🐄🐓BELLINGEN AG SHOW THIS WEEKEND🎪
Don’t forget the Bellingen Show is on this weekend at the Showground.

Come along this afternoon or tomorrow to experience real regional living at its finest and support our locals.
Thank you to the Bellinger River Agricultural Society Inc for a delicious lunch! Congratulations to everyone involved for putting on such a successful show #bellingenshire.#bellingenshowi#agshowsnswe#supportlocalsnsw #supportlocal
Well done Pat and Nats, weather on your side for a change !!
NSW SES North Eastern Zone Awards Ceremony
It was humbling to be able to present the awards to our outstanding SES Volunteers this morning in Coffs Harbour. The service of our dedicated members at this morning’s presentation collectively added up to 517 years in total!
Simply incredible.
I would like to thank every reward recipient for your years of service and for keeping our community safe. You so often put yourselves in harms way for the protection of others.
Thanks should also go to all of our other frontline emergency service volunteers who do it because they care. You all deserve recogniti#volunteerappreciationi#NSWSESN#SESAwardsA#coffsharbourarbour
Thank you for your attendance and ongoing support Pat Conaghan MP
Thank you Pat Conaghan MP for attending today & presenting National Awards
Congratulations frontline officers.
As we head into Budget week, a timely reminder of the rampant spending we have seen in recent years that has amounted to $50k a minute being spent on interest on the National debt.
That’s YOUR money that took you a year to earn and Labor a minute to burn on interest repayments alone.
3 average Aussie’s Income Tax payments go towards this every single minute.
Not on roads, or health care, or nation building projects. Just interest.
Debt owed to the … Reserve Bank of Australia, a government institution. It’s a policy choice to pay back the debt because the Australian government can never default as the currency issuer. All this demonstrates is that you don’t understand how the monetary system works.
Hand the budget to a sensible single mother who struggles to make ends meet but who makes it work and our country will prosper.
Food for thought, wake up Australia.
Great let's make big corporations pay their fair share of tax and get 25% tax on gas exports. That will help solve the debt quick smart!
Exactly Pat we all know that Labor can't add up 🤣 anyway keep up your good work for Cowper. Thanks
Pat Conaghan MP exactly we are ten x first off now, one word....'Labor'...
Soo… we do not need to be wasting any more tax payers money on a great big concrete Ocean Pool at Oxley Beach, then!..💁♀️
This is why this is no longer "the lucky country"
But it is ok for you to spend $20m on an unnecessary ocean pool on Oxley Beach. What a hypocrite!
Pat, the current economic picture has a history, including national debt. So, why don’t you do a critique and criticism of the past 60-70 years. How did we get here ? And what should we do ? You could stop the wars in the Ukraine and Middle East for a start. Then stabilise the weather, so that it’s more consistent & predictable every year. Good, simple, thoughtful.
And it was just the same when you guys were in power so lets not fool us you are both as bad as each other bring on Pauline Hanson's One Nation Party
Taxes and bonds don’t fund the government expenditure. Look at the RBA balance sheet during COVID, they just added money to the governments reserve exchange account. No taxes raised to enable that. The government budget is nothing like a household budget. What household can issue its own currency and then destroy money in circulation through taxation?
Ask the banks why they need to rort everyone……
Thanks .
Jesús Sánchez. (🤝( Greetings to all )🤝)
Another spot on post 👍🏽
Also you do realise that your coalition party is just as guilty for the state of debt then the current government. That 1 trillion dollars didn't come from no where, it's not like the government accumulated that debt since coming to power, it's been growing over time.
Did your mob leave a debt when you’s were ousted??? . Bloody hypocrites . What was the national debt when you mob were in
Same old tired words dished out by the major parties ohhhhhh
That $20 million on those crap fuel ads could have been spent on the interest that these politicians keep racking up for us instead.
The Port Macquarie Ocean Pool have been sitting on a $4million grant for 10 years, collecting interest, while the government pays interest on that money -unused taxpayers money, hasn't advanced the project, causing a big community disagreement, people being rude on their Facebook page. And now they want another $13million grant of Australian taxpayer money to build, plus asking Hastings Council ratepayers to pay for upkeep and maintenance. Protecting Oxley Beach - say NO to the Ocean Pool
Pat, completely over taken by the Zionist lobby and also a racist. No matter what has happened here, they are still Australian citizens. Would you like to be abandoned overseas by our government? That’s what he is going for!
