David Littleproud

No action taken in Victoria.

Nationals MP David Littleproud praising the action.

Good on the New South Wales government and now the state government does it.

We should get in behind them and it should be a failure complete.

No action taken in Victoria.

Nationals MP David Littleproud praising the action.

Good on the New South Wales Government and any other state government does it.

We should get in behind them, and it should be a fait accompli.

How will that work? We'll talk about that.

We're going to talk to David Littleproud, our man on the inside, former leader of the Nationals, about what's going on in Canberra.

Do you remember, Nick, there's part two of that, And he was in the prison game, if you could call it that.

He was a prison officer for about 13 years, and he had to get out.

Thank you, my friend.

on the mic enjoying the groove I'm singing happy blues got nothing to lose

Time once again for a look at what's going on in and around Canberra with our man on the inside, former leader of the Nationals, David Littleproud.

He's there in his school uniform, looking pristine, looking very much like a King's School prefect in his office at Canberra because everyone's back to Canberra because the Parliament is starting again today.

What a show for you this morning.

Uh, David Littleproud will join us very shortly.

Um, Operation Harvest, it's this amazing, amazing initiative, um, that has transpired and formed from off the back of what is a wonderful, wonderful initiative where veterans go and work in agriculture.

Garry Spencer will join us.

It's all there as well.

Uh, let's get into it.

David Littleproud to join us first up.

Next Tuesday, pretty significant day.

Thursday morning, rural Queensland today.

David Littleproud is our first guest, and obviously next Tuesday, we talked with Jim Wilmot earlier this week, a, a massive day in the Maranoa.

Uh, th- we've got to get some sort of control on what is going on with these wind farms, the setbacks, the data centers, the, the solar, solar, uh, farms.

There is so much carnage going on, and it's in a lot of electorates in rural and regional Queensland.

I appreciate your time this morning.

Um, I, I, I will get to other issues on another chat, but it's so important that this next Tuesday is, is, uh, attended and it's supported.

Uh, David Littleproud, doing a great job.

Thanks for being with us this morning.

still about as about the same as for the economy and it's still 28 of the the gdp so it's too high and a simple way to take pressure off the reserve bank and i guess this is what koshi was saying is for governments to cut their spending uh that would spread the pain more broadly that rather than mortgage rates going up and homeowners bearing the all the cost uh it would spread the pain more broadly and take pressure off inflation and take pressure off interest rates

Okay, here's a question I put to David Littleproud.

And I said, okay, well, we don't want governments to spend, but we don't want spending on infrastructure, much needed infrastructure to stop hospitals, roads, that sort of thing, transport.

So David Littleproud is saying, no, the government's got to be more discretionary when it comes to its spending.

Run it like you do your household budget.

What can we do without it? Let's not stop spending on things we desperately need.
