum going and push for more investment in our regional roads.

🌱🐂 Stop the Attack on Buffel Grass – Focus on Real Pests!
Buffel grass isn’t the problem—it’s the foundation of northern Australia’s cattle industry! But instead of tackling real threats, the government is wasting time trying to list buffel grass as a Weed of National Significance (WoNS).
🔴 The REAL environmental threats they should be focusing on:
🔥 Lantana – Chokes out native plants and fuels dangerous bushfires.
🌵 Prickly Acacia – Invades millions of hectares, destroying biodiversity.
🌿 Rubber Vine – Smothers native trees and disrupts waterways.
🐷 Feral Pigs – Wreak havoc on crops, spread disease, and damage the land.
🐱 Feral Cats – Kill millions of native animals every night, devastating wildlife.
We have to feed our nation. Buffel grass supports the northern beef industry, while these other pests are the real ecological disasters!

Queensland Gas for Queenslanders
Queensland has vast gas reserves, yet locals face soaring energy prices while multinationals rake in massive profits and our industries struggle to survive. Now even the opposition is talking about a gas reserve policy—something Katter's Australian Party has been fighting for all along.
The major parties have ignored this issue for too long, siding with big corporations while Queensland businesses and families pay the price. We need real action to keep our gas here, lower costs, and protect jobs.
No more talk. It’s time to put Queenslanders first.
