| Bob Katter MP on the big issues facing AustraliaFriday 20 September 2024They say a week is a long time in politics, but the three months that have passed since he was originally meant to speak to us must be an eternity. As the clock winds down on the 47th Parliament, and with an increasing likelihood of a hung parliament post the next Federal election, North Queensland MP and ‘Father of the House’, the Hon Bob Katter MP, will potentially be a king maker once again. With a career in public life stretching more than 50 years across the Queensland and Commonwealth parliaments, what are the big issues Bob sees facing Australia and how will he use his potentially influential role to shape Australia, particularly for agriculture and regional and remote communities? |
