We have people that live in rural remote communities. They live in Indigenous communities in Queensland up to the Torres Strait and we have an obligation, a duty as a federation to ensure that all of these communities, all of these families have access to health.

I know in my state, I am leading innovation and we need to diversify the economy. But you can't have innovation unless you have education.

We always sat down as a family to watch the federal budget, even as a young child.

You have to govern like you've got a majority. It doesn't matter whether it's one seat, five or 10 seats.

I still do get all these letters from people saying they are not pronouncing my name correctly!

I think I'm pragmatic.