Yes we know, but we also know that you should be supporting ONE NATION, not fighting to allow labor/greens to finish the job on Australia. Australia need to dismantle the 2 party system that has been festering for years and been the cause of so much govt corruption and bad decisions over many years, with no accountability. Australia needs real change, honesty, accountability and common sense, not more of the same.
Keep on top of this corrupt govt Pat, we have to get rid of them.
first flaw in your analysis their me old cock is the fact that the governmnt is not a business or a houshold and owns the currency to start with ,,it dosent borrow outside itself ..their is no national debt its all in house the rba is aprt of the public sector... STOP LYING CHUBBY
WHY ARE AUSTRALIANS EXPECTED TO PAY FOR ISIS BRIDE DECISIONS?
I have declined to comment on this particular issue over the past few days as I genuinely wanted to see the actions that the Labor Government would take, rather than fuelling unnecessary panic amongst the community.
But with the imminent arrival of the ISIS brides and their families now upon us, the time to give ‘benefit of the doubt' has passed.
Enough is enough. The Minister had a number of existing powers at his disposal to keep these individuals off our shores, which he has failed to use. Rather than acting in the best interest of our citizens, we have instead seen complete inaction from a Minister who behaves as though he is a bystander or commentator rather than the ultimate decision maker.
His passivity has culminated in a situation where Australian tax-payers are now likely to have to shoulder the responsibility of keeping our citizens safe.
The Minister for Home Affairs stated 'if they find they're way back to Australia and are found to have committed crimes they will face the full force of the law'. And I need to ask, what does that actually mean? Will they be held in facilities here on our shores? And if so, who is paying for that?
If not, will they walk free until they are found guilty of a crime? We KNOW that they left Australia to marry ISIS members and join the terrorist organisation. We are reasonable to suspect that their children have been radicalised. Are Australians now expected to shoulder the burden of their heinous decisions?
The Australian Government is not a passive bystander in this issue. And the Australian citizens they were elected to serve deserve bet#ISISBridesb#Laborfailsr#australianspayanspay
They could have been refused entry under the prevention of terrorism act surely.. and Should have been.
I agree except that I believe that the minister and the government have been active in facilitating their return despite the security threat they pose and the wishes of the people they are paid to serve.
There were a lot of people at the airport to support them, these people are labour supporters I think.
Please keep the issue of these women & their children in the political arena. We need to know where they are & how they are being supported. They are not entitled to free or Govt subsidised accommodation or welfare, health or education over the Australian population. So please don’t let Labor get away with just bringing them back & letting them access support services.
So well said Pat. We need our elected representatives to face up and be active and accountable
Thank you for speaking up Pat and as a former law enforcement officer you know what you are talking about! Amen
Thankyou. As a tax paying Aussie I don't approve of my tax payments paying for this. If I could withhold paying I would to stand my ground that these women and children aren't welcome back
🎯 100% Pat..they made the choice and the children bear the actions of their mothers. Not Australias responsibility.
Pat, what is the position on those Australians returning after involvement in genocide as part of the IDF?
Genuine question? Why is the 9yr old boy allowed in Australia 🇦🇺 when he was born over there?
You are so right.!!I can’t believe the government is putting the Australian people in danger in order to secure votes. Also not to mention the cost to the tax payers To provide welfare, Centrelink,accommodation,medical and all the other services available. We deserve better.
First stop Centrelink and NDIS 🤬
Well said Pat. Hope you get a full answer from him.
Thank you Pat. We need some of our representatives to do exactly that!
Why don’t the brides go live with Burke and Albo
I. Hope Australians remember this come election time. If we are all still surviving.
Enoch Powell uk in the 60 nobody listened Paulin Hanson the Enoch Powell of Australia Been telling u for years
Well said Pat I stand with you on this matter 😞😞
Make sure you remember this on polling day.
Thank you for voicing how we all feel.
They won’t face the full force of the law, (have to laugh when I say law) there will be a loophole somewhere, bet my life on it, after all this is Australia! 😂🤣
Correct me if I’m wrong, but I thought our Government told these women prior to leaving for Syria, that if they decided to go, & then try to return to Australia, that they wouldn’t be allowed back into the country as it would be seen as a terrorist act, supporting ISIS.
If the kids were born in Syria how did they get an Australian passport?
Mate no argument from me there/ this is such a ridiculous Decision: keep the pressure on 👋
WHY?,because we are running short of terrorists.This move ensures plenty of breeding stock.
The Reserve Bank Governor is warning that government spending is fuelling inflation and a key contributor to the RBA decision to increase interest rates for already stretched mortgage holders fighting to keep a roof overhead.
But instead of taking responsibility, Jim Chalmers is still trying to deny it.
Labor’s policies are costing every Australian more.
That’s why The Nationals have a plan to cut immigration, dump net zero, adopt our Cheaper, Better, Fairer energy plan that uses every type of energy and we also need to end the rorting in the NDIS.
Our spending must be focussed on nation building and preservation. Not irresponsible cash splashes and vanity projects.
Its not rocket science. Is the pope catholic!
They are all missing in each other's pockets.
You are very fixated on this but the actual data shows one of the biggest contributors is transport sector costs. Wonder where that came from.
Seems to me, Air, that listening to Reserve Bank announcements is the least we can expect of you.
I wonder how much longer Bullock will be the RBA governor. She points out that the Grubbyment is spending to much.
Of course the Treasurer will blame something or someone else for his errors. Take no responsibility, same for the PM.
Michele Bullock said there would have been no rate rise if Trump didn't start a war in the Middle East.
Why did the reserve bank keep interest low during covid while the then government spent at unprecedented levels
Perhaps it's time the RBA had an overhaul of their methods of inflationary management. Patently, hiking interest rates which in turn hurts the most vulnerable in our society, is not working as intended.
And on the subject of inconsistency: Will the AFP parade the arrest of the ISIS women at Sydney Airport today - the way they paraded BRS??
Good plan. Keep tied to oil & overseas wars & just to top that off $100s billions on a nuclear policy that will take decades, if ever. No wonder that One Nation is taking over from you nongs.
Albo has just given Fiji $30 Million 👎🏿
No way!! Really?? The spending by the Gov is adding to inflataton?? That cant be right cause Ol'mate Chalmers doesnt believe it.. Like crap it is.. As we know, spend big and increase wages which leads to more spending what does that do?? Raises bloody inflation!!! I said it when they promised to increase wages, itll cause big problems... Unfortunately, the alternative now in opposition will need to curb spending and cut jobs which as we know has its own issues.. Pat Conaghan MP, maybe try and get something passed like sort of compulsory Victory Gardens from the 1940's, or the English allotment system on Crown land? Allow collection of firewood from crown land with propper permits with Federal over-riding States Letting people keep chooks and the like (resttrictions for 4 legged large livestock in small areas tho) Sigh its going to be a long journey to climb outa this hole thats been created by a certain person in the nthn hemispere and at home..
How much did dumping the French sub contract cost and what are the present odds on getting an AUKUS sub? There’s spending money and there’s wasting money which you lot are pretty good at. Ex LCDR RAN asking…….
At last a Bank governor with guts. They'll be out to get her now.
They don’t give a flying fuck because they don’t live on 80-90k per year. Maybe they should wind back their wages and we would soon see changes then.
Quoting the unbiased Daily Telegraph? Facts matter!
Actually, blaming the RBA’s rate hikes solely on the LABOUR government spending is a massive oversimplification that ignores the real data. If you look at the research, the primary drivers of inflation aren't just 'public spending' they are RECORD CORPORATE PROFITS and external global pressures. Major corporations, energy companies, and banks have been posting multi-billion dollar profits while hiking prices well above the actual increase in their costs. This 'profit push inflation' means we are paying more at the checkout not because of the government, but because big business is protecting its bottom line at our expense. the RBA raises the cash rate to curb demand, but it doesn't account for the fact that high prices are being driven by supply chain issues and international energy markets. Stop falling for the media's easy scapegoats and look at where the money is actually going, it’s flowing straight to the top of the corporate ladder, not into the average Australian's pocket. It’s time to stop believing the media spin and start holding big business accountable for the inflation they are helping to fuel.
You'll never get into government in a 100 years and you won't even stand at next election
Give those 2 both, led aspirin between the eyes....
He's a moron can't add up
Fuck the cants in Canberra and the rba rodents
We were in a mess before the Middle East conflict , Labor has to stop spending , stop sending money to other countries & causes & pay down the debt here - it’s bad enough right here & now , what a disaster is being left to our children & grandchildren - ‘ you will own nothing & you will be happy ‘ - Labor has got to go - Anthony AlbaneseJim Chalmers MP
Trump and his America First policy and the war in the Middle East is responsible for the destabilisation of economies around the world.
